Weirdly amazing is the only way I could describe this show which is why I'm writing about it for my first review. It's weird because I never get hyped for the next episode unlike other shows but when I watch it I feel calm and relaxed, and after finishing each episode I'm always left in a good mood making it amazing.

Story: 8
This anime doesn't really have a main storyline but it's how the characters, mainly Tanaka, deal with everyday life and events hence being a Slice of Life show. Because of the great characters the story for each episode doesn't fall out of place. I guess the only progression you'd find is how Tanaka finds measures in becoming more and more listless no matter the situation and its fun just to watch him try.

Art: 9
The art style is simple yet aesthetically pleasing which fits right in the show. The simplicity creates an atmosphere that personifies Tanaka's personality. It was well thought out and is beautiful to watch at least from my perspective.

Sound: 9
The music also fits right in being 'lazy-like' and calm. You could probably even use the OST for your sleep playlist.
Now the OP is pretty good, it being the only OP that I don't skip for each episode this season which is saying something.
The actors did a good job in portraying their characters especially Tanaka's VA who really captured what a listless person would be like.

Character: 10
These characters are the most original I've seen in a while except for Miyano (the hyper-active, child-like dwarf) and Echizen (a tsundere in a way) but those are supporting characters and they're what make this show more interesting since Tanaka interacts with a flip-side version of him.
Tanaka himself is very creative when it comes to looking for ways to becoming more and more listless and Ohta is an obliging person who always takes care of Tanaka but sometimes misunderstands situations. This basically tells you that the show can be quite funny at times.

Enjoyment: 10
The characters' interactions with each other are enjoyable to watch especially the main characters. You don't really feel as if you need more after each episode since there isn't a storyline as I've mentioned before but when a new episode comes out you'll always have the need to watch it.
Knowing that this show is over makes me want more, ironically. I usually just expect new episodes to appear sometime each week but since there aren't any I can't help but miss it.
Each episode is like a dose of relaxation that you need each week; almost like a drug taken in moderation. It is a masterpiece in its own right.
