Tanaka-kun wa Itsumo Kedaruge (to be shorten as TwIK) and Natsume Yuujinchou will be the two anime I have no idea how and why it would attract me, someone who likes fantasy and action over calming stories. While Natsume Yuujinchou has fantasy in it, but TwIK is a school life anime that features something that would happen in real life by the eyes of a listless person name Tanaka-kun.

There is not much of a plot progression apart of Tanaka-kun having to face more and more things that requires energy to do. Well, he once said he didn't want to be a main character, and sadly he is now. It's a simple comedy anime designed to make the viewers laugh and feel calm, away from the rowdiness of action-packed and psychological anime.

The characters does not grow in any way, apart of several female characters growing in love to Tanaka-kun. This anime deserves a harem tag, for Tanaka-kun does not even need to do anything to make them fall for him. Sadly, to the girls' despair, Tanaka-kun have found his perfect waifu before meeting them, though the word "waifu" might be wrong to use in such situations. The characters are unique in appearance and personality wise.

Art-wise it was light and eye pleasing. Sounds are okay. Not much to say about this two.

I have quite the enjoyment of watching this. While I do not laugh on their comedic moments, I enjoy every moment of the anime. I have no idea why. Was it due to the anime being related to something I have done in high school? While not too memorable, I believe people have done something stupid in high school that makes it hilarious to remember. This light-hearted anime manage to keep me going as I watch it every week, surprisingly over some action anime.

Overall it was good. While it was simple, something manages to pull me to enjoying it. I could not explain why, for I have not find the answer to Natsume Yuujinchou's charm as well. Maybe you could try it and tell me what was its charm that allows me to continue watching it all this time.
