Story - 3: Where should I behin with? When I started watching it, it was all fine and interesting, I would say even fun. That was till episode 6. After that the story became repetetive, one tease after another, useless scenes as those with the 3 guys, which didnt even have the slithest mean of comedy. Just useless at all. The story is not connected at all, just some random events happening.
You would think that the main thing would be the relationship between the two main characters? Wrong. All its happening in the whole anime could be seen trough 1-6 episodes. The whole story is about how Misaki realises she loves Usui.
Art - 6: The art is somewhat decent, I really like how Misaki is drawn, but I guess this style of characters is not mine. I could say this is the best part of the anime.
Sound - 2: Most of the time I didnt even realise there was sound, the Opening is annoying as fuck and i try to skip it ASAP. The best song would be the one they play at 'happy' moments, but after a while it gets annoying.
Characters - 2: Basically no depth at the characters. Tho thats the good sides. All the relationships between the characters are bullshit, there is no progress, no depth at all. The characters that we had in the begining are the same as in the end. The only stuff that caught my eyes were the student's oppinion of the president. But I though i watched a romance? Where is the focus going? The romance side starts to get annoying at some point, given the progress stops at episode 6, only annoying teases occur, with both weakly said tsundere characters. Or 'endure' as they call themselfs. Thats not even funny. Is this teaser or romance anime?
Enjoyment - 4: After the first culmination in episode 6 I though: Yes! They will become couple, have sweet moments, then marry or smth, with ofcourse the respectful problems and plot twists, ending in the second, bigger culmination in the end (with marriage or smth). But since the characters dont become couple (?) the anime gets back in the state of episode 1. There is no surprise or interest factors, since you have seen all. Oddly enough, there is second culmination at the end, being what the first one should have been. This anime could be describen with a diagram going up, then sharply down, and after 20 episodes it goes up again. With every single episode i my wish to continue the anime dropped.
Overall - 3: As I said in the previous paragraph, i am greatly disappointed in the anime. Just a dry, streightforward ploth with nothing happening, supposed to be relationship advance, but insread shit stick filled with unfunny moments. We dont even see a couple in such anime. To be honest, such a plot would have been great with other story on top, maybe being some kind of action-fantasy plot, which would take the focus off the romance. And the romance would occur every now and then, gradually advancing the relationship. Such animes which manage to do so are real masterworks, since you are happy to see the characters together, but thats not the only thing happening and you dont get bored. Such anime is Bakuman. Imagine it with only romance, and the manga drawing side be just as a secondary plot which is shown every now and then as a progress with just any regular hobby? That would just be total newbiework. Just as this anime. Dont waste your time - thats 10 hours.
