I am glad that I watched this.
I would recommend this to others.
I have watched this once, subtitled. I have only watched the anime.
I may watch this again.
---- Positives ----
This series is simple and light-hearted.
All the ideas presented in this series are pleasantly simple. The plot obstacles are all minor and are quickly overcome in simple ways. The only two long-lasting obstacles are overcome at the end of the series, and neither of them particularly inhibit the main character.
The art is nice and there's a great mix of scenery.
When it comes to scenery, the characters are actually hardly ever in the classroom. There's such a great mix of scenery that it's actually related to the negative below.
---- Negatives ----
More confectionery-related events could have happened with the number of episodes that this series got.
Although each episode was short, the episode count was high. I feel like not enough confectionery-related events happened for that high episode count. It would have been nice if the series dedicated a few minutes to the details behind making sweets - at least enough to make it interesting to watch the scenes where the characters do eventually make sweets. The series starts off seeming like it's going to be all about sweets, but this isn't the case beyond the first few episodes.
Opportunity for cancel: Not sure. School anime series rarely show the details of schoolwork, so why should this series? The difference, however, is that this is a specialized school and "Pâtisserie" is in the series title. This series definitely revolves around the school being a confectionery school - that's an important part of the series - so I expected the series to talk about sweets a little more throughout the entire series instead of bunching it all up in the beginning.
