Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (8/12 eps)
After hearing the intro for this anime, I was expecting a lighthearted, fun, and interesting show. Although I did get this, many factors that comprise this show make it a lot worse than it actually could have been.

Story 3/10: Not much to expect story-wise from a show about girls working in a cafe. Overall, not a good story, but this show was never meant to have a deep story anyways. Because of this, the story of the show will not have a major part in the overall score of this review.

Art 7/10: The characters are very easy to look at and each have their own design. The differing color schemes in each character make the character designs somewhat unique. The backgrounds for this show are usually bright and well detailed. However, the art can get a bit lazy regarding background characters, as they are not detailed or shaded in the slightest.

Sound 8/10: The OP is very catchy, and has spread across the internet of late. The background songs are also well-fitting for the scenarios.

Character 3/10: The characters in this show are very copy-paste, with no development what-so-ever. They are all very standard and stereotypical characters with little to them outside of their "roles" in the cafe. Maika is an aspiring world-traveler, who is looking for a job, but cannot get one because of her "evil-glare", which is made to be much worse than it actually is. Because of this she is the "sadist" in the cafe, who is somehow bad at her job and doesn't do it half of the time. Kaho is the "gamer-girl" who wastes all her money and time playing games and is a tsundere at the cafe. Nothing much else there. Mafuyu is the college-age midget, who beats up on Dino and plays the "little sister" role. Miu is an author who works at the cafe for "inspiration" in the doujinshi she writes. She plays the big sister. Dino is the foreign manager pervert guy, who lusts over Maika every episode and barely does his job. Koyo is the cuckold, girl-on-girl liking cook, who is afraid of women. Hideri is the idol, who has more secrets than I or anybody else wanted to know. (HE'S THE TRAP, WHY DO THEY HAVE A TRAP IN THIS SHOW) Overall not much else to any of these characters, making them quite one dimensional and boring.

Enjoyment 5/10: Although I do not like the characters or the story of this show, the sound and fanservice make it a somewhat enjoyable show for what it's worth.

Overall 5/10
