However, even tho I am not too sensitive to this topic unlike some others, I really did not find the shota thing too appealing. Like, he's obviously underage. And normalizing such occurrences (in the anime) is sort of... idk.. it just bothered me.
But, I got what I wanted. Some scenes are actually hilarious, others are just overused. Like the nose bleed is getting boring now...
Anyways, story: 7/10
Not terrible. Like, if we removed the ecchi, the story itself is quite impactful (boy loses house, stays at a dorm as a worker, etc etc). And the characters HAVE personality. They have their quirks and slowly but surely there is a character development among each and every character.
EDIT after ep5: It's starting to become a supernatural type story(?) What? I wouldn't be too much of a fan of that. The SoL was alright imo, but we'll see how they do this.
Art: 9/10
I'm specifically talking about character designs. Holy molly they're hot. Now, again, this show is not to be taken as a serious one, it's literally a light mood, with not much to criticize it for cuz it does what it's supposed to do. I can't blame it for "recurring jokes from the same character" blah blah blah cuz it's main orientation is towards ecchi. And the character ARE ecchi, I can't wait to see all the doujins lmao ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Edit from Episode 4: Today's jiggle physics was OP lmao
Edit from Episode 5: There is animation, surprisingly. Like, normally anime like these have still frames panning around but no, we're getting pretty levelled animation. Not top tier, obv, but not bad at all.
Edit from Episode 6: Boi that fight scene was better than most generic shonen anime
Sound: 8/10
The opening is fire, I can't stress that enough. It's even better with the lyrics. I'd make my friends listen to it but the opening itself is so questionable that... um.. yea. (´。＿。｀)
The bg music is sometimes irrelevant but it's alright. The ending is also okayish.
Character: 7/10
Yea... so.... Okayish characters... They're hot, but... everything just feels so wrong about them, kid included. But on this episode, they felt somewhat more natural and humane. I especially liked Frey's POV.
EDIT after ep4: It's still a 5/10 for me rn, might go low or high depending on the next ep. But I can see some chances of improvement.
EDIT after ep5: Yea, no great change.. Might go down at this point.
EDIT after ep6: Today's ep was pretty tamed and well delivered. And the story also seems to be going in a direction now.
Enjoyment: 8/10
I mean, I got what I wanted. Some ecchi scenes with an alright plot. I'm not expecting the new To Love RU or High School DXD. This is alright, and "I've seen enough, I'm satisfied!"
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Edit from ep4: I loved today's button gun scene 🥴😂
Edit from ep5: Hot spring episode, always welcome.
Edit from ep6: Beach episode and no ecchi scene; wasted opportunity.
Overall: 8/10
It's meh but I don't plan on dropping it anytime soon so I'll keep it at 8 for now. I mentioned something along the lines of "I'll decide after the next episode(5th) cuz it looks promising" but it's not really THAT good? I'll still keep it at 8 tho BECAUSE I am not expecting a GOOD plot/story. If I am getting what I want, that means I'm enjoying it. So 8/10 for now.
TL;DR: I came here for the ecchi, I got the ecchi. I've seen enough, I'm satisfied.
