Story 10/10
The story is just an ordinary story about schoolgirls do their daily life. You watch them talking, goofing, and drinking tea every episode. Nothing special, thats what you think at first until you finished the show. When it ends, you realize its all important. Because you watch their daily life, you know what kind of people are they. You know their favourite food, you know their favourite band, you know their personality. Without realizing your bond get more deeper and deeper with them, you feel like you are there befriend with them. Being bestfriend with them. There are no people who like to be separated from their bestfriend, and thats why i cried at the last episode.
Art 10/10
Its really fair for a decade old anime. If you compare it with nowadays anime, yeah its not that pretty. But remember that this anime is from 2010. They're really ahead of its time. Every character drawn beautifully, and so is their background, their club room, their school, and their house. While its not all perfect, you can see some scene looks weird. I'm still gonna give it a great score, because it radiates a nostalgic mood.
Sound 10/10
I really like the song they produce, especially that OP and ED song. Because the anime is 20+ episode long, we get 2 OP and 2 ED song. If you think about it, the seiyuu is multitasking. They sing and do the VA. I also see a video on YouTube showing them practicing for a live show. I have some of the song in my playlist. Their song is so memorable, because they sing it in a situation i will never forget. So when i hear some of their song, I always remember the scene and it really adds to the experience. Oh yeah don't forget about their BGM too, it is also really fitting with the situation.
Character 10/10
This is the best segment in the entire anime. Like i said above, we are like bestfriend here. Thanks to the staff that makes all the characters likeable. This season will give you more in-depth about their personality and life. Every character fit so perfectly. Like we have this lazy and childish girls, but she had a mature and hardworking sister to make it a perfect match. Not only the character personality, but also the character design is really great. They all drawn so cutely, sometimes I even forgot they're a 3rd year. But I'm not complaining since me myself is also a 3rd year.
Enjoyment 10/10
One of the best friendship anime out there. Lots of other shows have tragic moment like people dying and shit like that, but watching a few high school student just broke me. I can relate to them because right now I'm a 3rd year too. Beside their friendship story, you'll also get a good laugh everytime you watch an episode. I will definitely rewatch this series in a dub.
With all that being said, should you watch this anime? Yes. This show is slice of life genre at its finest. I watch some of the episode with my friend that didn't really into slice of life, and he likes it. This anime also encourage me to learn playing guitar, but that thing is expensive. So it will be a while when I can finally start to learn it. Thats all i can say about this anime. Thank you for reading my review.
