A romantic comedy about Aharen -- a speck-sized girl with a quiet voice and inability to grasp social conventions -- and Raidou -- a boy with an overactive imagination and a permanently frozen face. It has a serene, quiet and heartwarming atmosphere and an adorable relation between the two main leads.

The jokes are hit-or-miss, and sometimes repetitive (yes, we get it, Aharen is good at some games and bad at others). Particularly grating is the character of Toubaru-sensei, who is only ever used for a single joke: she sees Raido and Aharen acting romantic, she immediately nosebleeds, roll on snare drum, curtains.

Unfortunately, despite being mostly innocent and lovable, the series features some questionable anime tropes: an elementary-school girl accuses Aharen of being a "shotacon", Aharen's little brother likes dressing up in girl clothes for whatever reason, and then there's the weird relationship between Aharen and the girl Mitsuki, which isn't sure if it wants to be friendship or a semi-sapphic yandere obsession.

Despite its faults, the series is ultimately enjoyable as a light, heartwarming comedy.
