Story is easy to follow because there aren't like big plot or something. Just some schoolgirl doing a part time job to go overseas. The shenanigan Cafe Stile produce is so entertaining to not make it a boring anime, considering this anime premise is not engaging. Every episode filled with hillarious moment. And the joke delivery is on point. I never gone an episode without laughing. One problem tho. The only thing that makes the story looks like progressing is when they introduce a character. So when an episode doesnt introduce characters, it feels like just exist to fill the 12 episode count. Because there are hardly any meaningful story at all.
The series also does a great job of introducing the other characters and their roles at the café. Each character has their own unique personality and backstory, and the series does a great job of exploring them. The anime OP point that out. Everyone except the cook have 2 personality. What I love about it even more is they're not perfect. So we can relate to them, its a hospitality job after all. Sometimes their true personality slipped out in front of customers. Always interesting to watch them interact with each other in the backrooms, their rich personality and the context given. The series also does a good job of balancing the comedy with more serious and heartfelt moments, making it an enjoyable watch throughout.
The animation is of course a good quality, with detailed and expressive character designs. The voice acting need to be praised too, with the actors bringing the characters to life in a charming and humorous way. Not to mention they also sing the OP and ED song. Both of it are in my playlist now. Most of the time, its all takes place inside a room. And when they go outside. They didn't miss the opportunity to make the background so beautiful.
Really enjoy this anime, definitely will rewatch this in near future. Oh yeah and read the manga too. This anime is so iconic with that OP. There are tons of people creating memes with various scene and characters, which makes it even more popular. I decided to watch this anime because me myself get my first job too. Although it is not a part time work. I can relate and relax watching it after my 12 hour shift. Thats all I wanna say about this anime. Thank you for reading my review.
