Okay, let me ask a question, when did the last time you, as a single, felt so frustrated because an anime? (don't lie my comrade, I had your six) This anime basically told everyone, hey go get some girl to date with, why waste your time watching cute couple while you're still single?
God Bless for every one of us that still single and can't find girl to date with
Okay, enough blabbing to the review.
At the first episode two character that polar opposite each other was met at park during heavy pour, for the first episode it didn't sold me because I know so much anime with this type of setting where the protagonist is gloomy and the FMC is popular character, in the end it would be garbage Romcom, yet it almost make me want to throw myself to nearby cliff because how pitiful I am.
Amane Fujimiya, the main protagonist with your typical gloomy and rude personality, he also can't clean his room and can't cook well (in short, it was YOU & ME) but at one point after he gave his umbrella to Mahiru Shiina, the female protagonist, he got sick, at this moment his encounter with Mahiru Shiina continue.
When things getting good for two of them, finally something about Mahiru situation was revealed, and yet again, the moment where I thought the protagonist would definitely messed up with dirty jokes in fact he played his role so good that make me smile all the time, this anime probably would easily went to top of the chart if the pacing wasn't being cut off from original sources. Although the pacing kinda weird, yet it still works out very well, probably because the source material was full of stuff that backing up each other as a story.
After several time continue, so their interaction one another also developt, what make me stay for this anime, is how she depicted as well mannered and well dressed female characters, unlike many other Romcom with ecchi scene, in here I almost didn't see it at all, in fact there's a moment where I think 'ah! there is the fan service moment' where Fujimiya start giving piggyback for Mahiru, yet he didn't react like disgusting perverted at all.
The main protagonist personality was likable because how not thick headed dense he is, but is how he trying to considerate toward Mahiru Shiina, even at some point where Mahiru start getting closer to his personal space, he still respect her personal space and trying not to do anything that would ruined their relationship, on the other hand, Mahiru Shiina, she.... erm, cute creature that needed to be petted and hugged every single time, I guess?
Which led me to the bottom of the ocean floor after enduring 7 full episode of suffering and how painful reality in our world. Also, don't worry mate, if you're suffering just like I do, we will make it, we will fine because being single doesn't mean we're can't find girl to date with, right? God Bless for us
From the anime quality, I wouldn't say that this anime was great, there's some hiccups here and there at the animation that sometimes quite irritating to see, but I forgive it for stay consistent with the story, otherwise I would definitely drop this. The sound effect sometimes can be perfect for the mood, but sometimes it didn't work out well, the music though, the first opening it didn't catch my attention at all, yet the ending manage to caught me off guard completely, twice actually.
The anime wasn't perfect in term of how quality it produce, but completely worth to watch because how fluffy their interaction was, in fact, I suggest you to NOT watching this if you're hate being in relationship because this anime would surely make you want to have a girlfriend, a girl with kind heart that accept you for yourself, a girl that doesn't complain about everything and always disrespectful at your personal space, (don't worry mate, we're the same)
So to make this story short, this anime so painful to watch as a single, to make matter worse, anime girls doesn't exist in reality world, oh lord please go easy for this poor soul.
