This was the anime I watched that left me with the most mixed feelings. How can they do something so good and so bad at the same time? Even though I really like the production company Jumondo, for the work of art that is Acchi Kocchi, in this one they did a medicore job.
Not saying that the anime is bad, far from it, but it is a tremendous lost potential. I don't know if I can complain too much since they took milk from stone. They took an unknown light novel and did a very decent job, the sad thing is knowing that the anime could have been INFINITELY better if they had tried a little harder, I really like the style of the anime but I think the art direction left a lot to wish, lazy CG, a generic ending and other things took away the shine of this anime, I loved the character of Yumiella Dolkness, in my mid-season review I even said that I would name it after my daughter, but the character construction is executed In many basic ways, they could have done better.
The plot progression is another weak point of the work, I believe there are episodes that would make sense if the anime had 24 episodes, an end-of-season drama and a silly episode about eating cakes have the same screen time, the romance was also extremely rushed. I know that the plot has enormous potential and several light novels that were once unknown like Steins;Gate had perfect execution. I'm sad because I'm almost certain that it's impossible to have a second season since the ending was made precisely because it was an ending, but the good thing is that from now on I'll be following the light novel. That said, I still think that the anime had much greater potential than it was used for.
