My Dress-Up Darling

Is this peak romance?

Another season another romcom to put a smile on my face every week. Although it's not the best that I have watched, My Dress-Up Darling still shows why romcom is one of the best anime genres.

The relationship between two main characters with completely opposite social personalities was adorable. The unique element of this show was beautifully mixing cosplaying and making hina dolls, two seemingly unrelated hobbies. And just like other romcom, the more I watched the more I'm dying to see that peak romance moment. The show did a great job at making you excited while teasing you at the same time. There were a good deal of moments that became heated very fast.

Overall, a hilarious and adorable romcom. 8-8.5/10.

I don't think I have ever spent so much time screenshoting and screen recording an anime as much as I have spent on My Dress-Up Darling.

A album was created on my phone library just for this goated anime.

What a wild journey full of laughter and emotions🖤 Marin is and will be our best girl in anime history.

We are people of culture and we are not ashamed.

Thanks 🙏🏼

After watching the first two episodes, I find it a guilty pleasure. The story is the common concept of a shy socially awkward person becoming friends with a good-looking popular person. The guy is a shy doll-maker and the girl wants to cosplay, so she recruits hm to make costumes for her. There are plenty of opportunities to show her body and for them to get embarrassed. The artwork is good and it has the potential to be very popular.

Goji is extremely talented but lacks self esteem. Kitagawa is extremely beautiful but is also kind and empathic. Throw into the mix their respective obsessions and you have a heart warming tale, sure to make you laugh, and nod sagely at the deeper undercurrent of two kindred souls learning to see that which lovely and wonderfull in each other.

I've almost completed the manga and it's really good. The story is simple but heartwarming and the characters are really likable particularly Marin & Wakana. The cosplaying cloths are superb. 8.3/10.
