Seishun Buta Yaro wa Bunny Girl-senpai no Yume wo Minai

But you have to also watch the movie, only after seeing both will it come together as something greater than an above average and moderately unique anime..

And you thought it's something degenerate.

This is the review of both the anime series and movie.

A naughty title serves as a disguise of a sci-fi yet sad look at ages of growing teens. As part of Erikson's stage of development, Identity vs Role confusion is where teenagers struggle to find out who they are and accept their characteristics. The use of quantum physics and relativity principles were brilliant and reflected the common insecurities that many had to face. Although there is romcom and romance, both the series and movie required audience to figure out the phenomena and then think about the consequences of these insecurities. This led to the main theme of the series, which is to recognize one's own emotions and insecurities and accept them in order to move forward.

The movie did not follow this theme as much, but instead aimed for more drama and emotions using its complicated time travel plot. It took me quite a bit to figure out, but still it was an emotional ride with shocking twists that hit me like a minivan.

The animation was just beautiful. The characters looked great, especially their eyes. Also, the drawings of the surroundings and the ocean scenes were breathtaking.

The interaction between characters were oddly hilarious. The way they talked to each other nonchalantly with innuendos got me cracked up (step on my foot please bunny senpai). The romance between the rascal and the senpai was not overwhelming, but subtle and sweet. The movie served to solidify their strong romance.

Overall, a surprisingly fascinating and emotional anime. Series 8.5/10. Movie 8/10.

Trust me, there is no minute in this anime will make you feel bored. The characters were likeable, there were a heartbreaking moments, the script was fantastic.it's a story for the people that you care about and love, with some science fiction, you have to check it out.

This show on the outset would appear to be another piece of weeb trash. And that's intentional, this shows title and cover are literally clickbait, and that's what drew me to the series, but what this show is, is something truly spectacular. Every single aspect about this show from its art to its plot are masterfully crafted to deliver the most emotionally powerful experice of any late 2018 anime. I cried multiple times throughout this series, and I am in no way ashamed to admit that. The characters and their relationships are very realistic and how they interact is just enjoyable to watch, especially with Mai and Sakuta, who have such amazing chemistry and play off the other exceptionally well. The other characters and the problems that afflict them are also explored in depth, with their problems being manifested into abilities or changes to them or their surroundings. This is manifestation is what the show calls "adolescence/puberty syndrome," and its inclusion creates a small mystery element that gives the characters time to shine and truly express the issues plaguing them. It would also be cruel of me not to mention the amazing voicework done for this show, as all of it is excellent, same can be said of the art which is clean and beautifully shaded and colored. I completely, unironically adore this show, and the select few who I've made watch this show, shared my feelings. If you enjoy slice of life, mystery, romance, or anime at all, you owe it to yourself to watch this show.

I started watching this series thinking that it'll be rom com anime but it is much more than that. We might feel really weird watching this because our logic won't be able to keep up with it but as it progresses we can understand the message the series is trying to convey. It deals with high school bullying and the herd mentality of people. The story is about a high school boy Sakuta who falls in love with a senior girl Mai. Soon Sakuta finds that Mai is also going through the conditions that he once went through. So he decides to help her and they develop strong feelings for each other while dealing their problems together.

Overall it is a good series to watch, but remember that this is not a science fiction(though may feel like one). So enjoy watching it with a open heart and mind.
