Hige o Soru. Soshite Joshikousei o Hirou.

In the first episode, I really thought this would be another throw-away fan service series. Oh how wrong I was!

This is a really good anime, touching on some serious themes that are usually brushed over in other series. And it does it well! It's emotional and heartwarming, has interesting characters and the music and animation is stellar. It's an all around pleasure to watch, and a must watch for any slice of life fan.

Such an amazing anime with such greater inner meanings and a valuable lesson for everybody. Must watch.

This anime has a nice message, though you might be put off by the first episodes, it's nice at the end. It's a simple story about caring, honesty and valor, really simple, but still nice to watch. A man takes in a teenager to live with him and then life lessons are taught.

What I think is a let down and I really hope anime story writers could fix this, is that there are few good slice of life animes about adult life, this one still isn't fully in the adult spectrum. I wish it could at least have taken an approach closer to Usagi Drop and Barakamon, which are similar. Animes have the "fan service" thing and I really wish they could cut the hentai crap out. There's definitely a market for animes which are heartwarming and focused on adult themes, with very little supply.

Well Higehiro is my favorite anime of this season. It is undoubtedly Worth watching even if slice of life is not your thing mainly due to the unique and amazing character of the protagonist Yoshida. His kind-hearted, caring soul and his selflessness are features we can even greater appreciate due to the fragile with a tragic past co-protaginist Sayu. Overall it is a as the title states a wholesome story.

This quickly became my comfort anime. It's definitely underrated and worth watching! I love Sayu and Yoshida's relationship dynamics. The plot is very good and I really hope there is a season 2. Would love to see where the series could go.
