Kokoro Connect

This slice of life makes you think hard about the world you live in. Every character has a beautiful backstory, and there is a beautiful love triangle that spills out through the course of the story. Each arc in the story shows a darker side to humanity and sometimes their good sides, too. After watching it, I realized how much I could relate to every single one of them, and I can say it changed me for the better!

Intensity :2 out of 5 8. Connectivity : 2 out of 5 9. Ending : 2 out of 5 ..................................................... Series Grade : C+

The storyline, plot, animation, character development; everything is done perfectly. The romance wasn't too strong but was still decent.

The best thing about it is the platonic relationship and friendship between this small but interesting friend group. This anime has finest friendship development.

What makes it even better is they deal with relatable problems in their life and slowly get to solve them by the end of the show.

Even the ending was good ( I don't get why people won't like this ending) Overall better than Bunny girl Senpai cause of the friendship development which we don't get to see any most other animes.

DON'T LET THE LOW RATEINGS FOOL YOU.

I am writing this review for both the main show and the 4 extra episodes that actually conclude this show at the end.

First of all: inaba is definitely best girl, without a doubt.

The art in this show is good, nothing amazing, but definitely slightly above average. The music was actually one of the better parts of this show, the ost is really good even if the op and ed are just ok. The characters feel really deep and real, and the way they interact is mostly believable and fun. The ending is also the best thing that could have happened too, and I liked it (I'll just say one thing: inaba is best girl).

However, you will only really like this show if you like people being sad, depressed, angry, and stupid. Like, what THE HECK was up with Iori in the last 4 episodes? It was a big pity party where Iori was being self centered and stupid, and I ended up hating her character. Everyone kept being stupid and mean, and no one liked anyone else for like half the series! I can see why people liked this show, because the parts that are done well are really good and the parts where no one hates each other are actually pretty fun and interesting getting to see the characters react to stuff.

However, imagine you only have time for one episode of anime after a long day of work, and you are in the middle of kokoro connect. You get to see a bunch of people shouting at each other and being depressed for 23 minutes straight! Doesn't that sound like a fun escape from reality? Yay! I'm someone who can appreciate drama if it's done right (violet evergarden is one of two 10/10 anime out of the around one hundred I've seen) but I just hate it when the drama makes it so the characters can't interact or so that they hate each other.

My least favorite part of the series by far was the first three episodes of the special, because nothing good happens, Inori is just feeling depressed and really mean and isnt telling anyone why (and it turns out to be a really stupid reason), but at least we get the ending that we deserve after sitting through this crap.

This anime made me so frustrated some times, but it has its funny, heartwarming, or well done moments, so I'm still giving it a score as high as a 6.

Started watching it and became delightful. Story is great, plot too. Only thing that irritated me is that yori nagase's character on the last few episodes . It was irritating like hell. Though it did overcome in the last episode. Overall it was surprisingly marvelous.
