Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu

In the first episode, you think you know what this is going to be and the personalities of the characters. As it goes, they become people you are super invested in. The series' description is a bit misleading and once you get to the 4th episode you start to get very passionate about the story.

It doesn't drag on too long and cause too much frustration, just enough to notice but then you get a payoff in many forms. The show's humor does mostly revolve around teenage situations that are actually realistic and not just obnoxious "shock" toilet-humor.

I started watching because I kept seeing it highly rated and wanted to see if it was niche or if it was for everyone. This is for everyone and its better than it has any right to be.

It actually builds the relationships in a believable way. The two main characters are multi-layered and not just one note. Every dimension to their personality has a slight variance and sometimes even contradiction, which adds to the believability and speaks to the incredible writing for the show.

I never before watched anime shows or romantic stuff either but this one was different!!!

The characters' style, the script, the flirting scenes.. everything were much better than expected and I really want a season 3!!!

Btw, I think it's cute how Yamada is the taller one.

Despite that Ichi refused to believe Yamada liked him even tho how many signs she was giving to him the whole time over and over again I think it was funny how he figured out he was wrong.

His sister was quite funny, she looks like him in appearance!!

Yamada's dad also seems cool for wanting Ichi to be his gaming buddy!

This anime is teaches you how to love yourself and how a relationship should be actually like mutual understanding of each other feelings, emotions and taking care of each other etc. In starting it looks like an common romance type anime but soon as it goes will give so many surprises.

This anime is wholesome emotions, I just watched for timepass but become my one of my most fav anime. I already watched most of the episodes of season 2 multiple times and I am very excited for season 3 and others seasons. Really can't wait for season 3 to come.... Thank you for creating such a wonderful anime.

Boku no kokoro no yabai yatsu

I have seen many animes in my lifetime but never felt emotionally connected with any but it all changed when I first saw Boku no kokoro no yabai yatsu.

But first, to let you know I am not interested in romance-type stories I prefer animes like Monster, Dragon Ball, Naruto, Death note, etc

I just started watching this Boku no Kokoro no yabai yatsu just because I did not have any interesting anime to watch and I was bored. But when I saw it I felt nostalgia, and then felt the joy and pain all at the same time as it made me think about my feelings when I was in school and college. I believe everyone has gone through an infatuation or love stage in their life and this anime tries to make you recall that stage trust me it gives you a whole different experience which I believe will leave a soft-hearted person with tears of both joy and regret.

This anime is so wonderful, the storyline is so grounded.

I started watching this anime maybe at 12am midnight and I finished the whole season on the go, it literally took my sleep away and I could not sleep at all after watching it.

Eventually, I ended up watching from the beginning once again on the next day to understand each detail.

And the second season is also so amazing and can't wait to see more new episodes.

I thank the writer Norio Sakurai who wrote such a beautiful anime. I admire her work from the heart.

And after watching the anime I for the first time in my life started reading the manga and its the Boku no kokoro no yabai yatsu manga.

Season 1 rating: 7/10 Season 2 rating: 9/10

Review for Season 2:

Wow.

This is a beautiful romance. I'm awestruck by how good this anime was, because for me, it's probably up there among the best romance anime ever.

What surprised me was how well written the romance was. Both these characters are beautifully written and grow at a great pace throughout the show. The fact that they're both inspired by each other, is exactly what makes this romance so brilliant and somewhat rare. There's also a beautiful scene where they both tell each other how they changed each other's lives and made them who they are today.

Ichikawa's character writing impressed me the most. Even in S1, his character development was the standout feature for me. In S2, it picks up right where it left off, and doesn't drop pace at all. When you look back at the start of the show, it's hard to believe that Ichikawa used to be the way he was. His character development is paced so perfectly. There's so much to admire about him - the way he thinks, the way he learns about himself, the way he always wants to be better than he is today and the way he genuinely loves Yamada.

Another great feature about this anime was its pacing for the romance. The romance moves along at a great pace, throughout the show. It doesn't slow down once. Which is again rare in romance anime.

The direction is phenomenal. With a show this well written, the direction, animation and the soundtrack should be able to match that. And it certainly did. The director also directed Teasing Master Takagi San. And I remember that even in S3, every single episode was close to a masterpiece. I'd say it's the same case with Dangers in My Heart S2. A lot of that is because of the direction. The soundtrack is brilliant too and it really stands out during the build-ups of heartfelt moments.

Although, I will say this, this anime is very dramatic with its sweet or romantic moments. So if you're not in a certain type of mood during the first watch, you could easily perceive it as over-the-top. But you might change your mind when you revisit it.

Overall though, I thought this was a phenomenal romance and it really took me by surprise.
