    Praise for Memeco Arii

    Hitorijime My Hero is an amazing just wanting a place to belong and finding that person and place story. Masahiro is a kind hearted and gentle teen who is neglected as a child, shown little to no parental love or support and has never known love. Kousuke is a man who rehabilitates youth by letting his fist fly and relay every word his mouth is too busy smoking to speak. Both feel like they're not enough and that they're just living to live until a love confession brings them together. Although, their road to happiness is bumpy and filled with some difficult situations and conversations, Masahiro and Kousuke are determined to have their happily ever after. Beautifully written and drawn, this story hooks you from episode 1 and fills you with tears, laughs and overall heartfelt goodness. I have watched season 1 more times than I can count and loved it so much I even started purchasing the manga which is just as great.

    Superr cute and UNDERRATED

    It was a really cute, well written story, i have no complaints, if you like cute romances (with a lot of funny moments) this is a great choice.

    Pretty good.

    I'm not a big fan of romance, but this is extremely well done. The story and characters are cute and well-written. The animation is fairly good. I like the artwork in this series. It has its own style and looks nice. The voice acting is very good as well. There isn't a whole lot of conflict other than the love story, but it doesn't really need any. I'd definitely recommend watching this series if you are a fan of romance, because this series does it very well.

    edit - I will say that upon thinking about it, these leads do play into some heteronormative stereotypes and there are a lot of somewhat unhealthy aspects of the relationship. I only watched about 5 episodes of this show, and while I would still recommend this, its not perfect or anything.

    Also, I'm gay.

    Liked it

    The story is well-plotted, the charachters are interesting and well developed. As for the romance, I did like it, but I wish there weren't so many episodes on a more depressing side, with all the troubles going on. That is my own personal taste though, so don't let it bother you. The ending was great and really heartwarmng. I can only recommend.
