Tomo-chan wa Onnanoko! Is a refreshing take on the romance genre, blending teenage love with comedy and friendship. I finished this anime in just half a day, and it truly stands out as a unique high school rom-com. The story revolves around Tomo Aizawa, a tomboyish girl who struggles to get her childhood friend Junichirou to see her as more than just "one of the boys." What makes it interesting is how it perfectly captures the awkward yet adorable journey from friendship to love, filled with misunderstandings, hilarious interactions, and some heartwarming moments.
Apart from the main love story, the supporting characters add a lot of charm. Tomo's best friends, Misuzu and Carol, bring different dynamics-Misuzu with her sarcastic yet supportive nature, and Carol with her ditzy but insightful personality. The anime balances humor, school life, and romance well, though it does have its fair share of unrealistic moments. But honestly, if high school romance were this entertaining in real life, it would be a dream come true! Overall, it's an enjoyable watch, and I'd rate it a solid 7 out of 10.

This is my favorite show of the year! For starters, the comedy is great and guaranteed to make you laugh. The story was originally told in a 4-panel comic format, so there is no shortage of little gags and punchlines. But don't get the wrong idea, the show is able to dive into characters backgrounds, their thoughts and feelings, show their strengths and flaws. We get to see characters have significant character development as they learn about themselves and others and reflect on their mistakes.
It is refreshing to have a story where you aren't shouting at the screen, "Just tell him/her how you feel! Just say it!" (Not a spoiler, it's the opening scene/premise for the show) In the very first opening scene, Tomo confesses her love for Jun, but Jun friendzones her. So instead of the "should I tell him/her" "I want to tell him/her" narrative, it instead is about how Tomo is trying to be more girly to get Jun to notice her as more than "one of the guys" or "bro."
I greatly enjoyed the beautiful animation. Every scene, background, object, and of course character is beautifully drawn. I have listened to the English dub, and the voice acting was great and really brought the characters to life. I will be rewatching the series in Japanese with English subtitles soon.
I really enjoyed this anime, and I think you will too. Give it a try!

Tomo-chan Is a Girl! Is a lighthearted, energetic rom-com that delivers plenty of laughs and charm but doesn't quite break free from its genre's limitations. The story follows Tomo, a tough girl who's always been "one of the guys," as she tries to get her childhood friend, Jun, to see her as more than just a buddy. The premise is simple but effective, playing on classic misunderstandings and awkward teenage emotions.
The show's strongest aspect is its humor-Tomo's over-the-top reactions and the supporting cast (especially the delightfully chaotic Carol) keep things entertaining. The dynamic between Tomo and Jun is endearing, even if their relationship progression can feel frustratingly slow at times. The animation is bright and expressive, and the short episode format keeps the pacing snappy.
The romance, while cute, relies heavily on the same "Will they? Won't they?" tension without enough meaningful development.
Overall, Tomo-chan Is a Girl! Is a solid, enjoyable watch for fans of high-energy rom-coms.

Well im not gonna say the story and spoil it. & the graphic toooo awesome. If u ever fell down u can watch this it will realy help u get on to ur feett back.

I'm not gonna write a 3 page review, all I'm gonna say is that this show is so good!! The graphics were nice, it had a nice story, slow paced, a little rushed towards the ending but still well paces though, and it has a very nice ending. I love this show, one of the best in 2023 so far to be honest. I'm not gonna ensure you that everyone will love it, after all, "to each their own", everyone has different likes. But I will say, if you're looking for a well paced, funny, heart warming romantic series with likable characters, you SHOULD DEF TRY THIS ONE OUT!! It gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling watching the romance unfold between the characters and just makes you smile. I absolutely loved this show so much. Like I said before, to each their own, but if you like romance anime with a satisfying ending, try this one out.
NOTICE:: I'm adding this to my review after watching watching last ep:
This show was so damn good guys. The ending was perfect, it left you feeling so glad for the character. This is one of the best ROMANCE SHOWS I'VE EVER SEEN!!!! Give it a shot if you haven't watched it yet, you won't be disappointed, and if some people don't like it, somethings wrong with them. This show was so amazing, it was the highlight of my day. 10/10 top tier Romcom!!!!
