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!

I really, really, really enjoy this anime, is short and funny and absolutely cute!!
Is a friends lo lovers anime with a unique female protagonist, she's strong, funny, tomboy and so in love with his childhood best friend. Is a really beautiful journey of understanding about true friendship and love. Sometimes you have a friend and that's awesome, but sometimes in love you found both, a best friend and your true love. I really like that part of expression in this anime, that your partner is not only your love, is also your Friend! And than that is the true, and beautiful part of a relationship. Also I love the Tomboy representation in this anime, not all tomboys are the same!
In real life, on the inside we are fragil girls, and just want to be loved but we are what we are.

This was a nice romance with great comedic timing and plenty of fun characters. It finds a nice balance between it's main couple and it's side characters in a way that none of it gets boring. The side characters in particular were the highlights of the show. Gundo, particularly, was a great character who was very savage and funny initially, and she also has a great character arc till the end. The show also had this non-linear type of storytelling where it keeps going back and forth to show what all has happened between these characters before and in what order. While that keeps the show interesting, it did limit their progress and interactions during the present. I do think this show took a sudden change of tone, to a emotional one, after a hilarious initial set of episodes.
This is just slice of life, rom-com anime done perfectly. The dynamic between aizawa and jun was my favorite part about this series. And surprising the comedy in this show is really good. I didn't find myself cringing at a lot of jokes, it was mostly genuinely really funny.
The side characters are also pretty good. I really liked mizuru and aizawas dad especially. Though i wasn't the biggest fan of carol, very 1 dimensional, I guess that's the point though.
I don't really have anything else to say, i think if you liked horimiya or shows like toradora with this sort of tom-girl dynamic (not saying horimiya was a tom-girl anime)
Then honestly you should just watch it. 10/10.
