I am writing this after only watching season 1, just a disclaimer. Anyways, I found this anime very heartwarming and it made me care about the characters very very much! The cute interactions that Rikka has with Yuta, and the reason why she is Chunibyo (not gonna spoil that) felt organic and real! I also love it for it's gorgeous animation (thank you KyoAni!) And we'll timed humor that made my days better whenever I would watch it. Honestly, I'd say this is a must watch for fans of slice of life and romance anime!
It's actually a pretty good anime.
It has this 'unique' concept of story and the characters are unique too.
I don't know how to describe this anime properly, but i think it's something new that worth watching 'till the end.
I really like the story and to be honest, the person is just as rich as the story is like this. I often think about imaginations that other people can't understand. In my brain, imagination is alive today. The animation is very good, really like the aesthetic. The character development here is also very touched and very dramatic. The intro and outro are good, but I am a bit confused with the music, I don't really like the music. Usually, if the music is good, I'm not Japanese, I will get carried away with the music but this time it's not at all, when I hear the music, I feel dizzy hehehe. But on average, everything is good, I really like this anime, thank you for the studio and creator, for this anime, I really recommend watching it during a rich pandemic.
I had an absolute blast watching this show from the beginning, but the more towards the end I got the less I enjoyed it. Don't get me wrong, I really liked the whole thing, but it gets slightly worse as it goes on. I didn't really care for the ending either. However! If you feel or felt the same way after finishing it, I have good news. The movie has a much more satisfying ending. If it weren't for the movie, I probably would have given this show a 7.
The first time my daughter found this on Netflix, I rolled my eyes. "Not another teen romance," I whined. 24 episodes later, I was blown away. I was hooked. 'Love Chunibyo and Other Delusions' is NOT your stereotypical teen angst romcom. It deals with complex psychological issues, and some very deep subject matter. It is animated more beautifully than anything you can imagine. The characters are relatable, the premise is believable, and I'll be honest, speaking as the son and husband of psychologists, this show is INCREDIBLY smart in dealing with young teens and the pains and pressures that follow the transition into high school and young adulthood. Peer pressure. Love. Loss of family members. Sexual awakening. Trying to fit in while being embarrassed about your past. It is in turns moving, hilarious, frustrating, exhilarating, and romantic. There are times when the supporting characters will make you angry with their annoying personalities. The two protagonists, Yuta and Rikka, are trying to navigate first feelings of love while dealing with their "Chunibyo" (Japanese for 'Eighth Grader Syndrome') Which they use to escape the mundane life of high school and reconnect with their imaginative childhood. Yuta is embarrassd by it, but Rikka uses her Chunibyo to help her deal with the intense pain of losing her father at a young age. Her fantasy world is an escape from reality. One very welcome stabilizing character in this show is Rikka's older sister Toka. A very strong supporting female character who "battles" Rikka's imaginary character with a soup ladel. Sound ridiculous? Trust me. Watch it and you'll be amazed. After the final movie "Take On Me" aired, we were left wanting more. You will not be disappointed.
