If you didn't like the "edgy" anime recommendation from last week, here's something that will hopefully make you go awww.

The anime follows various couples in high school and how hard it is for them to say "I love you". Yes, cheesy, but the comedy aspect is the best part. The plot revolves around multiple couples, so you get to see everyone's different quirks, thoughts, and reactions to one another's gestures.

There's also a LOT of miscommunication between one partner to another, but that's only natural, plus these are high schoolers we're talking about. And because everyone has a unique character, there may be a few moments that viewers can relate to.



There is no such thing as a "perfect couple" and this show really puts an emphasis on that. Some may overthink about their partner's motives, or some may overstep boundaries making the situation incredibly awkward. This anime has it all.

Basically, love is weird and makes us do weird things sometimes.

Another unique aspect of the show is that everyone is pretty much connected to one another whether they're friends, teammates, or in the same class. But there are also characters with siblings or parents who don't really know how to read the room.




A mom just wants to give their kid some snacks so their date feels comfortable, but does the exact opposite multiple times. 

There are so many golden moments like a little sister reading her brother's messages thinking he accidentally got someone pregnant, or getting so excited to read a text message but dropping your phone in the shower.

The entire show depicts the struggles and joy of first time love. The end goal of this show isn't a happily ever after, but more of a what happens in between. 


Here is a quick trailer of what to expect:


And here is a link to either watch in English or Japanese.

This 2017 romance comedy anime only has 12 episodes with each episode only being 5 or so minutes long--it's a pretty quick watch. The episodes don't really follow each other in a straight storyline but rather shows the best moments from each couple.

If you're into romcoms of any sort, this anime will definitely provide. Next week we'll go back to dark and depressing!

  1. One Direction is still my faveWednesday, February 10, 2021

    Oh I love this anime! I first watched it last summer and have gone back to it multiple times because it goes so swiftly and the plot is enjoyable. Plus I like how we actually get to see multiple relationships develop instead of just underdeveloped high schoolers, which can sometimes happen in anime sadly. This is such a good recommendation and I'm so happy you posted about it.

A Few More Must Watch Anime

Over the past few weeks, I've shared a handful of anime that I think you need to watch. But these few weeks weren't enough time to list off all the shows that are binge worthy. After this blog post, I will be taking a hiatus from writing on this blog to heavily focus on my post grad job search. So with that being said, I'm going to give a quick run down of even more anime to watch! A Lull in the Sea If you want to cry, this is the show that will do it--I binged this show in a day in a half. This aesthetically beautiful drama/romance is about humans and mermaid like humans who live in the water. The mermaid like humans kinda need to stay in water to live so they can't be with those on land. From the New World This show takes place in a utopia world and the difficulties that is in a coming of age story. The main character searches for the mysterious of the world she's thrown into while discovering herself. It gets pretty weird but the more you watch, the more interes

This week's anime is a comedy, sports, coming-of-age shonen. You're probably thinking, "a show about volleyball?? gross" but trust me, this show is good . The show follows Shoyo Hinata, after constantly losing every volleyball game (due to forcing random people on his team since nobody else wanted to join) decides to attend Karasuno High School to become the next "Little Giant"--his idol nicknamed that for his small height but took the school to the nationals years prior. But once Hinata enrolls in the school and joins the club, he learns that the current volleyball team is one of the worst ones in  prefecture . Karasuno means crow and now with their reputation as a powerhouse volleyball school is gone, they are now " The Wingless Crows ". Hinata wasn't the only first year to join the volleyball team, Tobio Kageyama also did who actually faced Hinata in a volleyball game during middle school. With Hinata's raw talent of jumping incredibly h

You may be thinking, "that's such a dark title", well it is a pretty dark show . This 12 episode anime takes place in the afterlife, in a bar called Quindecim. There's a mysterious white haired bartender, Decim and his helper Chiyuki who bring two people at a time, who passed away, and make them play a game to see whether they can reincarnate, or go to a place which is basically purgatory. You may be thinking "games are fun, right?", well, if you want to call throwing darts onto a board that inflicts pain on a certain artery is fun, well then, I guess it could be fun? With each different "couple" that comes in, the game is different but ultimately both are staking their lives, or you could say their future lives'? These people don't know their dead, so with that, they are incredibly confused as to where they are and why. This is purposeful. With them not knowing they're dead, they tend to give it their all in the game their playing to w
