Do you guys know death stranding? That video game by the John Metal Gear guy, Hideo Kojima? One of the earliest comments I saw online about the game was something like, "Imagine being a postman all day, delivering stuff, going home after a hard shift to play games, and the game you get to play is Death Stranding, where most of the time you're just delivering things." I never really resonated with that take about the game or any media until I watched this anime.
This anime made that feeling hit home. I’m a guy who goes to work and college, gets home, does the laundry
...
and chores (forced), and then sits down to watch an anime about someone doing laundry and chores. Minus the part where I’m not a beautiful young girl, and minus the part where she has some gadget or trick to remove stains instead of me brushing at them with an old ass brush until my muscles hurt while hoping the stain will magically disappear (it doesn’t), this anime is basically my kisah, my story. To an extent.
Even though it’s mainly slice-of-life, the show can drop a totally unexpected plot element out of nowhere that genuinely makes me go, "Huh? What was that?" Of course, those things don’t always get explained right away, which makes the show feel unpredictably interesting.
The anime also knows how to serve fanservice tastefully. The main character is undeniably pretty and hot as hell, and the show wants to show it. There’s no extreme ero stuff like nipples, but the shots are teasing enough to make me go, "Woaaah." A lot of the fanservice happens in the onsen, so of course steam covers things up and fuck up the screen,find an uncensored version, if that even exists.
Animation wise, it’s decent and gets the job done. The OST is serene and easy on the ears. The overall vibe is very summer-feel, which is weird since it airs in winter, but whatever works.
The characters are lovable. Because it’s slice-of-life, no comically exaggerated personas so the neighbour be neighbouring and the kiddos be kiddo-ing. Our main character is probably the prettiest and hottest this season,personally, best girl, wife material, call her what you want,she’s top tier. I want a girlfriend like her,i want my girlfriend to be like her and heck, my girlfriend probably wants me to be more like her.
Overall, this is a very enjoyable slice-of life with a some suprise. Totally recommended.
