This is ironically one of my favorite anime. I tried my best to be unbiased in the review though. I also reviewed as a short, not as a full anime

Plot: 7/10

Hakone-chan has a bit more plot than the typically short, with the conflict spanning over several episodes and the story moving forward. The first five episodes focus heavily on the initial problem of Hakone-chan getting her power back, but beyond this point, the story becomes more loose and less focused.

This is my first review so don't judge me :3

Story: It's pretty easy to understand it and tell somebody about it.

Art: The art is pretty.

Sound: The sound is good and accompanies the Anime pretty good.

There's actually a shocking amount of substance and worldbuilding packed in here, which is to say that even though it's still not very much in the grand scheme of things, it is still far more than what one typically expects from such a fleeting title. The concept of onsen spirits is ...
