Synopsis

Despite their distinctive personalities, Souma Shiki, Hayate Ichikura, Shun Futami, and Takayuki Mima all have one thing in common: though naturally clumsy, the four disguise their embarrassment from tiny slip-ups by maintaining a composed demeanor. However, it is actually the guys' airheaded natures that makes the girls' hearts throb. No matter what happens in their daily lives, the boys do their best not to lose their cool!

(Spanish review below).

I loved this anime!

The plot is very simple, but it works, because the anime doesn't try or pretend to be more complex than it shows. Personally, I found it very comforting to watch, I had a lot of fun, I loved all the characters and, without a doubt, I would like to continue watching something related to this story.

The short duration of the episodes is perfect to not get bored and leave you wanting more.

‘Play it cool, guys!’ it's a comfort anime, nothing more. It's not pretentious at all. Sometimes the jokes can be repetitive, but that doesn't make them any less funny.

This anime is simply delightful. The episodes are light and short (unfortunately too short ╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠), but it's impressive how there is so much character development in such a short time without it feeling rushed. The story has a beginning, middle and end, that is, it is a closed story despite occurring in an ''episodic'' manner, with specific events in the characters' daily lives. Furthermore, it is very easy to identify with the characters. I saw myself reflected in several scenes (I am Hayate and Hayate is me haha). Anyway, it's a quick anime that can even be watched in 1 day, ...

Mixed Feelings
Pretty cute, light, and fluffy. The way character relationships are allowed to build from meeting to meeting is interesting and really made this anime special. It’s slow-paced, with no central plot, so the character development was essential and well done. The art style is lovely. I also enjoyed reoccurring jokes and themes throughout. The voice acting is well handled. Sometimes characters’ goofs were emphasized more than necessary, but I rarely felt like that. If you’re looking for something fluffy, this might be a good pick for you! It struck me as queer-bating and fetishizing male relationships, or I would rate it more highly.
