Synopsis

Chiyo Mihama begins her high school career as one of the strangest students in her freshman class—a tiny, 10-year-old academic prodigy with a fondness for plush dolls and homemade cooking. But her homeroom teacher, Yukari Tanizaki, is the kind of person who would hijack a student's bike to avoid being late, so "strange" is a relative word.

There certainly isn't a shortage of peculiar girls in Yukari-sensei's homeroom class. Accompanying Chiyo are students like Tomo Takino, an energetic tomboy with more enthusiasm than brains; Koyomi Mizuhara, Tomo's best friend whose temper has a fuse shorter than Chiyo; and Sakaki, a tall, athletic beauty whose intimidating looks hide a gentle personality and a painful obsession with cats. In addition, transfer student Ayumu Kasuga, a girl with her head stuck in the clouds, fits right in with the rest of the girls—and she has a few interesting theories about Chiyo's pigtails!

Together, this lovable group of girls experience the ups and downs of school life, their many adventures filled with constant laughter, surreal absurdity, and occasionally even touching commentary on the bittersweet, temporal nature of high school.

Right, I have no idea how this review is going to come out, since this show is basically like getting a lobotomy. If I were to take an IQ test now, it would come back negative. So if what follows here makes no sense, now you know why.

Azumanga Daioh is one of the animes of all time. It is definitely of of the animes ever. Of all the animes to come out, this is certainly one of them. There seems to be some kind of consensus that this is some groundbreaking masterpiece and some zenith of storytelling, but I honestly can't see that and mainly ...

Mixed Feelings
tbh i slept thru the whole anime since like the 7th episode so i can't really say much about it BUT

the show has a great meme potential and is funny when you watch a compilation of it on youtube but when you watch it fully... god it's boring
the budget is really low, every couple of episodes there should be a joke about repeating the same thing over and over for like a minute
and it felt pretty funny at first but on the second, the third... why
some people may like that type of humour so i won't say that the show is just outright bad, you ...

I am a huge fan of the slice-of-life genre. Something about seeing cute girls sit around and do... Stuff is somehow entertaining for me. Slice-of-life however, seems to be one of the most hated genres only second to ecchi/hentai stuff. The only expectation to this rule seems to be a few iyashikei (healing) slice-of-life shows and Azumanga Daioh. While I could rant on how the iyashikei genre isn't very good, I am instead going to rant about why Azumanga Daioh, one of the most celebrated slice-of-life anime, is one of my least favorite ones out there, as I do not like this at all.

Now, the ...
