I thought this anime was one of the most beautiful animated shows I’ve seen, the music was great, the characters were pretty and cute. But am I the only one that felt it was kinda boring story wise? All the girls are so nice, there was not much drama, no deep/sad storylines, etc. it just all kind of felt blah. Give me some mean girls, or some sort of romance or something. The animation and music carried me through watching it to the end. But if it had some depth or drama it would be a 10/10 for me.

Sorry to hear that you can’t enjoy happiness and need drama to feel fulfilled. Please never enter into relationships, your poor other half is in for a world of misery.
And no, I don’t agree. Excellent anime.

I think you're missing the point.

These kinds of stories, about cute girls doing whatever (CGDCT/Slice of Life), are just about that for the sake of the girls themselves or the atmosphere they create. In a manner of speaking, you're just supposed to turn off your brain and enjoy the vibe.

In order to make any meaningful plot developments, you would almost certainly have to upset the cozy atmosphere. And to have the trust of the audience is important. Once you bring drama into the mix, the audience won't trust henceforth that nothing serious will go wrong, so the series will fail for it's former purpose without recovery.

The anime is supposed to be a slice of life as well as cgdct, so the boring setting is the main point of the show which helps in creating a lighthearted and comfy environment within the anime. The animation, soundtrack and characters add value to the anime but the theme is to show the everyday lives of the characters. As a sol anime enjoyer, I really liked the anime. If you found it boring, that genre may not be for you. Anime like akebi are good when you don't want a particularly heavy show, one which you can sit back and enjoy at any given time of the day.

It’s not the kinda show I would have normally got into but the animation and general presentation drew me in. I actually liked that it was such a generally cheerful show. Hard to explain how but they made it work (at least to me). I actually think it would have come off more cringe and generic if they tried to put needless drama in there. Sometimes just having a relaxing show with fun vibes is enough.

Almost all slice if life anime is about positivity and feel good moments with silliness sprinkled on top. Toxicity and conflict are never part of the Slice if Life genre when it's more about friendship, family, and femininity. Sometimes, there's some semblance of drama, but they're mostly resolved within 2 episodes.
"Manga readers are annoying, all they do is complain or spoil the anime we discuss in an anime forum.
They should really do their whining at manga forums.

I appreciate your guys commentary. I love the slice of life genre from other shows with that label, I love rom coms as well. And don’t get me wrong I loved a lot of things about this show. I just wanted something less cozy vibes and some romance or something to hook me in.

No no no, "Slice of Life" is not a excuse for being boring. there are a lot "Slice of Life" animes out there that don't have trama/drama and are not boring. "Akebi's Sailor Uniform" problem is to be excessive, too much characters, too much ideas, so little time, and that made the interactions unnatural, the way indifferences and social barries are resolved is too basic, it can't be no other than unsatisfying, come on, it needs some level of deepness.

the show ain't that bad, but sometimes the emotions are overplayed and become a bit over the top and kinda redundant.
so if it had some more humor and more comedy vibes it would be much better.
overall :very decent show, and it's kinda gay, which is a good point.

If it had more feet or focused more on it would be a 9/10 with ease. Feet fanservice. Because the slice of life was good enough.
