Blend S was not the first show I picked off my to-watch list last season since it did not really pique my interest. At first, I felt like it was gonna be one of those shows that tried too hard to be cute and moe in order to catch viewers' attentions. But boy, was I wrong. This will be explained further in the later parts of my review.

Well, let's start off with the show's Story(7):

I gave this show's story a 7 (which is an average in my standards), mainly due to the fact that this show does not really have a central focus. I know ... that this show is a comedy and does not have a main plotline to follow, but that also gives me a much more difficult way to provide a proper score. The show also has different pairings all throughout the series, but the main issue is the different plot holes and questions that arise inside the viewers' head about the relationships between those pairings even after the show has concluded. Basically, there are some parts left unanswered and that in itself may leave the viewers unsatisfied with how the show went.

The show's Art(9):

The show has a vibrant and colorful art style which gives off a very entertaining and fun vibe. This kind of art is common nowadays, especially in comedy shows as it accentuates the humour used in the show, making it easier for the viewers to understand the joke.

The Sound(8):

The show has a very catchy opening song, which has become viral due to the first few seconds of the song being turned into numerous jokes on the internet. The ending song does not stray from the main theme of the show, which is being cute. The choice of background music is also brilliant due to the amazing comedic timing this show possesses.

The Characters(8):

The characters in Blend S are lovable in a way that even when a character is designed to be annoying, you will not grow tired of them of wish for them to get removed from the show since they coordinate perfectly with the other members of the cast.

Personal rating on Enjoyment(10):

As I stated in the first part of the review, I thought that this was gonna be another try hard cute anime that repeat the same joke from the past decades, I was mistaken. I personally enjoyed this show to the point that I could not stop laughing everytime a comical seen pops out or a rather simple joke is spoken by one of the characters. There were even times when I would not realize how long it takes for me to watch one episode due to my constant rewinding to a certain scene in the episode.

Overall, I recommend this series to those looking for a romantic comedy that provides you with different types of jokes in each episode. Although there may be times when a joke is reused, you will surely never fail to laugh due to the amazing execution done by the show.

Let's start with the story(7):

Personally, I enjoyed the main concept of the story, with the sharing of basically EVERYTHING they had. The story had potential; the author basically had a huge story palette where he can play around and try different mixtures to see what new inventions he can come up with. Although he did not fail to meet my expectations on that end, there were some moments that felt too rushed for my taste. That is my personal take on the story section of this .

The Art(9):

My score may be due to my bias to this form of artstyle. This is the kind of ... art I grew up with, therefore, I apologize for all of those who disagree. This is just the kind of art I prefer.

Character(7):

Oh boy, oh boy. I personally enjoyed the characters since, I myself am a boy of age filled with thoughts that may send me to jail. The author was not afraid to showcase the different emotions teenagers could have. The character development was amazing as I felt myself becoming attached to them as the final chapters came through.

Enjoyment(8):

Okay, so most people might have different opinions, but I really enjoyed this as it was one of my firsts. This showed me a different side to this genre and explored topics that may not be mainly practical as revival upon death can not really occur. My main point is, this was seriously enjoyable and I recommend all of those who are searching for a different take on supernatural/romance to read this .
