Inu x boku SS was one of the first ever anime that I ever watched, and although I must admit i got to it quite late, in 2020- I loved this anime to bits on my first watch and my rewatch. Its a very sweet love story with great comedy that really made me laugh. The character designs and their monster versions were incredibly well thought and each Character kind of synergized with the youkai whose powers they posses.
Art: 9
It was nothing special, but I give it an 9 for the cute and funny chibi styles that were commonly used as well as the
...
closing sequence that each character had, its really worth it to watch each episode to the end in this show. Of course, it must also be taken into consideration that this anime came out around the 2000's so my standards for the art are quite lowered.
Story: 8
It got slice of life-y and each episode would sometimes get a bit boring, but the overarching story and the few moments of background for the main cast was very entertaining, although I wish i got to know other characters better as well.
Characters: 9
The biggest complaint about the show that I see is the 7 year age gap between the female lead and the male love interest. Albeit this is a very strange design choice, I find that it doesnt affect the story much and Its quite common among other anime like Blend S. The age gap is not ideal and I wish it was not so large, but regardless the love story and design of each character was so unique and very nice. I could not get enough of the funny lines that each character had, especially Nobara Yukinoki, who was my favorite. Each character has a very different personality and its worth it to watch the show just for the characters and their stories.
I believe that what really tied the story together was the romance, Inu x Boku ss is a very cute love story and it melted my heart. I swear, I got toothaches from how sweet the love story was. If anything, I reccomend this show to anyone who is a huge fan of romance and happy endings.
the bonus episode also gave me a lot of smiles- its a good episode to end the show on (as much as i wish that s2 would come out)
Overall, I rate it a 10/10
