For many years now, the anime genre “romance” has definitely given us a VERY wide frame of shows. It has the extremely perverted harem shows, the cliche action-ecchi show, the very annoying super-natural "romantic" shows. This anime however is free from all of the above -it is a slice of life- it is like taking a breath of fresh air after being cooped in a smoking room for 6 hours.
Now that I have said all that; please let me make a review as short and informative as possible.
The story is extremely slice of lifistic- uh I mean realistic. Everything about it, the characters actions, developments,
...
even the characters themselves.
Speaking of the characters, I am really impressed by how the characters changed so much during the show -of course I am not comparing it to Toradora- it was great.
The style of drawing them (the characters) was pretty much mediocore- nothing really special.
I really did not like the ending. It reminded me of my previous vow to never watch a slice of life anime-but when my favorite anime turned out to be a slice of life, I decided to give it a shot.
The word life rings throughout the whole show, the no kissing part, the typical and NOT over-dramatic characters, and the wrong girl choice. Oh well I can't be mad: it is called slice of LIFE, and life is bitter.
_________________Anime's with similartraits________
-Kinda wanted to point out how the MC of this show seemed like he was based on Hikigaya Hachiman from OreGairu- even the walk is the same.
-The baseball+romance thingy is suspiciously similar to that of Clannad and Clannad after story.
-The plot about the MC returning from a journey is cliche enough but it resembled the anime Myself;Yourself VERY much.
-That being said let me finish up this mini review.
________________Overall____________
I am not mean enough to rate this show low, because the ending did not match my desires.
Instead I will please myself by rating the enjoyment low.
Lastly, if you enjoy horribly realistic scenes please feast your eyes for here is one for you.
+++Thanks for reading. It means a lot to me.

Have you ever watched an ero being played? Note: I have not even done this before.
Well this is basically a REALLY high-definition recording of an ero game, wait it is more like a role play. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that only Airi's face was shown through out the whole thing.
It is hard to rate it; the role play (for so I shall call it) was made up of what happened after Airi confessed (don't get excited, it was only text) to the previous main character [Airi is the main character of THIS series.]
The art however is really good- if you remember
...
I said 'high definition- wait did I say art? I mean Airi was really painted well.
That's right; 3D Airi + picture background (I am not joking)+ fancy transition= all the art in this episodic role play.
Just like her appearance, her voice was good enough.
Next up: character.
Put yourself in my place, one girl is talking to herself throughout the show, how on earth are you going to rate that??
I didn't enjoy this thing. I am guessing that most people don't- it is kinda like watching somebody playing a super boring game with your fav characters.
Overall;
I am tired of being accused of being a 'fanboy' or 'hater,' so I calculated the average and put it there.
Should you watch?
-No. Unless you love Airi so much that you don't mind seeing 14 minutes of her talking to the screen .
Side note: four is decent not bad.

Actual Name: Love Hina: Final Selection
More suitable name: Love Hina: Final Recapitulation(recap)
Sorry to disappoint all fanboys like me who were expecting something epic, something awesomely grand and romantic like that in Love Hina Again. I must admit that Love Hina Again was really great.
This thing is basically a recap- for the better part of the wpisode(about 25 minutes) the characters were being introduced and the story was being summarized.As if ANYBODY would watch the final episode without watching the prequels.
It is safe to say that most people already knew who he ended up with (in Love Hina Again) this just reinforces it...
So pretty much no
...
story.
Art good as always- no need to comment.
Being a recap, the characters weren't given much screen time so it is really hard to rate them based on this alone.
Enjoyment.
Bruh.
I was totally let-down. Like I didn't come here to hear what I already know be repeated. But still,the final selection IS there although there is still room for a final selection 2 (if you get what I am saying.)
Overall;
Judging this episode alone, it would receive a decent-which according to MAL is a four.
The whole series would get a 9.98 but saying that here is pointless.
Should you watch? Yes....
-but skip to minute 25 for the -well- decent- content.

Name: KissKiss.
Synopses: An ad for a candy.
If you are anything like me, you might wonder, what on earth do boyfriends and kisses have to do with candy???!
Honestly, I still don't know the answer to that question but hear me out, for I will do my best to write what they call a 'review.'
Story;
Each episode was 5 minutes, where 1 minute was taken for a song. (Making 4 minutes.) In that 4 minutes, I felt like Sherlock Holmes trying to decipher what was the point of this whole thing..
I usually ran out of time before I could figure it out. This is my deduction of
...
the story though [I might be wrong]:
-The girl(whose name really isn't mentioned[or I didn't hear]) gets super hot boyfriends after she eats candy. At the end of the episode they usually disappear.
Art;
I have to say that this scores this anime the highest. Pretty much decent drawing (although the guys looked terrible.)
Character;
The 16 minutes (4 per ep) of eating candy and switching boyfriends did not really tell me anything about anybody in this show. Gotta give it a poor.
Enjoyment;
To be fair, everything but the art was a disappointment. Unless you love candies so much that you would enjoy watching people eating it, I really don't see why ANYBODY would like this show.
Overall;
That being said I calculated the average of all of my scores and scored the overall based on it. (So that I am being fair.)
Side note(s):
-It is a Chinese show.
-I couldn't find a proper synopses anywhere so feel free to use mine!

{This review was deleted for being 'preeliminary' so I decided to watch some more episodes. I regret making that decision though.}
First of all I want to meet the smart person who did not tag this as hentai, because as sure as hell it is.
Thinking that the story might be interesting (and because it was one of the few airing romance anime's in early 2020) I decided to try it out.
It was terrible.
It is my first time rating a show so; but terrible it is.
Story2/10
Like most hentai shows it doesn't have a plot at all- just a perverted guy f***ing his sister(s). Well the story DOES
...
progress but it is still more of a background, kinda like 'do you rememeber when mom died yesterday' kinda thing.
Art: 4/10
Terrible for an anime, but ok for hentai I guess.
Character 1/10
NO Character! The show literally begins this way: "this is the story of me and my two sisters who are not related" then goes on to show a porn scene.
Enjoyment 6/10
I don't know about you- but I went there to watch an anime, not straight up hentai.
Even as hentai (which I have no experience of) I am not sure this will be enjoyable.
Overall 3/10
Save your time- this is trash for an anime. If you want to watch hentai then there are better ones out there for ya.

I usually don't do light novels.
Mostly because they have too slow progression, too many cliffhangers, and too much Japanese.
Sounds like I am being pick, huh? Well whatever, let me begin the interesting task of glorifying this novel. (I mean reviewing)
The story is quite well known- the protagonist finds panties attached to a love letter; so he sets on a humorous quest to find the sender. The sender has been found a long time ago- in the anime, manga, and the novel. The story however, continues to introduce more and more people with different fetishes.
I really don't know how to rate art that doesn't exist
...
except once in a chapter; so let's say... mediocore?
Just like the art, the character development doesn't really exist; most times their fetishes take over, and suddenly some time they are normal people.
I enjoyed this show overall.
"Entertaining, humorous, and light-hearted." Anybody else hear a nine in that phrase???!

If you are romantic comedy fan like me -or even if you are not- you might have wondered what happens when two dense people fall in love with each other...
The answer is simple: Jistsu wa Watashi wa or 'Actually I am' in English. This anime provides the EXACT answer to the question above- oh by the way it is an adaptation of a manga by the same name. Weird beginning? Check. Semi-introduction? Check. Informative information (doesn't have to make sense)? Check.
Oh well I think I should be able to start reviewing now.
Story 6/10.
Since you probably already the story, there is no need for
...
me to try your patience and time rephrasing it.
It is gonna take a better fanboy than I am to lie about the greatness of this story. It is no great at all. Basically Asahi (the guy) finds out the secret of his crush, and gets closer to her because of that. [Sounds kinda like Kaichou wa maid-sama]
The two selling points however, is that the main character- whose name is Asahi I think- cannot tell a lie. Oh and that the female MC (forgotten her name) is even more dense than the already dense Asahi Kuromine.
Now that I think of it, the plot development is not really bad; about one or two fillers in the entire show.
[Side note] the plot seems comparable to that of Rosario + Vampire.
Art 9/10
Humorous.
Aah, that is definitely the best way to describe it. The only thing that makes the cliche scenes tolerable are the expressions shown by the characters. You will love them. Trust me.
Characters 5/10
I am going to be brutally honest here: It is like the author copied and pasted random stereotypical anime characters. None of them are original whatsoever.
To prove my point here are some of them:
-Dense MC (x2)
-Childhood friend who torments the mc.
-Harsh Tsundere
I am not sure that if I said the characters' names it won't count as spoilers.
Asahi Kuromine (main character) is genuinely likeable. Well at least his facial expressions are. Although, he is denser than most harem main characters, he is not the delinquent or studious nerd that usually occupy the slot of the protagonist.
Enjoyment 10/10.
If I could, I would have give the enjoyment a 9.98. It is extremely funny and had me laughing severally during the course of its 13 episodes. If you are watching it for the comedy (like me) then you probably will enjoy it. However if you are watching to enjoy the abnormal relationship (excuse my opinion) between a vampire and a human, prepare to be disappointed for this anime does (semi spoiler ahead) not conclude the developing romance.
Overall 10/10.
If you want a light-heated romance and don't mind cliches like "The unrelenting parent" etc. then this should be good for you. Humorous, entertaining and full of joy, that is what it Actually is. (Read the English title if you don't get it)
-"THIS DES NOT DESERVE A 10"
Sorry, but I am the one writing the review, I choose my score and you choose to whether or not to give me feedback on the half hour or more that I spent writing this.
Actually, I am.... GOING!

{This review goes through a lot of topics like the MC's weakness and the story's decency. Feel free to skip at parts that don't interest/concern you.}
It is no big secret that Rosario to Vampire is trash.
It is considered so by most people at least. However, I like it; I found it very interesting, but now that I have to state the bare facts,I have to admit that the show seems really bad. Hear me out, for here comes my review.
Story.
The story is that this human guy (whose name is Aono Tsukune btw.) Somehow, he ended up in a school for monsters and he has to
...
protect his identity. Compared to most harem anime's- is the plot really that bad?
Honestly for that level of plot, the developing and pacing is not really all bad. It shows how each of the girls were found, and then it shows their various mishaps then finally (spoiler) it shows what happens when his secret was discovered) Once again I ask, was it really that bad??
Many people do not realize that this anime -this season at any rate- talks about one of the most sensational topics of today's world. That topic is racism. In this anime, racism is not shown because of color- it is shown mostly because Tsukune is a human and the other pupils are monsters. When he finds out that the students are monsters, does that keep from making friends? And when the other students find out that this seemingly womanizer is actually a human what is their reaction? This anime shows how each of the main characters (or supporting characters) come to the conclusion that "Human or monster, the value of their life is the same."
Art.
For the year this anime was made, the art displayed is pretty good.
Character.
I will try to do some of the characters in detail, so please feel free to skip if you wish.
>>>>>>>>>>>Aono Tsukune<<<<<<<<<<<
He is -as you probably know by now- the protagonist of this story, and it is told from his point of view. His character development is not really bad, but it appears that most critics do not even notice it.
The problem that most critics have with this character is that he is weak. There is a lot of astonishing strength displayed in this show, so it is not surprising that many people want a strong main character.
Let us face the bare facts though: He is a human being, just like you and I. Most of us, don't really have much of a chance against super powered beings.
Also, he is strong in character, which surpasses physical strength. Examples of his character strength are hard to state without bringing in spoilers (which I am trying to avoid.)
It is safe to say that he has put himself in a great danger severally because of his friends.
>>>>>>>>>Akashiya Moka<<<<<<<<<<<
She is -as you may have guessed- the vampire that is in the title of the show. "When the rosary on her chest is removed, the vampire blood within her awakens." When this happens, this extremely cute and clingy person turns into a most independent and frightening vampire.
One might think that she suffers from personality disorder- but since it is fantasy I'll let the thought slide.
To those who are bothered by the last sentence: the last episode shows that (mini spoiler) she is still the same person, despite the changes.
>>>>>>>>>Kurono Kurumu<<<<<<<<<<
Let me see..
The development in this character is way too sudden. One episode she is trying to make him her slave, and the next she loves him. Well I'm running out of time so I will just summarize the remaining characters.
Yukari is just a genius loli- that is really all that is there about her.
Ginei is just a (mini spoiler) a pervert who admires Moka.
Shizuka is their homeroom teacher, who is somewhat nice.
>>>>>>>>Character round-up<<<<<<<<<<<
The characters -most of them- have really quick developments. One episode, they are evi land then after getting defeated they suddenly love the main character.
That does not really score the characters high.
But the MC- unlike the rest- actually has SOME character development because as Moka pointed out in one of the episodes (i disremember which) "I feel lately that you have become stronger" (that isn't the exact quote but that is the meaning.)
And because of that statement of hers, the character aspect of this show has earned a medicore.
Enjoyment.
Welcome to the only aspect of the show that is based on opinion only!
I really enjoyed this show. It had decent comedic scenes. The fan service was good. Although I would appreciate it if it was done in moderation. THERE WAS TOO MUCH OF IT! The romance also developed- although the scenes where the two main characters start repeating their names was hella annoying. In total I would give it a 'very good.'
Overall.
Found it really enjoyable. Would recommend it to anyone who isn't over particular about the main character being 'cool' and illustrious. The romance aspect is also good- would recommend it for anybody interested in vampire-human relationship. As for the fan service, it is decent but not good enough to be a cause of my recommendation.
One last thing:
It is no big secret that Rosario to Vampire is considered trash. The big secret is that it is actually "very good."

"The best anime of the year"
This comment I have found severally when people talk about Kaguya-sama:Love is war. It is true that it was funny and had me cracking most of the time but was it really all that? I mean there is Go-tobun no hanyome and a lot of other legendary anime's in 2019, was this one really the best?
That is what I shall endeavor to tell you what this show is all about in the fastest time possible, for I really want to watch something else.
Story...
I trust you have read what this is about, so there is no need for me to paraphrase
...
it. It is kind of interesting how the synopsis refers to them as "geniuses" yet when you watch the show you get the feeling that they are one of the most-well not stupid- but common people that ever lived. Their egos - which is not exactly pride- is sometimes funny and sometime downright annoying.
The story does not really progress throughout the anime- so if you are looking for a serious romance then you are in the wrong place. The both know that the other loves them, yet they both won't confess because it is a "sign of weakness."
It is I have said alternating from plain stupid and annoying to funny and amusing. Depends on who is watching it.
Art.....
I am no big judge of art but for some weird reason, I find the art in this anime quite unique and deserving of the score I give it.
Character....
The characters do not even have much progress- just like the story. They are quite unique in their own way. There really isn't much to say about them but a mediocore will definitely be doing justice to it.
Enjoyment...
Like I said earlier, this anime is not really serious about 'romance' aspect and it is basically a waste of your time if that is your reason for watching this show, you will surely be terribly disappointed.
The comedy aspect however, is on the top. It is so good that you cannot watch a NEW youtube video about "Funniest anime scenes" and not find Love is war among them. All the comedy is kinda on Chika's side though..
I enjoyed this very much- like I said it isn't exactly ver romantic but I find it quite funny.
Overall..
It is great- although I still think it is overrated. The part about having little romance development might change in the coming season two... but I highly doubt it. I am more glad however, to thank all those who voted 'helpful' and 'not helpful' for when you are an otaku like me; all feedback is appreciated.

"If to be truthful is to be cruel, then lying must surely be an act of kindness" [Hachiman]
How can one not help liking such logical yet incorrect reasoning?
This anime is in no way the first to have an 'antisocial' protagonist, but it is DEFINITELY the best. Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Zoku or Oregairu2 is probably one of the best romance comedies out there and I will now go on to tell you why.
Story 7/10.
It is safe to assume that the reader would have probably watched the first season- if not please do so as it is fundamental. In any case
...
the story is centered around Hikigaya Hachiman (the only character that I remember their name) who has a pessimistic view of youth, nay of life in general. He is one day forced to join a club and then the anime shows their everyday lives. Just to make it clear: it is not one of those useless shows that go on to say how those girls began to show their affection and blah blah. THERE IS NO ECCHI OR HAREM TAG! Oregairu is much better than that crap.
The story line, I have to admit is not very strong but it is in no way a filler. A seven will probably do it justice.
Art 9/10.
I don't do art. I cannot draw so I don't judge. But even me can see that it has definitely improved from that of the previous season. In fact, I distinctly remember a comment from my younger sister "OMG Eight-man looks a lot more handsome"
Character 10/10.
Ah this is definitely where it scores the highest.
The characters are really worked on so to speak.
Let me use Hikigaya for an example is an awesome character. Might not be an awesome person but is undoubtedly awesome as a character. He is free from most- if not all stereotypical cliches. Heck, he doesn't even sit by the window!
His antisocial way of thinking is made in such a way as to strike the viewer as humorous and interesting- and it did. He is in no way a pervert but that is not what this series are about.
Unlike many anime's his faults are shown and that kinda gives the viewer a sense of satisfaction; because to be honest: nobody likes a perfect main character.
The characters development in general is average. I think that most of them have changed immensely at the end of the season if you compare them to the beginning of season one.
Enjoyment 9/10.
If you are looking fro something relatable- something you can just picture yourself there, then this is the series for you.
Oh and if you are looking for logic that makes sense but is still wrong then this anime is filled with them.
Fan service I admit is very rare- but there is a sufficient amount of shows based primarily on that (not to hint KissxSis.)
It is awesome- there really isn't much I can add to that except that Oregairu is out standing, fantastic, excellent, and any other word in the the English language that portrays the same meaning.
Overall 9/10.
This was awesome. Although maybe it was because Hachiman kept me captivated most of the show.
It might be because I could see myself in his place.
It might be because I liked Yuigahama's cheerful nature.
Whatever it might be; I loved it.
The manga is even better. But I am filled with an optimistic yet ominous anticipation for season 3, for it is -as I perceive- going to be very sad....
