TL;DR: This is the type of show where you should stop picking out the bad parts of it objectively and just enjoy the show as a comforting show as a break from our tiring daily lives.
I'm still bad on writing reviews, so I will focus on parts that I can express my thoughts on it well
Ramen Daisuki Koizumi-san is an anime about a girl who loves ramen, her eating ramen from all sorts of places, mostly around Japan and people she met while doing it(not necessarily becoming really good friends). The theme itself is already pretty interesting, attracting people who likes ramen or wants to
...
know about ramen, or maybe even people who just wants to watch a show focusing on food.
Story-7/10
as you would expect from an anime about food, there isn't much of a story going on other than developments of relationship between characters. The show also mentions the origin, stories, or the taste of the ramen in depth, which is really informative and interesting.
Art-8/10
Has quite a few scenes where the characters are deformed, which only adds to my enjoyment, never too much. Good balance between scenes with realistic proportions and deformed scenes. Not unique, but well drawn in a normal way. The deformed scenes really add a lot of comedy to this show with the exaggerated expressions and all, and the realistic scenes just makes me go "awwwww".
Sound-8/10
I'm not experienced to rate the BGMs, but one thing I definitely love about this show is the opening and the ending. The opening is very lively with great music and singer, which hypes me up everytime I get to the opening, plus it has really catchy parts. The ending is like a Japanese rap but more musical, and somehow comforting, and heartwarming(?). The lyrics of both opening and ending goes really well with the show, if you can understand it. Even litsening just by the song itself it's really good, unlike some OPs and EDs that are initially good with the show, but feels lacking something listened by itself.
Characters-8/10
The main characters have opposite personalities, which really brings their character out. Watching Koizumi-san (main character) slowly getting known better with Yuu (another main character) really warms my heart and is really pleasing to watch. Different supporting characters when eating different types of ramen really brings out the story and humane feelings(?) of ramen.
Enjoyment-10/10
I personally enjoys comforting shows really much, so with cute characters and OPs EDs this great, what could go wrong? As a bonus it's also about a popular comfort food in Japan. The feeling of watching the show after a long, tiring day is just pure bliss and makes me go to sleep feeling satisfied and happy.
Overall-9/10
It might be lacking for people looking for action or intense romance, drama and stuff, but it's just perfect for people looking for a comforting show after a long day. These shows are those where you don't try to pick out the cons of it, but instead just enjoy it without worrying about anything.
