I went into this show not expecting anything at all and to drop it after 2 episodes, but I at least wanted to check it out since I'm a huge fan of both Kazuya Nakai (Robby's VA) and Tomokazu Sugita (Yang's VA)
This show, while not being extraordinary or an extreme masterpiece to most, was everything I needed. The humor was great (though some joked got dragged on a bit too long sometimes), the characters spoke to me and I fell in love with every single one of them.
While the story isn't groundbreaking or anything, it still managed to pull me in and hold me
...
tight for the twelve weeks this show aired; and even now, six months after the last episode aired, this show still means the world to me.
The LGBT representation that is (mostly) Yang and Robby and Hatchi for some part too, is done amazing. It's subtle enough that it doesn't take over the plot of the show, but it's still there and, while Yang is a bit excentric in his behaviour and looks, it's not stereotyped as done in many other anime which is great.
The soundtrack is nothing amazing, and there's way better soundtracks out there; but it has a few tracks that were really good and placed in the context of the episodes really had me on the edge of my seat. (Also Yang's theme is just amazing)
The opening song is okay overall, I wouldn't say it's my favorite but the ending theme, ho boy, is phenomenal. Yang, Allo and Gras really went out there and reinvented disco with that song and it gets stuck in your head for way longer than you'd expect.
Overall, I personally think this anime is a masterpiece; but I am aware that this statement is gravely influenced by my own emotions as Robihachi is a show that helped me a lot when I was down and now has a special place in my heart.
It's definitely an underrated show, so i hope more people start watching and become a fan!
