Not an honest review. Huge Hololive fan, but rating a 1/10 to offset troll 10/10 reviews.

Eh, HoloGra is basically a weekly short video series with a bunch of inside jokes about the Hololive idol group. It's episodic and you won't understand any of the context without keeping up with the community. A lot of it is nonsensical and the plot boils down to whatever random stuff the talents and staff want to put out.

It's very balls to the wall wacky with some slapstick comedy. I enjoy it from time to time, but I would never recommend it to a casual anime fan. It's ... also probably the worst way to introduce anyone into Hololive or vtuber culture in general.

If you think the character designs look cool but you don't like streamers, and want an actual story. Maybe wait for Hololive Alternative? (If that ever comes out).

This anime wasn't horrible, but neither was it that good.
The characters were, although realistic, not very entertaining or appealing; with the exception of one of the two female leads and perhaps one or two male side characters. Although I do understand that the point of the show is about regular people worrying about love and going around in circles in their heads... that doesn't make them likable.
Cowardice and idleness, even if it's realistic or well-written, is not necessarily entertaining; especially when there is no memorable soundtrack nor good dialogue to even accompany it.
Having realism is something worthy of praise, but it's not ... worth having if your characters aren't also engaging to the audience.

When I watch a romance anime, I'm looking for wholesome doki-doki moments that make your heart skip a beat from the bittersweet feelings of the main characters seen inside your screen. But, there wasn't a lot of that at all.
The characters felt like they spent a lot of time doing nothing or simply being idle. Which, although can be accurate as to how people slowly fall into relationships over time in the real adult world, is not very fun at all.

I especially disliked one of the female leads. She was boring, not that cute, and was constantly running away from her own feelings. It took more than half of the season for her to face her own reality. I got exhausted just looking at her. Worst girl in the show.
Another side character, who is a young teenager, is straightforward and spunky. Whose outgoing personality makes him contrast other members of the cast, and thus my favorite. Yet, he got very little screen time in the end.
Other side characters barely get any development nor are they worth remembering.

These facts, accompanied with some of the very annoying details of the story, almost made this anime a huge disappointment for me...

HOWEVER, there was blushing scene from best girl in the show near the end of the final episode!
That was a 9/10 top-tier anime girl blush that made my chest tighten from the cuteness! Shit almost gave me diabetes!
Was originally gonna give a 5, but imma push that number up to a 7 just for that blush in that last ep! BEST SHIT. Made it worth watching till the end.


If for some reason you're craving a realistic romance between adults who have trouble sorting out their feelings, give this a watch. But don't expect anything groundbreaking or especially fun.
