This anime was not what I was expecting. I thought of this anime as a simple romcom about highschool girls simping over their tutor with a very standard plot yet I kept wanting to see each of the individual relationships develop. I watched both seasons of the anime and read the manga within about 3-4 days which is absurd as the manga had 187 chapters. The different backstories and the link back to the mc that all the girls had was so interesting and always left you wondering who the mc would go out with especially when the school festival left the person who helped

the mc anonymous. This links to how the anime continues its story in the manga where once all the relationships of the main story have developed, it splits into multiple routes and stories that could have happened when the mc goes out with them. It reveals that the person who helped the mc in the school festival was that girl and the mc goes to develop their feelings and confession like a post credit scene. These ending routes were amazing with really romantic and cute moments where there could be a time skip or just going back to the main story to uncover new parts. Each story as well was so laid out for example the mc pursues a job as a teacher in an island where he meets one of the girls working as a doctor on the island and they get together. Another route where he stays a teacher in the highschool where he gets together with the teacher. Even though I was biased between each girl and obviously wanted a certain 1 or 2 to win, they made all endings work out and they left no reader disheartened when their favorite girl didn’t win. In conclusion, BokuBen is a great romcom anime which was funny and ecchi at points. It had a great artstyle, opening and storyline that left readers feeling overwhelmed with the amount of backstory and development between characters. Fire anime/manga.
