Surely I'm not the only one who thinks this show feels a little like Kare Kano at times, even though it's clearly not as sophisticated. The style of humor is similar, though. The thought came to mind several times, so there must be something to it.
While the premise isn't particularly original, I have to admit I laughed a lot during this first episode. And while the characters are pretty one-dimensional for now, they're darn amusing in their stereotypical roles. Tenma's antics alone are worth the price of admission.
I'll definitely continue watching. I'm in it for the laughs.
This reminds me of a cross between Kare Kano and Azumanga Daioh. I don't know why, it just has that kind of vibe. Oh well, I love high school comedies, and I'm definitely going to keep watching this. I'm addicted to the OP and ED too, guruguru mawaru~!
Yep. It may not be original, but by god, it's funny. What more can you ask for in a comedy?
Well, it's more funny than love story. I mean, the series is obviously focused on Harima, the delinquent, which not many romantic comedies would ever focus on. Actually, he's not really a delinquent, if you've read the series, you should know that he gets misunderstood a LOT of times.
Sorry, but comments for this post are now closed.
