This is a reverse anti harem romcom that is a soul sister of Tomo-Chan.
I didn't have a clue what to expect and can't even remember why I tried it but a MC who is only interested in cats and video games quickly became one of my favorite characters in memory. Azuna is normal. She's not broken or missing anything. She just knows what she wants the most and is dedicated to it. And with outside interference her priorities are challenged. But she is who she is and it'd delightful to watch. If you haven't seen it yet I encourage you to pop over to Netflix and give it a twirl. Without going into any spoilers I must say I kept waiting for the show to give in and disappoint me in some fundamental way. But it really did remain engaging and enjoyable. I'm sure it won't be for everyone. The MC may not be relatable for everyone. But she's going to connect with a lot of people. And the animation they do with her face to express her emotions cracked me up. Letting her inner barbarian, etc, come out visually was a surprise that I came to look forward to. Not sure how Netflix landed this one but I hope they keep doing more of this caliber. I'm giving it an 8+/10 and may go back and rewatch it soon. |
