My score of 9.8/10 does not represent an objective rating, but rather my enjoyment of the series.
Before we get to the overwhelming positives, let me get the ONE negative out of the way:
FUCK. KIMURA. i hate this man's guts. Every time he appears on screen i just get sad that he is tarnishing an otherwise perfect show. He is not funny in the slightest, has no redeeming qualities and has no character development whatsoever. He is just creepy and gross and unpleasant. He deserves to burn in Hell. i don't get why an otherwise incredibly wholesome show had to include this "character". In general, i don't get why so many anime need this "pervert" character that is either pedophilic, incestual or both. It's just not funny and takes me out of it so much. Thank god he wasn't there too much. Without him, i think my enjoyment rating wouldve been a 10.
Now that that's out of my system, let me mention some small things i wish i had seen:
Everything else about this show is perfect in my eyes.
The humor is definitely not for everyone, but i knew from the moment i saw the "OH MY GAH" clip on YouTube that it was exactly my thing. That clip alone actually made me watch the series and i'm happy to say that it was an excellent decision.
The jokes are unpredictable, goofy and have perfect comedic timing. i genuinely would constantly burst out laughing. Sure, the jokes aren't very complex or anything, but they would always get me anyway. And the delivery is always on point.
The voice acting is amazing. It's quite exaggerated, and the actors aren't afraid to really go all out. Every voice is perfectly cast in my opinion.
The animation is very simplistic and quite choppy, which not everyone will enjoy. However, i found it extremely charming and i grew to really love it. It fits the silliness perfectly and makes the physical comedy and wacky faces the characters make all the more hilarious.
i LOVE the main characters. i got so attached to them, and their shenanigans are so fun to watch. i could honestly watch them do anything and i'd love it.
The main cast from least favorite to favorite:
i also have to mention Yukari and Nyamo. i love their dynamic so much, and Yukari is insane. The whole Yukari-mobile gag is one of my favorites. Great characters.
There is no real overarching story obviously, except for the fact that the characters progress through all three years of high school over time. The ending of the show is perfect though and got me pretty emotional.
IN CONCLUSION
A genuinely hilarious show full of cute moments and lovable characters, including my favorite character ever. Basically a constant smile machine, except when Kimura is on screen. Excellent voice acting and charming animation. It is very simple and childish, and honestly kinda retarded. If that sounds like your thing, then DEFINITELY watch it. However, if that doesn't sound like it's for you, you probably won't like it. i think this is a show that will only be loved by a certain type of people, but most people would find dumb. If you're unsure, give the first episode a watch, and by the end of it you'll have made up your mind, guaranteed. As for me, i LOVED it. i'm so sad it's over.
