MASSIVE SPOILERS.~~~The show starts off very mellow and really dives deep into Gojo's internal struggles with society and how he's viewed by others and how his own anxiety can get the best of him. He assumes the worst in many things but somehow doesn't see the worst stuff that's right in his face (like the cleaning duty scene). The themes early on in the show were really heart touching and conveys a great message.

The way Gojo and Marin develop their relationship throughout the show was also very captivating in the way two polar opposites (a loner with no real friends and very antisocial and an upbeat popular girl who feels untouchable) guide eachother through the small things in life. As the show develops, you see how these two are more alike than you really think, and the way the flashbacks and scenes and dialogue all tie in, in very simple moments that mean a lot to the MC truly shows how he cherishes the memories is making with Marin. If you ever relate to certain struggles that the MC has, then these scenes really do reach out to you in a way that it wouldn't to most

The themes and messages sent throughout the show really do resonate with me and how the world around us is going at the moment. The constant negativity and borderline hatred for the small things that people enjoy is something we see around us everyday. Nowadays it feels like you have to hide away from the world, which is something Gojo spent most of his life doing. The same goes for Marin. A large part of this show is about being understood, the feeling of having someone in a different world from you, be so far yet so close at the same.

The dialogue really is poetic in some ways of this show that help carry out this message they're trying to send. A big one for me was "if you love something so much, gender shouldn't matter." At least that's what I remember being said. The freedom of expression is something that you see get hated on so much by people who don't understand you, or the meaning behind why you feel the way you feel about certain hobbies or topics. Regardless of who you are as a person, gender, race or anything, you be able to love what you want. I'd like to think they did a great job at expressing that. I feel a lost art in many pieces of media is the lack of passion. I felt as if there was something the author wanted you to grasp onto. Even through all the fanservice there was still something about this show that reaches out to you. To be able to tell a story through a cartoon but make it feel so real is something that I can really appreciate.

Show was pretty good in all honesty. Only problem has a lot to do with the fact all the characters are minors and the repeated sexual imagery of said minors was kind of off-putting. Especially the middle schooler idk why she HAD to look that way and have THOSE kinds of scenes put together. This show feels like a giant PSA but with boobs everywhere which is a little weird but the overall story is something that I believe to be great. I feel like there's no reason why these couldn't be college students. For that I do have to knock off a few points. I would write like a whole think piece on this but idk how great I am at getting so into detail. This is more just my thoughts and what really stood out to me. Great show.~~~

-Edit: Knocking off more points im really remembering how bad this show gets when it comes to fanservice.
