Surprisingly good anime with an impactful story and great animation. Romance, comedy, drama and supernatural themes are perfectly balanced and complete each other, making it enjoyable, entertaining and also deep.
For those who are planning to watch this anime, you need to know that this anime is composed of several individual stories that experience a supernatural phenomenon known as “Puberty Syndrome”. The MC acts as the main subject that connects all the stories together.
The first story is about Mai Sakurajima that was having her “Puberty Syndrome” and starting to disappear from everyone else except from the memories of students from their school and the MC (Sakuta Azusagawa). This is the story that set the tone to the rest of the series and become the cornerstone to this anime.
This story helps to establish the relationship between MC and Heroine and the general theme of this anime. The first story is well-crafted. Romance and dere elements between these two is really entertaining. You could say that this story manages to set the tone for this anime and helps to amplify the tones for the following stories.
The relationship between the MC and Heroine does become one of the crucial factors that help this anime to become more entertaining as we explore the puberty syndrome experience by characters in the anime.
Even without action and grand supernatural power involved, the MC still gives the vibe of Hero and saves those who are in need, especially the main characters in each story.
The personalities of Mai Sakurajima between her dere, jealousy, romance and clingy as a girlfriend is so good that contribute to most of the entertaining scenes in the anime. Even though Mai Sakurajima has not as much expected screen time for the heroine, her appearance and the scene that she is involved in is well crafted and can be said among the best scenes in the anime.
Other characters are also well-defined and serve its purpose and not just a side character to help improve the story in the anime. In short, each character has its purpose in the development of the anime from one story to another.
This is one of the anime that I don’t mind re-watching for a few times in the future. It’s quite heavy but entertaining and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this anime to those who are looking for a good romance in high school with balanced comedy and supernatural themes.
