It is said worldwide "don't judge a book by its cover". Well, it couldn't be more truth in that when we discuss her. Being the only one of the other students that's sees everything in bright light, no matter how bad the odds are. It's almost like where we could just find someone like her in real life where even the death of somebody is interpreted as "previewing the afterlife" or "he wanted to get taller; that's why he used a rope".Come on:) Don't let that fool you, because sometimes the most generous ones are the most affected ones. The girl has a background with mind blows that unfortunately are found only in the manga. Nevertheless, it remains one of my favorites characters in anime, being also the complete opposite of Nozomu.
Ahh, and now to the extremes! Many people might recognize the voice actor for this, being the same behind Monogatari Series. Being annoyed by Kafuka and other students that either interprets something wrong or they show some hopes in their actions. He argues about everything that "attacked him" including the daily activities, society, concepts, and people's looks (or something alike). In all this "chaos" that surrounds him, the best possible way to get out of it is to end your life. Well, life has other plans for him so every attempt fails. Throughout the show, he'll begin to change, but not drastically.
Let's be honest for a second: we all had someone in either school, family, job, etc. that wanted that PERFECTION feeling no matter what, and I mean perfection in damn everything. Apart from that, there isn't much else to talk bout her...umm...oh wait...that part. Seems like being a perfectionist isn't enough, when you can, you know, make others be the same as you, BY USING VIOLENCE. (not exactly tho) She has her own ways of dealing with things, some unorthodox ways might say.
I think we can ~~all~~ most of agreeing on finding ourselves in her. What is her purpose? To be comfy, cute, and watch anime. OH MY GAD! Even when the teacher wants her out of the house, she ends up in school, but just there for the rest of the show. (and in some disturbing places). Keep in mind that hikikomori is still an issue not only in Japan but other countries as well, with even older people. I get it, it keeps us away from all that bs called society and responsibility but we can also miss so many things we would want to do like sports activities, camping, etc. (k I said enough)
There are many other characters I can just write them down here but u get the idea and it's best to discover them yourselves. Not mentioning their name but rather the traits there are still the stalker one, the only mobile phone one, the _bandaged_one (Evangelion ref), the exchange student one, the always sorry one, and yes there is also a normal student there, being teased for her normality by the others :)) like who would have known.
Again there isn't too much to say about this. It's Shaft ffs like you can expect kinda the same quality as the Monogatari series. It's a little bit lower bcz if I include the movies, Monogatari wins per total. Effects are also good, considering that year. Yea I know, there's been better animation way behind when Ghost in the Shell and Akira premiered, but take into consideration the concept that they are movies, more money invested and not everything was profit-oriented and deadline like nowadays.
Unfortunately, we can't expect something as good and breathtaking as idk Death Note, Kaiji, One Outs, u name it, but it's okay-ish overall. I mean we have some russian/french/venetian accordion-like songs that are pretty good, reminded me of some Madoka ones
Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei remains an amazing series that stands out from the other comedy-related shows with its concept and characters. It holds a dear place on my list and I would literally recommend it to anyone even if not into those genres/tags. The show doesn't really have a linear plot like after the first season it's oriented towards characters or other daily events to criticize em. If you want to just enjoy the show, give it time bcz I wasn't fully into it after the first season. The real ending and spoiler u'll need the manga for that. Thank you all for reading.
