This anime is one of the most incredible I've seen, is full of moments that will make you spend good times, and moments where you remember that the important thing is friends and family, and more important we don't let adversity overcome us and smile to life, and also without forgetting that we must preserve our innocence.

A good anime!

If you like anime and have ADHD + fillers = You Gonna Love This

There is no moment where this anime is silent... Constant talking and nothing important really said, it's like an overthinking head full of thoughts.
Anime: The art style is really nice, the scenery is great, the constant dynamic is a bit too much for me and the story is... not an actual story it's just fillers with a plot that is the furthest thing in the background that you will actually forget about.
Not like other anime where it's constantly reminded "oh you have to slay the dragon and rescue the kingdom" every other episode, this one is like "soooooo like uhhhh what? OH RIGHT, there is actually a super important thing for you to experience in your life but let's not focus about it and get distracted by everything else".
Oh yeah it's all good vibes and happiness. Very cute stuff/colors.
Me: I didn't like the execution and how the main story wasn't the main focus of the anime. I watched this just because of the movie that I found and wanted to see the prequel series towards it. First couple of episodes were interesting because the plot was in the foreground. Also I didn't like the pacing, too fast-paced, reminds me of tiktok brainwashing of 1-3s attention span...
Like this series could have been done in literally 1 movie of 1-1:30hr and done in a more interesting/fun manner. Instead this is just a compilation of fillers just like you'd see in other similar series, but all put in one place. So yeah, time to watch the movie.

This was such a joy to watch, I made it a routine to watch 2 episodes every night before bed, or early in the morning. It was an excellent way to start the day, or to end the night. The series has an amazing atmosphere, the music is excellent, some of the best I've heard in anime. The soundtrack really gives off an Animal Crossing vibe, like Wild World or City Folk. It took me back to the days of playing City Folk on my Wii, and making sure everything was just right in my little village. It reminded me of my best friend in City Folk, his name was Bizkit, he was such an amazing little pupper. The best thing about the show was the amazing art direction, it's got this beautifully bubbly vibe, it isn't too much but it also isn't too out there, it's a safe looking anime and I mean that in the greatest way possible. I genuinely became strongly invested in Dera's story arc, and the overarching themes of Community really made this show one I'll remember when I want that warm hug feeling. It's an emotional journey too, I almost teared up multiple times, Anko had an emotional arc involving this boy she had a crush on, and it has a satisfying conclusion, even though I felt like it could've been a bit more fleshed out of the show had a longer episode list. It has a movie too, I've yet to watch it and I'm pretty sure it's its own contained story rather than a bonafide continuation of the show's plot. My only critique is that it left me wanting more, and I wish it would've had more plot lines involving Mochi, there were so many mochi puns, and so many episodes that involved the mochi store Tamako and her family ran, but I feel like it could've benefitted from a chance to completely nerd out over mochi and have an episode with a stronger emphasis on the food. Other than that I enjoyed the story and I can't wait to continue my journey with these characters when I eventually watch Tamako Love Story. Kyoto Animation is a studio I'm very familiar with, but I haven't watched a single anime by them until now. I'm very pleased with this one and my hopes are high going forward, there's a lot to respect about the studio and I think I'm gonna become a big fan of theirs soon.
