Only thoughts in anybody’s head are lust for the local teenager.
Impressions:
Yep. Certainly what I got from the manga. Random people stop by to announce what a well-adjusted and happy person she is, so she can smile and say “golly gee.” Or my favorites, the ones who show up to announce her backstory. I know when I go to the dry cleaner, the small talk I have with them is “Wow, you started this store two years ago, right? It sure has been two years.” The highlight of her day is when she runs into the local highschool boy so she can flirt with him. And go all out there. On her hands and knees, fixing his clothes, and then pulling down her apron so she can bend over and give him a full view of her cleavage. Not making the most convincing argument for just an innocent happy little show to end things. Also pretty certain half his lines were “Um” and “Uh.”
It certainly is what the kids call “slice of life.” No story, no comedy, just soporific music while an unnaturally chipper lady goes about doing laundry. Other than the obvious, it’s innocuous enough, I guess, but I still don’t see the point. In one ear, out the other, pretty literally since it loves to do montages of random town scenery to pad out scenes. What is there to say or even hope for with the show? That she gets with the kid? That next week has slightly different music and maybe it rains? At least she didn’t yell a lot.
