New Anime

A Couple of Cuckoos S1 + S2 Review — C

An infuriatingly indecisive boy pisses off everyone.

This manga is by the author of Yankee-kun and Megane-chan and Yamada and the Seven Witches, and capitalizes on exactly the same thing. I feel like all of these have translated much better as manga where you can read them faster— it drags a bit as an anime. The art is not as good and I oddly hate all the female characters’ lips in the anime.

It goes nowhere for most of the two seasons and ends with things unresolved. If you care just read the manga instead.

Storytelling – C – Will they, won’t they…? For eternity
Voice – C – Seen this story a million times. Which sometimes is fine.
Characters – C – I truly despise both the main character and the purple girl. What is wrong with these people.
Attention Grab – C – Finished it… somehow.
Production – C – Looks okay.
Overall – C

Recommendations – The rare case where I ship the (step-)sister, if only because she actually gets along with the dude.
