ROMANTIC KILLER ANIME REVIEW
-WATARU MOMOSE
I love this anime so much! Each episode is entertaining and you'll really have a good laugh. Sadly though, since other hype animes been released at the same time, it doesn't get the attention it deserves.
Our protagonist, Hoshino Anzu, is a weeb whose life revolves around video games, chocolate and her cat. Due to some incident, she find herself being the center of a real life otome situation which shifts her life around. What I love about this series is that there's no fan service, no perfect guy clinging to the female lead, and no dumb female lead. It's rare to see anime that doesn't add those cliché things just to make the audience stay.
Who wouldn't want a real otome life, right? But showing the opposite reaction of Hoshino makes it interesting and exciting. You could never resist to love her character. It's not perfect, but she's the type that you want to be friend with. Ah, I want a friend like her! She has a strong personality, but at the same time, she's lovable and cute. It's real fun to see her struggle with avoiding the love scenarios set up to trap her. Her, having no interest in love, is no problem at all. Also! This anime doesn't have fever episode, school excursion episode, which made it rare. It's like a rule for this kind of genre, but having none of it doesn't make you feel like you're missing something.
Aside from the comedy side of this series, it's interesting to watch the characters show their weakness and flaws, especially for main characters. We're so full of main anime characters that's too perfect to be real, especially for romance anime. The main male lead, having a tragic back story and a trauma to overcome with at the end of the series, is too precious. Female Lead, being the one who saves instead of being saved, is definitely a plus!
