Anime ATM 90 Akkun to Kanojo

So I haven't been watching much anime recently. I guess that's probably due to the fact that I just study all day and then in my free time I usually do whatever. But because I seldom have huge chunks of time to binge all at once, I usually find myself turning towards Youtube videos for that 15 minutes of standalone entertainment than watching a compartment of a series.

That's why to get back into the swing of things I watched this anime. Each episode is suuuuuper short, at like 3 minutes long, with an OP but no ED (an OP you can skip though because I wasn't a huge fan) so it's easy to watch all in one sitting.

{Spoilers: Jokes on you there's no spoilers because there's exactly no plot}

So this anime centers around this couple: Nontan and Akkun. Akkun is a clear tsundere. He acts really mean to Nontan, while secretly wishing he could be nicer to her because she's his angel. In any other circumstance his stalker tendencies would be super creepy, but because this is such a slice of life anime he gets away with it. Bur if this were real life and your boyfriend/girlfriend/S.O. puts a secret mic on you and listens to you hum while trying to sleep and has pictures of you all over their wall please call 911. That's not healthy.
I choked because this scene was funny, but seriously peep all those Nontan pictures on the wall. Yikes.


And then Nontan is kind of just your run of the mill airhead but strong-willed and super kind anime girl protagonist. You've seen her before and you'll see her again so there's nothing much to say besides that she's a very sweet girl and she and Akkun make a good couple.

Besides the main two, there are two other couples that the show kind of revolve around for some jokes that we've all seen before with the pairings of like the "otaku ikemen boy" and then Akkun's younger sister or the "cat girl" and then she falls in love with her teacher for honestly no real reason.
Ah this part was also funny. Above is Irie (cat-esque girl) after Sensei praises her


This is definitely a show you shouldn't take too seriously. It's super short. It's super fluffy. There's really not a whole lot going on, so if you have the time...I suggest honestly that you watch something else besides this anime. There's definitely many better and more fleshed out versions of this anime. Sure, it's kind of sweet and it's short, but I think your time would be better invested in watching something more fleshed out and hopefully fulfilling.
