Probably my favorite. Yuuichirou is a charming older fella. Vibe so good I almost forgot that you can't hear his oden boiling. Breath of fresh air after the awful vibe of that last episode.
Rancid vibes with this one. Made me genuniely uncomfortable. I don't like the twins.
The lack of ambience actually works in favor of this episode as it takes place in a library. I do wish the voice acting was a bit more hushed given the setting.
Back again in silent settings that shouldn't be. This time its a cafeteria and we literally get a panning shot showing ppl talking but we sure don't hear anything
Unfortunately I hate babysitting so this episode is not for me. The guy for this episode is a 5 yr old kid. No romantic undertones this time thankfully
Chuunibyou guy on a school rooftop. Him breaking character is pretty funny and cute
Ok so the lack of sound doesn't get in the way for once. Ryuushi is so adorable and bashful. This one did make me sleepier so hey it did its job.
And we're back to Merry tho he's a bit different this time. I prefer big Merry but little Merry is cute too ig. Real clingy tho.
While Eiji is pretty cute, the setting being on a visibly crowded train while being deathly quiet is bothering me so much. His lil accent and bowling pin hairclip is endearing I cant lie.
No sound effect for the door opening off to a great start. We don't even get to hear him play the violin??? Like it's dead silent... The guy's whole thing is music and there just is none??? Genuinely baffling.
Yea i don't like they way he was looking at me in the beginning... Again this needs some ambience we're in a moving car this time. It just feels so awkwardly empty.
Hey so I'm probably the target audience (woman who likes anime boys and some occasional asmr) and I'm watching right before bed. Yea I don't rlly like it. This desperately needs some soft music in the bg. Merry is pretty cute at least.
A gentle close by bringing back the previous shown character makes the closure more awesome . Loved the character presentation and the overall ending of this episode with some warm emotions .
This episode introduces Yūichirō Iizuka, a mature forty-one-year-old street stall vendor. The setting takes place outdoors at a cozy food stand on a cold night. He serves you comfort food and listens to your problems. His calm, fatherly wisdom offers a warm sanctuary. Loved the character presentation .
Well it was okey ! The setting is a spacious, traditional Japanese room. Two characters teach you the delicate art of traditional flower arrangement. Their highly playful, overlapping teasing brings a dynamic and lively energy.
A new character one again is quite a new vibe .The setting takes place entirely inside a quiet public library near closing time. He notices your extreme exhaustion and speaks to you in a gentle, hushed whisper. His passion for books creates a highly soothing, academic oasis.
The setting takes place inside a relaxed lounge space. He is completely addicted to his smartphone and texts you even while sitting right next to you. His casual, modern banter offers a fun, relatable dynamic.
The perspective shifts to a brightly lit bedroom scenario. Instead of romance, this short focuses on wholesome, sibling-style babysitting dynamics. His immense, playful energy provides an adorable, lighthearted change of pace.
The setting is a quiet bedroom context where he is brooding about an upcoming school sports event. Wearing a dramatic eyepatch, his angsty, theatrical "chuunibyou" persona brings a funny and entertaining flair .Loved this !
New one ! The setting takes place during a quiet, outdoor stargazing session under a clear night sky. MC here is incredibly polite, bashful, and passionate about astronomy. His gentle, dreamy cadence offers a highly therapeutic escape.
