Very light spoilers ahead almost spoilerfree. I tend to be very wary when it comes to the Shoujo genre due to the amount of clichs Ill be facing ahead of me. But its alright I do not mind a clich as long as its well executed. This one was disastrous. The characters: 1/10 I think the worst thing about the anime was its characters. Extremely horrendous from the main characters to the very useless ones. Lets start with the main characters: Takumi Usui: I think I should start making a list of my most hated characters and Im sure Usui will top that list. I have never seen such an atrocious character in my life like this before. If I had one word to describe Usui with it will be: stalker. Usui is a literal stalker that started following Ayuzawa everywhere she went. We dont see much about his character. We dont see him doing anything but stalking Ayuzawa. Its beyond me why every girl in the school worships him. They dont like him they literally worship the dude. Every single person in the school worships him let it be male or female. For no damn reason. Sure hes good looking but thats all. Hes a cold emotionless expressionless character that rejects girls in the worst way possible. He does not to talk to anyone has no friends and does not do anything but stalk Ayuzawa. It seriously got creepy. He would even casually pat her head halfhug her or calls her his maid or his in front of people despite her continuously telling him not to casually touch her. He repeatedly makes her uncomfortable and tensed. I dont know about you but if the girl I like does not like my presence I wouldnt be around her 24/7. He went as far as pretending to be a stalker when there were rumours of stalkers targeting maids so shed be ready. Thats the kind of a creep he is. Misaki Ayuzawa: The demonic Class President who scares off boys and helps girls. As its quite obvious in the synopsis Misaki isnt your average girl. Shes not so very feminine an Aikido kickass and a workaholic. Shes a very cheesy character of the notlikeothergirls theme. But a character can only get so clich. Misaki exceeded the limit. The anime wanted to show how much of an oh so strong independent woman it got so annoying. Shes the top in academics the top in sports the Class President who handles all kinds of responsibilities and organises events. And she also has a parttime job as a maid in cafe. Shes hardworking determined selfless accepting thoughtful hotheaded and a tomboy. On top of that she does not have a single breakdown. Shes completely one dimensional annoying and boring. I think its the worst version of a tsundere I have ever seen. A very forgettable character. If anything she came off as a sadist who likes to scare boys and a masochist who likes to be in pain. The supporting characters: You shouldnt really expect any meaningful supporting characters when the main characters themselves are one dimensional so here I am repeating again every single supporting character is a stupid one dimensional airhead. And seriously what is WRONG with the whole stalker idea? Not only does Ayuzawa have a main stalker she also has 3 other stalkers that go to her cafe every single day until theyre penniless because Ayuzawa is kawaiiii even though she was their enemy at the beginning and they hated her guts. It IS NOT OK to stare at a girl at your school every day at her parttime job. The supporting characters can be distributed into 3 groups: A. The stalkers: mentioned above. B. The dumb airheads: all her coworkers at school and basically every other girl in the anime. C. The worshippers: The worshippers are basically the rest of the school. We have: 1. 5 boys who look exactly the same who worship Ayuzawa because of how smart she is and how much they want to be like her. They also follow her everywhere in the school 2. The rest of the school: Usui worshippers. Every time he opens his mouth they fangirl and drool Not literally at his words. Like hes a god. The story: 2/10 One point for the idea. Its your typical tough girl with an ohImnotlikeothergirls theme and your average hot boi that everyone is head over heels for while the only person who grabs his attention is the one who does not give a damn about him the tough girl. Its a very famous clich especially in the Shoujo genre and if it can be done well then it can be good. I think this version of it was the worst I have ever read/seen. The anime is mostly a very tedious Slice of Life about overused one dimensional characters. Its dragging extremely boring full of unnecessary details with a very shitty romanceif I dare call this creepy thing they had a romance. Nothing ever truly happens. Romance lovers should skip this anime as well theres a very limited amount of romantic scenes and a lot of awkward ones. Though to be fair the final scene at the final episode was decent. The Art: 4/10 It was cringy. The characters are welldrawn but would alternate between a decent drawing and a crappy 5yearold scribbles a lot. The sound: 4/10 It was okay. The openings arent very bad and the voices are kind of decent but the music was a bit underwhelming. Easily forgettable. Enjoyment: below zero. Nothing about the anime was enjoyable there is not a single thing you can find even slightly amusing and not a single character you can root for. It was torturous. Overall: 2/10 Appalling. A very terrible experience.
