Ore no Nounai Sentakushi ga, Gakuen Love Comedy wo Zenryoku de Jama Shiteiru

Ore no Nounai Sentakushi ga, Gakuen Love Comedy wo Zenryoku de Jama Shiteiru, or to shorten, Noucome. It is a light novel based on Takeru Kasukabe anime and anime premiered in 2013. STORY: The anime tells the story of Kanade Amakusa. Kanade is a somewhat special teenager, as this gifted with a curse, "the curse of absolute elections." This curse forces him to have to opt for a series of not very nice choices for him or for them in public. You would think that would not have to choose, but it is inevitable, because if you do not choose at a certain time, the head begins to ache. These decisions undoubtedly spoil the way that people see him in carrying out any of these elections ... When he think you he have to continue the rest of his life, a girl, apparently sent by God himself, to help him overcome a series of tests that allow he to get rid of lifetime that curse appears that forced to choose inopportune situations. Because of their nefarious actions accordingly election, will become one of the five rejected from the school, damaging his reputation within the school, but benefiting, when meeting new friends who will accompany you throughout the anime and its lifetime. The tests that allow he to get rid of the curse will not be entirely easy, surely making God pass good times laughing at situations that commands him to do, provided that if at any time fail one of the tests, will to stay with the curse of life. CHARACTERS: Kanade: Kanade is the main character of the series who is suffering from "Absolute Choices", a curse that forces him to choose one of two or more options. If he doesn't choose, he develops an unbearable migraine. In the beginning, he meets Chocolat and learns that to end the curse, he has to complete a series of "missions". Failing to finish any mission before its deadline will result in the curse staying forever. As the result of "Absolute Choices", his classmates view him as a weird person and thus he has become one of the "Reject Five". Chocolat: The beautiful girl who falls from the sky after Amakusa chooses the option "a beautiful girl falls from the sky" when given an Absolute Choice on his way home from school one day. She chooses the name "Chocolat" when Kanade gives her a box of chocolates to eat. She was sent from the God World to help Kanade complete the "missions" in order to remove the curse. However, she is quite air-headed, making her ineffective when assisting Kanade. According to her, she lost her memory prior to receiving the mission, including how to resolve the curse. In the second novel, she transfers into Kanade's class as his "pet". Sometimes, when she bumps her head or gets drunk, an inner Chocolat, who has not lost her memories, appears for a short time. Unlike her counterpart, this Chocolat is smart, helpful, and has a better idea about the curse. She reverts to her usual self if she bumps her head again or becomes sober. According to her, Chocolat will return to the god world once the curse has ended. At one point, after regaining her memory, she tries to seduce Kanade, but fails because of a chocolate box hitting her head, returning her to normal. ART: The anime does not have many effects. It is an anime that develops life at school and therefore not needed many special effects. They could have been better drawn characters and landscapes, as it becomes an anime that teaches you the landscapes of urban Japan, and very poorly. Enjoyment: The anime is fun, and it's a comedy that makes you laugh at the various decisions that Kanade has to overcome. If it is true that could be better and have an argument that makes you hook up a little more.

It's worth noting that I watched the first four episodes of Noukome a couple of months earlier than I watched the rest. Honestly, I really wanted to like it. The premise is good, a highschool student is randomly forced to choose between often ridiculous and embarrassing choices. If he doesn't, he experiences extreme physical pain. To lift this "curse", he must complete a series of near impossible, and ludicrous missions. It's a good set-up. So I guess I should explain why I didn't like this anime. The first reason is probably "Chocolat", the support character meant to be helping the Protagonist. To put it bluntly, she's completely fan-service. She can pull cute faces, do what should be cute things, but it's non-stop with her, and it makes her character boring. She could be redeemable if she wasn't an airhead all of the time, but honestly, if she wasn't a character I don't think it would have changed much. There's an episode where she's not like this, and honestly it's a good episode. She's a lot of fun to watch when she's serious, and it makes her cute scenes all the better when they happen. The second reason is the protagonist himself. At the beginning of the anime he's introduced as a normal guy plagued by the curse which ends up making everyone think he's a weirdo. Because of the curse he's labelled one of the "reject 5", the 5 lowest people on the popularity list. It is set up that everything strange about him is a series of coincidence, misunderstanding and of course, the curse. By the end of the anime he ends up actually just being a weirdo. It tries to touch back to misunderstanding in some scenes, but it doesn't really work. It bugs me that he wasn't overly consistent. Personality seems to be an on-going problem, especially with the other supporting characters. Yuouji, Seira and most of the other characters seem to be more of a list of stereotypes and defining traits rather than characters. There's a lot of explaining or showing a dominant trait for each of them, but not a lot of development or interests/likes/dislikes explained. It's difficult to become invested in them. The exception to this is Yukihira, who receives a lot of development over the course of the series. The comedy isn't bad either, I can see it's funny, but I'm struggling to laugh at it. I get in a good chuckle here and there, but something about the choices make it seem really forced at times. Maybe that's apart of the joke? I'm not sure, but if you've seen the first episode, you've already seen the highlight of the series. The art style is different too, not bad, but again, something about it just doesn't sit too well with me. It's not a bad anime by any means. It's just not particularly good either. If you have some time and you're interested in where it might take you, give it a watch. But if you're really after something that will keep you invested, maybe something else.

So Sentakushi is another High School romcom with way too much fanservice to be taken even remotely seriously. I was all-in-all very disappointed with this anime, because the premise seemed interesting, a boy with a “Absolute Multiple Choice”, meaning that on occasion he’ll see 2+ choices, and he has do do/pick one of the choices, or he’ll get an increasingly painful headache very quickly. The catch, is that these choices are often completely ridiculous to the point of sheer stupidity. Our story picks up with a really cool scene all about how choices shaped the world that we live in today. Soon after this ends, we meet our protagonist, Kanade Amakusa. Kanade has recently developed his Absolute Choice curse for little-to-no explained reason, and as a result, his reputation has quickly taken a nose dive due to his otherwise unexplained bouts of randomness and creepiness (IE, streaking, acting like a pig, sexual molestation/touching) One day, Kanade is walking home from school when suddenly his AMC starts acting up, and due to his choice, “A beautiful young girl falls from the sky”. This girl has amnesia, and all she knows is that she is from heaven. It is soon revealed that the girl loves food, and when she attempts to eat Kande’s expensive chocolates, she asks, “Do you love chocolates?” resulting in her choosing her name as Chocolat. After choosing between death, and letting Choclat stay (which, of course, he chose the latter), our hero soon receives a phone call from God! After proving that he really is God through a series of funny means, he informs Kande that there is a way to remove his AMC curse. As it turns out, the only way to remove the curse is by successfully completing a series of “trials” with the help of Chocolat. The characters in this series were interesting enough, albeit copy/paste of other popular characters and archetypes; but the problem lies in the complete lack of character development, even when it would have been incredibly easy and more satisfying. There are many important secondary in this anime, and as a result, I’ll only be covering four of the members of the Reject 5 (the least popular kids on campus). Furano Yukihara is a strange combination of Tsundere and Kuudere, though I can’t really complain about this… odd mixture due to her pulling it off quite well. My problem with Yukihara is that she had so much behind the scenes character development, yet she is never fully utilized. Regardless, she (in my opinion) has way too much Tsun and virtually no Dere. The last major character that I’ll talk about is Yuoji Oka, a Deredere character that is mostly immune to Kanade’s strangeness (and sexual advances, to an extent) due to her own out-there and crazy personality. Once again, nothing really stuck out musically, including the opening or closing credits. The opening video, however, was at least interesting and complemented the show in just the perfect atmosphere and humor. I’d love to rant about the ending and the waaaaaaay underused character, but I’m trying to keep these spoiler-free. Overall, I, as I said earlier, am very disappointed in this show’s lack fulfilling of potential. It had a very interesting premise, and if it had been handled with a bit more maturity, Sentakushi could have been a diamond in the rough of romcoms. I’m going to have to give this a 6/10 just because it had enough plot and questions to keep me coming back.

(TLDR review below, as usual, thanks for reading c:) Everything you do is based on some kind of choice (discluding reflexes). Subconsciously choosing which path to take on, big or small. Imagine that being made apparent with a twist of being always bombarded with asinine decisions. Enter NouCome. It's your choice from here, but you have to choose one. 1. Continue reading. 2. Discontinue reading. 3. Look at the score, agree with it, and click helpful vote (the most recommended and most popular choice these days). NouCome is an unprecedented anime that takes daily routines to an outrageous degree, very literally, resulting in a relatively funny anime that would fit the generation it resides in. I'm not one to snipe "generic" anime and present them from the head as the disease that intoxicates this medium. Whilst NouCome takes this unique premise and falls victim to standards of its origins and generation every now and then, one has to steer clear of the clouds and draw vision to the fact that it is one of the better anime of its time, something to not take too lightly. The thing that makes this anime good is mainly execution. This is ridiculous, from Amakusa's social life being scorched to something unrecognisable to the other weirdo girls in this show, there's a good mix to play around with and create a ton of funny situations for a wide magnitude of reasons. Slipping over banana peel = le comedy 100? Or maybe some absurd cringe choice like stripping in public. It is so asinine, so wild, it shouldn't work, but it does because that's how wild this whole situation is. Some common harem tripe like this shouldn't have humour like this that exponentially makes it better, but imagine if you were in that situation? (assume no deconstruction plot no one asked for too.) It would be a ridiculously unbearable life, for anyone. It's really good stuff made by someone who seems to have some understanding of how people work, I suppose in this case it is more of a comedic legend, but either way, still very good on this team's behalf. If the earlier paragraph didn't give it away, there's not actually a lot of substance to this anime; it is an unfortunate fate given the number of times this anime opens doors to something potentially well worth the time than just silly antics continuously for 10 episodes. Is it the curse of being a light novel? Was it the standards at the time? It's disheartening this anime would not break out of the mould, but it is what it is. It's also slightly annoying to hint at going on potential tangents in the plot only to not do anything about it, or in other words relating to this anime, literally go back to square one. As if change = new episode idea, nothing more, nothing less. Maybe down the line, if this anime were to continue, this cemented reality would be false, but I wouldn't know and I don't have intentions to continue reading as of this moment. What can I say though? Despite the unwanted leftover taste, the changes that arise every now and then are still pleasant to see. I guess it depends on your tolerance. The characters in this anime are what you would expect of your typical harem cast and main character. They are nothing special, but the atmosphere they reside in makes for a somewhat special time, which is why the content is so loveable. I say this all, but these characters actually do a decent job at, well, being people. As strange as it sounds, Yukihira, Yuuouji, and Chocolat have more to them than just being some cardboard harem girls. They felt particular ways, want particular things, and have some story to them (more true for Chocolat, but that's a given). Whilst it doesn't suddenly give them free tickets to live rent-free in you, one would still have to respect the time given to elaborate the personality of these characters more than to just poop them out as in done elsewhere, everywhere for the most part. You average viewer may not care too much, but I won't go out of my way to lambast these girls unfairly. The production here is very much so as you would expect, however, I noticed no apparent flaws with Diomedéa's work. From what I recall, there was no rushing and everything was clean. It's pretty standard stuff; nothing amazing to see here. The same is also true for the soundtrack, seiyuu, and all the other audio stuff. Nothing more, nothing less. Everything was really just centred around the story really. ————— TLDR Review: Story - 7: Good original story that isn't entirely bad. Also has some meaningful moments that come up every now and then; just doesn't nothing with them in the long run. Visuals - 7: Decent enough for their time. Looks clean too. Audio - 6: Basic whatever you usually get. Characters - 7: Characters that aren't just "harem girl" full stop. Have some life to them. Enjoyment - 8: It's very funny and this humour doesn't die out so fast. ————— That's all I have to really say about NouCome. It is enjoyable, very enjoyable. Having a look at the old comments I have made on this anime, it is apparent I enjoyed this quite a bit. It should be noted that it is not a dauntingly hard task to make me laugh though; this anime was clever in its jokes, however, so it is nothing too box standard, even for its time, but those jokes crop up as a little treat that every now and then. I would recommend this anime to all looking for a nice and fast harem series that doesn't demand too much. Again, nothing special, but who cares, if you are here for some fun, and some potential reflection on a comical premise in reality, then NouCome awaits you. Also, best girl is Yukihira.

If you go into this show expecting dumb fun and your typical harem setting then I can absolutely recommend this show because it will nail those expectations. If you want something more than your typical school harem show then I think this show can still be intriguing to you because of the unique premise and ongoing problem that plagues the main character of this show. The characters follow typical anime tropes and they're for the most part not very well developed which makes it harder to actually care about most of the girls in this show. The main character himself somehow receives the least character development out of almost every other character and doesn't really improve himself or try to learn any lesson that's trying to be taught to him. Besides some really stupid moments by the MC himself there isn't anything too damaging in the character department that lowers my enjoyment of the show. The sound and art designs aren't anything too flashy or amazing they're fine and some would say quite average for a show like this. Overall this show is not something to be taken too seriously and the comedic moments can be pretty great at times. It's not bad but it's also not great if you have time to spare and are a fan of the genre I can recommend this show.

There's an interesting hook to My Mental Choices Are Completely Interfering With My School Romantic Comedy: A god has bestowed (cursed, bestowed, tomayto, tomahto) Kanade Amakusa with choices. These choices show up as multiple choice-style—do option A or do option B—and one of the choices has to be completed. With a first episode that anchors the idea of choices that have rippling historical effects, the stage is set for an anime that has something to say, right? Not quite. Instead we get your average, seen-it-a-thousand-times harem. Our poor, oblivious, choice-laden protagonist swamped with girls about ready to burst with their secret love for him. This, somehow, despite the fact that his choices—required, impassable—lean towards the crude, embarrassing, degrading. In fact, his erratic behavior has him listed as, officially, the least popular student in school. There's a loose storyline re: a series of quests to remove the curse, although focusing on that may end up more disappointing than it's worth. The quests are best seen—as with his choices—as arenas for comedic mishap, not as the driving narrative force. (The ending, fwiw, had an opportunity to really make an interesting statement about choices and sacrifice, but it dodges that in favor of, well, the way it does end.) Embracing the frivolity probably keys into the target demographic better than what I'd have liked to see, so take that as you will. The swift 10 episodes make that frivolity easily consumed and, while any larger questions are dodged, just the idea of these god-imposed mental choices is a fun enough concept to make this a relatively decent watch.

I've reviewed this years back shortly it after it aired and praised it for what it is. And having rewatched it just yesterday and viewing it from a more "matured" set of eyes, the anime still holds up extremely well despite being 7 years old. This is a chaotic show full of random, illogical humour. You cannot go in and expect a serious show. If you do, you'll definitely fail to see why many praise this show and appreciate its weird, unique humour. Imagine a galge/dating sim where your choices influences the story, the idea is put into motion and is the main driving force of the series, except the choices makes no sense. The story premise is pretty generic, a high schooler with potential love interests and is a bit "dense" to notice their feelings. But he's not the sort that will annoy the viewer since he is self aware of his situation and understands his own worth. And more often than not, he's too preoccupied about his own mental choices so he neglects the love interests feelings. But is this the correct choice/approach to curing himself of his mental choices? The story does tick all the boxes to being a anime romcom, with a a childhood friend, a tsundere (I'd argue a kuu-tsundere), the "exchange student" and obligatory pool episode. The ost is not bad, it's not underwhelming but not outstanding either. Not too many memorable ones, but there is definitely effort being put in, especially the Shirobuta-kun song as well as Kanade's "alternate future breast song". Not to mention one of the upbeat opening sang by Afilia Saga, S・M・L☆. The characters can be viewed as generic and you'll immediately notice their character trope if you've watched a lot of anime. But it utilises their traits well especially with their dialogue execution. The interaction between the characters is what makes the series shine in comparison with a lot of other series out there. It never feels like there's a dull moment when the love interests are together with the protagonist. They all have their roles to play to drive the narrative forward. A boke-tsukkomi routine if you will. It's still a worthwhile series to go back to, now that the anime scene is flooded with a lot of issekai animes and other generic light novel series. This is a rom-COM series that I will always hold in a high regard cause it is arguably the epitome of Japanese light novel humour with its puns (that sadly almost never works when translated), occasional slapstick and perverted humour. It's a real shame this series didn't really take off since it had a lot of potential. I'm sure a lot of re-reviewers or rewatchers are begging for a season 2 since the light novel is finished, I'm on the same boat for sure. And sadly, there is no official translations for this series either.

I originally watched the anime adaptation of Ore no Nounai Sentakushi ga, Gauken Love Comedy wo Zenryuko de Jama Shiteiru (I'll refer to it as Noucome) in early-mid 2013 when it was first released. I was in middle school and had bad experiences at the time, so the comedic nature and romantic themes of the show pulled me in and had me embarrassed, laughing, and tied to the characters all at the same time. Going back to the show nearly 8 years later as a fully grown adult, I found myself reliving those same feelings of embarrassment, huge laughing fits, and connections to the characters I had all those years ago. While I have to admit the ending was a little bit annoying and some character development plot points were left kind of stagnant, that's just to be expected of a romantic comedy manga/anime, so I can't deduct points for that. The artwork is a little strange for an anime produced at the time considering that shows like Toradora existed 5 years earlier than Noucome but had a much less jarring art style, so I couldn't give it super high points for that. Although I don't have the information about how big the workforce or budget was when producing the show. The story is extremely funny and embarrassing at the same time, which is exactly what I am looking for in an anime like Noucome. The relationships that are built steadily throughout the show have you question which girl you want Kanade to end up with in the end. The uncertainty of what situation Kanade will have to put up with thanks to his curse adds a whole other aspect of mystery and suspense to every scene he's interacting with any of the several love interests in the show. All in all, I would give the show a 9/10 for how its been able to capture my heart and laughter for so many years again and again. If a season 2 ever comes out, I hope they could fix the issues with some of the art design as well as finish up some story arcs that were left up in the air. Then, I would give it a 10/10!

Honestly, I didn’t mind this series, aside from some weird episodes that didn’t really belong. The characters we’re kind of enjoyable and I was able to enjoy most of what it had to offer. Story – 7 I personally like this idea, but the problem is the execution. The idea that something in his mind makes him commit to two different choices is fun, but startling at times. Some of the requests that his mind makes are absolutely gross and made me feel a bit uncomfortable at times. Art – 5 Basic, nothing ground breaking. Some fun character reactions and a few lewd scenes. This series has nothing to scream about in this department. Sound – 3 During the writing of this review, I have completely blanked on the OP and ED. The OP and ED are forgettable and have nothing going for them. They are quite upbeat and cheery, but it just isn’t catchy or memorable at all. Characters – 4 With reasonable characters and the story entirely based around the reactions of others, it’s disappointing to see such bland characters Amakusa is an ok protagonist, but some of the stuff he does is just bad, just bad. I really don’t enjoy his reactions and his story. Choclat is introduced at the start and has possible the least useful part in this series, she’s meant to be a NPC guide for Amakusa, but she’s completely brain dead and forgot everything. This turns more annoying than fun. Furano is the quiet girl, and with Ouka they save the characters for me. They are kind of fun to watch and the interactions they have are good, but im not into the emotionless type of person. Ouka is the other saviour. As the obligatory bright, happy, cheery girl of the series, it’s fun to see this character succeed. The other characters are quite forgettable (Kind of like this series), but they bring some good moments. Overall – 5 Yeah, it’s not great, it’s not bad. It’s not even in the middle, it’s has been cast to the realm of forgetability and shall never return. I wouldn’t really recommend it, but if you have time and don’t care about anything. Why not…?

Generic harem anime with some fun humor. If harem animes are Happy meals then this one is a happy meal with a super cool toy inside. That toy is the silly humor that the main character gets into due to that "Absolute Choice". Its the only redeeming feature in this bland burger, but it is a pretty strong redeeming factor. Aside from that, we have standard nice guy protagonist #1598 and female characters who are a set of different anime girl tropes with not much underneath except pantsu. In the end, its funny but forgettable. Harem Development Index: 3/10 From start to end, the harem just seems like a default setting with no reasoning behind it and zero progress with any of the girls by the end.

Absolute Choice is not an amazing series, but neither is it terrible- in many ways it is average, and in some ways, it almost exceeds expectations, almost. The story,sadly, is quite predictable despite the premise allowing interesting twists and turns. Although not every aspect of the story is entirely foreseeable, the general plot is easy enough to anticipate. The art is average in quality, though there was some interesting concepts and ideas that, sometimes, were represented visually in a clever manner. The op is serviceable, with a passable song. I found the voice acting quite decent at times, if slightly odd at certain intervals. The highlight, for me, was the individual choices that the main character, Kanade Amakusa, is forced to make throughout the series; this added some flavor to episodes that would otherwise be uninteresting and bland. The characters were decent, if not good- effort was made in an attempt to develop these characters. They have actual personality and and aren't just walking clichés; sometimes the characters actually make tough decisions, where it isn't entirely clear what they will do, though this doesn't mitigate the lacking story. The series, I found, was fairly enjoyable, but didn't live up to its potential, with the possibilities made viable with the somewhat unique idea.

If you don't like this anime after one episode, drop it, it will not get any better for you. I struggled to finish it over the course of more than a year (I hate dropping shows once I've started watching them.) That being said, there definitely will be people who would enjoy this show so I will go into more detail. Story: 7 The premise is an interesting one; but it felt like it could have been executed it better. Some of Amakusa's choices lead to hilarious moments. Lots of ecchi and perverted jokes; some of which were good, but I found much of them to be trying too hard. Art: 9 Absolutely beautiful. All the main characters had lovely eyes, and cute outfits with pretty details. The backgrounds and scenery were nothing to complain about either. The quality was consistent from start to finish. Sound: 6 The opening song was bouncy and fun, and the ending song was great. Most of the girls sounded more like kindergartners than teenagers, which was uncomfortable considering the sexual situations in which they often found themselves. Background music is nothing worth mentioning, as I just finished the show and honestly can't even remember any of it. Character: 5 We get the whole harem "set;" the tsunderes, well meaning airheads, lolis, girl with small boobs complex, and yes, even a clueless protagonist. It can be difficult to come up with entirely original characters, I get that, but these ones weren't developed at all during the show. There was virtually no character growth. Some of the characters did have signature gags that were amusing. Enjoyment: 4 Overall: 4 I gave it a low rating because I didn't enjoy watching most of it. If you can't enjoy the show, then it doesn't really matter how good the rest of the qualifiers are. If ecchi, perverted jokes, and harems are your thing, you will probably enjoy this show.

The show had an interesting premise to start, but fell apart by halfway through. It wasn't a normal harem at the beginning, but they kept forcing it to conform. The early episodes had some laugh out loud moments and painful awkwardness. So painful at times I almost stopped, but the few funny moments kept me going. I only completed the show because after I'm halfway through a series I feel obligated to finish. I should mention that the show had a handicap for Western audiences as there a lot of jokes and puns that clearly don't translate well or make sense. That handicap was not the reason this show failed though. If a character didn't start bland, the show did their best make them become bland. It's frustrating to watch an anime that has enough hidden pieces in it that you can tell there could have been something good, squander that potential. Is it possible to try too hard to be both unique and like everything else at the same time? I think this is anime did.

It's simply, basically, eminently, a funny and absurd comedy school life of a boy highschooler. First appearance as light novel on 2012 followed by manga in the next year, both writtern by Takeru Kasukabe. The animation version has 10 eps on Fall 2013 and 1 OVA released on May 2014. Straight to the plot! The harem story of a boy who surrounded by few ‘weird’ girls in his school, and he is known by the entire school itself for making so many fusses. The boy is suffering from a curse called “Absolute Choices”, it gives him two or more choices, he is not permitted to not choose one of it immediately or he will suffer from the extreme pain more than just a normal headache. Often, or mostly, the funny parts come from his undeniable choice, such an abnormal choices and circumstances he has to bear no matter what. This extreme school life of a boy and few girls I can’t even imagine myself being stuck in the bunch of “freak” peeps. {SPOILER} To get rid of the “Absolute Choices” curse he agrees helplessly the chance God sends to him through a girl who’s falling from the sky in a random sunny day. Did I wrote ‘God’? Yeah it exactly is as you read. The ‘God’ appears normally as a minor character like in other series, but this one, this God, gets through him via cell phone. The notifications are the tasks Kanade Amakusa—the name of the boy-must do, and forbid any failure, he needs to accomplish it during the given time, otherwise Kanade will not have any chance in the future to eradicate the curse. Along with the clumsy Chocolat—the name of the falling girl from God-they try to finish every absurd tasks, perform unimaginable tasks in Kanade’s school life. There are not much, just few supranatural thingy, I mean like simple magic tricks, pop-up things and other simple stuffs shown in the series. The genres are comedy, school life, slice-of-life, and ecchi. I describe the ecchi-ness in this show as indicate sexual appeals from those girls, and the harem scenes appear like tons of comedy scenes. The characters surely affect the whole show since it’s about comedy, so the problems, personalities, situations, the feels, from extremely varied cast are needed to give the best comedy scenes. I might say it’s above average but not too high, yes it is funny however. As usual, the ecchi-ness sometimes bothers me, because in few scenes it feels off or they shouldn’t be there and it can be more funny w/o that way. The theme songs are..ummm maybe fun, and it's catchy. It's hard to describe, can't find the right words for it. By the way, the OP is sung by Afilia Saga "S・M・L☆" & the ED theme "Taiyou to Tsuki no Cross" (太陽と月のCROSS) by TWO-FORMULA (Kaori Sadohara & Saeko Zougou). The rating I give is 5 ! You can choose this one for fun, watch it when you're bored can relieve your bad day. Pros: Funny, such a ridiculous story Good graphics for school life story Cons: Sometimes the funny scenes feel off or too harsh The main point here just the humour and ecchi-ness

Many of you reading will be quite familiar with anime, but for those who aren't, welcome to a new type of media with its own unique conventions. Ore no bla bla bla is a reasonably good anime, and has a little bit of everything, but falls short in so many ways. While the philosophical intro was quite a refreshing way to start a comedy, it spent far too long developing a really superficial thesis. That said, those with background in history, particularly Japanese history, are treated to many jokes about famous people and their choices. This kind of humour is an absolute pleasure in small, unexpected doses, but the intro was quite hamfisted. Throughout the anime, there were many moments that gave the writers opportunity to explore characters and the choice plot device in more depth, but I constantly found myself disappointed by their refusal to explore. The few good plot twists in the series were heavily telegraphed up to 3 or 4 episodes early, and the choice mechanic rarely served a purpose other than comic relief. The characters are fairly well-developed, but none of them had a significant character arc. By episode 10, even the protagonist was basically the same character we met in the first episode. While most of the plot was lackluster and dull, the charm of this anime comes from how outrageous some of the situations are. There was also quite a lot of fanservice and fetish fuel in the anime, though I'm quite neutral towards both. NouCome is not bad. The problem is that it isn't really that great either. The art and characters are solid. The storyline and comedy fall flat quite often. It's hard to favour this one when there are so many excellent anime in the comedy genre already. I didn't enjoy it much, but the anime has moe appeal for those who love cute and vulnerable characters.

I'll try to keep this review brief. I'll start with the negatives and end with the positives. Overall, this series is quite generic, as the characters, their development, and interactions are very common for this whole "fan-servicey, school romance, comedy, harem" type anime. It does try to set itself apart by forcing a seemingly metaphysical concept like "Every choice in your life affects the world" down your throat in the first episode. However, the best way to watch this series is to not take it so seriously. This concept is never taken further than purely for the sake of comedy and some light romance. As for my enjoyment; as a whole, it was fairly enjoyable. It was filled with (again, generic) situational "cringe" comedy, which is always reliable to fall back upon. In a series like this, this type of comedy fits well. The characters were also fairly likable. This series is good, NOT a masterpiece, and NOT a piece of crap. Don't make the mistake of thinking there is some deep meaning to it as this will cause you to either fall in love with it for a reason that does not exist, or hate it for forcing your high expectations upon it. Thank you for reading.

I liked this series because it's something different from what you usually expect from a harem based anime. What I look for in a good anime series are characters that are distinctively different from one another and have a personality that anyone who watches it, would fall in love with. I couldn't help but to hide my face when certain characters showed their unique charm while watching it. What this anime does best is not just focus on the main character but instead, put special attention all the characters (even the ones that are occasionally shown) that's in each episode. I'm not going to get into the whole back story on what the anime is because you can easily get the general idea from the overview that the website gives. I was somewhat skeptical about how this anime was based on the main character suffering from "Absolute Choice". Choose one or the other. When you think of that, especially in a harem series, you would expect heartbreak 24/7 because while one character is happy, the other would be sad. This anime did not take that approach by making this series a very heart-wrenching drama where you're going to bawl your eyes out. The choices that are given to the protagonist in this anime are... very different and entertaining to witness. This is without a doubt a series that everyone should watch.

(Mini Review) For a comedy that's largely based on shock value, this show is quite boring. Plenty of fanservice, eccentric characters and a plot that allows for some creative comedic possibilities are all jumbled together in hopes of cohesion but feel far too disjointed to keep a decent pace. The strongest point for this show was its eccentric cast but it was very hit or miss and tended use them to sequel bait for their next season.

What on earth was this. I was dying by episode one. Thankfully, it was very fast-paced, so it wasn't too rough of a watch, but my god, that was something. This is definitely very fanservicy. It's a strange story, it does okay but the ending was just eh. All of the women of course love our main character too, for some reason, because of course (ew). Also, the homeroom teacher being a literal child. "Oh but she isn't a kid she just looks like it" WHY, it's SOOOO EW. I watched this knowing I'd give it a low score because I wanted to solidify my rating scale. If you're here for what it advertises itself to be, you'll like it. Also, what's with the women having very red spots with shiny white dots on their shoulders, thighs, boobs, everywhere???? That cannot be attractive, can it?? What???? It's so strange looking.

This series has no proper story, no proper romance, no destination or target and no past, just everyday school life of a boring guy. But it was incredibly funny, especially the choices, voice of announcer and how Daiko-san is involved in these choices. Character settings were also aligned properly for the male MC. Random deep explanation of meaningless stuff. I watch it even now at random times when I'm sad or bored to cheer up. I think this can cheer up anyone else the same way as it did for me. Thank you for creating this anime with it's amazing animation style.
