With a small audience and a quick end and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Made for anyone who wants a laugh and animation lovers.
- The mood
- Light and funny, feel-good.
- The pace
- 1 season: a few weeks of evenings, short, snackable episodes, about 10 hours in all.
- What might put you off
- Rated TV-PG: slapstick violence. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
- It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Love is unusual for Koizumi Risa and Ootani Atsushi, who are both striving to find their ideal partner in high school—172 cm tall Koizumi is much taller than the average girl, and Ootani is much shorter than the average guy at 156 cm.
