Ojou to Banken-kun

It was certainly a Decision to make the romantic counterpart for a high school girl.......... her adoptive father. Not a spoiler bc they mention it right at the beginning. Like pls. Personally i don't like the age gap either, but that's not even the part that bugs me, i can get over that. It's not like he's 40, he's like 26. Yeah not great but i can deal. But this man is HER FATHER. He raised her since she was a toddler!!! That part really weirds me out. I did power through the episodes that are released (like 6 or 7?) and i do like the animation and the actual pacing of the romance. I just hate that it's her dad. In my case target audience not reached, but perhaps people with an electra complex would enjoy it.

(16+) Uneven animation, a colossal narrative mistake, and an overall unlikeable male protagonist really killed this anime for me. This could have been a "9" or "10" but the negatives just destroy the overall enjoyment and it's a real shame. I won't get into the massive, unforgiveable mistake made regarding something that is attempted at the female lead (other posts have discussed it with spoilers) but it is her stupid, completely nonsensical reaction to it that dooms this series. I've never seen such an unforced error in anime, and it is really upsetting. Stupidity squared. Some of the later episodes have some animation that is terrible, they should have just cut a few scenes! And the male protagonist? Ugh. For all that, this anime is somehow a bingeable show, but it will leave you with a bad taste in your mouth, just be warned.

Now, the age difference in this anime is the main source of contention. It's causing a lot of controversy, but I won't go into that in this review. Personally, I don't mind these kinds of age differences and I kind of love them; if you can't get over the idea and are positive that this anime is inappropriate, then move on.

Now, to begin this review, let me say that I have been looking forward to this anime since last year and that I was relieved to find that it finally had a traditional, classic shoujo plot. Those have been absent from our lives for a very long time. After watching the entire anime, I'm going to say that, based only on the premise and story, I would have ordinarily given it a 7 out of 10. Unfortunately, I had to give it a 5 because to the subpar direction, execution, and animation. There was hardly any professional animation.

While I am harsh on this anime, I am also giving it some leeway. This is due to the fact that such plots are uncommon for anime series, and I would greatly like to promote them. It's also possible that not much money was spent on it, which would explain why the anime's overall quality was just mediocre. Although there are some animation errors, I'm attempting to be forgiving of them in light of the previously provided information.

It truly might have been lot better and didn't reach its full potential, which is the main reason it was reduced to a 5. That somewhat impacted the enjoyable aspect of it. But from the standpoint of a shoujo fan, it scored some really high points. In terms of romantic moments and happenings, it won't let you down. I would suggest this anime if you're yearning for some physical romance rather than the typical naive love that's depicted in other anime.

The MOST POINTLESS STORY of the shoujo/age-gap love/romance genre i have seen in some time not gonna lie! The plot can be over in just first 20 minutes of the first episode! That's how baseless the theme of the plot is ! The animation also just gets bad ! The ed song is lot better than the whole show's animation ! That just proves how bad it is! Some scenes are just lazy in terms of animation! They feel like motion pictures ! Like just a slideshow of pictures! The plot gets so bad at some times like literally irritable! So the only reason i watched it till the end because i like female lead, not for her personality as it is one of the worst one out there! But for her character design such as her hair and her cute cat lips! Also there are very less moments but the chemistry between male lead and female lead is such a delight to watch! I think this plot had so much potential but they just instead focused on something baseless ! Not sure why ! Anyways not recommended for one time watch too! But if and if only nothing better to do or just want to do something out of ordinary and curious then hop on or else forget this lol as i am doing it ~ !

I really loved the anime. It really grows on you. From all the shojo animes I've seen so far this feels so relatable. I love how in this anime they show hints of how he's feeling as well. Idk why everywhere it's criticized where in reality this how usually feelings work. I know grooming is there but he just replaced that position not to mention the age gap is also not that big. It's not like it was hella weird like "my housekeeper nagisa san". And the characters are really great the voice the and most importantly I love both of their eyes so much, really feel like falling for Keiya Uto. This anime is really cute, takes me back to my high school days and I really really really wish to see the second season in anime.
