    Switched at birth with a romantic twist

    Nagi always felt like the odd one in his family, being a diligent and ambitious learner while none of them are particularly studious. Anyway he loves them and therefore has little interest to get to know his biological parents. He gives into meeting them once, but little does he know what they have planned out for him...

    "A Couple of Cookoos" constructs a hilarious setting to establish the harem plotline. The show tries to be funny, but fails to be outstandingly witty or hilarious. Its animation style is rather serious and not overly comical, which makes it hard for the show to find its place. It doesn't take itself particularly serious and therefore makes it hard to immerse or relate. It offers a certain share of fanservice while following the protagonist navigating the maze of weirdness his family, biological parents and his own feelings throw him into, but does not manage to connect to the viewer on an emotional level.

    Eventually this show seems to be between the chairs. Its style does not really match with the kind of story it tries to tell, and thus fails to excel in either dimension of the romcom genre. It's still 'good' imho, but not more. Watch it if you're a fan of the genre, but leave it be if not since it is unlikely to get you hooked.

    MUST WATCH

    Listen here this is the best anime one can watch if you don't like violence or abuse. The anime is short if you don't watch it will shoot you , the Hindi dub is mind blowing dubbed by famous person who dubbed the voice of Nobita in doremon.thr polt is simple even you are a child wanna start Anime this would be best option for you just what its not even that long just 24 for 23 minutes average, two children were exchanged while birth and there family came to know about it earlier a boy name nagi got exchanged from a rich family to a middle class family and you would know how amazing this anime is.

    Animation

    I waited the whole time for this anime , I liked it so much and their character too. But there are some thing that i don't liked in the new season . I liked the previous season's animation . They just changed the character's personality and appearance. I waited the whole time for the second season and I got disappointed by their new animation graphics. They change hiro-san's hairstyle, she looked cute with her old hairstyle. They changed character's way of speak . Its look liked they are goingto end this anime with it's second.

    If its possible please release the second season again with the old animation that used in season first.

    Lively. Funny and Entertaining

    I like how the witty dialogue and fast moving story never gets boring. The characters experience surprises, dumb mistakes, and awkward moments certain to make you smile.

    The adolescent characters are already struggling to figure out who they are, so learning they aren't even related to their families makes them more confused. Watching them react and change adds a nice subtext to the surface comedy. I would have liked a bit more emotional depth, but this is primarily a comedy, so just sit back and laugh.

    The attractive, crisp, modern animation is similar to "My Dress Up Darling". Also, there is plenty of "fan service" (Hollywood calls it "T & A"}, but the sexual humor here is restrained and unlikely to offend anyone.

    I recommend this romantic comedy.
