The Dangers in My Heart

Boku no kokoro no yabai yatsu

I have seen many animes in my lifetime but never felt emotionally connected with any but it all changed when I first saw Boku no kokoro no yabai yatsu.

But first, to let you know I am not interested in romance-type stories I prefer animes like Monster, Dragon Ball, Naruto, Death note, etc

I just started watching this Boku no Kokoro no yabai yatsu just because I did not have any interesting anime to watch and I was bored. But when I saw it I felt nostalgia, and then felt the joy and pain all at the same time as it made me think about my feelings when I was in school and college. I believe everyone has gone through an infatuation or love stage in their life and this anime tries to make you recall that stage trust me it gives you a whole different experience which I believe will leave a soft-hearted person with tears of both joy and regret.

This anime is so wonderful, the storyline is so grounded.

I started watching this anime maybe at 12am midnight and I finished the whole season on the go, it literally took my sleep away and I could not sleep at all after watching it.

Eventually, I ended up watching from the beginning once again on the next day to understand each detail.

And the second season is also so amazing and can't wait to see more new episodes.

I thank the writer Norio Sakurai who wrote such a beautiful anime. I admire her work from the heart.

And after watching the anime I for the first time in my life started reading the manga and its the Boku no kokoro no yabai yatsu manga.

In the first episode, you think you know what this is going to be and the personalities of the characters. As it goes, they become people you are super invested in. The series' description is a bit misleading and once you get to the 4th episode you start to get very passionate about the story.

It doesn't drag on too long and cause too much frustration, just enough to notice but then you get a payoff in many forms. The show's humor does mostly revolve around teenage situations that are actually realistic and not just obnoxious "shock" toilet-humor.

I started watching because I kept seeing it highly rated and wanted to see if it was niche or if it was for everyone. This is for everyone and its better than it has any right to be.

It actually builds the relationships in a believable way. The two main characters are multi-layered and not just one note. Every dimension to their personality has a slight variance and sometimes even contradiction, which adds to the believability and speaks to the incredible writing for the show.

I never before watched anime shows or romantic stuff either but this one was different!!!

The characters' style, the script, the flirting scenes.. everything were much better than expected and I really want a season 3!!!

Btw, I think it's cute how Yamada is the taller one.

Despite that Ichi refused to believe Yamada liked him even tho how many signs she was giving to him the whole time over and over again I think it was funny how he figured out he was wrong.

His sister was quite funny, she looks like him in appearance!!

Yamada's dad also seems cool for wanting Ichi to be his gaming buddy!

The Dangers in My Heart: A Hilarious Descent into Unexpected Romance "The Dangers in My Heart" isn't your average rom-com. It takes a hilarious and surprisingly heartwarming detour, defying expectations at every turn.

The story centers around Kyotaro Ichikawa, a reclusive teenager with a dark secret: he fantasizes about murdering the most popular girl in class, Anna Yamada. However, beneath this edgy exterior lies a nervous boy with a massive crush. What truly shines is the subversion of this initial premise. Kyotaro's dark thoughts become a comedic goldmine, a constant internal monologue that fuels the show's humor.

As the series progresses, a delightful twist emerges. Circumstances force Kyotaro and Anna to interact, chipping away at their facades. The fear of rejection and the awkwardness of budding feelings are portrayed with brilliant comedic timing. The supporting cast adds another layer of charm, with their own quirky personalities and surprising depth.

"The Dangers in My Heart" isn't afraid to tackle serious themes like social anxiety and the pressure to conform. But it does so with a light touch, weaving humor and genuine emotional moments seamlessly. The animation is clean and expressive, perfectly capturing the characters' over-the-top reactions and their subtler emotional shifts.

Here's what truly elevates the show:

Unique Premise: The dark humor surrounding Kyotaro's fantasies is a hilarious twist on the typical rom-com tropes.

Character Development: Both Kyotaro and Anna shed their initial appearances, revealing surprising vulnerabilities and hidden strengths.

Shifting Dynamics: The show masterfully transitions from antagonistic humor to genuine emotional connection.

This anime is teaches you how to love yourself and how a relationship should be actually like mutual understanding of each other feelings, emotions and taking care of each other etc. In starting it looks like an common romance type anime but soon as it goes will give so many surprises.

This anime is wholesome emotions, I just watched for timepass but become my one of my most fav anime. I already watched most of the episodes of season 2 multiple times and I am very excited for season 3 and others seasons. Really can't wait for season 3 to come.... Thank you for creating such a wonderful anime.
