Tonari no kaibutsu kun ep 3vf

One of the lighter series this (actually, already last) season. Just 13 episodes long, Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun ("My Little Monster") is a romance comedy. First of all I want to point out that it succeeded at what it was trying to achieve – it's one of the best rom-coms I've seen in my life.

There is no real plot behind the series. The events in different episodes are connected only losely, by the central idea of the relationship between Shizuku and Haru. Sometimes some obstacles occur on their path, and the main characters have to overcome them. In the end, however, as the saying goes: “That which does not kill us makes us stronger.” This also goes for Shizuku and Haru.

We definitely need another season. With such amazing set of characters, they haven’t utilized them enough in this season. Thinking back with all the episodes, I think that this season serves as a very long introduction (of some sort). We haven’t seen much development and the episodes run around in circle. Maybe because they stick with the manga (which I think is a good thing). The thing is, mangas often take their time with the story.
