Comic Girls

Okay, so I found that the last two episodes managed to move me, so I cannot award an average rating. Otherwise, I am going to say right off the bat that Kaoruko Moeta, aka Kaos, is the cutest character I have seen from the entirety of this spring's releases. In addition, she improved my experience of watching this anime series. In other words, I had the exact opposite experience from what my colleague Hellierer described. Kaos is a case of a completely tragic and weepy cute character who evokes deep sympathies in me, and then when I see how hard she tries, I feel like I just have to root for her. Then, when she succeeds, I am really moved, proud and satisfied. I call it the Yurika effect because I first experienced this with the eponymous character in the anime Invaders of the Rokujouma!?. So, I really enjoyed the whole Kaos thing; I found her really entertaining, even though I understand that not everyone can tolerate that much cuteness, because people have different taste (for example, I cannot stand weeping, sobbing, effeminate boys, or "traps"...). As for the rest of it, it was interesting to watch the girls, who were practically living representations of the tropes that symbolize the style of manga they are devoted to. So, for example, there is the creepy horror writer, the mature-for-her-age erotica author, etc. I also liked the animation and the soundtrack. Sure, some of the jokes were not that funny; I did not always have fun or find it interesting. However, because of the above-mentioned fact that it moved me, in the end, I am awarding this show 6.8/10. (2018.06.22)
