\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Series<\/strong>: Tomo-chan is a Girl!<\/p>\n

Episodes<\/strong>: 1-13<\/p>\n

Premise<\/strong>: Junichiro (Jun) Kubota and Tomo Aizawa are childhood best friends who hang out together and walk to and from school every day. Tomo is a tomboy who fell in love with Jun but feels there is no hope of him ever returning her feelings because he regards her as a brother. Slowly, they come to terms with growing up and what it means to find love.<\/p>\n

Is it worth watching?<\/strong>: Yes. This is a wonderful romantic comedy like the greats of yore \"\"<\/a>such as KareKano and Lovely Complex. The love story is great and a slow burn that builds at the perfect pace, and the comedy is done well also. We laughed out loud at several points, and the writing was funny and impactful.<\/p>\n

Breakout character<\/strong>: Tomo is the best of the bunch. We love the growth and development of her character and watching her mature. There are bumps in the road for her, but it’s handled well.<\/p>\n

Where it’s going?<\/strong>: The show ended with the 13th episode so the ride’s over. But it was a nice ride with fun characters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
