Should I watch Tsurezure Children?

Should I watch Tsurezure Children?

note: I'm LA
Hey, an anime short romance that actually does the entire "misunderstandings schtick" and NOT get annoying!

LA can be really cynical when it comes to romance but LA can open up at times and Tsurezure Children definitely resonated with LA...more on the lines of "LA wished something would have happened to LA in high school".

Tsurezure Children shows vignettes of many different relationships in an unnamed school, from a comedic best friend turned girlfriend and boyfriend, a love at first sight romance, the shy guy and girl coming together and heck even the delinquent tsundere with a quirky teasing smartass.

Let's start with Yuki Minagawa voiced by Kana Hanazawa who likes to romantically tease Jun Furuya voiced by Kyohei Amasaki in which he has a doting little sister Hotaru Furuya voiced by Haruka Tomatsu who makes some of the best reactions in the anime short. Yuki's teasing is one of the best things about this relationship as she knows ways to get reactions from the Furuya siblings and she is the catalyst to their skits and LA just loves it. LA's most interested relationship would be Masafumi Akagi voiced by Kensho Ono and Ryouko Kaji voiced by Ayane Sakura as their comedic timing and Akagi's teasing are well timed although LA felt he got a bit too far at times. Ayaka Kamine voiced by Yui Ogura and Takeru Gouda voiced by Tomoaki Maeno although their relationship grows in which Ayaka is the one that pushes it while Takeru once to take it slow was kinda ok in LA's opinion and not the most interesting relationship for LA, though Ayaka got better for LA, trying to push their relationship and showing that she's more than a shy girl archetype. Takurou Sugawara voiced by Kaito Ishikawa and Chizuru Takano voiced by Inori Minase has the entire love at first sight romance and like Ayaka and Takeru's relationship was less interesting for LA, heck probably was LA's least interesting relationship the anime looked at but thankfully their relationship got better by the end of it. Kana Ijima voiced by Akari Kito and Chiaki Uchimura voiced by Seiichirou Yamashita are the "misunderstandings" relationships and really what works in this entire comedic timing and misunderstandings is that for the MOST part, their misunderstandings comes from outside sources that causes their misunderstandings and seeing BOTH sides of their misunderstandings, thus it both cancels any chance of these characters from being idiots and allows for great comedic timing and by the end of it, LA ROOTED for these two to be together because fate or awkward situations just had to crash their party. FINALLY, the only other relationship LA needs to look at were Takao Yamane voiced by Hiro Shinono and Chiyo Kurihara, the two twice shy characters however LA really didn't like Takao stopping Chiyo's advances and keeps railroading himself and self depreciative nature caused LA to get really annoyed with him.

The animation by Studio Gokumi were for the most part decent though some of the facial animation got derped at times but LA can give the animation some grace as the animation wasn't the most important focus in this anime short. Still Studio Gokumi did what they are known for in making moe character designs and still was consistent at that (aside from the occasional derps).

The voice acting, well there are THREE voice actors LA would praise in this anime short. Ayane Sakura, Haruka Tomatsu and Kana Hanazawa. Ayane Sakura took LA's favourite voice actor for this anime short, if not because of her adorable tsundere (mainly leaning on her dere) vocals, Haruka Tomatsu for doing her crazed doting little sister scthick and made amazing chemistry with Kana Hanazawa all the more better and Kana Hanazawa's teasing vocals were great for her aforementioned great chemistry with Haruka Tomatsu.

If anything Tsurezure Children was LA's most surprising anime short and heck anime for Summer 2017 to the point of LA giving Tsurezure Children the best romance for Summer 2017. If you wanna see a misunderstanding romance that ISN'T annoying to various romances with a ton of comedy, leaps and bounds, trials and tribulations to them then Tsurezure Children is a definite watch.
