Akkun to Kanojo is 25 episodes X 3 minutes anime. I define it as a romantic comedy genre.
First the techincal (animation) informations. The animation is kinda basic. Good but thats it. I like the intro.
About the anime itself. My opnion about shorts anime is that can be either great or terrible. This one is definetly one of the great one. It is naturally funny. Even when the episode is short, it will make you laught. This is how a romantic comedy should looks like. I do not enjoy romantic comedies that are like without any humour just tons of fanservice. If you are looking for something like this, you are at wrong place. But for us, for the people who are looking for something really funny this is the right anime.
Story:
The story follows a highschool student named Atsuhiro (Akkun) and hi…

You could say its an anime about toxic relationship. And although I typical hate those types of anime, here it is done in a comedic, cute, and endearing way.
Its about a boy named Atsuhiro Kagari aka "Akkun". And a girl named Katagiri.
The two are dating but Akkun always has a mean attitude towards Katagari. However deep down he absolutely adores her with all his heart and just cant handle her cuteness.
Katagari is the cutest and sweetest thing ever. And loves Akkun. And knows that deep down he's just a tsundere.
Akkun is obsessed with Katagari. He stalks her. Takes pictures. Records her singing to herself.
If this was a serious drama yes it would be creepy. But it is genuinely funny and entertaining.
From time to time Akkun goes into "dere mode" as Katagari calls it, where he shows h…

The episodes are quick and so is this review:
-It's funny
-It's cute
-The pacing is good
-Idk y the op is so long
-Gets repetitive after episode 10, so I would recommend dropping it by then
tldr: Very good, could be better.
Hmm, mal won't allow me to post without more words, so I guess we can talk about something... Idk why this anime gets so much hate, I guess comedy is subjective and many people don't find Akkun funny, in this case I guess it all makes sense. I'd add that if you don't find the anime fun, you won't find it fun. Done, great review. Thanks mal.

This anime tries a lot to romanticize a very aggressive behaviour in a relationship, where one side is a complete jerk to the other and it almost abuse. I know it's for comedy pourpouse but at some point it really stops being funny and became really annoying and unconfortable. Talking a little bit about the story, it just exectly what you expected, being extremely predictable, and, for me, very unfunny. I usually tries to defend short animes but this one is a True no to me. But Still, I would recomend it, its very short and maybe you like it, or you maybe you hate and gain one more thing to complain about!

I feel like this is the result when you try to cram the good things about a romance anime and things from Umaru Chan. I had good laughs but ultimately I think it is just like Umaru Chan but there is more emphasis on the relationship between them. I wished there are more episodes and more details between episodes, i feel that the show was too rush but overall i still liked it.
I wish there are more episodes. Personally I think this show is too underrated and i think more people should watch this. to find this was like a hidden gem except the ideas used in this is so common and used so many times before.

This anime is not bad and the time for each episodes are quite short. The story is about two teenagers that are in a relationship which one is considered as a “tsundere” and another is cute yet tries to resist that people would usually called it as being a masochist. It’s a comedy and slice of life series. I actually dislike how the anime studio does not actually adapt the anime faithfully to the entire manga version which I’d preferred them to do. Other modern companies would faithfully follow the manga for the anime while Yumeta Company and Graphinica tries to change things up which is similar to the older days such as the 90s era. It’s not that bad but if the manga version is decent, it doesn’t need to be change too much unless they need to incorporate more new ideas/ details to expand…

Short and sweet, just like this review. Another bread sandwich anime, but short enough that it doesn't feel like you should've watched something else instead. The characters are all charming in their own ways even if the overplayed tsundere genre has completely lost me in recent years, and each very small episode just leaves you with a dumb grin on your face.
People who hate this anime have valid reason to; it is, after all, pretty basic. However, I have a certain respect for it for not giving us another blank slate MC and making him into a character rather than a pincushion. Good stuff.

Akkun to Kanojo is quite an uncomfortable show and not in the way you'd want a comedy to be. This short-length series is intended to be a silly comedy with a simple, high-concept premise (like, for instance, Fudanshi Koukou Seikatsu's "what if a straight guy liked yaoi xD"). However, I’d argue that Akkun to Kanojo’s absolutely goofy premise ("what if a guy treated his girlfriend like shit but actually loves her LOL!") misfires this time. This premise makes what would otherwise be a bland comedy much worse, though it is certainly also brought down by its other creepy and problematic characters.
Essentially, Akkun to Kanojo centres on three different couples and their clashing personalities, which generates the supposed humor of the show. The first couple consists of the eponymous Akkun and…

My Sweet Tyrant is a 25 episode short series compromised of 3-minute 33-second short and sweet moments of what is possibly (in my opinion) one of the most BIG BRAIN plays on the Tsundere trope I've seen in a while. This anime is not an investment at all (considering the total time you could watch it in is a little less than 2 hours) and the reward you get is nothing short of amazing.

Story: (8/10)
The story isn't anything to write home about despite some of my previous praises. It's GOOD don't get me wrong, it's a simple and typical slice-of-life setting that doesn't try to do anything out of the ordinary.
Art: (8/10)
I actually found the art to be quite reminiscent of the art in bunny girl…

Don't take this show too seriously when you are going into it.
I only gave it a 6 because Non-tan. If you are not a fan of the tsundere trope, this show is not for you. It's not bad but it's not good.
I didn't mind the episode format but I'm curious why they decided to make the opening take up such a large percentage of an episode. Hands down, the best part of the show, for me, was Non-tan.
The teacher-student couple is a huge nope for me. The main guy is rude and struggles to communicate his feelings effectively, which is the punchline, but I found myself constantly thinking "Non deserves better" as the show went on.

Well, that's the first shorts anime I've ever seen and in the first episode I didn't see the duration of each episode and I was really surprised that all of the episodes of this anime has the curious duration of 3min and 30sec (in fact, each episode has 2min and 50sec because the opening fills like 30%, I'm not so sure about this but by the way...) and I admit this fact made me feel even more curious about what kind of stuff I would see in this anime and... Now I feel disappointed.
Just to start, this anime is basically some short ""funny"" stories about three couples living ""funny"" moments in their ""funny"" relationships to make you feel ""funnied""? And well... At least, I think a comedy anime is supposed to make you laugh and if it fails, this anime failed in his main purpose. And i…

Short anime, it is a romantic comedy, this well is not the great entertaining thing. The whole series lasts 50 minutes so if you are bored give it a try. they have very curious personalities. I recommend it if you are bored.It does not bring anything new I am writing this because it tells me that the publication is very short.
En español:
Anime corto, es una comedia romántica, esta bien no es la gran cosa entretenida. Toda la serie dura 50 minutos así que si estas aburrido dale una oportunidad. tienen personalidades muy curiosas. La recomiendo si estas aburrido. No trae nada nuevo estoy escribiendo esto porque me dice que la publicacion es muy corta.

The story itself seems kind of bland and played off. Similar to Love is Like a Cocktail both series take a couple with some sort of quirk, in this case having Akkun be a tsundere, and base the entire episode in a 3 minute short.
It's fun and cute and honestly its nothing special but if you're looking to pass some 3 minutes or so you have while idling around it's not a bad shout.
The only problem is if you try to binge the show, I absolutely despised the fact that the OP was a 1/3rd of the episodes and played every damn time when I binged it. I personally would've preferred if they were 20 minute or 12 minute episodes with 12 episodes or less than the 25 episodes each 3 minutes long.
Anyways, its nothing special, but its cute and fun.

Here's the thing. Why do we watch any anime at any given time? Is it because we measure each with a totally equal critical eye, hoping to catch a glimpse of the next great masterpiece? No, it is to find that show that can just *scratch that itch* you've got at that particular time. And no anime does it better than Akkun to Kanojo.
Honestly, I see most of these reviews talking about this show as if it's trying to be something that it's not. The show is similar to One Punch Man in that it plays on some tropes, and adds comedy on top. It's a great show to sit back, relax, and binge while having a few good laughs. NONE of the characters are believable - news flash, that's the point. They are all so over the top so as to be ridiculous, and are written into funny scenario's that the author/dire…

The short episodes are quite a good idea for this type of anime, but still the characters aren’t interesting, you have the impression to look at the same episode again and again.
The storyline... well it’s pretty pointless to mention it if you have watched it you know that there is none. No evolution at all in 25 episodes, I know that it isn’t the purpose of this anime but at the end you get to the same point than when you’ve started it.
No real background of the characters, even if they are endearing, that’s not enough.
It is not a catastrophic anime but it is the simple way, I do like simple anime but it have to contein a certain content.
Overall I passed a neutral moment in front of this anime, yeah neutral is the right word. I see this anime like a after-dinner liqueur, it washes yo…

It's not the type of story that you would make in 'shorts'. A tsundere guy needs a further development for it to be appreciated, plus the relationship they have is actually unhealthy and insensitive. It tries hard to be funny and make a comedy out of their skits, but if you think of it, the guy is actually irresponsible with what he has, given that her girlfriend is so, so much understanding on behalf of him.
The art is very good though. It follows the art style of good anime shows that I've watched. Too bad, the story didn't match it.

A set of 25 shorts with 3 minutes per episode which includes the 50 seconds or so introduction for most episodes.
The story does progress quite nicely throughout. Although I do like it, it does, however, show a bit of a toxic side of a Tsundere into quite a bad relationship really with a pushover girl. If you take it as just a set of shorts in the format it is, however, it is enjoyable.
The art style used is good, nothing special but easy to watch.
I would actually in a sequel like to see the development of Kagari, Chiho and Matsuo, Masago as the primary pairing since they actually have quite a nice relationship going on with a lot of innocence.
It is a good series which is worth a watch.

Short-form anime versus long-form anime: a feud as old as time. However, once you look at it with cool, level-headed mind and free of fanatic thoughts, it becomes downright simple: that 3 minutes of utmost quality always trumps 24 minutes of been-there-done-that entertainment. Therefore, I recommend not to dismiss Akkun to Kanojo ever-- because it truly is an anime of utmost quality.
Ever curious what would it look like if Bakugo Katsuki/Squall Leonhart/Sakuraba Neku/Vegeta had gone head over heels thanks to the crazy, obsessive thing called tween love? Well, meet Kagari "Akkun" Atsuhiro-- on the surface he equivocates his girlfriend with a piece of worthless trash but once the facade is gone, he is just that hopeless romantic who worships his girlfriend more than Starbucks frappe. Obviou…

[spoiler Free Review]
Its short sweet and satisfying!
(Like most penises ಸ‿ಸ)
Akkun to Kanojo Follows the story of a sweet high school pair and their sweet events of life. This anime is best explained as a "75 episode anime with the best 25 parts cut out"
The main character is a male tsundere which was a entertaining sight as its not a trope that's commonly used in anime regularly.
It has little to no story and is only made for the viewer to enjoy the sweet wholesome moments between two cute people.
The art is mediocre and not anything special in any way.
The same goes for the sounds.
The Characters are very good and the only purpose to watch this show lol.
Overall its a sweet show that does not take longer then 75 mins too watch so go ahead and watch it in your free time.

This anime was pretty adorable, though at times pretty creepy, and definitely a quick binge watch. With the episodes being three minutes long, including the intro, I breezed through all 25 episodes in no time. I gave this anime an overall score of 7/10, and here's why.
Story: 6/10
Okay, so main story isn't that interesting, I'll be honest. It's just about the male character verbally abusing his girlfriend because he is apparently shy, and can't function properly when around her, but in secrecy he calls her an angel, etc. What really hooked me on the series is the other characters interactions with each other, specifically that of the main male characters sister and his best friend. I really loved how they interacted with each other, and how their friendship developed overtime.
Art: 7/10…
