Gentle. Sweet. Charming. Warm. That's SG's payoff.
They have the voice actor read most, but not all, written communications, which is a relief, as our lead uses a portable whiteboard and marker to communicate. There are several times that Japanese words appear on the screen with no English interpretation. What's amusing about people is that some will find that near intolerable, and some won't even notice it. It bothers me, but this issue alone is overlookable.
Nothing-gets-past-me-Yukishiro-Nanako doesn't say much. She mostly communicates via a whiteboard that she /always/ carries around. I'm just learning anime lingo. She appears to be a dandere. She enjoys li…

This is a short anime based on not-so-short manga. The manga consists mostly of short 4-panel strips mostly, interweaved with longer stories arranged traditionally. And the anime follows that with 12 10-minute long episodes. There's no overarching plot. Episodes are self-contained. There is the beginning and ending however, which is important given the format. If you need more, you can hop on the manga train and get more.
That aside, this is one of the nicest series I've seen. And by that I don't mean it's overflowing with cuteness, moe, pouring sugar into your eyes and ears and all that. It's just reasonably nice and it doesn't try too hard.

This is literally Komi can't communicate, but in a different manner. Nanako can't speak so she writes poems and expresses herself and Komi writes in her notebook and expresses herself. I feel it is aimed at an audience who are really depressed and want their empty souls to be filled with something, just anything would do. It uses an entire literary genre as the focal point for its story, and not once does it feel contrived or like it's trying to maintain a shit just for sticking out. The opening and ending themes were great at the very least. It bodes well with the premise. While cheesy in some ways, it is a harmless watch.

Surprisingly good for a show I didn't have much hope for going into it. Not a lot of comedy anime feature memorable jokes that stay with me much longer than the runtime of the show but I think I'll always remember the gag with the girl who draws pictures of her face really fast to express her current emotions. The way it's executed is just so brilliantly ridiculous you can't help but laugh.
Senryuu are kind of like Haiku in that they have the same structure, I don't have enough of an understanding of eastern poetry (or any poetry for that matter) to say for sure what all the differences are, but if you went to school in the states it's probably safe to just think of them in your head as being the same. The joke of her always speaking in Senryuu is only really funny if they manage to keep…

I gave it a 6 just because, after I've read the manga, I came to the conclusion that this anime, despite its beautiful production regarding animation and colors, does not do justice to the original story.
In the anime, Nanako is a perfect girl: cute, cheerful and pure. In the manga she's all that, but also she's actually funny because some of her poems are hilarious, and sometimes misfortunes happen to her (like in one chapter that she injures her finger, and starts spitting incomprehensible poems like a broken printer!).
I don't understand why they decided to make such a short anime. It's cute but kinda forgettable compared to other slice of life/romantic comedies.
I really wish the same studio would just do a full adaptation of the manga, I'm sure it'd be a great success because the c…

Anime Is Great
Art Style is really Perfect
A True Work of Art
I'm quite impressed how they manage to put everything in a haiku format, The haiku above took me 5 mins to make.
For me Slice of life genres doesn't have a story line they are more like going for a concept, they go for a concept of people who have communication problems and how they manage to use their talent to communicate, I don't wana talk about this because I might say something that Doesn't make any sense lets proceed.
I've been scouting for anime for 2 hours and some anime didn't click for some reasons there are intersting anime that i've watched but it didn't really work. after all, 1st impressions are always important when it comes to a good anime and they hit the mark despite having only 12 mins per episode

Senryuu Shoujo tell the story of a "look like bad boy" and a mute but lovely girl.
The anime play on appearance and show that a looklike "delinquent" boy can actually like poetry.
The best things about this anime, is, of course, Nanako, the main character. She's so brightness and kind, her kindness will draw a smile on your face when you see her being so happy and cute for sure !
The side characters are also nice and support the main "couple".
There are really sweet moment, and even if some place are common, they find way to make them great, and with sweet moments.
The anime remind me a little "Komi-san wa, Comyushou desu." but it seems a little more focus on the "romance" side, while Komi-san wa, Comyushou desu. focus more into slide of life.
A great little anime to watch !

tl;dr: A series of comedic shorts involving senryuu with surprisingly good chemistry between the main couple.
This anime surprised me quite a bit in how much I enjoyed it. It’s composed of a series of 12 half length episodes that are primarily centered around humor, though with a good amount of subtle romance as well. As the title suggests the anime involves a lot of senryu, which are poems like haiku in that they follow the 5-7-5 syllable structure. There are deeper differences between senryu and haiku that you can google to learn more about, but from what I could tell the anime didn’t really take the differences all that seriously so thinking of senryu as haiku is probably fine for the purposes of this anime.
The basic premise is that there’s a high school girl named Nanako who only co…

Senryuu Shoujo is the literal definition of "do much while having less". Having read the first chapters of the manga, I dropped it at chapter 4 because I didn´t actually like 4-koma style. I felt like moments were disconnected and that dragged the manga back. Luckily I found these adaptation and decided to give it a try. And let me tell you, I was not disappointed.
We get a really nice story between Nanako, one of the purest and nicest waifus ever to exist, and Eiji, a great supporting dude with a nice heart. The events happening are great, really felt inmersive and well-redacted, on the other hand of the manga version. We see a nice development of the relationship while meeting great characters, without anything really special, but being very enjoyable.
Art style and drawings were nice,…

Very simple and very cute, it's just one of those shows you just watch without having to think much. The characters are likable and they all have their moments. It's not one of those shows that will wow you but it's just a simple slice of life anime.
I enjoyed it for it's simplicity. Doesn't try too hard to be more then what it is presenting to us and it is something that just fun to watch. It's cute, it's funny, it's light hearted and it's short. So if you just want a simple plot with simple character enjoying each others company, it's worth a watch.
It's not gonna wow you or anything special, it's just a cute adorable anime.

Looking for something that can put you in a good mood? Senryuu Shoujo is THE show.
Although being very short (10 minutes episodes, 12 episodes in total) Senryuu Shoujo fills perfectly every single moment of its episodes.
It's a light and funny show, very well balanced in themes, bright in the animation and brilliant in the story; maybe not too realistic, but indeed enjoyable to its very end.
The characters are great, even if not well developed (due probably to the lack of screen time), they are easily perceivable. Also they include hidden gems such as Eiji, a breath of fresh air compared to other male lead characters in this kind of show.
The only 2 things that upset me of this anime are the lack of other regular male characters and the fact that there isn't a season 2 (yet).

This anime really turned my gloomy day into a happy one . I had watched anime non stop for 2 months and was bored so after many days I picked this up and I was really glad that I did, it made me fall in love with anime again thanks to the creators of this anime . It really made my day
Story is kinda unique and really enjoyable and funny, the characters and their expressions are are top notch I would rather say it has the best face expressions out of all the anime especially Nanako , I couldn’t keep my eyes away from her.
I had completed this anime in only one sitting

It may not seem to have one whole story, but then I like it on the way it is shown. I have fun even though its only for a short amount of time. Honestly, really hoping for a second season, the manga should have enough source for an second and even third season. At the same time probably they could extend the time of the anime. Really hope they will get the budget this time to do so. When I read the manga it seems like the anime had cut quite some scenes and its kinda sad, because those cut scenes are kinda the one that are thrilling and exciting.
I really hope they will make SECOND SEASON. This time I hope in anime they will finally accomplish the relationship of both MCSSSSS hehe looking forward to it.

One of the most wholesome anime i have watched in quite a while. Just pure and simple interactions between folks who have difficulties expressing emotions through words, and instead draw or write poems!
Barely any plot or complex storylines, it is an anime that simply does its job brilliantly in bringing a smile to your face when you are feeling down. 12-13 mins of content in each episode, if you are someone who is a genuine anime fan (regardless of genres), this is truly one of those must-watch anime
People who have high expectations from something they invest time and energy in may not probably like it too much for the reason that truly nothing changes from the first episode to the last, and hence the far too low rating it has here than it deserves, but do take the time to watch atleast…

This is a show you could call generic cute girl show, but however that's not the hole truth. The show could have started from where the 2 main character got to slowly know each other, but it went for different comedic approach instead of slice of life(which it still is I guess). This idea stems from the fact that even though it's a comedy I laughed or overall smiled maybe once or twice. I didn't count but not many times overall. I can't say it would have been better that way, but I could probably rate this show higher if it had invested more on the story/drama aspect and executed it properly.
The story wasn't that original it was largely seen in other school animes however it didn't really bother me in this particular show since the episodes are very short, about 12 minutes including open…

This anime is purest thing I've seen all year.
Senryuu Shoujo tries its best to fill that void in your heart, where innocence once used to lie, and I must say, it does a very good job at that. Here's why.
First off, the characters, literally every single one of them is so cute and innocent that you just feel clean watching the episodes. Nanako herself is as expected, the best thing about this anime. Watching her interact with everyone is always a very pleasant delight due to how innocently she handles her life.
Despite the vibe, this anime does manage to be funny. I really liked most of the comedic moments, although it is to be noted that the recurring gags get boring really quickly. Still, there isn't that many to really drag down the anime as a whole.
The art style is also really be…

A cute high school girl,
Yukishiro Nanako,
doesn't speak with words.
Instead of talking,
she speaks with written Senryū,
a poetry style.
Accompanied by
a Busujima Eiji, an ex-delinquent.
These two freshmen buds,
in the Literature Club,
create Senryū for fun!
These two and others,
create a slice of life anime,
of kawaii fun!
Senryū Girl is
honestly adorable,
a great short anime.
All the characters
steal the show from each other,
very frequently.
There isn't much plot,
but that isn't an issue,
far from it even.
The anime is fun,
it's that plain and simple,
so give it a try.
A short form anime,
with some cute girls doing cute things,
what's not to love?

This show is sweet. If you're looking for something to watch and in the mood for the most innocent and sweet main character that sees the best in everyone and everything, this is the show for you.
If I wanted to describe this show in a single word, it would be adorable. Just like the main character.
If you want to analyze what happens, you will get themes of isolation, friendship and not judging a book by the cover, or listening to rumors.
Personally, I just wanted to watch this show for the absolute cuteness of the main character and didn't want to think too hard.

Senryuu Shoujo is a lovely little show. It has a simple premise: an essentially mute, shy waifu (Nanako) is only able to speak through written poems, and the episodes chronicle her time with her hooliganish friend (Eiji). The show is essentially a gentle, wholesome slice-of-life with some good comedy and some cute romantic undertones.
The art is cute. It is not ultra-detailed, but I found it charming. There is a funny effect where nobody has a complete mouth when their lips are closed, though it didn't bother me. I think it fits with the show. The characters are drawn very nicely in my opinion, and I liked the character designs.
The sound is great! I can't stop listening to the OP haha. I also really like the voice acting. Nanako's (internal) voice is very moe <3.
In addition to Nanako…

My expectation towards this anime is not high, is a short and simple anime for me, that's why is quite enjoyable. Common art style. Cute and simple storyline make you feel comfortable towards the end. The only flaw I would to say is it didn't tell us much detail about Nanako develop incapable of speaking (mutism), other than that is quite sweet and enjoyable short anime. Character: you know chemistry between nanako and eiji is kidda okay and sweet. Overall, if you in the mood of watching short anime to pass some time, this anime will be satisfy you. Score = 8 (short anime)
