It's a really great coming of age anime, revolving around a bratty immature girl(MC) learning to be more honest with herself/others and to see both the good and the bad in both people/situations instead of just the bad or the good, it's character driven more so than story driven but the characters are all pretty great.
First two episodes give a kinda bad/misleading first impression regarding how perverted the guy is/his personality, but it's to set up an important twist later on that's really important to the narrative(from a how are we going to tie all the story elements together angle), if the only thing making you want to drop this upon first trying it is the your first impression of the guy try to stick with it at least through episode 3 before deciding it's too over the top, the guy…

*May contain spoilers* Idk honestly :p
Tonagura! is a comedic romance anime about 4 childhood friends. The story follows Yuuji Kagura and his little sister as well as Kazuki Arisaka and her older sister.
The story was good but I feel a lot of it's viewers at first won't really see the bigger picture to it. They'll probably think that Kazuki is on the right side of things while Yuuji is in the wrong. I personally feel that boys his age will behave that way because that's when hormones begin to pump and they tend to be very unbalanced when we are all young. (boys and girls included) So the idea that Yuuji isn't what Kazuki had imagined to me isn't quite accurate. She expects him to behave like this shining knight from her fantasies and doesn't realize or notice how the other boys their age…

Ever wanted to find a good rom-com anime that'll make you think, "Hey! That was probably one of the best anime I've ever watched, sad to see that there's no season 2 of it," well look no further, because you won't be definitely thinking that after you've seen this anime.
Story: 5/10
Barely any story, it was just basically a "Hey, that happened so let's add on to that!" type anime. It wasn't done that badly, though. The comedy side on this anime is light-hearted, but it happens mostly when Yuuji is being perverted either towards Kazuki or someone else. If this was just a romance anime, I would've voted the story a 2, as it was mostly a one-sided romance anime.
Art: 7/10
When I was going to review this anime, I would've thought it was an anime that was made around 2010-2011, but when I l…

Tonagura! or as I like to think of it, The anime that was almost amazing. Although, at first glance it may seem like just another one of those cliched childhood romance animes. It's actually better then it seems. In fact, I was only about 3 episodes into it when it actually grabbed my attention and didn't let me stray for 1 second.
Story: The story isn't really complex at all. In fact, it's actually pretty straightfoward. there's no thinking involved or even guessing. The synopsis on the anime IS what the anime is about. It's funny though and although I've read in other reviews of this anime that it's ecchi filled, I found that to be sort of untrue. I mean in comparison to animes like High school DxD and High school of the Dead this anime is pretty mild at best.
Characters: Omg i love…

Up front this is a very poorly made anime unless you like watching anime with no action, romance, or any story development/drama. The basis for the story is alright albeit cliche, a girls first love comes back after 10 years but he is different than she remembers (he became a pervert).
The characters in the entire anime have been some of the most generic ever seen (the kind older sister that can do anything with ease, the pervert who has little skill at anything and gets hit for his perverted actions, and finally the girl with a short temper for perverted action).
not only does the story take FOREVER to develop, once again in animes that the creator cant think of a suitable ending, everyone is right back where they started with almost no understanding of the other characters in the story…

what do you do when the guy you find out that the guy you had a crush since childhood turns out to be obnoxiously lewd and perverted, add a little sister with an air gun and lots of echi moments and you'll have yourselves great comedy

Really, Tonagura! is an anime that requires a certain taste to enjoy. So let me do some people a favor and say, if your here for a plot filled romantic / comedic adventure, then leave now as you won't be amazed. Likewise if you are here for something completely different... then unless you haven't watched any comedic anime before, you might as well leave as well. What Tonagura! does, is scrap the story, and pull together a lovable cast of characters, some simple and not very original, but overall very enjoyable. It then ties it all together with a great many great comedic moments. So if you think THAT may interest you, then read on dreamer.
Now like I said, the story is simple... and probably came together in the authors mind in about 20 minutes. Childhood friends leave for a long time, a…

If there's one thing I definitely did while watching Tonagura!... it was laugh. Throughout the story there has been so much going on in the comedy department; that I consider it a miracle if one does not enjoy this Anime.
However, does this Anime have more to offer than it's splendid comedy? Not as much in the story department. There is close to no story going on; and the story that does goes on is as typical as it can get, of course there is also -who wouldn't have guessed it- a child promise and childhood friend to be found.
But don't get me wrong; because even cliches like Tonagura can have plenty to offer. For one, it's visuals. It is drawn quite perverted as that is where most humor is based on. So then it is nothing more than your every day Harem/Comedy/Romance anime? So it indeed…

This anime being a simple childhood love story, is pretty good. It can be great but it lacks some important things in the creativity department. This is not a "must-watch", but it's also not a "not-watch"
Tonagura starts out well. A girl's fantasy that went wrong and then the funniness begins. It has good comedy, enough to make you laugh sometimes and it has a bit of drama too. Good, satisfactory story.
The art is the main problem here. It wasn't consistently good. Everything looked fine, but just fine and nothing past that. I'm most disappointed by the hairstyles. Most characters don't look very good because of that. The violence lacks creativity too. The first two punches are funny, then it begins to loose its magic, but it regains a little afterwards. It's a zigzag of improvement and…

Simple enough story of a childhood friendship between Yuuji and Kazuki. Yuuiji parents decided to move so this meant that he has to move away from Kazuki.
After 10 years he has returned.... Perverted.
She hates perverted people and for most of the anime its about his urges and some funny moments with this. The story is quite simple its just about how close they get by the end of the anime, the only thing that makes these episodes barable is Kazuki's sister Hatone and Yuuji's sister Marie with her Gun :).
These funny moments keep this anime alive, having a plain story not alot happens throughout the anime which is annoying but still it was watchable but not what i expected.

Tonagura! is basically an ecchi anime. There are a lot of fanservice and the requisite male character who always finds himself being slapped, kicked, and hit because of his perverted ways.
I like the premise of the story because it deals with a childhood friend and crush who the female character meets again. Trouble is - the person Kazuki remembers from her childhood is not the same as the one she is seeing now. But as the series progresses, you might become annoyed with Kazuki for her continuous (and sometimes unfair) abuse for Yuuji - who is just probably just a little bit more perverted than boys his age.
One of the more interesting characters who shine in this anime is Kazuki's older sister who is perfect - her evil, sadistic ways notwithstanding. She cosplays a lot - depending on th…
