I didn't expect that I had finished the anime recommended by a blog. At first, I was looking for some anime to recommend when I liked the slice-of-life and cooking genres, Ramen Daizuki also appeared on the list and became the first after I got addicted to Shouma in Food Wars!
I enjoy every episode presented by Ramen Daizuki, the story is very light and seems boring maybe for some people of course, and for some reason that's actually what I'm looking for. I like any genre of anime, even if it's boring, I can enjoy it.
I also give 8/10 for Ramen Daizuki overall because I can enjoy it hahaha. However, there is one interesting thing I want to ask the creators of Ramen Daizuki anime, why do I think that Yuu is a lesbian? I'm sorry about that because Yuu is sooo stands out, she's so obsessed…

ra-ra-ra-ramen daisuki koizumi-san~~~
D*mn that sh*t is so catchy lmao
Also, Opening is banger
Other than that, well, this is some pretty average series which I would forget in like a month or so. Other than the ramen part, I'd actually forget that I even watch this.
The yuri here is... bad. It's annoying almost.
For the characters, Yuu's main trait is being a lesbo, Misa is the typical girl that you'd either love or hate (I certainly liked her), Jun is just a bookworm who has backgrounds left unexplained, and lastly, Koizumi isn't even a character. She's a walking plot-device made to introduce Ramen to others. She's thinning the line between cardboard and Mary sue. All of them are one-dimensional characters which... is disappointing.
Overall it's the most 5/10 anime that I've watched.

TL;DR of this review -- this is more like a 12 episode commercial of really oddly flavored ramen.
If that's all you needed to know and you're ready to check another title's reviews, give a helpful.
Long version --
The art is standard at best, nothing to praise or cry about here. Art: 4
Sound: 4 -- also nothing stands out, and mostly typical stuff This show has effectively no character development, just personalities on a screen. They exist to eat ramen ala Shokugeki style, sometimes even having their yumgasms, but less ecchi. Characters: 2
What story? There is a girl named Koizumi. She likes to eat ramen. The end. Story: 1
I'm actually not sure why this isn't just a 30 second commercial/30 minute documentary about ramen...Anyway, the overall is: 2
I honestly wanted to give this a hi…

If there's one thing you need to know before watching this anime it's that you need AT LEAST 12 cups of instant ramen (one for each episode) so that you don't dehydrate from all the saliva that will be pouring out of your mouth from the delectable images that will be displayed on screen. The ramen looks pretty nice too.
I first heard of this anime from watching a short YouTube video called "Cutest German Loli You'll Ever See Kawaii Overload". Don't ask. But it mentioned the anime it came from in the beginning and I was intrigued. I mean, who wouldn't love an anime about cute girls eating ramen? AND BOY WAS THIS ANIME SOMETHING ELSE.
Story 10: Hojou-chan: "Guys, what if we make an anime with a cute protagonist". Takade-san: "Sounds SUPER ORIGINAL, what's the plot?". Hojou-chan: "...". The…

I Love ramen, ramen is life, I can't live without ramen. I love Japanese food.
The only reason I rate it 8 is because of ramen and the slurping and how detailed the food are, it makes me hungry for ramen. I do like the animation a lot. The opening song is pretty catchy and I like it.
The only problem is, it's not enough. I know the anime and manga explores different types of ramen but, it could've been better with better character chemistry and development. Nonetheless it's fun to watch and make sure you don't watch this with an empty stomach otherwise you'll start licking the monitor.

While a lot of people really hate on this show, I don't think it's that bad – you just have to take into consideration what it sets out to do. This is a show about ramen, with the story and characters being more or less a vessel to talking about various types of ramen, showing off real life restaurant chains, noodle brands etc., etc. If you want to know more about ramen, learn about and try out new variants of it, this is a show for you. If you expect anything more... Probably not.
This being said, the slice-of-life content is not horrible. Visual quality, character design, music and voice acting are all at a very decent level. The story is silly and purely episodic and some people can be irritated with certain elements of it (mainly the protagonist, Yuu, being absolutely obsessed with Ko…

Ramen is universal.....apparently
Ramen Daisuki Koizumi-san has a very loose plot, that of Koizumi-san voiced by Ayana Taketatsu eating ramen and giving the flavors of that ramen in question with Yuu Oosawa voiced by Ayane Sakura along with her friends Jun Takahashi voiced by Yumi Hara and Misa Nakamura voiced by Akari Kito following Koizumi's trips of ramen. Plot-wise, the structure of most episodes follows the setup LA just talked about repeated twice or thrice depending on the episode. The plot doesn't have any overarching elements to it besides Yuu trying to constantly befriend Koizumi but we get to know the characters and especially the mysterious Koizumi in the process.
On speaking of which, character-wise, the characters have some of the typical archetypes of the typical "cute gir…

You can think of this anime as some sort of ramen restaurant ad. Some of the places used in the anime (that I know of) are big hot spots for tourists/foodies.
You also get to learn ALOT about ramen- types of ramen, toppings, different types of restaurants to eat at, different locations in Japan to get ramen, etc.
Warning - Watching this anime makes you HUNGRY. My brother and I even went to get cup ramen after the convenience store ramen episode to eat.
Other than that, there is no outstanding characters or even story.
One of the MCs, Yuu, is obsessed over Koizumi, most annoying character to exist. Half of her lines are "Koizumi-san" and just downright clingy. This character is the "male replacement" in this all female anime.
Koizumi- She dont give an "f" about anything other than r…

TL;DR: This is the type of show where you should stop picking out the bad parts of it objectively and just enjoy the show as a comforting show as a break from our tiring daily lives.
I'm still bad on writing reviews, so I will focus on parts that I can express my thoughts on it well
Ramen Daisuki Koizumi-san is an anime about a girl who loves ramen, her eating ramen from all sorts of places, mostly around Japan and people she met while doing it(not necessarily becoming really good friends). The theme itself is already pretty interesting, attracting people who likes ramen or wants to know about ramen, or maybe even people who just wants to watch a show focusing on food.
Story-7/10
as you would expect from an anime about food, there isn't much of a story going on other than developments o…

Decades from now, as I lay, slowly freezing from the nigh-inevitable nuclear winter a jingle shall come across my mind.
"Du du du du ramen, daisuki, Koizumi-san."
I shall laugh, wondering where on Earth I heard such a tune, for the anime itself will be long forgotten into a haze of ramen and slurping noises.
TLDR: (Because Myanimelist won't let me write a shorter review)
The most memorable thing about Miss Koizumi Loves Ramen Noodles is that mid-scene jingle, which is kinda fun to hum while making ramen noodles. That is to say, I probably won't remember anything about it a year from now. Edit: It's been about two years and my prediction was spot on.

[No Ramen, No Life]
Ramen. A dish that combines a broth with noodles and various toppings to form a savory meal. It’s one of my favorite dishes, and if given the chance, I would like to eat the dishes that Koizumi ate. The show succeeds by informing and providing the viewers an ample amount of information regarding ramen. However, the story is very repetitive and gets old quickly, and the characters are uninteresting, including one annoyance.
STORY:
Story summary: Koizumi is a beautiful and mysterious high school student, who enjoys eating ramen. Everyday, she hunts for the best ramen restaurants and eats at it.
The story is simple and repetitive. Each episode contains two to three segments about the various types of ramen that Koizumi consumes. These segment, while somewhat connected…

This was a really good anime to fill the break between Shokugeki no Souma seasons but not something I will ever feel the need to rewatch. For me, this anime can be broken down into two parts, one of which is really high and the other is really low.
The really high was the ramen. The exploration of ramen in this show was just fantastic and I really learned a lot. It became a ritual at our house to make ramen and watch a couple episodes and apply what we'd learned last time. When the show is covering ramen, I'd rate it a 9 or 10.
The really low was the character relationships. Yuu was just plain creepy. I was pretty sure for a while that this was going to take a twist and become a horror anime. Sadly, it did not. I wonder if the main character is a girl in the hopes that her stalker behavi…

Ms. Koizumi Loves Ramen Noodles is comprised of two plots. The first is the standard and incredibly boring group of high school girl anime stereotypes going on adventures tangentially related to the main character, Koizumi, featuring one of my least favorite tropes of all time: a girl with a creepy obsession who can't take "no" for an answer and is one genre-shift away from going full yandere. This part of the series of abysmally boring and I often find myself getting distracted when it's the focus.
The reason I kept watching Ms. Koizumi Loves Ramen Noodles despite its dreary side characters is Koizumi herself and her adventures - Koizumi, like me, just wants to talk about ramen and be left alone by her fellow students. Each episode's other half features her going to various ramen joints,…

I am not sure exactly why I continued to watch this show other than I like Ramen and the episodes when Yuu was not presents are actually good.
Story - 3
Every episode is composed of a few mini-stories. The beginning of the anime is boring, but after the first 3 or 4 episodes it was easier to digest, especially the episodes without Yuu. It is more enjoyable to see Koizumi interacting with the other characters and they enjoy ramen more, when Yuu is present in the episode I just can't get over the stalkerish vibe and her obsession with Koizumi.
Art - 7
The art is changing. There are scenes when it's simple and nothing special, and scenes (especially those when Yuu is not present and more towards the end of the anime) in which the background is so detailed and the lines are like a sketch, wi…

Este anime me ha hecho disfrutar de la misma manera que lo hizo el dorama. Esta versión animada está muy bien desarrollada y es muy divertida a la hora de su visualización. Hay mucha variedad de ramen y es más extenso que el dorama, lo que es un punto a favor. Sin embargo, tiene muy pocas coincidencias con el dorama, así que, de esta manera le reduce algo a la valoración. Lo recomiendo 100% y ha sido uno de los mejores animes de esta temporada de invierno, en la categoría de comedia.
I have enjoy this anime as the dorama. The animated version it's developed very good and it's so pleasant. There're many types of ramen and it's longer than dorama, that's a point in favour. However, it doesn't have many coincidences in relation to the dorama, so the rating decrease. I recommend it 100% and,…

Why should you watch Ramen Daisuki Koizumi San?
The story is Fair (6). There's nothing fancy about the story. It's about a girl obsessed with ramen being stalked by her classmate who is obsessed with her. And a ton of useful? facts about ramen, its history, and how to enjoy them best.
Art is Very Good (8). I say very well but not in the character department but in how they animate ramen in the story. Each ramen dish is distinct from one another from the color and texture of the soup and noodles to the side dishes that go along with them.
Sound is Very Good (8). It is due to how it induces the feeling that you are in whatever restaurant Koizumi and here classmates dine for a bowl or two of ramen. Additionally, the sound they make while and after finishing a bowl of ramen is hunger-induc…

Ramen Daisuki Koizumi-san is a show dedicated to showing off the glorious wonder that is RAMEN NOODLES. College Students suffering from the ol' "I eat ramen 24/7" fatigue need not worry because this show makes Ramen look so good, you'll be wishing for a bowl every episode.
Unfortunately, the story in this show is very mediocre. Essentially, there's a girl, Koizumi-san, who is obsessed with Ramen and then there is another girl, Yuu, who is obsessed with Koizumi-san. You also have Yuu's friends but honestly they don't compare to the main two.
Yuu has an unhealthy obsession with Koizumi-san that can really get unbearable at times but her friends brush it off apparently? And then there's Koizumi-san with the unhealthy obsession with Ramen where she's eating 5-6 bowls a day and acting like it…

Do you like Ramen? Do you like cute girls? Nice. Because that's all you're getting by watching this show.
Let me rephrase that. The main star of this show is the Ramen in all of it's variations and locations to be consumed and the cute girls are just cardboard cutouts showcasing the dish and the culture behind the consumption of this dish.
Don't be fooled, although this might end up in the same category of other food porn shows like Shokugeki, or Koufuku Graffiti the visuals on the dishes are just passable without being memorable, specially since it's always Ramen. The difference between those shows and Ramen Daisuki is that those have either a story arc with plenty of characterization or just endearing character interactions with the cast. Ramen Daisuki makes no effort in gathering the…

I love CGDCT. It's one of my favorite genres and provides a fun, happy viewing experience. Whether it be one that does a lot to make the characters stand out and relate their personal struggles while also keeping it fun, or whether it be one that diverts away from more developmental aspects just to have fun I find the genre to be rewarding to watch. There are even some CGDCT that do very little outside of the bare minimum that are still fun to watch due to the joy that I get from watching cute friends being friendly with each other.
I state this for a reason. Sometimes in reviews you get people who don't like the genre coming in and trashing a show that was never made to appeal to their interests. That isn't the case here. I really enjoy CGDCT, and even a bad one can have moments worth wa…
