Each episode is really short, it's a quick and easy watch. Loved binging it lolol
It's def strange but I guess I'm easily entertained! Every interaction between characters, monster and wife i guess, are suuuuuper sweet! ♡♡♡♡♡♡
The art style is kinda unique i guess? It's easy on the eye.
Characters do have distinct personalities and they're very entertaining.
I think the story might not be very unique, but i'm not here for too unique/niche either, i know what i like. I'd say it is very predictable tho.
I think others can like this but i feel some might find it boring, or too short.

All I can say is that as dumb and nonsensical as this show is....it is still better than Dark Cat.
I am only taking the time to write this because I am bored. I only finished the show because the episodes are like 2 mins long. I kept watching because of the same mechanism that is used when we see a wreck and just find ourselves having to look.
And I can't post the above which is frankly all that is needed because I didn't meet some sort of word quota. I don't understand why male students are being picked by male monsters to get married to. Why is the male students becoming wives when they could just choose actual women? Why are there female monsters and they pick guys and the guys are still the wives????? Why is this happening???????????? What happened in this world that this is a thing…

EXTRA!!! EXTRA!!! Local male highschool students forced into a child marriage with monsters!
Local sixteen year old boy becomes te wife of an moomin! Possible Mpreg, that will make you go why Japan!?! or learn something new about yourself!!!! Get it while it's hot!!!!
In all seriousness i have watched my fair share of werid anime, but this takes the cake it seems like it would be cute and i can see that was what they were going for but if you really look into the details of the key scenes a bit more, you may feel what i felt when my cronic over thinking brain was thinking whilst being sucked into an inescapable horror that kept on revealing it self the longer I watched. You will find some unsettling details: The surprise monster spouse for young childern, The fact these kids don't know t…

Personally, it wasn't one of my favorites. The idea is very unique, and it was fun to watch a quick little short anime. Some parts I found rather weird, however that's more just personal preference and not a true problem with the anime itself. The art in the show was pretty good, considering how short it was. The art style was fitting for the story. One thing that got on my nerves a little bit about this show was that not a single person reacted how anyone else would in the real world. Perhaps that's a stylistic choice or some metaphor that I'm missing? I have mixed feelings about recommending this; I don't know much people in my friend group at least that would like this, but I can see someone who enjoys cute fluffy chibi animals, etc. enjoying Jingai-San no Yome.

Can't tell whether this was Beastiality or Pedophilia. But I couldn't stop watching but wasn't long enough to process either.
Is the story unique? Yes. Definitely. It's about arranged marriage with spirits. Not something you see every day,
Do you think the art style is fitting for the story? Yes, the cutest imagery and character design made it oddly wholesome.
Do you think others will enjoy/dislike this series, even if you didn't? Why? I didnt dislike or like this series. I more or less was intregued on what i was watching as the episodes didnt give you time to process it all. Definitely no rewatch value, maybe a good enough recommendation for someone who wants weird/oddly wholesome shows?

A short review for a short "anime"
Imagine you're in school and while you're busy sitting at your desk being bored listening to the teacher drone on someone comes into the school and is greeted by a teacher who shows them a graduation school book. This acts as a catalogue that they may choose any student from the student body to marry without any prior consent or knowledge. This is completely normal in this society and is in-fact encouraged by the treacherous teacher who not only willingly, but happily plays her part in the system. And as the man flips through the pages the picture of a particular student spots their eye and their greasy finger slides up to point at it- their choice made, and a life stolen.
But because it's a big furry bear-like creature it's totally okay.
Yeah fuck th…

The story of this anime 'Jingai-san No Yame is pretty decent. Its like a cute and adorable story but it also has a twist. For me it was kinda weird what the story was leading to.
The art was good of the anime. Its not like very special but still pretty good.
The characters threw me off. I dont know but i really didn´t like how they were. The main character was boring and there was no background. They should´ve do atleast something. Enjoyment of this anime was okey. I just watched to kill some time and how i found the anime was through Tiktok. I didn´t think the episodes are going to be 3min long. What i loved is the outro or the opening, it was a bop.
Overall i give it a 5/10

There's often an expectation that anime should be masterfully written and expertly crafted. I feel like this expectation leads people to avoid consuming anime from the perspective in which it was created.
Jingai-san no Yome is very much dependent on its premise for its content - monsters marrying boys in high school and the weird antics they have. Each episode is only 3 minutes, effectively capturing a brief scene in the lives of the characters.
Watching this anime was pleasant and entertaining for me, even though it's not a highly-funded production. It was short, inconsequential, and pretty cute, which is really all I could ask for.

This anime is 3 minutes per episode, 12 episodes, and tries very hard to be cute but falls flat in every department. While running forward at breakneck speeds and not explaining itself at all we enter a world where it is okay for teenage boys to be married off to what appear to be monsters or yokai that they've never met before.
Normally, this is where I would ring up the furry community, but none of the featured creatures match eachother in any way. They call their chosen boys "wives" and each boy fulfills very feminine rolls like cooking, dating, wearing the dress at the wedding, etc.
With such a limited runtime of 3mins per episode, this feels more like a sunday paper comic brought to life than any sort of cohesive story. I like cute, I don't mind gender-swapping roles or romance, bu…

What makes an effective psychological horror? Is it the claustrophobic ambiance evoked, your deepest fears that writhe in the deepest crevices of your mind unveiled, or perhaps the dawning of existential dread crawling up your spine, as you realize you will one day die? “Sure, all of them work,” I would have said two days ago. But that was the old me; she is now dead and buried, being feasted on by worms. No, the new me has seen a comedy anime that inadvertently threw away all my ancient preconceptions on what constituted truly disturbing horror out the window.
Welcome to the fucked up world of Jingai-san no Yome.
Oh sure, the cover photo looks cutesy. A demure teenage boy sitting awkwardly with his sentient throw rug of a monster sidekick, right? Maybe we can expect some light-hearted…

Just... Why....?
To be honest, I checked this short anime out because of all the attention it received from tiktok. It was weird enough to make me want to check it out... and as expected, I did not enjoy this one bit. I finished all 12 episodes (considering they're only 3 minutes each, it was a fast experience) around midnight with a friend over the phone, and God was this a nightmare. The only way you'd enjoy watching this anime is if you were into making yourself suffer and you like questioning your own existence. The whole concept is just so weird and appaling. Is this somehow the writer's secret fantasy? Is the writer a furry? I don't know but I'm gonna start having nightmares I think.

There is nothing in it. It's not funny, not cute, not touching, not even eye pleasing, nothing. It's so bad it doesn't even deserve an ironic review which would only lure people into thinking "it's so bad it's good", but it's not the case.
So what do we got here? We are in a world where young males are chosen at school by weird creatures to become their wives. The young males have no prior knowledge of the creatures, have never spoken with them, and yet they all seem very pleased and instantly fall in love. The creatures range from small piggy like things to huge bear like creatures, not to forget female one winged cyclops twins. To make things better, half of those creatures do not speak. How do they reproduce? No idea, and the show won't give a clue (fortunately!).
One day, the main pr…

Lets lead with: 12 eps each 3 minutes long- 36 minutes of your time max. Skip the ending song- then it is like 20 minutes of your time so just do it. Probably could have it finished and have your own view in the same amount of time as reading the reviews.
Story 8: It was super unique! I think people keep getting caught up in the fact that the men are considered wives and arguing that this is a BL but really the creatures are not given verbal genders. You could argue that the twins are female (or they could be a trap lol) and they still call the guy their wife. It is just the anime being quirky ok. Anyway the eps are short and the anime is short but it got the point across!
Art 8: It was consistent and just something about it was unique. Like I really liked the eyes. It was simplistic, whic…

Going in expecting nothing groundbreaking-- I honestly appreciate the refreshing simplicity and absurd humor Jingai san no Yome has to offer.
This is one of those shows that are incredibly short, not meant to make logical sense, and work as a brief piece of simple, lighthearted entertainment. Perfect if you don't have 30 minutes to spare, but still want some light entertainment. Perfect if you don't have much mental energy to spare and are looking for just that little pick up to refresh and recharge your spirit.
Cute art, cute boys, cute creatures. Funny fetishes, funny pairings and lightheartedness. This is not an anime for overthinking, nor is it a huge investment of time or energy. Story, plot, substance obviously don't offer much, because that isn't the intention here. And really, go…

This anime really made almost no sense. Each episode was 3 minutes.
At the outset we find a few of the local High School boys are betrothed by a method not really explained. The central character is Tomari Hinowa who marries a strang creature. Tomari and a few of his friends all end up marrying creatures called Kanenogi (カネノギ) which could be described as sort of like alien & yokai although this is never really explained.
The creatures are referred to as the "Husband's" and the boys are referred to as the "Wife's" which isn't really explained. The boy's do exibit traits of doting wives and they find themselves in many one shot scenarios stereotypical of engaged couples and newlywed's.
The whole series was a good way to waste 36 minutes of my life.

So... This is my first review so go easy on me.
This anime is basically about 4 couples, all of them constituted by one human (a teenage boy in the case) and one supernatural creature (that goes from a kind of yellow and superfluffy bear to cyclope twins, being the twins married with the same guy). It shows their daily life basis as a married couple, the "wifes" taking care of the house and sometimes even doing more romantic stuff like going on a date.
Story: I give it a 6, although I enjoyed it I recognize that the story is plain, there's no drama or what so ever, it's a pretty white and simple slice of life I would say.
Art: I give it a 6 again, the characters are cute, especially the creatures, but , again, simple. There's nothing wrong about it being simple but there's nothing that yo…

A show like Jingai-san no Yome merits a simple review. It's a simple show and there isnt much to it but it is nice for those that are like me and like what its selling. The show revolves around cute boys and weird creatures that pick them as their wives. Note: not husbands, wives.
You may wonder how any of that makes sense and why they would be wives but that's part of the appeal of the show
Its basically monster boy x human boy yaoi featuring the human boys thrown into the wife role. It resembles art and scenarios I've seen on deviantart and tumblr. Espeically with how the boys are designed. They look less conventional and more scene-like, with multicolored hair, messy or long hair, and sometimes often scowls.
In my eyes it's clear what this anime is marketed towards. And for that mar…
