Introduction
In the distant past, Miguel, the God of Destruction, was sealed inside the knight who ruled over light and darkness, Sturmhurt. Alongside the knight was Gestöber, who accompanied him through countless battles. In the present day, destiny causes them to reincarnate as Kabuto Hanadori and Seri Koyuki, two classmates.
Their reunion should be a joyous moment, if not for the fact that these fantasied heroes are just products of Kabuto's delusions. As the fictional "Gestöber," Seri finds himself in various embarrassing situations due to Kabuto's antics that sometimes grow out of his control. Moreover, his classmate Utsugi Tsukimiya joins the fray with his absurdly accurate mind-reading abilities, slowly destroying Seri's social life.
Seri tries hard to stay away from them, refusing to acknowledge their shenanigans, however with Kabuto's chuunibyou and Utsugi's unpredictability, he is only bound to be swept by the craziness coming his way.

The story isn’t exactly unique, but it doesn’t need to be — the humor and timing make it stand out. Even when some jokes are predictable, they still land because the delivery fits the genre perfectly.
The characters are well-rounded — each has their own quirks and flaws that make them fun to watch, instead of just being “the smart one” or “the dumb one.” Their reactions feel natural, like how real people might respond in ridiculous situations.
Of all the comedy anime I’ve watched, I think this one is the best. I really love its humor—on the same level as Saiki K. In my opinion, this anime could even surpass Gintama if it had hundreds of episodes. Please, EMT, give this anime a continuation until the ending! 🙏🙏🙏

It wasn't good, it wasn't bad either.
Boku no Tonari ni Ankoku Hakaishin ga Imasu is an show about tsundere protagonist and his friends that really like him for some reasons. Unfortunately, Kyouki Seri AKA Gestober doesn't reciprocate their feelings (at least in his mind). This whole anime is an endless circle in which Seri is trying to escape from his friends, but ends up with them anyway. Through all 12 episodes, we encounter various funny moments, in which the main character survives trough different traumatic situations (caused by his companions). Along the way, we can see some side plots, but the main focus is on Seri and hate he has for his friends.
And this is also a thing that i didn't liked in this anime. The whole plot is repeated over and over. Every episode is too much simi…

At first, I was expecting another genre given the synopsis, but I don't mind the comedy, on the contrary. So I went in without much expectation, and I was still disappointed. Everything becomes confusing from the first episode.
And I've been confused in the past by some anime, but for this one, I didn't even want to understand, that's the feeling I felt from the start. Maybe it's my fault, who knows.
The characters are ok, but they don't stand out in my opinion, which is really important in an anime for me.
The storyline makes no sense which is neither interesting nor funny to me. I haven't even finished watching because it's so boring. I really like comedy anime but this one isn't it. I always finish what I watch, and I've really tried, but I can't. It's just not my cup of tea.

When I first started Bokuhaka, I found it unexpectedly charming because Hanadori the hopeless chuuni wasn’t the one being ridiculed, it was his “normal” classmate Seri who tried his best to not go along with his ridiculous roleplaying. By virtue of not being a cruel comedy when it easily could have been, I figured I could add it to the pathetic single piece of paper that comprises my Anime Comedy Good Book.
12 episodes later, I’m not so confident. While the series does hand Seri the L in every situation, I find that by relentlessly doing so it actually loses the touch of kindness a series like this could benefit from. Seri’s assumptions, even the wholesome ones – like his worries about Hanadori’s wellbeing, social or otherwise – are uno-reversed the same way his negative assumptions are.…

This is my first time making a review and It’s because I don’t want people to think this anime is bad. I personally don’t understand why this is rated so low. This was one of the most wholesome and cute animes I’ve watched. The characters are not unique but they are still super cute in their own way! This anime made me laugh so hard and it gave me hardcore secondhand embarrassment. It was definitely a fun watch!
I had my doubts because the first episode was not that nice, but this is the type of anime that grows on you. I felt like Koyuki was mean at first and I didn’t like the way he treated Hidenori who was a precious little bean, but eventually you realize that Koyuki is just a sweatheart that’s tsundere! This a beautiful anime about friendship and I hope people would see that :) it’s…

at first, I thought this was a fantasy genre because I saw from the synopsis that I might not understand. but, after seeing it I think wrong, this is a comedy genre that makes me laugh in every episode.
story: each episode has a funny story, although at first, I was a little confused with their characters after a long time I understood and laughed.
art: the animations don't need to be doubted, I think it's good.
sound: there is no bad sound from this anime, the voice from the character or, the background sound.
Character: I like the character, the behavior, and appearance that sometimes shows the chibi style makes them look funny. I like the chibi style from Hanadori Kabuto.
enjoyment: you will enjoy every story, in my opinion, the story is not boring, but more to the adorable, how you wil…

DEFINITELY MUST WATCH for the people who seeks light comedy anime THIS IS IT! my sis actually the one who told me to watch this and literally the first minute into the anime i just laugh my butt off. the characters are super likeable because they have their own uniqeness(?) and their own flaw. the art is sooo cuteee! applause for the animator for real. the story is great and overall it got a 10 from me. actually the only minus point ( IT'S NOT REALLY A MINUS POINT THO) this anime got from me is because they didn't continue the episode ;(( PLEASE SEASON 2 I BEG YOU! ( totally not trying to exaggerate my review and if you're not convince by my stupid review then please watch the anime :))…

When I was looking through the seasonal anime list, this thing caught my eye. Why? Because I speak German and reading the ridiculous name (Miguel Offenbarung Dunkelheit) of one of the main character’s alter ego, I had to laugh, so I watched it. Now on to the review.
This was a decent and rather wholesome anime.
The main character, Koyuki aka. ‚Gestöber‘ is an average, boring guy. He just wants to live a normal life and study to reach his dream, but crazy chuunibyou kids won’t leave him alone. Very simple premise. Koyuki tries not to get involved with them, pities them, thinks they are childish and also the reason for his average/worsening grades. He blames those guys for everything going wrong in his life. The thing, though, is that those guys are actually doing quite well in their own l…

5 - There was something you enjoyed. Still a bit forgettable, but not a waste of time.
This is honestly between a 5 or a 6, so Ill officially say 5.5
The story is sort of decent, but at times I just get bored. It's a comedy show, but it didn't really make me laugh too much. Somethings made me crack a smile, but I definitely wasn't laughing. There weren't any jokes that were good. It's just kind of eh.
The characters are pretty cool though, yeah. I'll admit that. Each person has some quirkiness. I think the dynamic between the three main characters is pretty funny. It may have not directed in laughs, but the idea of it IS a solid one. Their interactions are solid.
I think this would probably do better as a manga. If you're into ridiculous situations where the main character is just fl…

Definitely a hidden gem. I actually almost missed this show because it had so little popularity within the currently airing anime.
Boku no Tonari ni Ankoku Hakaishin ga Imasu is a great comedy show. The plot of the anime is nothing special: MC gets dragged along with a chuunibyou friend. This type of show has been done a bunch of times. But, why is it that something like Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai or Chuubyou Gekihatsu Boy average or even below average, and this show, very good in my eyes?
Well, I'd say that there are a lot of elements that make this show as good as it is, but let's first talk about one of the most important things about a comedy show: the characters. The main character is not your white bread japanese MC with their only personality trait being "kind." He definitely…

When i went into this anime i didn't excepted a lot, as it's not a story written to be transcendend. It reuses tropes that are already known to be funny, the story is pretty blend, with the use of manzai comedy.
I'd say the main character is not my favorite, as he seems very closed minded, compared to others characters ( Like the girl he pursues or his teacher ) So of these very colored characters who have a lot of interests, he seems to be like flour, a personnality that revolves around being too serious and cold, no club, don't seems to have a lot of hobbies either.
There is probably a lesson to get of all this, and that is that forcing yourself to get into the society shape will get you nowhere, and that being weird and having " weird hobbies " don't mean you are not intelligent, it'…

This anime is about 3 kids. 1 is like an upgraded version of Rika. And by upgrade I mean even more delusional, not better. He is in love with the supposed main character for some reason. The Main character is a masochist that likes to blame everyone for his shortcomings when he is the one to blame for having the temperament of a bob-omb. He almost literally explodes in fits of rage at the chuunibyou character. His indecisiveness makes him the most unlikable character in the show. Lastly there is the God of the show. He can hypnotize people with his eyes and read the MC's mind. He always uses this to pick on the MC. I was gunna say the MC probably enjoys it, but after thinking carefully he has anger issues and the people picking on him are an intelligent being who knows his everything and a…

To have a show like this mirror last season's surprisingly good Chuubyou Gekihatsu Boy in all aspects (plot and character) and with 100% inspired accuracy, needless to say I'm always quite skeptical of the chuunibyou gag formula at the start, and come out feeling satisfied at the end. Chuubyou Gekihatsu Boy did it to me last season, and this show is largely more of the same.
The extents of Chuubyou Gekihatsu Boy and this show play down the same game: a non-existent plot about the MC wanting to get some quietness out of life, and in comes the eccentric "otherworldly" boys playing around in their own world and messing the world's balance around with their antics, and finally the MC ropes in together with these boys in an unshakable bond of friendship.
Again, the characters are what makes s…
