Introduction
When Mizuki Hijiri transferred to a new school, all she wanted was to live a normal school life, but that did not prove to be the case when she met the infamous Hero Club. All of its members are boys suffering from various types of chuunibyou—Yamato Noda is a righteous hero, using his athletic abilities to perform noble deeds and protect others; Kazuhiro Nakamura claims to be the reincarnation of "Touga Ryushouin," the result of the forbidden union between a demon and an angel; Tomoki Takashima is a pretty-boy otaku whose one true love is the 2D anime girl Sora; and Rei Tsukumo plays the role of a schemer, covertly pulling the strings.
Dragged along as the newest member of the Hero Club, tepid Hijiri can't obtain the normalcy that she desires. But even so, despite their various quirks, their bonds of friendship are real; Hijiri's life can only get more exciting when she joins in on their delusions of grandeur!

good Here’s the thing about Chuubyou Gekihatsu Boy. In truth I don’t need this show to work for me for fall to succeed as a season. It’s strictly gravy – anything I get from it is a bonus. That said, with a series you pick out as a potential sleeper, especially one based strictly on gut, there’s always a little extra rooting interest. I certainly want it to succeed, even if it’s not part of the core of shows that for me carry the weight of this season on their backs.
Although I did indeed set this series aside in my mind as one to keep an eye on based strictly on a feeling, when one dug a little deeper there were a few more tangible reasons to do so. Director Ichikawa Kazuya did the very underrated – and cleverly-directed – Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama-kun, and writer Gotou Midori (Aoyama-kun,…

one of the best comedy shows I ever saw. I discovered it by chance at the beginning of 2020, when I was delving into the anime universe. he is incredibly fun, creative, goofy and spontaneous. his characters have excellent characterization and he advances safely.
is something like the lost brother of Chuunibyou demo koi ga shitai, which is also one of the most entertaining comedy shows I ever saw.
and it makes me feel very happy. watching these two shows is my laugh in front of my computer, I can't control it.
if you haven't seen this show yet, i want to tell you to consider it seriously, because outburst dreamer boys is the quintessential comedy anime

It is highly entertaining so I'd recommend it if you are in a search for comedy.
Story 7/10
As its genre is comedy, there's no need to have the best story actually. But I liked the way how the story goes in every episode individually, and there's not a major development in the plot overall. Some parts felt like if they have been added later to the plot, but it isn't disturbing.
Art 10/10
As expected from a 2019 anime, the art is good. The background art is also good. I liked how they used the colors.
Sound 7/10
As far as I know, the whole anime is inspired by a song, and its opening is a cover of it. The soundtrack is not memorable, but the opening theme is pretty catchy. I even heard Bach's Air twice or so and it surprised me. Music is on point and it is pleasing.
Character 10/10…

In the beginning it was quite cringey that I actually stopped watching after ep 1. But I'm really glad I gave it another shot! By ep 4 I was already rolling on the floor laughing.
In the end, I got attached to the characters really well that I wanted to watch more. I love the character growth I've seen through the episodes. Noda is very amusing to watch he's like a blue, hyper version of Deku lol (doesn't surprise me since they have the same voice actor).
Overall, I really enjoyed it. The comedy is indeed gold in this. I've always wondered why it wasn't very popular but the general reviews are positive. Well, it deserves the praise it's getting!

As a huge fan of Volcaloid, you could say that watching Chuubyou Gekihatsu Boy was pretty much mandatory for me.
However, did it live up to my expectations? Of course not. It's an overall OK run of the mill slice of life/comedy show. It features a cast of characters in the "hero Club," reminiscent of the Sket Dance club. Is it better than Sket Dance? Yes, but that's also just my opinion. Sket Dance and Chuubyou have a pretty similar concept and plot, but honestly, Chuubyou executes a bit better than Sket Dance did. Not to say that this show was great, but Sket Dance was just kind of bad in my opinion. Compared to Sket Dance, Chuubyou kind of has better character development and characters in general, I guess.
However, I digress. Onto the review. The show has a total of three or so prett…

There's a large amount of anime where there's a bunch of chuunibyou characters, and most of them tend to be female characters, and usually directed towards the male audience. For one thing, this anime reminded me a lot of Konosuba, since the boys are very similar to Aqua, Megumin, and Darkness as they all have a kind of chuunibyou complex, acting grander than they really are, which isn't a bad thing (theres even a reference to Megumin's explosion attack when Nakamura does one of his "attacks" :p). However, Chuubyou Gekihatsu Boy puts a refreshing spin on that aspect, giving an entire group of bishie boys that grandiose character.
Chuubyou Gekihatsu is one of the funniest anime put out by Sentai Filmworks, centered around five boys with a chuunibyou complex, part of their club called the H…

Well OH well, is this another outing for Chuunibyou in awhile. But for the most part, this felt like a mix of the popular KyoAni's take of the Chuunibyou series with "Daily Lives of Highschool Boys" for a combination of some "over-the-top" shenanigans with decent execution but all in all, a good stress-reliever of a show.
To give some context, coming from an unrecognized novel, and then converted to a Vocaloid song (which is quite immensely popular) can be said about the origins of this show, that's where the OP comes about, and I'd have to say that while I'm not a fan of Vocaloid music (other than that Actors one which was terrible), this one was quite the funny boner, and a good one to listen to on its own (while the Vocaloid one is immensely better downright).
In this show, all I'd ha…

This is one of my all time favorite anime. Besides the fact that it is based on a vocaloid song the energy and pure joy from this series is incredible. I'm not really one for comedy anime but this was so good, it made me genuinely laugh quite a lot. The story is well paced for the most part, sometimes things go a bit fast but nothing too major. I believe that there is potential for a second season but I doubt they will make one. Hopefully the OVA will be good. This anime is definitely not for everyone but those who love fun characters and chuunibyou I say give it a shot!
