The Anime obviously doesn't end properly, please look at the Manga for an actual ending of the series (I get told it has endings for each character).
I find this season to be a definite improvement over the last season, but for every fix it added, it made the story feel brushed off and inconsistent, no to mention, rushed.
The MC completely seems like a generic character that no one should care about but is put on a pedestal for the show. The animation isn't bad, but the CGI in the finale really sucks and is makes a migraine looking at the poor CGI. The story is improved from the previous but every episode has weird moments that really make the viewer go "The same trope for the 20th time, how creative" and doesn't add upon what the previous season had, which is really the worst part.

CGI the only reason this isn't a 10 is because the use of CGI was really distracting and felt out of place with the frame rate of the models. It looked stiff and almost laggy especially next to the beautifully drawn 2d backgrounds and trying to mesh the two types of animation together just does not work.
That said what a ride this series was, it grabbed my attention and never let it go until the ride was over. I loved the characters and their voice actors and how they somehow made fan service lewd and wholesome at the same time was just a perfect blend. For the first time ever this is the one harem series where every girl is best girl. It doesn't matter who is on screen because each character has a strong presence no matter what is happening and you can tell the voice actors and writers p…

This was even worst than the first season. And you thought it was impossible.
No plot for the first 7 episodes. just disconnected stories with strange coincidences, no new development or anything, just boobs. Small, big, from "inadvertently exposed", to the point of "if you want to touch them, I don't mind". And that little sister going a little too far, it's just uncomfortable.
Then 2 episodes about family, and 3 about the usual school festival, nothing really original, actually not that bad, but not enough to save the rest of the show.
It looks like the author ran out of ideas, and the studio had to fill in with very little material for most of the season.

The anime was fine, and it is exciting to watch it, because it got lots of fan services. However, the anime ended at a very incomplete cliffhanging way. If you guys wanted to watch the continuation of which girl yuiga will choose. I would suggest go and read the manga, the author made it in such a way that yuiga will pick all the girls one by one. Something like route ending. Well I maybe more fond of watching an anime with a one whole plot, but this way is not so bad after all. Goodluck guys have fun reading the manga.

The formula that worked nicely on the first season made the second very boring. I am getting tired of watching anime where nothing changes from episode to episode. I liked the first season, when meating new characters it is hard to get bored by the daily life, but season 2 brought nothing special, just the same old story I was starting to get tired of.
The first 9 episodes made literally no difference in the plot progression. The same daily life is boring now and I struggled to went through the beggining of the series. With almost no character development it seemed like I was watching the same episode lots of times.
All the interactions and events that happened seemed to have already happened in the first season and it was very frustrating to see everything be forgotten by the main cast o…

Here's the thing. I really like anime that focus on the education journey for entrance exams, because I went through that myself. So, it's the reason why I have a soft spot for this anime.
BOKUBEN is pretty good, in my opinion. The characters are fun and have their own little quirks which are fun to explore, although they don't really have any developments in character other than a love for the oh so perfect MC.
The MC is pretty basic, nothing too outstanding although I like how they show that he too has dirty thoughts and is not this perfect being of innocence. I couldn't hate him though.
The OST is also super nice to listen to. I really loved the soundtracks. They're worth a listen on their own, I'd say.
Coming to the art style, I.. really like it. Not because of the ecchi scenes, t…

At the time writing about the first season of this series, I was already referring to it as a simple series that without doing anything particularly innovative or striking in what at first glance seemed to be little more than a list of clichés to be fulfilled, manages to have its own charm and was one of the series that I enjoyed watching week by week. With the second season I have to say that it is a fairly similar case, it is still a romantic comedy with harem elements in appearance of the bunch, but with enough charisma to remind me why I like this kind of series even with its small flaws, that its honesty in what it is feels comfortingly familiar among so many other works that try to play around with the metanarrative or the clever twists but fail in the attempt.

Season 2 is mostly follows the similar formula as season 1, numerous jokes here and there, overly lucky main character and also; fanservice. But compared to season 1, season 2 is actually slightly funnier in some areas though the storyline, while its actually a bit interesting, gets ruined by the mediocre ending.
I noticed that some jokes are repeated with season 1 but for some reason the jokes here are slightly funnier and other jokes are actually really funny and enjoyable.
The animation is essentially the same as season 1 and the sound and music are also the same. Characters are hilarious but storywise, the characters doesn't really get anywhere.
All in all, this season is quite enjoyable and the weak ending doesn't really destroy the series that much.

It was only over a year ago that I made the decision. While browsing the seasonal chart, picking up shows that I caught my interest until I ended up with an odd number. I love my numbers, but even more so, the even ones, so Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai was the pick that balanced up my seasonal collection of the time, hoping I would grow fond of it, episodes by episode, it turned up to be even better than the shows I was especially hyped about.
Eventually, the season ended, and the show left a noticeable void that I was only able to overcome when I knew about the second season's announcement, and it was in the same year. Sweet.
Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai! was just the continuation I was waiting for; a sequel that lives up to your expectation, airing relatively shortly after its pre…

Have you ever watched an anime and thought to yourself that such things like "developed characters that experience growth throughout the series and end in a different place from where they started" or "jokes that are written and develop onto each other too leave many laughs to come in future watches" maybe perhaps "a story that actually gives the audience this thing called PROGRESS" are becoming such a bore for you as a viewer? Well do I have got good news for you then. Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai! is the show for you because it has not only done away with all of those pesky things but instead has substituted it with such wonderful things as... .... well nothing.
I'm sure many people will try to convince you of this shows many "positives" such as cute girls, and..... cute girls, and…

Another season has come and gone and so along with it the continuation of a trashy harem series. At this rate, if you've watched the first season or other harem in general, you knew what you were getting with this. Time for my review of the second season of We Never Learn.
Story-
Our story of course, is the continuation of a harem series that debuted in the Spring season of this year. It's your typical harem, characters get set up in awkward predicaments, misunderstandings happen, humor ensues. While it serves its purpose, its by far nothing new or exhilarating. Face it, we watch this genre for one thing: to turn our brains off and cheer for our favorite ship.
Art-
As a whole the art won't blow you away. The girls look cute and adorable, Nariyuki still looks your run of the mill MC,…

Wow, least than 3 months of the release of the first season, here we go again.
And I’m going to be honest, I really liked the first season, I thought that the development of the story and the genre was great, the characters were funny and entertaining, the ridiculous scenes did not felt forced or annoying they felt fresh and comic, but the best part is my opinion were the production and the animation. And those are elements that I never touched when I watched and reviewed an anime. But in this case they connect perfectly with the funny and romantic moments. Also, even I was not a fan of the opening, the background music in every single episode was perfect, because fit in the comic animation and the ridiculous situations so well. The voices were great too, the seiyus add more personality to…

I don't even know how to express my disappointment.
Don't get me wrong,i was enjoying it during both seasons.
More over i'm still really fond of second season's opening track,every time the new episode came out,i started dancing to this song.
Every time my soul has been successfully restored before OP track managed to end.
I don't consider the original anime ending as something terrible,cause it didn't make a point,it just dropped a hint to us,which i didn't took really seriously.
The worst thing is they could end it much better.More over they already had started preparation to ''exact'' ending before(i mean furuhashi + yuiga episodes).Damn,these were the best episodes in the whole series for me.
I expected way more better from Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai!'s last episode,it could b…

Ok so BokuBen season 2 has ended and it did have a clean ending.
So:
Story:
Pros: It still has the same plot about the guy who was forced into tutoring 4 girls , 3 of them were strong in a few subjects , but weak in other and in return he gets good recommendation to a top university, and there was that good ending where it strongly suggest that it was Uruka who'll end up with Nariyuki.
Cons: Though it still uses the same plot from the 1st season, there were just some harem based anime such as this that should've have not given a 2nd season, cu'z thought it has that comedy genre, the genre itself was annoyingly stupid.
Verdict: 5 over 10.
Art:
Pros: The same character illustration, fanservices and eyecandies, as usual.
Cons: Don't expect any good panty flashes and nipples services,…

Oh God, where to start.
Well, as a reader of the manga I can say that up till after the credits of the last episode of the season, I can say that other than a couple important missing chapters that developed a few of the characters a bit more that I expected would be addressed in season 3, so I'd say it was an alright adaptation.
But oh God, here comes the dreaded "We're not making another season, so let's just make the ending ourselves" bull-crap, but the problem is that the manga isn't finished yet and that like half the series will most certainly not be adapted for another season, and very important characters will not have their arcs for anime only viewers.
I would have given this a 6 or 7 in character, story and enjoyment if they left on a cliffhanger and knowing a third season wou…

What about another HAREM to end the year?
·Story: 5/10
Bokutachi has all the facts that exist in the harem/teenager genre. It has cute girls with different personalities, a mc that is gentle with them and the typical settings of the school and slice of life genre.
Not being original, but not being bad is how I would define the plot of this anime. You would not find anything apart from the mythical school trips, school festivals and students that study together to pass the exams.
·Art: 6/10
Being an harem just established my expectations for its art pretty low, and yeah, it was as I expected to be.
The general art scenes are pretty fair and I think that both companies Arvo and Silver did a pretty good job, as they are pretty new (From what I've seen on MAL).
Obviously, the ecchi sc…

Before I begin I want to say this. Just go read the manga. The anime was good up until the ending of the last episode. They completely skipped many important stories from the festival up until where the manga is currently (Chapter 140). Even though I love this anime, I don't want others to watch this and see the terrible ending and thinking that's it. Just go and start the manga from the beginning. It is an amazing read. The rest of the season episodes 1-12 were all fine. But the ending of episode 13 just kills it. If you want to get a good experience then when you are watching episode 13 you can stop watching after a certain moment. You'll know it when it happens.

It's spinning it's wheels...Arc Fatigue as you will...for half the runtime anyways
LA liked the first season of Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai where it shaked up some sense of the harem in which it removed the first girls wins scenario but it could go somewhere great, but where Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai! has something going, Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai! just kept going and going, thankfully this formula stopped once Uruka's episode starts.
LA only found out that Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai! was spinning it's wheels since the third episode, like yes the harem or a harem member getting some time with Nariyuki and everything is nice especially in giving us equal screentime to the harem of 5 but besides the good equal screentime to the harem to Nariyuki, nothing much happens b…

Bokuben season 2 succeeds in building upon the foundations laid by season 1 very well. To save you time, if you liked Bokuben from the start, you will love season 2. If you didn't, you probably won't like this either.
Bokuben is really simple in its premise and doesn't try to be something that it's not. It is a Harem Rom-Com. It's not trying to be really profound or thought provoking, it's meant to be an Otaku self escapism mechanism. Simple. However, that doesn't mean there's no story to be found here, and that's where in my opinion, season 2 makes significant improvements over the first season.
Season 1 of Bokuben was more of a flavour of the week type of excursion with Nairyuki being shipped with one of the girls each week with little in the way of actual overarching plot development…

We Never Learn: BokuBen is undoubtedly one of the trashiest school rom-com harem shows of recent years, but love it or hate it, it's unexpectedly become one of the best shows that we've come to know of this year, having 2 full seasons within the span of 9 months, and knowing the author Taishi Tsutsui, his hard work have definitely paid off knowing that people are always in for the usual clickbait tropes and cliches that the harem genre is all but infamously known for, so much that even series like Negi Haruba's Gotoubun no Hanayome (which aired earlier in Winter and Season 2 next Winter) are endeared in the highest regard (the anime adaptations are OK, but the respective mangas still are infinitely better).
If you're a fan of the typical high school rom-com genre, this should come as no s…
