I'm not good at writing long pieces, so this is a short review that's as subjective yet objective as possible.
Puniru wa Kawaii Slime is a comedy anime, so naturally, its storyline isn’t anything remarkable. The lack of focus on the plot makes it suitable for casual watching and passing the time.
What makes this show good in my eyes is the cuteness of the characters and the animation. I really like the colors in the anime compared to the manga. The vibrant but not overly bright colors, combined with the cute art style, work perfectly together. Additionally, the humor in the anime is quite decent, as the adorable characters and lighthearted jokes make the show relaxing to watch.
The only thing I dislike is Puniru's transformation scene. It seemed interesting at first, but having more tha…

This show does something similar to Dekiru Neko wa Kyou mo Yuuutsu in that the main characters are very close to each other, but because one of the main characters is a literal slime, there's not really a romantic pairing.
Yes, this definitely has a lot of rom-com themes, and contains tropes regarding them. Yet, at the same time, Puniru Kawaii Slime is a nice change of pace and fun to watch. Everything about this show carefully crafts a more immature rom-com circling around Puniru. You see this in multiple instances of the show. First of all is the age. Everyone is in middle school! Not high school but middle school. People are young, like 13 year old. Everyone's quite immature still, and characters reflect that. Nanpa's addicted to playing Monsura and other games that you would associate…

Puniru wa Kawaii Slime is a show which initially frustrated me at with its predictable "insecure anime boy" jokes, though as the show progressed I began to genuinely enjoy the show and I have gained an appreciation for it. The humor, while on its surface is pretty predictable and doesn't really push the envelope much, is always quite well executed and was for the most part enjoyable!What really makes this show's humor click form me is the titular slime herself, Puniru as well as her relationship with Kotaro, her creator. Puniru in general is a delightful character and she really carries the show for me! Her cheerful yet abundantly selfish nature is very endearing. She has an air of childlike innocence and naivete which come from her being a slime and nonhuman which comes off as very sweet…

KAWAII BOKU DEEEEES
Puniru is a kawaii slime and only the one who created her can’t see this fact. Kotarou unfortunately plays the role of the old sculpture character that holds the stubborn/annoying character role for no reason, but for to be mean to the nice little girl.
Despite of the rude main male charcter, this anime brought back the old-school anime experience. It is colorful and super cute. Puniru is so carless and cute that you can’t stop to adore her personality and character. The rest of the cast are also holds some nice and interesting characters and their role is entertaining to follow. The animation takes me back to the old days when anime was about being anime and not being a social media sensation. Besides it’s old fashioned art its also references on Sailor Moon by Pun…

Somehow, this cute slime came to life, and somehow, its anime became one of the most entertaining anime of the season, maybe of the entire year.
The anime revolves around the efforts of Puniru, the slime, to get it's creator, middle-schooler Kotarou, to call it cute. Puniru even turned into a cute girl, but Kotarou only seems to have eyes for mascots that appear on TV.
This simple premise in no way limits the range of jokes and unusual situations explored in the anime, which tend to surprise and provoke laughter quite frequently. The secondary characters are each funny in their own way, the direction is on point, and the soundtracks are superb. Also, I have to say that I love Puniru's transformation sequence, which is a must-see in every episode.
Puniru wa Kawaii Slime is definitely a m…
