Okay, I'll be honest, I'm almost impressed. Some of this anime made me like "That's cute!". But some are just like "Why couldn't you add that?". In short, This anime wasn't perfect.
Story: A Solid 7 Plot is simple, a girl teases a boy she likes, and the boy always fails to get back on her teasing. But it much wholesome to the point where it made you smiled all the time. The premise of this anime is just to make you smile, and it did. But i just can't shake my head because the plot is good, it lacks PLOT TWIST. In my own perspective every story needs a plot twist, even slice of life. It made good use of the plot to play with your emotions and feelings. In this anime case, THERE'S NONE. Just a wholesome, boring same plot about the two characters teasing, that's all. Don't expect more. But at least there's a character development about becoming close to each other. Overall, I wish there was a plot twist and more than just teasing, but it's very funny and cute.
Art: A Questionable 7 I don't really like the art, it's just kinda plain. Most of it just a simple art, no beautiful light effect, no real shadowing, no naturalism, and no complex characters. Although some of it looks good. But the reason that is questionable is because....i kinda liked it? It's very simple and clean looking. But i just wish that it made more graphics and art style like latest animes.
Sound and Music: A Perfect 10. Jeez...like...this anime is filled with one of the most BEAUTIFUL music that is ever made. The opening song is on point, Yuiko Oohara definitely done a very good job on that. The ending songs by Rie Takahashi? Gorgeous. These EQ sounds very complex and fantastic, like the cellos or guitars. Pianos and Drums, and the other symphonic instruments, and the angelic songs of these two people, has made one of the most beautiful songs ever. The OST? Very relaxing. It fits so well with the anime and i will shake my head to think that this has one of the most beautiful and relaxing music EVER.
Character: A solid 8. There are two characters and a some side character.
Nishikata: The main protagonist that always lost to his rival, Takagi. He often embarrassed and flushed right after he got teased by Takagi. he seemed very oblivious to like Takagi. So about Nishikata, i just thought that he could be better. He's a good character who seems to care about Takagi and his family and friends. But his idiotic and shyness made him seems an unlikable character. But i do like his motivational to do push up every time Takagi teases him, that's good. So overall i will give Nishikata a solid 8.
Takagi: Takagi is the female lead who just teases Nishikata all the time and secretly loves him to bits. She uses her brain power to read Nishikata's mind and uses it to backfire him every. single. time. The real reason that i like Nishikata better it's because she's more of a drag than a character. She always tease Nishikata multiple times a day, and that could made him insane, however seems that his mental is REALLY powerful. And Takagi is coward, she uses all of her teasing to give an affection to Nishikata. Why can't she just admit and confessed to him immediately? She's also sometimes can be mean to Nishikata, like forcing him to buy a juice. But not all of them is negative! She's extremely adorable, like REALLY ADORABLE. Her voice by Rie made her having such a cute voice and probably....quite angelic. She's also really nice to Nishikata sometimes, and cares him very very deeply. But overall, i just think Takagi is an OK character. Solid 7.
The side Characters: A solid 7. Mina, Yukari, Sanae is just there for funny goofs and friendship times. Takao, Kimura, and the others were just there to help the main Characters to became each other or something like that. But overall i just think that it didn't need characters like this, but at least it made the story more lively. A solid 7.
Overall Characters: It could be better. If it was Takagi became less confident and Nishikata smarter and not easily flushed, it will made the story more balanced.
Enjoyment: A Good 9. Yes. I enjoy this anime. It made you really happy and think about the world in a very different way. This anime is very recommended for all that's having anxiety, depression, or PTSD. It made you to think that the world is not always meant to turn against you, you will always have each other to love, live, and laugh. This anime will deliver a happy and fuzzy feelings about to became much better person and a new level of wholesomeness. It made you happy, and what's even better that the message this anime gives is very implied with the story itself. A Good 9.
And that brings me to 5 annoying things about this anime!
1: You like all the songs and want a physical album? Or the Takagi merch that you dreamed? Well guess what? It's only available in japan, darn it.
2: The new season takes ages to develop, One and a half year! So all you gotta do...is wait.
3: There is a Takagi dating simulator app that's available on App store and google play, but yet again IT'S ONLY AVAILABLE IN JAPAN! It's like they want you to be part of the Japanese people!
4: The first season dub, they didn't add any honorifics to the character, which made it more natural to every people, and i do like it! But For some reason the Season 2 dub added the honorifics like Takagi-san, or Nishikata-kun. That's....very Unintentional.
5: Takagi-san developers made a Takagi VR game, sadly it sucked.
Don't worry, there's a few cool things to make all of this up. Here's five.
1: The writer took inspiration from the real Japan world and adapt it on the anime, That's cool! It's like...Takagi is from the real world!
2: Even i didn't like the honorifics, i just thought that the new voice actor is much better than the first one.
3: You want Nishikata to tease Takagi? Well then, head over to "LEGOF"s Channel and watch as Yuuki Kaji (Nishikata's VA) destroys Rie Takahashi! (Takagi's VA). There's also some really cool games that they're playing over there. Go watch it!
4: You like the three characters? Well there's a full manga only about the story of Mina, Yukari, and Sanae.
5: Do you want to see the two character fate 10 years later? Just go ahead and watch the "Moto" Manga. It is as wholesome as the main series.
So what's my final verdict on "Teasing Master Takagi-san?"
Should you....Avoid it?
Should you....Consider watching it?
Should you....Shortlisted it?
Or...just go right ahead and watch it?
Overall: Well....if you like a slice of life anime and romance anime that is pretty darn wholesome filled with cute characters, or just simply watching it because you had a depression and mental issues? GO RIGHT AHEAD AND WATCH IT! It's fantastic anime for you.
However if you expected this anime to be amazing, filled with good story and animations, and plot twist? Well....SHORTLIST IT! Right now...maybe not right now, but soon enough...they will improve..hopefully...and it's a good anime for all of you!
So Teasing Master Takagi-san was a really good anime. I enjoyed my time to watch this anime and i just can't stand the fact this anime is one of my favourites. But yet again, it's not perfect and the story could be a little bit bette, and perhaps the characters. But it is funny, cute and very wholesome.
So? What's the score from me?
A Very Good 8. It almost impressed me!
