Jókai apáto no júga na ničidžó

I had initially been expecting another Natsume rip-off. However, the honest truth is that this is first and foremost a slice of life anime series, and it also includes a supernatural element. In other words, as in Dawe’s review, “it is a slice of life with the supernatural.” I mean, there is an emphasis on the other side and solving supernatural problems, even though it takes a back seat to ordinary life. That includes studying, friendships, and all the relatively everyday things that a slice of life anime series is made of. Well, this is rather a shame because instead of an interesting and profound narrative full of supernatural stuff, we just have an ordinary narrative full of everyday worries and general life wisdom with a bit of that supernatural stuff. After saying that, if, in the end, there was no supernatural element, this would have still been a pretty average slice-of-life anime series. 6/10. (27/12/2017)
