DESCRIPTION

On his way to school Junichi Nagase saves a girl from danger. Later due to a misunderstanding he kissed her. Shocked and disgusted, and without understanding what just happened or why, she screams at him and tells him to "just die!" As it turns out, the girl, Yuuhi Katagiri, is a new transfer student and, much to the surprise of Junichi and his younger sister Minato, their father arranged for Yuuhi to be Junichi's future wife! Of course, getting married to "that perverted idiot" is the absolute last thing Yuuhi wants! Junichi's crazy school life with his tsundere bride-apparent has begun!

50/100
shit review of an avenge series
this warning review may contain spoilers.

First impressions, so another anime based off a hentai game. I really need to watch something different I guess?

Story, 5/10

ladies and gentlemen of all ages I welcome you to generic rom-com anime number nine thousand five hundred twenty two.

The story starts out with this fish girl named yuuhi who is saved by are main character junichi from a group of teenage thugs.
Later on he finds out this girl who he hand saved had transferred into his school and that this girl is actually his bride to be who will be living with him,
But the twist is they don't really like one each other and both of them aren't a big fan of getting married by force.

So I thought was an interesting idea especially because it's coming from a generic visual novel anime adaptation,
Which gave it something a bit more interesting I guess.
Because the idea of people who hate each over and slowly become kind of close over time kind of interesting to me.
Which it dose an ok job presenting it.
Even though the in between bits kind of the usual shit.

I also liked the little sub plot with the main character trying to come to terms with what life could offer him instead of living in the past.

Those when I look back on it where quite nice touches.

But those kinda get retconed in a way ,
Because they decided to have this love triangle going on in the background involving Junechi his sister and yuuhi.
Which was handled in the most cliché way possible.
While watching this I am thinking to myself. Really show your really going to do this why?
Because you had something good going here and you decide to throw it off a cliff.
It doesn't completely bother me that much because at the end of the day the story could only go so far being what it is.
But they could have done something a little different.
Which would have been nice.

Characters, 5/10

The main character is pretty much a generic protagonist with the only thing interesting about him was being this geno killer thing.

The other characters were pretty one note nothing really special about them.
There basic cardboard cutouts pretty much.

Art, 5/10

The animtion for the most part was all right nothing good nor bad about it.

The art style is a bit bright and colorful for my taste.

the character designs also looked alright.
It's just usual shit.

Sound, 6/10
It had an ok op. The ost was pretty average by rom-con standards.

Because nothing really took my interest.

Enjoyment, 5/10

When it comes to enjoyment about this show I really don't have much to say. It was pretty generic.
But one thing I did enjoy about it is that it had some promise and it had some good parts about it.

Overall, 5/10
So overall akaneiro ni somaru saka is pretty much a standard fare when it comes to rom-com thing. It did try to be better but instead of trying something new. It went the cliche way. So this show is pretty forgeable.
But it's an ok time passer I guess if you like Rom-com I guess.

But if you not a big fan of that shit probably go somewhere else.
