I want to start this review stating I have only seen the first 5 episodes, half of 6 and a third of seven.

Overall Kokoro Connect is a masterpiece which I recommend to everyone! The characters are at first glance normal but reveal themselves to be much more than that. The art is good though fairly regular and the sound, with a few exceptions (like kokoro no kara) is also nothing special. The phenomena create characters that are completely stripped from their superficial layer and show what kind of people they really are. The writers have taken something as overused as body switching and used it to create a masterpiece. Absolutely not! This anime is fun and interesting from episode 1 to the final episode! You don't need to sit through the first couple of episodes before you finaly get to the good part. None of the episodes are boring or hard to get through.

Unfortunately I got some interesting anime to watch right now, but the moment I don't, I'm going to rewatch this one.

And at then end of this anime, you will definately give them a 10 out of 10. The characters develop so well, that eventually, you WILL bond with them. Inaba is bossy, cold and strong, Taichi is a goody two-shoes, Nagase is always cheery, Aoki is laid-back and Yui loves karate and cute things.īut through all these phenomena all these things will change. All characters have their own certain traits. If you would just watch the first couple of episodes of Kokoro Connect, you wouldn't give the characters 10 out of 10. Look it up, it's called -> Kokoro no kara The first ending theme of Kokoro Connect however is my favorite ending theme of all time. I don't think a different style would suit Kokoro Connect, so to me, they made a good choice just sticking to regular art. Don't get me wrong, it's pretty normal for an anime, but that's why I like it so much. Won't spoil anything for you, the other phenomena are even better than the first one, revealing more about the characters, peeling the superficial layer off these kids, showing their true selfs and their desires and dreams.īecause the story is so well written, even though it starts out with, in my opinion, such a boring plot as body switching, it definately desirves a 10 out of 10. It is because of this great story telling that the overused idea of switching bodies doesn't seem lame but exciting. The writers take something as switching bodies, what has been done over and over by other movies and turn it into something unbelievably good! The way the characters develop throughout the show is outstanding: when you think you know them well enough, another phenomenon occurs which changes your view on them completely. Kokoro Connect is one of my personal favorites. I recommend Kokoro Connect to everyone who loves the slice of life and romance genre
