and a girl were given to the wrong families only to find themselves getting married to one another because of their parents. If you're looking at the synopsis, expecting something clever and revolutionary, then I would continue digging and trying to find that special romcom. "A Couple of Cuckcoos" so far hasn't done anything too bad, but still remains to be nothing special. Kakkou no Iinazuke // A Couple of Cuckcoos -Įvery so often, a romcom catches my eye once in a while, even if I never enjoy them, I'll watch them until their bitter end. This review doesn't contain any spoilers for the first three episodes or the manga. Only three episodes have been released by the time this review is submitted. There's a lot better out there like the aforementioned Nisekoi. Going off from what is told of audience perception there though, it is probably safe to assume that this won't be something worth your while. This doesn't seem to be received well on the manga side, but that's a different thing altogether. If it wasn't already obvious, I don't have a lot to say. The studio probably didn't want to put in the effort, can't really blame them. You should at least take in the fact that it looks pretty damn strange at times like someone morphing or something, not My Sis My Writer bad but it comes on every odd occasion in small detail. I suppose I can praise this for looking nice, but that doesn't seem to be on anyone's radar in examing anime or choosing which to go for. Perhaps she was just thinking of new content for her new content house (shoutout to whatever the hell that is) or something. Maybe it's a reflection of how dumb influencers are, but that might be too cynical. That reminds me, this Erika girl thought it was funny to sit somewhere wild upon entering Nagi's place because she is rich and doesn't know basic common sense. It took itself too seriously whilst also forgetting simple things to cover first.
The only key difference is the backstory which seems new from what I've seen, but everything surrounding these guys after is so banal and dull. He's also the same as everyone else that's come before him in terms of protagonists. Why? Idk, maybe he forgor to change settings his character settings, or maybe he The clever guy here managed to get checkmated by some TikTok influencer in the very first 10 mins or so. I just don't believe this anime will reach any kind of high-quality writing as it goes on, it's just a prolonged romance between two characters who are pretty much going to fall for each other at the end of it all (would be wild if that doesn't happen tho ngl).Ĭharacters aren't even charismatic or true to themselves. There's Nisekoi, and then there's Nisekoi taken too far, otherwise known as Kakkou no Iinazuke.
