The irony of pretending love "Nisekoi" is a very bright and interesting comedy with a lot of romance. I've been fascinated by her since the first episode, which is a very rare phenomenon in anime. Throughout the series, I have never been bored. It’s definitely one of the best romantic comedies I’ve ever seen.
The idea itself is quite banal, and does not particularly stand out from the general mass (although there is something unique in it). Raku Ichijo (heir to the yakuza) and Chitoge Kirisaki (daughter of a mafia boss) are forced to play lovers, because the relationship between their families depends on this. In fact, it sounds like a pretext, because the leaders of both groups are longtime friends who proposed to play the whole show. Come on, let's not talk about it. The problem is that Raku and Chitoge just can not tolerate each other from the very first minutes of acquaintance. Moreover, Cancer already has a girlfriend that he likes (and she likes him too). In general, a real show begins, which gradually turns into everyday life. Heroes get into different situations, get to know each other better, and just have fun with their days. But who knew they had seen each other 10 years ago and exchanged promises? In addition, there are still a few restless people who do not want to stay on the sidelines. More and more beautiful girls are gathering around Cancer.
Heroes are gorgeous! All! That's it! Again, a rare case when all the characters come out so successfully that among them there is not a single superfluous, or undesirable to the viewer. There are not many of them here, but enough to brighten up all twenty episodes of this anime. I liked Chitoge the most. She is the source of all the positives in the series. The only thing I didn’t like about them (it also goes to the minus of the entire anime) is that the characters are often dumb. Seriously, they're so embarrassed, shy, afraid it's like kindergarten. If there were fewer such moments, I would not even say a word, but there are many of them here.
Confusion is enough, but everything is perceived easily. There are so many funny things that have made me laugh. Romance is enough, but despite its importance (I would even say that it is built on it), it is only on the average level. So you can not wait for strong love. Separately, I want to note the style of drawing. Very interesting move, when constantly alternate different styles. The main drawing is simple, but beautiful and bright. It is often replaced by another (in comic scenes, or romantic). At first, it's a little scary, but then you get used to it, and you even notice that it's right here. This move gives variety, and even more highlights this anime, as if saturating it. I love it! The soundtrack didn't blow either. There is nothing to highlight in it, but it fully corresponds to what we see in the picture, which most complements it. I liked the music from the openings and endings.
The plot is not brought to a conclusion (although, so everything is clear). You will either have to read the manga or wait for the sequel. Other than that, I was very pleased with the viewing. A fun and easy anime that gives only positive impressions. I advise all fans of this genre. You will not be disappointed!
