The story of Kokoro Connect (KC) revolves around a supernatural conceit that drives the drama of the story. For what it is supposed to be, Kokoro Connect is almost perfect. Aside from Toradora (the show that made me pay attention to slice of life shows) i cannot think of too many shows that do such a great job of showcasing compelling drama, laughs, and heart warming romance. I try to watch each show objectively recognizing how it is supposed to fulfill its role in its particular genre. I am relatively new to Anime, and (despite my actual list) my tastes range from the classic DBZ (im old) to my new favorite Spice and Wolf (season 3 please!). Kokoro Connect is a perfect example of this concept. However, this does not mean that certain shows are objectively good or bad, it sometimes means that a show is an excellent version of whatever style or genre it is supposed to be. In the world of anime and manga this leads many to disregard shows that simply don't fit the criteria of what we find entertaining. With the massive rise in access to entertainment and media/pop culture, we have gotten to the point where our options on what to watch are so stratified that we have the privilege of not liking something because its not our particular taste. The anime uses locations in Yokohama as reference, with cooperation from the Yokohama Film Commission and the Yokohama Gakuen high school.ĭisclaimer- this review takes into account the 4 episode 'sequel' to the show BackgroundThe cast from the Kokoro Connect drama CD reprised their roles in the anime.
