    this show is so fire

    I don't know why this is not 10 stars its so fire the only problem is that there's a tiny tiny bit of fan service. I have a crush on the blond one. I was skeptical at first but its fire. There's a park i really wanna go to in this show. I have the google earth thing bookmarked on my computer. Summary this show is peak fiction.

    A comfort romance pick!

    (14+) It's hard to pinpoint why this series was so enjoyable, but if you wanted a "comfort" comedy/romance this could be a contender. Yes, multiple girls end up liking the male protagonist, but it is very clear that he has his heart set on only one. What's even better is that she is extremely likeable, and you'll be rooting for her the entire time. Also, there is no stupid competition that develops among the girls, they all respect and like each other, too! The ending was great, also! Highly recommended!

    Hokkaido Gals Are Super Superficial!

    Going into this anime, I honestly thought it was gonna be peak. The premise is really amazing-we have this guy who's used to city life and suddenly ends up in this almost hillbilly town in the middle of winter. It had me hooked... until, hmm, the first 10 minutes of episode 1.

    The main character is just like every other; he reacts to stuff when he has to, and that's about it. The girls carry the show completely, and they're good-especially Sayuri. She's very well written and genuinely enjoyable to watch.

    That being said, it doesn't excuse the anime as a whole. The pacing is bad. It really feels like not much happens until the very end, when all of a sudden she's going away and he has to man up and go after her-but it doesn't really work out, and she goes away anyway. Worst yet, we just get a time skip to her coming back? Like... you could've done so much with the time she was gone. Make the other two girls develop their relationship with Tsubasa more, but instead you just skip to when she comes back??? Talk about wasted potential.

    Not my cup of tea, but if you like cute girls, give this one a try.

    Gals & Giggles: Hokkaido's Cutest Come to Town!

    With a blonde gyaru and a quirky accent, this character seemed like a surefire hit. Guess not! What a missed opportunity.

    In other words, this anime is incredibly repetitive. Every episode follows the exact same formula: a guy meets a flashy girl, they grab a bite, and then the guy ends up flustered. It's like watching the same scene on repeat. If you ever felt like slice-of-life anime relies on clichés, this show cranks that feeling up to eleven - and all within a super predictable format.

    This anime is boring, even for someone like me who enjoys silly jokes. It offers nothing: no interesting ideas, not heartwarming enough, not the cute style I like, and forget about anything spicy. It doesn't even deliver the cozy vibes a slice-of-life should! The only saving grace is a single scene with a character's mom. The rest is just repetitive and irritating.

    Not good only ok

    A very average comedy about these 3 girls and 1 boy with the personality that we have seen thousands of times in other sometimes better shows and sometimes worst, there is nothing special here, the animation and the cold in Hokkaido of course its beautiful but overall these 3 Fuyuki, Sayuri and Natsukawa are just annoying af, and the boy who I don't remember the name it's just a boring protagonist made so virgens can relate

    The first 6 episodes are better than the other half because in those 6 first episodes you are not yet tired of these bad written characters ok and that's not a good thing, very bland anime 6/10.
