Kaguya-Sama: Love is War is a comedy anime which is quite popular in the anime community. This anime is loved by us for its quirky and wholesome comedic scenes which never cease to amaze us.
Today, I’ll review some basic aspects of this anime and tell you exactly what makes it one of the best comedy anime of all time. Before we get started, let us take a look at the plot of this anime.
The Plot
The plot of this anime follows the story of two main characters, Miyuki Shirogane and Kaguya Shinomiya. Miyuki and Kaguya are the student body’s top representatives. Miyuki is a top-student who is respected by everyone around him for his work ethic and tough personality, and he is the student council president. Kaguya belongs to the wealthy Shinomiya family, and she excels at almost everything she does. She is the vice president of the student council and aids Miyuki.
They go together perfectly, and both of them are seen as the perfect couple by their entire school. Both of them have even developed actual feelings for each other, but they are not willing to admit it. They think of love as a war in which the first one who confesses loses. With their prides at stake, Kaguya and Miyuki are eagerly trying to make the other person confess.
The plot of this anime seems kind of generic at first glance, but it is actually the major selling point of this anime. Kaguya Sama: Love is War is solely based around the war of confession of these two valiant soldiers, but it never gets repetitive. This slice of life anime gives us something new in every episode and never bores us.
Let us take a look at the other aspects of this show which make it a masterpiece!
Animation
Kaguya Sama: Love is War has a very cute style of animation which seems quirky and wholesome. Usually, rom-coms have a very basic style of animation which can seem a little repetitive but Kaguya Sama: Love is War gives us something new and interesting. The transitions of the animation are also very fluid.
Voice Acting
One of the strongest aspects of this show is its voice-acting. The voice actors have done a brilliant job of portraying each character for what they are. The cute and cuddly voice of Fujiwara will make you absolutely fall for her.
Characters
Now, let us talk about the strongest aspect of this anime. The characters in this anime are all very cute and realistic. They have diverse personalities as they don’t just stick to a single trait. Let us take a look at their individual personalities:
Miyuki Shirogane
This man has the most stern and devoted personality! He only thinks about working hard and achieving something big in life. Just the kind of attitude that one would expect from the president of the student council.
Kaguya Shinomiya
Kaguya is a rich girl, but she isn’t spoiled at all. This girl works very hard in life and wants to achieve something big in the future. She is like the female version of Miyuki and is the vice-president of the student council.
Chika Fujiwara
Chika is the most adorable character in the whole anime world! This girl is even more popular than the main characters themselves because of her cute and wholesome personality.
Yuu Ishigami
Yuu Ishigami is a gloomy boy who is a complete nerd and doesn’t really have many friends. This poor guy just gets bashed around in the student council.
Final Thoughts
Kaguya Sama: Love is War is a must-watch anime which gives us something new in every episode. The theme of this anime remains the same, but the way every episode plays out is completely new and unexpected. I absolutely recommend this anime to anyone who is looking for something to binge-watch.
