Anime: Tomo-chan is a Girl!
I was ecstatic to find out that one of my favorite shojo manga was getting animated. I had read this manga during the pandemic and never thought it'd be animated until this year. I watched the first episode yesterday and was pleased with the animation and how much plot they covered in the first episode. It makes sense since the manga chapters were really short. I also love the opening song. I love how cute it is and how they depict their romance as a shounen fight because it really reflects their personality and relationship dynamic. It's basically about this tomboy named Tomo who is in love with her childhood friend, Jun, but he doesn't treat her like a girl even though her body and priorities are changing. This is basically a slow burn, friends-lovers story with lots of comedic relief and characters with strong personalities.
For this anime, it's a lot of casual speech and masculine particles and phrases used between Jun and Tomo so I didn't recognize too many familiar Japanese words from them. However, one of the side characters, Misuzu, uses a lot of polite speech so I recognized alot of the words and phrases she used like 話します、待って下さい、帰りたいです.
