Tsurezure Children (Thoughts)

If you haven’t seen this anime be advised that **SPOILERS** will be below.

Ships

(because this anime is all about couples)

Takase and Kanda

I loved these two, I found their relationship to be really relatable to me. The confession was completely hilarious. I was surprised that Takase was as calm as he was considering this was his crush I would have been a complete mess, he was very patient with Kanda who was having a real hard time confessing. My favourite part of the confession was when Kanda was leaving and yelled to Takase that “I’ll tell you I like you tomorrow” lol seriously girl you just confessed in the most awkward emotionless way. Nothing was cleared up through the anime between these two they end up as just friends while each still longing to be more in the end. Need a season 2
for these two.

 

Akagi and Kaji

My least favourite of the couples. I didn’t like their relationship. I found that Akagi is quite pushy and reminded me of a very possessive boyfriend, the way he talked and convinced Kaji to do things so easily rubbed me the wrong way.

 

Sugawara and Takano

My favourite couple!! I love how Sugawara is completely in love with Takano but Takano is completely unaware of how he feels, really she doesn’t understand relationships, love or anything to do with romance or human relations in general. When Sugawara confesses she says thank you and assumes he’s just trying to cheer her up, such an oblivious girl. Their relationship is full of many misunderstandings and miscommunications because of how little Takano understands human interactions because she really was just a loner who kept to herself. As the anime goes on she starts to understand her occurring feelings for Sugawara and starts to even make friends and at the end in her own way kinda confesses. This couples relationship is basically the growth of Takano while Sugawara waits in the wings until she is ready what a sweety so patient! It needs a season 2 so these two can officially confess and be together!!

 

Gouda and Kamine

This couple is a typical romance, the confession followed by dating and the awkwardness of what you think your partner wants from you. I didn’t like how standoffish Gouda was after they just started dating but understandably it was because he really wasn’t confident about being in a relationship.

 

Minagawa and Furuya

Cute little relationship, poor Furuya can never tell if Minagawa is being serious or joking with him. I think she honestly does really like him and deep down he really likes her too. I see their relationship progressing well if we get a season 2, they may just have to watch out for Furuya’s sister.

 

Kana and Chiaki

I like these two, I feel like their relationship was the furthest along in the anime, they started off as good friends at the start and got into a relationship even though Chiaki has no idea they are in a relationship at first
because he thought it was a comedy skit they were doing when Kana confessed. I felt so bad for Kana all that courage to confess and thinking they were dating all along but weren’t 😭.

But eventually Chiaki confesses and wants them to go out for real yay! Chiaki definitely has to grow up more than Kana did for sure, he always assumed that they needed to be doing a skit throughout their relationship instead of just being themselves. I felt bad but understood how they felt when they thought they had to compete against other couples, they needed to learn that all couples are not the same and that they need to go at their own pace and quit worrying about what other couples were doing and concentrated on them.

When they broke up for a bit, and he kept apologizing to her and she ended up dropping her phone in the bath when he had just texted her, I was laughing so hard. Kana was bawling because she couldn’t text him back, I’m thinking girl are you serious just go to his house and talk to him, I mean they have known each other a long time she should know where his house is. I swear in this day and age we rely to much on our phones and technology.

 

Final thoughts

All in all even though this anime was only 12 episodes long and only 12 min per episode it did a pretty good job of following this many relationships. I did love how relatable this was, I remember back in highschool with dating and relationships how every relationship was different and went at its own pace and this anime shows that very well. I really think that it does need a second season though, some of the couples such as Takase and Kanda and Sugawara and Takano need some closure. I would watch a second season of this anime.
