Synopsis — from MyAnimeList
Futarigurashi follows an aspiring erotic mangaka named Kenji Aoyama. In order to pay rent his friend's younger brother, Hikari Satou, offers to become his roommate. However it turns out that "he" in almost every way is a girl! The series revolves around Kenji and Hikari getting involved with various women.
Audience Consensus
Audience reception for Futarigurashi appears to be largely negative, with critics pointing to extremely poor animation and repetitive, uninspired comedic elements. While the presence of a continuous plot is noted as a minor positive, it doesn't redeem the series for most viewers. The show is considered a product of its time, and not in a good way.
Strengths
- Has a continuous plot, unlike similar series.
- The attempts at comedy, while not always successful, are present throughout.
Weaknesses
- Animation quality is described as "impressively bad".
- Relies heavily on predictable comedy clichés and "otokonoko" teasing.
- Pacing issues with repetitive "should I tap it? but it's a dude" scenarios.
- Lacks the charm and cuteness of comparable series like Stop!! Hibari-kun.
