Hi! Good day, people. How is life? It has become harsher in recent times as I'm holding more and more responsibilities. Anyway, I hope that my increasingly burdensome life will be something that I can handle.
SPOILER ALERT! This post is very likely to contain spoilers for this anime. So...if you are planning to watch the anime without any spoilers, you can either continue to read this post or move on and watch the anime.
P.S. If you want to be spoiled, well, go ahead and read it. You HAD been warned. Don't blame me for being spoiled if you INSIST on continuing to read this post.
Introduction
Slow Loop the anime
Slow Loop (in Japanese, スローループ)...this anime is adapted from a manga of the same name by Maiko Uchino. It is serialized in Houbunsha's seinen manga magazine, Manga Time Kirara Forward since September 2018. The anime television series adaptation is done by Connect and was aired from January to March 2022. There's nothing much I could say. Moving on...
The manga cover...
Plot
Hiyori chilling out...
Hiyori meeting Koharu
The story starts off with a girl name Minagi Hiyori who loves fishing. While she was fishing, she met a girl named Minagi Koharu who went over to jump into the sea in a school swimsuit. Hiyori stopped her by using her fishing rod. That's how they get to know each other. What a weird way to get to know each other for the first time.
Ah...hi, I guess?
Later, they found out their single parents got married to each other and they become siblings. Oh...that reminds me of a certain anime that I couldn't bear to watch...AHEM! Anyway, it turns out that Hiyori doesn't have a father as he died three years prior to the events of the series. Why did he die? Well, not mentioned at all other than it is hinted that he stayed in the hospital. As for Koharu, her biological mother and brother died in an accident when she was young. Sad.
Ah. Koi snapped.
This fella...
AHEM! Anyway, Hiyori's mother got married to Koharu's father, making Hiyori and Koharu stepsiblings. From then onwards, the story surrounding the two girls, Hiyori and Koharu and their fishing journey begin! Before we go, I need to talk about an interesting female character, Koi. Her father almost names her after the koi fish (鯉) but her mother changed it to the kanji which means love (恋). She is Hiyori's childhood friend. Koi's father runs a fishing supplies store and has a really serious obsession with fishing until the point where he only arrives at the hospital after Koi's birth. What the fuck...AHEM! Time to move on.
That's so sweet...
Anime Rating
Story (Rating: 9/10)
The story is pretty chill and mostly focused on Hiyori and Koharu's relationship and fishing. Cute, really cute. The story pacing and flow are really good for a nice, slow and cute anime.
That moment...
Art and Animation (Rating: 8/10)
The characters and their expression are pretty well-drawn and consistent. The art of the anime is really good too. Nothing much to complain about, really.
Great scene...
Sound and Music (Rating: 9/10)
Nice, chill and cute theme songs and also good background music. What more could I say? Good stuff.
The opening sequence
Characters (Rating: 10/10)
Cute girls? OH YEAH!!!!!!! AHEM! Also, the background of the characters is not too heavy for a "cute girls doing cute things" anime. The growth of the relationship between Hiyori and Koharu is really nice to watch but the rekindling of Koi and Hiyori's relationship journey is also nice to watch as they break the ice regarding the past about Hiyori's dad passing. It is pretty unique, I think. There are also other different relationships in the anime but not prominent as the relationship of the three main characters, Koi, Koharu and Hiyori.
Sweet times together...
Enjoyment (Rating: 10/10)
Nice, cute and really soothing. What more could I ask about this anime? Nothing more. I like it.
The girls enjoying their time together...
Overall Rating: 9.2 (9)/10

Hi, people! It's time to find the next brightest STAR...from anime. Anyway, it's been a while since I have talked about the Aikatsu series. I was really busy to get myself out of my study life, which I've stuck for a little longer (or maybe too long) than what I wanted. So, I need my focus less on my blog and the thing I like to do for quite a while. SORRY! Is that the same reason again?! Anyway, a cute expression from Ako.

Oh yeah, I will mention the other two movies that will come together(sort of). I don't want this post to be some ranting blog post like many people did. BUT, BUT, BUT I want to RANT about ALL OF THE HATE that is placed on OOZORA AKARI. Working hard to produce something... BTW, I'm currently preparing for a few anime reviews, maybe a HUGE amount of them. Perhaps all of the anime I'm currently watching and currently still airing or some of them. OR some of the anime that had finished airing and I'd watched. Who knows? OK. So, shall we continue? Aikatsu!!! WARNING:- SPOILER ALERT!!!
