Čio-čan no cúgakuro

This is a charming show that is pleasant humorous, is a bit over-the-top, has various extravagances, and delivers exactly what I was hoping for. This show is more restrained and chilled out than that other show about school madness released at the same time (Asobi Asobase), yet I still found it endearing, occasionally deranged, often amusing, and is quite original... Plus it has lots of interesting characters, and I am only slightly put out that Chio and Andou did not get more screen time because I enjoyed their supposedly romantic subplot very much. This anime series is just perfect for the summer because it is just (like Grand Blue) very refreshing in its own way. 8/10. (2018.09.21)
