Review of Nisekoi: False Love

Raku should be a Harem president. He should invade a country and name it "Haremica". I can see it now...300 Million girls living in his "Harem" country and he's the only guy. Oh, how I would love to be him right now. Or better yet, he should be a Harem God and there will be 7 Billion girls around him. The point I'm trying to make in my opener is this show is another one of those protagonists where the girls are mindlessly falling in love with. Story: (5/10) The story is about Raku, a teenager who made a promise 10 years ago toa girl he met. The problem is he doesn't remember this girl. They both promised that they will get married when they reunite. He wears a pendant that the girl gave him and he never let it go.
Now my opinions on the story. At best, it's mediocre. At the first 3 episodes, the show had an interesting idea. To me, at least. But from there on, it just became a typical cliche, romance and harem moments. Not that I'm complaining or anything. I'm probably one of the few people on this earth who isn't bothered by cliche moments or shows with harem protagonists. I mean, I don't love it but I don't hate it either.

[Art/Animation]: (9/10)
At least the show did something right and it's the animation. Yes, the show had a lot of clichè facial expressions but I don't want to focus there. I want to focus on the actual character designs, environment designs and the lighting. Character designs, good. Environment designs, great and the lighting is also great. There is one design that I'm really bothered by and it's the way they design the female characters. Yes, I know, it's fan service but it's ridiculous. At school, they have normal boobs but in the beach and swimming pool scenes, the breasts are bigger than my ballsacks. I mean, just look at Tsugumi. She has the smallest breasts of them all and in the beach scene, it somehow gets bigger. This is why some parents think anime is a huge hentai.

[Sound]: (9/10)
If the show didn't have interesting OP or ED theme songs then the sound category would have easily been a score of 4 and lower. Why? Because if the show doesn't have(it actually doesn't) interesting music going on in the background then they need to make up with it by making good or great OP and ED theme songs. That's what the show successfully did. OP 1 and OP 2 are both great. Hell, the only reason how I managed to make it past Ep. 1 and 2 is the OP 1 theme song. Both OP's are sung by ClariS and I'm a fan of her songs. Now, about the ED theme songs. There is a lot that I lost count. How many are there? 4? 5? I forget. ED 1 is the only great ending theme song. I think it was sung by the voice actor of Chitoge? The other ED's can just suck it because they're not even worth listening to.

[Characters]: (6/10)
The characters are all cliched and they have a stereotyped character personality. There's nothing original about them. Raku is your typical Harem God surrounded by beautiful girls for no reason. Chitoge is your typical tsundere. She always argues and fight with Raku as she is unable to properly express her inner, loving emotions towards Raku. Kosaki is a dandere. The typical shy girl that only really opens up around good friends and the guy she likes which is obviously Raku. Tsugumi is a kuudere. Cool, calm, collected but is at a total loss about what to do with her newfound feelings of love for (again) Raku. Lastly, Marika is a non-violent yandere girl. Obsessed with having the boy of her dreams to the point of completely reinventing her appearance and personality to appeal to him. Great job for the creators. They managed to squeeze in 4 "dere" characters in the show and put them in Raku's harem. They're nothing original so why didn't I rate the character category a score of 4 and lower? Because they're hilarious. That's the only reason it saved the characters from being a total flop.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enjoyment: (10/10)
My enjoyment category is a perfect score from me not because of the crappy story, not because of the stereotyped and cliched characters but because of how hilarious the show is. Especially the interaction between Chitoge and Raku. This is the reason why I love tsundere girls.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[OVERALL]: (7.8/10)----Rounding it to--(8/10)
There really isn't anything new or fresh with Nisekoi. It's just a story of a harem protagonist filled with stereotypical girls in a cliched high school setting. At the end of the day, the show really goes nowhere. You'll know what I'm talking about if you watched the show. However, despite all of this, the show is still hilarious as hell. The characters and their interaction towards Raku is what saved this show from being a total failure.

Pros:
+Great Animation
+Great Soundtrack
+Hilarious Characters
+A lot of funny moments

Cons:
-Mediocre story
-Stereotyped and cliched characters
-Show goes nowhere (Can I even consider this as a con?)
-Not so great ending
