Out of all the seasonal anime of Summer 2023, Saint Cecilia and Paster Lawrence was a pleasant surprise. I initially wasn't planning on watching this show, but the first episode had me hooked. The relationship between the two titular characters is fun and goofy while also maintaining a level of cuteness whenever they start revealing their more intimate feelings to one another. The dynamic between these two can feel repetitive at times, especially when it comes to how emotionally dense they are, but it doesn't harm the series too much. The side characters add another level of light-heartedness in an already wholesome anime. The romanceisn't too crazy here, but overall, Saint Cecilia is a cozy romcom, slice of life series that hits all of its intended beats.
