Review of Hey, Class President!

Yet another interesting Yaoi/BL series. Found it through automatic recommendations of fellow MAL members after the recently viewed animes on my list - great recommendation system if I may say so if you're looking for similar animes you've watched before! I like that the standard boy love 'jobs' of the characters are a bit different... instead of being the usual actor/writer/singer/teacher they're students that are a part of a martial arts school club. Fresh sight compared to the usual for me. Additionally... There is excessive blushing involved. Like literally 99% of the time, probably because they're young students discovering this type of love, so getting flusteredcomes easily. A lot more reasonable scenario than getting flustered 99% of the time as a grown adult, I suppose.

There is also a quite slow pace, focused on small details and introspective thinking, specific to this kind of anime. And there's also of course some discussions revolving around sexual harassment, as there seems to always be in this anime genre. Expect some typical things, if you're familiar with Yaoi.

The story got me at about the half of the first OVA episode, where I'd already sort of gotten a bit fond of the character presentation. They've got decent chemistry & animation.

Things move unusually fast paced scene for scene after a while, probably due to the fact that they got just 2 episodes on their hands... and some scenarios would totally not work in real life, but I guess that's the point for us fans, to explore scenarios that otherwise would not really happen.

The scene dramatically changes & twists towards the end of the last episode... in a way I found scary, but worth watching since it can happen in real life. Inserting an element of danger definitely did the plot some service, especially in the way that it did.

Episode two has the natural development of their, well, new relationship... BUT I wish the hot scenes were done a little bit better. Alas! Still a decent anime.
