Review of D-Frag!

D-Frag is a great example of an easy-watching anime comedy. A harem at heart, this show, without ever really doing anything exceptional, ticks so many boxes. The poster character of the series, the diminutive Shibasaki Roka, is a delightful character, while the other characters all fill out clear roles in a cast sheet that would definitely score full-house on a ‘stereotypical high-school comedy characters’ bingo sheet. The comedy is good, but this is mostly down to the sheer amount of jokes per episode. I believe D-Frag has a mantra that reads ‘If we put one-hundred small jokes in a 24-minute period, then logic dictates that some ofthem have to stick.’ Most of the jokes involve lead character Kazuma shouting at the girls, which gets annoying after a while, but there's not really a single episode that isn't funny.

While appearing like 'just another comedy', D-Frag manages to play on stereotypes while also establishing its own brand of wacky high-schoolers. Very funny, very colourful, D-Frag is a solid high-school comedy that will fill that hole in your watchlist!
