Review of Hyouka

Yet your another high school anime? No! This is not some harem romance about cute MC finding his true love. It is about sacrastic bored high schooler Oreki who wants just to have his peace (Hachiman?) , but sadly he is super intelligent and so his days of energy savings are done, when he meets main heroine Eru. The show contains short stories of mystery solving, the pattern goes pretty same every time. Something happen, Eru gets currious, Oreki solves the mystery in a way Sherlock Holmes would be jelous and thats it. One would think that its not that interesting, but it IS. The waythe mysteries and the progress of the story is written is so catching you will finish the anime in one day. Oreki is one hell of the badass and in my opinion on of the best high school MC in the anime.

Every mystery they solve is focused on different topic, but mostly daily business, nothing supernatural. F.E. what happened 45 years age to this guy that he was expelled from the school, who has stolen the ladle from the cooking contest etc. But that does not lower the overall tension. Everything fits together and creates wonderfull experience.

Other two Senpai from the main cast are much of a filler, they mostly act as a funny element or a bonus to Oreki and Eru. But it works pretty well.

The main story does not progress as much as you would thought. Basically the only bigger change we can see is in change of MC personallity.

Overall its great show that deserves attention from everyone who does like something untraditional.
