Review of Days with My Stepsister

Bland. Boring. Monotonous. I'd say this sums up this show pretty well. Such an uninspired "romance" show that felt like it was trying to hard to be different. I won't lie tho, it was different. But different in that it was more boring and dull than the other stepsister shows out there. Maybe that deserves it's own award. First order of business: Story. Stale and Tiresome. I felt about 90% of this show was a back and forth between the characters with no progress and stagnant situations and dialogue. Also chemistry. THERE WAS NONE. Goodness, I felt absolutely nothing between the characters AT ALL. Theyfeel like strangers for the entirety of the series. It gets old quick.

The animation for this show wasn't horrible, but wasn't great either. Also didn't love the artstyle but honestly it doesn't really mean anything to me anyway. It doesn't need amazing animation so it kind of works in its favor but could've been a *bit* better as the characters felt like robots just moving on orders.

The only reason I gave this series a 4 instead of a 3 or lower was because the last 2-3 episodes weren't bad. It felt like, "Ah, there's progress. Finally." If only that progress could've happened earlier or if the characters maybe acted differently and had more interest in each other but it could not make up for the elements this show was lacking. unfortunately.

Overall, Total waste of time and don't even know how I managed to finish this show when I did not enjoy it. I'd say skip this show as it's not worth 12 episodes of just robots talking.
