Another great anime to relax to. While the premise is almost forgotten about for half the show, the mellow slice-of-life tone and the characters' chemistry was more than enough to keep me invested. I love fermented foods too, so this anime was a rare but wonderful surprise for me. What I didn't expect was the sudden, but eventually welcome change of tone in the last two episodes. The agony and struggle to find one's place in the world can be intense and seemingly endless at times, but the anime ends on a very positive and optimistic note. The colours and animation were solid too, something you wouldn'texpect from such a chill anime. There's a lot of attention to detail and not two characters look the same. Brilliant show, overall!

It's also very rare to see so many sex jokes that aren't over the top. The show is definitely self-aware in that regard and it's a nice bonus. Maybe all the homosexual jokes in particular are about trying new things and finding yourself as well!
