Review of Nisekoi: False Love

This review applies to both seasons. Every once in a while an anime adaptation comes along and really elevates the source material from what the manga was able to provide. Niskeoi is a perfectly fine story in manga form, but the art was not really that good. The anime is superior in every way except for completeness. I do not think the anime skips anything important, so a perfectly viable way of getting through all of the story is to watch the first two seasons and then switch to the manga if they need the complete story. Studio Shaft gave Nisekoi and Nisekoi 2 great animation.The character designs are good. The story, such that it covers, is good. Unfortunately, Nisekoi is a really long story, so not much happens in the anime adaptation, so expect more of a low-stakes, slice-of-life experience while watching the anime. The animation also does a good job of driving home some of the cartoonier aspects of the manga. This show is great for anyone who wants to watch something silly where nothing really happens and is okay with it likely never being completed as an anime.
