Review of Teasing Master Takagi-san

Slice-of-life story about a grade school boy named Nishikata who tries to outsmart his seat mate Takagi, it is told through loosely connected short skits with recurring side characters. The art and background music is standard, water colour backgrounds, simple shading, lot of wood winds. However the voice acting and writing is better than usual, it is not over acted but there is enough effort put in to make it seem natural plus the manga provided a good base for the script. I like that the show is low key just a girl negging a beta male in the hopes that he likes her, and hehates every moment. Its is everything I remember from grade school, and it is great to see a show about a girl winning dispute her opponents skill without be a Mary Sue. I dislike that the background characters have no real development but still take up a portion of the show, but that is just nit picking.
