Moe moe moe! Moeness attack is fully presented in this show, the daily lives of few girls in their lovely environment. I will state it bluntly that this anime gives lot of yuriness (since it's heavily yuri show but without nudity on it). I do want the readers comfortably to take a look at the review, as well as, want them to not being uncomfortable if doesn't like yuri genre. The neutralizers of yuri genre, there are also rom com and school life here. 桜Trick was aired on Winter 2014, 12 eps, brought by Studio Deen. Its started as yonkoma (4-panel manga) on 2011 illustrated and written by Tachi. Let's go to the review! |
If you expect that majority of slice-of-life and school life anime stays between the line of average for graphics, well I do so. But it's different with Sakura Trick, from my sight, Sakura Trick stands in the minority of the thoughts, where the visuals really please your eyes. I appreciate the details, colours, and movements here. The colours are soft but placed appropriately, like the rise of shadows, dark colours to bring cloudy aura. For the details and movements are not superb but it is above average for daily life anime genre. I can feel the atmospheres slowly change one into another noticeably by the pleasant scenes through the story.
Since first, the story indeed shows how madly in love Haruka and Yuu is, the first two episodes really set our eyes on their relationship as certainly yuri couple. However, as the time goes, the story reveals gracefully other characters too, how their involvement makes the story to keep moving forward amusingly. At any rate we can find occasionally the story standstill, by standstill I mean, it's only showing us the funny parts of the show before continuing to detailed the characters. Sometimes it goes in the right time but sometimes not.
OP "Won(*3*)Chu KissMe!" by SAKURA*TRICK is a typical energetic song, the pump pump beat and cute voice of the seiyuus. It is really describe the desire of main heroine who loves to chu her beloved partner. My favorite parts are the ending themes. ED "Kiss(and)Love" by SAKURA*TRICK (Haruka Takayama's seiyuu & Yuu Sonoda's seiyuu) is heartwarming while ED for ep 8m "Sakura Sweet Kiss (桜Sweet Kiss)" by SAKURA*TRICK (seiyuus of Mitsuki Sonoda, Sumi Otokawa, & Rina Sakai)♪ is my favorite!
Pros:
- The smooth and pleasant graphics & details (also love the angle when it stops or spots something)
- Fit nicely the seiyuu and characters
- Nice lively show!
Cons:
- Sometimes too much soliloquies
Yuri level is quite high even without ecchi scenes *be careful* (tho' I like it)
