| The romance kind of forced and a famous cool character really doesn't fit Shima at all (for me) to plain and generic but the friendship that Mitsuki build with her friend is the plus point for this anime, I'll give it 6/10 at least but if s2 released I'd just skip it Just another highschool romance nothing new |
| Well, can't say there was a lot of skipping and loafing in the show (other than that one time when Shima faked being sick), so what does the title mean exactly in the series' context? |
| Well, for a PA anime, that somewhat decent and didn't up being a total disaster but boy did they dragged out Shima story, the pacing and those little hints of backstories here and there got so annoying maybe because PA aren't really accustomed to adapted anime, I don't know It had many likable elements like characters, art style and score yet it settled on being average but I hope we have a 2nd season, maybe that will have more substance |
| Really hoping for a second season. I really loved this drama show with a hint of romance. I am going to miss these characters knowing it will take years for it to have a 2nd season. |

| Shimakun is the best thing to come out of this. His character is far more relatable than he sounds on paper, but feeling lost and directionless while your talent passes you by and you kind of just want to chill out with your friends and cute pseudolovers -- I feel that. lovely, cute, timewaster SoL. These aren't the sorts of shows I think about in 10 years (more or less; for some reason Ao Haru Ride is on my mind bizarrely frequently), but they're charming casual watches. |

| Ririka is indeed self destructing herself and it was kind of funny how Chris called her out especially wither her grades lol. But I am glad that Sousuke stood up against her, finally and I wish she will also have character development, if we will still see her. Anyway, I really enjoyed this show, and Mitsumi is really a very likable character. And also the others, I'm sad that this already ended, I wish for more huhu |

| Some character developement for Sousuke by admitting he had envy of others and starting to notice he clearly sees Mitsumi in a different light, that was a nice way to parallel the episode when Mitsumi did the same :) This was such a delightful show, want more. |
| Really love mitsumi as a character, and its crazy how hard she is carrying this show. |
Loved Mitsumi and her friends, Shimas personal life drama was mostly annoying. |

I love the motif of her being so fascinated by how bright the people of Tokyo are while she was actually shining the brightest.
| @basskiller This is genuinely a beautiful take, thank you for sharing. |
| That was a really cute anime, very relatable and heartwarming ! The characters were all endearing and easy to connect with. I was surprised that the story turned out not exactly to be a romance but I'm totally fine with it, it decided instead to focus on the friendship aspect and that's great. I had a with good time with this show and I'm really hoping for a season 2 to see more of all these characters ! I give it a 7/10. |

| In this final episode, Shima was finally able to confront Ririka and tell her he's no longer with her on that auto-destructive path that she wanted him to take, and will instead enjoy is high school life, like he should been since the beginning. I'm really glad to see Shima be much more "free" after that and being finally able to fully enjoy his days as a high school student. Ririka didn't really like this, but I think it will also help her and her friendship with Shima in the future, because at the end of the day, Shima wasn't the only one at fault for what happened to her, and they were just kids at the end of the day... But it seems like she has a lot to unpack for herself, and is jealous of Shima being able to live a normal high school student life... I wonder if we will know more about this in the future. Also, Chris seems to have a bit of a crush on Ririka, which explains why he was always explaining her unexplainable atittudes towards Shima, because let's be real, Chris should have stopped them way before this moment. I'm just so glad that Shima met Mitsumi, because she really was the breath of fresh air he needed to finally understand what he was feeling, and how he just was isolating himself from others, due to envy too. Ririka was rude to Shima's mom honestly, and I don't kow if Shima didn't want to perform for his mother, but due to how he never did anything for himself, instead he did everything to please others, maybe his mom not being there was for the better, so that he could act for once for himself. That last scene with Shima and Mitsumi, ohoh, it seems like they are starting to fall in love for each other more and more, and it's so cute! Also, we got some Kazakami and Takamine cute scenes, I'm interested to see how their relationship goes from here, it seems like Kazakami has more to his character than what it appears! Honestly this anime is WHOLESOME, as I said before, it's just healing to watch this after a bad day, it makes all your problems disappear, and you just end the episode with a smile on your face. Although I would have liked this Ririka plot to have been resolved in a different manner, I still think this anime is really well done, and I really hope we can get a 2nd season someday, because we need more of Skip and Loafer in our lives honestly! The characters are all so memorable in my opinion, and the story is just wholesome. For me, this anime is easily a high 9/10! I'm actually sad I don't have more episodes to watch from this anime, and I will need to find another healing anime like this one! I didn't have many expectations for Skip And Loafer, but oh boy, they delivered with this one! P. A. Works as always a way of making anime that really fits my style, and although this anime is an adaptation, it still fits their usual style like a glove! SO PLEASE, P.A. WORKS, DO A 2ND SEASON, WE NEED IT! We need Mitsumi to get to be president one day! |
| So I watched this because someone mentioned the series on a forum post about Hachimitsu to Clover. I'd say it wasn't as special to me as the latter, but this series was definitely a very refreshing watch. I loved Mitsumi and her interaction with everyone in the casts including Shima, the male protagonist; I kinda wished they'd deep diver around their relationship. Really hoping for a second season. |

| I'm loving it! Waiting for the second season~ |

| At first it was a bit funny, but quickly became banal. |
| Funny discovering that Ririka was actually the anteater trying to look big all along. For how long she was being built as an antagonist having her broke with a timid "So, I will enjoy high school." kinda make me feel like Shima problems are almost completely inconsequential, which is the case for all character in the cast, but end up making these build-ups feel unnecessary. |
