Morita-san wa Mukuchi.

For one reason or another, many people seem to dislike or just overlook short animes. It's true that lots of them are bad, but it's also true there are some worth watching. This is...a hard choice. You may want to keep reading to find out. There is one particular genre that some people really love and some really hate: High School slice-of-life comedies. I, personally, can tolerate them, but twenty minutes is usually too long so I tend to get bored at times. Luckily, for me and those who think twenty minutes is too long for this kind of anime, exist Morita-sanwa Mukuchi. A very simple High School slice-of-life comedy; It goes straight to the funny part and the episodes end with a punch-line. Simple as that. The art is pretty good for a short, though nothing special if you compare it to any current non-shounen twenty minute-long anime. As far a sound goes, I find the OP really annoying, but the seiyuus are good enough. Again, pretty simple anime, not much work in the voice department needed. Funny thing that the main character is virtually mute. I only need one word to describe the characters. Generic. Good thing nobody was expecting anything different. Oh yeah! Did I mention the main character is virtually mute? Now the cast is has someone who is not THAT generic! All things said, I enjoy this anime. It's funny enough and it's only three minutes long. Go watch it, you'll probably enjoy it.

So at this time, I've finished all 13 episodes but MAL won't let me set it as completed >_>, but whatever, lol. The main thing to point out about this anime is that it's 3 minutes long. A lot of people may have different opinions towards this, but I'll tell you mine. It's perfect. They had an anime to show, but it'd be hard competing with all the other ones that have been released, especially when there is no story, no character development, or anything complex. So what do they do?, make the eps only 3 minutes long. Due to this, someone like me who hastheir dish of anime always being full, always has time to spare 3 minutes to watch something fun and light hearted. I find that my enjoyment of these 3 minute episodes of Morita-san wa Mukuchi can sometimes even be greater than those with the traditional 24 minute episodes. I've watched things like, Lucky Star, K-ON!, or A-Channel and I tell you, Morita-san wa Mukuchi, though doesn't live up to be as good as those, it's pretty damn good for what it achieves in the time it has. Anyways, this is just something nice to pick up when you're bored or want to kill time. It's not something that's supposed to be dug up and thought about in a difficult manner. It's just something that's just..... there. You know... it's just... there. Story: 5 There is no story. Art: 5 It's kinda old, but I didn't expect much anyway. Sound: 5 It was nice. Character: 6 There was no character development, but I didn't see anything cliche (e.g. girl with watermelons has boobs lol). What's interesting is Mayu is the most interesting character for someone who hardly talks. Enjoyment: 8 I liked it. I can always spare 3 minutes watching eps as they came out. Skipping the OP will cut it down to 2 minutes and a half, so it's even shorter. Overall: 7 There is nothing actually wrong with this anime. Sure there is no story but I've seen plenty of anime with no story. Though they make up for it by character development, but this doesn't even have that. It's really is just purely based on the enjoyment it gives. But, it surprises me how well they can use 2 and a half minutes. Bored? Don't feel like watching something serious? Give this a try! :P

Its a 3 mins per episode anime and there are 13 episodes so in all your spending 39 mins on this whole anime, plus somehow the creator(s) are able to put in a opening song within the three mins which last 30 secs so you can say each episode is 2 mins and 30 secs, so why not watch it. The main character doesnt say anything throught out the anime, well except in her mind, while her friends and her mother, the side characters,wont shut up. This anime is definitely a slice of life anime with a slight shoujo ai context to it butnothing more. well enough with this review just watch the anime.

Morita-san wa Mukuchi is good, simple, slice of life fun, and that really is the best way to describe it. This anime consists of these little, vanishingly brief doses of cute comedy, based around the simple premise of a girl who's just too nervous to talk. This has good iterative potential, especially for an episodic comedy like this one, so it is for this reason that the story is the strongest aspect. It's lighthearted, creative, and funny, which are all essential aspects of a title like this, even if it can feel a little underwhelming at times as a result, almost as if it's acreative entity without any substance. However, I contend that anybody letting that get in the way of a title like this is watching it for all the wrong reasons. If anything, the light yuri elements are a larger thematic issue- it's as though they're written by a different writer than the main story, and end up feeling rather incongruous. The art is solid, meeting all the basic standards of quality common to the moe boom of the 2000s and early 2010s. It is bright, colorful, crisp, and simple, embodying nothing more and nothing less than what such a brief showing requires at the end of the day. There is less to say of the sound, though the voice work is a good fit and the OPs for both the first and second seasons are very catchy, and one doesn't get tired of them, despite the fact they are heard so frequently due to the brevity of the episodes. The characters are also solid, as their actions, motivations, and eccentricities are what drives the story along in the first place. Of them, Morita is a clear favorite, as her quirk of being generally reticent requires the story to become creative with her character without relying on dialogue- a potent advantage in a show where the episodes are only a few minutes a piece. Everybody else does a good job supporting and playing off her, but none of them really stand out in the same way she does. Overall, Morita-san wa Mukuchi is a pleasant little romp that only takes just under 40 minutes per season to watch, and, even with some of its shortcomings, it is definitely worth your time, especially if you're looking for something quick and cute to occupy your time.
