S4E16 - LOVE, CHUUNIBYO & OTHER DELUSIONS! Review (Season 1, 2012)

S4E16 - LOVE, CHUUNIBYO & OTHER DELUSIONS! Review (Season 1, 2012)

We are back for Part 5 of our Kyoto Vacation, entitled “Kyoto Animation’s Splendid Isolation,” where we will be looking at the period in the 2010s when KyoAni took complete control of their source material and began creating anime based on light novels they themselves published! That effort began with 2012’s Love, Chuunibyo & Other Delusions!, a series that starts out as a very funny, very silly odd-couple comedy between a boy trying to leave his youthful obsessions behind and a girl still embroiled in playing pretend, before gradually becoming a startlingly rich, incredibly touching story about how fiction and fantasy help us process grief. It’s another Kyoto Animation home run, one that sneaks up on the viewer but lands its punches with startling power. We discuss the 12-episode first season from 2012 in today’s episode, but will be back later in Part 5 to discuss the show’s second season and movie sequel.

Enjoy, and come back next week for our review of Tamako Market and its feature film follow-up, Tamako Love Story!
