Sleep Is For the Weak

PG-13 for mostly tame romance and humor and stuff; informational website

Blech. The beginning of this anime tells the audience: “This is the story of three sisters. Please don’t expect much.” You know your anime sucks when your tongue-in-cheek self-deprecation can be taken in complete seriousness. This show is boring, pointless, unlikable, and stupid. I think it’s one of those seinen “moe” serious–like Azumanga Daioh–where half the joy is its older male audience just basking in the girly, and whereas I can understand that, DO NOT go to this show for your moe. There must be moe out there that isn’t entirely comprised of slow-paced, lame jokes and dialogue so bad I nearly punched the television. There were definitely a few jokes in here that COULD have been funny, but the show is so poorly executed, they ended up being barely amusing. The animation quality is nice enough, I guess? That’s all I can say in this show’s favor. There’s also a manga for this series, but I refuse to read it.

Initial impression: This show can go to hell. (Lianne)
