It has been announced that "I Shaved. Then I Brought Home a High School Girl" will be made into an anime, and the series has a huge core fan base, many of whom have been waiting for it to be made into an anime. It's exciting when it is announced that a work you love will be made into an anime, isn't it? So, today I would like to take another look at what makes this series so interesting for those fans and those who have become interested after seeing the promotional video on YouTube. Before the anime airs, take another look at what makes this series so interesting and see what you can look forward to.
Many Fascinating Female Characters
One of the greatest attractions of this series is the numerous fascinating female characters that appear. This series features female characters from all walks of life. It's this diverse cast of characters that really adds color to the series.
Popular opinions are divided!
This work features many different types of female characters, including the heroine Sayu, so it seems that no matter what kind of reader you are, there's always at least one woman who suits them. Discussing which female characters in this work are your favorite is one way to enjoy this work.
Sayu is the most popular character, after all
This series features many fascinating female characters, but the most popular by far is the heroine, Sayu. Sayu has received more support than any other character, and it can be said that she is the character who has contributed the most to the series' popularity.
I can't wait to see her in action in the anime!!
Because this series features so many unique characters, it's exciting to see them in action in the anime. By watching them in motion, you may be able to discover more about the characters' personalities that you couldn't discover in the original novel or manga versions.
Complex Themes
The appeal of this work isn't just its charming characters. Originally developed as a novel, the rich story development, steeped in complex themes, is another appealing feature of this work.
Is this really a light novel?!
The theme of this work unfolds through satire of modern society and complex issues rarely discussed in anime. The richness of this story is a remnant of the fact that the work was originally a novel, and it is also what sets "I Shaved. Then I Brought Home a High School Girl." apart from other anime airing this year.
Sayu and Self-Affirmation
This work tells the story of the heroine, Sayu, searching for her place in the world. As Sayu searches for her place in the world, Yoshida's view of what a parent should be like and how he treats her changes. By depicting this process, the work's central theme, the lack of interaction with children in modern society, is brought to our attention.
It's also a story of Yoshida's growth.
This work isn't just about Sayu's growth. Yoshida, who is in the position of protecting Sayu, also grows as a man. For this reason, the work features many scenes in which not only Sayu but also Yoshida is troubled. This structure makes it easy for male readers to empathize with not only the female characters but also Yoshida.
A Literary-Inspired Work
As you can see, this work is deeply imbued with literary qualities. It might be interesting to not only focus on the cute characters, but also to consider the theme of this work and enjoy it as a whole.
It's a heavy read, but it's also a fun read
As explained above, this work's theme is very heavy. The heroine, Sayu, also has a very heavy background: she originally had relationships with numerous men just to secure a place to sleep. However, despite this heavy theme, this work has been carefully crafted to allow many readers to enjoy the work without stress.
Lightweight writing
First, the writing itself is incredibly light and easy to read. In a work dealing with such a heavy theme, the language often becomes increasingly difficult to understand in proportion to the content. However, this work deliberately avoids complex language and instead focuses directly on the characters' psychological states, making it easy for readers to understand.
You can also read it as a manga!
In addition, this work is currently being adapted into a manga, so readers who are reluctant to follow the novel can follow the story in the manga version. Like the novel, the story unfolds with a deep focus on the characters' psychological states, so you can fully enjoy the complex story that is the series' hallmark.
A work that can be enjoyed by a wide range of people!
As such, this work is easy to read, not only because of the original novel version, but also because of the manga version, making it enjoyable for a wide range of readers. If you're interested after watching the anime trailer, we recommend picking up either the novel or the manga, whichever suits you best.
Why This Work Is Suitable for Anime
Here, I would like to further explain why this work is suitable for anime. Many works based on novels are not suited to story development on screen, but this work is uniquely suited to animation. Let me explain the reasons in detail.
The author's ingenuity is the key to successful animation!?
First of all, one reason this work is well suited to an anime adaptation is the author's ingenuity in making the theme easy to understand for readers, as mentioned earlier.
The literary yet easy-to-understand approach is a game changer.
While many literary works typically use abstract language, this work deliberately avoids such esoteric language and instead directly portrays the characters' psychological states. This makes it an easy work to translate into anime.
Can it successfully overcome the weaknesses of anime?
Anime inevitably has the drawback of providing less overall information than novels. When a work is based on a novel, many people feel that the anime version ended without much progress being made. However, this work's author has done his best to avoid novel-specific tropes, making it easier to express in anime than other works.
Watch the promotional video!!
These are the reasons why this work is well suited to being adapted into an anime. Are you looking forward to the anime version of "I Shaved. Then I Brought Home a High School Girl."? If so, we highly recommend you check out the anime trailer. You'll be excited for the anime to air!
I can't wait to see how it's portrayed in the anime!
I've given this a lot of thought, but I can't wait for the anime version of "I Shaved. Then I Picked Up a High School Girl." I can't wait to see how the female characters in this work will perform and how the theme of this work will be expressed.
I look forward to seeing what the author does next!
Even more noteworthy is the work itself. Shimesaba Sensei, the author of the original novel, is a rookie novelist in his third year of writing. It's amazing that he has already had a work adapted into an anime in just his third year.
There's still a lot to come!
Considering Shimesaba's career, this work, "Shaving My Beard. Picking Up a High School Girl.", is just the first step. It will likely be a while before Shimesaba shows his true talent. We'll be keeping an eye on his work from now on.
What's next?!
We're already looking forward to seeing what he'll write next. Let's look forward to him creating another hit like "I Shaved. Then I Brought Home a High School Girl."
Check him out on Twitter!
You can follow Shimesaba Sensei's activities on his Twitter account. He not only posts about his work, but also about his hobbies, so if you're interested, be sure to check it out.
