Shunsuke X Yu
Anime Spotlight - Sanrio Boys
This was a total guilty pleasure watch with a simple plot Kōta Hasegawa is a high school boy who loves the yellow Pom Pom Purin dog. By mere coincidence, he ends up attending the same school as Yū Mizuno, a boy who likes the bunny My Melody. Yū tells Kōta that there's nothing to be ashamed of for liking Sanrio's cute characters. Together, Kōta, Yū, Shunsuke Yoshino, Ryō Nishimiya, and Seiichiro Minamoto learn to accept their love of the characters instead of feeling embarrassed.
But despite it being based on Sanrio and def targeting girls how like cute things and cute boys it does its job well. It actually rather sweet and sincere with a few dramatic beats. The characters are likeable and get developed and its pretty positive. Yeah its overly sweet and blatant product placement but they made an effort to give it plot and some obstacles for the boys to overcome on their journey of friendship.
I couldn’t help but like it and it helps that its pretty easy to ship the boys!
