Source-derived summary

My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU is a Japanese anime television series based on My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, as I Expected, the light novel series written by Wataru Watari. Soubu High School is filled with many different types of teenagers all wanting to fit in. Despite preferring to be a loner, Hachiman Hikigaya is forced to join fellow loner, Yukino Yukinoshita and classmate, Yui Yuigahama in forming the Soubu High School Service Club. Also being linked by a car accident in the past, these three offer help to their fellow adolescents in dealing with the struggles and complicated psychology of being a teenager.

The first season is produced by animation studio Brain's Base and directed by Ai Yoshimura, with series composition by Shōtarō Suga, character design by Yū Shindō, art direction by Shigemi Ikeda, music by Monaca, and sound direction by Satoshi Motoyama. The series premiered on April 5, 2013, on TBS with later airings on MBS, CBC and BS-TBS. The twelve-episode season was followed by an extra thirteenth episode which aired on June 28, 2013, and an OVA episode on September 19, 2013, both of which were written by Watari. The season was picked up by Crunchyroll for online simulcast streaming in North America and other select parts of the world.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU season 1” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Teen, Romantic and Comedy provides the most credible route into that argument.

Critical limits

The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account.
