Oh hey, it's another C+. I haven't given one of those out in a while.
Acchi Kocchi (Alternately translated as 'all over the place' or 'place to place', literally 'here there') is a cute, slice of life romantic comedy based off a 4koma comic. These are all traits which cause it to be fairly insubstantial, which isn't necessarily a problem, but it does leave me with very little to say about it.
The main character (above) is described as a tsundere, but she's more just very easily embarrassed about her crush and amusingly intolerant of her friends' pranks. The male characters are a fairly traditional pair, one being the cool guy and the other being the goofball, though the cool guy is the focus, because he is the target of our main character's crush.
And once you know the formula of the cast, there isn't really a story or any sort of progress or change in the status quo, just a series of vaguely connected episodes of high school silliness.
It's certainly not a bad series, and it's regularly funny, but it lacks the brilliance and audacity of Potemayo or KoreZombie of the Dead. I'd certainly watch more of it if there was more of it to watch, but I really do find it difficult to praise.
If you want to watch high school kids being cute and silly for 13 episodes, you could spend your time a lot worse than watching Acchi Kocchi. If you're looking for any sort of depth or meaning, look elsewhere.
