Summary:
If feels good to laugh, doesn't it? Most people love a good comedy, and if you looked up "good comedy" in the anime/manga dictionary, you'd likely find a picture of Sakamoto desu ga?. This is a story about the ultimate Gary Stu, Sakamoto (Midorikawa Hikaru). First things first, Sakamoto is the coolest kid in school. All eyes are on him from the moment he walks into the room. The girls love him, the boys despise him. As such, his jealous classmates often play tricks on him to make a fool out of this seemingly perfect human being, but no matter what they do, Sakamoto always beats them at their game. Plant a duster on top of the door to land on his head? Sakamoto will catch it and make a fabulous pose instead. Pour a bucket of water in his cubicle when he's in the toilet? Sakamoto's already got an umbrella to keep him dry. No matter how hard life becomes, nothing ever gets the better of Sakamoto, who is focused on progressing through his high school life with class and confidence.
Own opinion:
There are several comedies on offer this season, but none have the acclaim of Sakamoto desu ga?. It's topped the best selling manga charts, its first volume won 2013 Male-Oriented Book of Year, and it won the Comic Natalie Grand Prize in the same year. It may reuse the same gag over and over, but it never seems to get boring – there are no limits to Sakamoto's coolness. I assure you this is the gag anime you should watch. I have finished the manga and it doesn't have a chapter where you won't laugh ir giggle. I'm pretty sure the anime would be the same.
Rank: 5.8 over 5 stars
