Sum it up in a Sentence:
A high school student has trouble talking to his crush and must enlist the help of her best friend.
Main Description
Ryūji Takasu is high school student with a good personality, but eyes that make him appear to be a delinquent. Because of this he lacks the confidence to talk to his crush, Minori Kushieda. Also in his class is Minori's best friend, Taiga Aisaka who is considered very unfriendly to say the least. Luckily Taiga has a crush on Ryūji's best friend, Yūsaku Kitamura. Taiga and Ryūji agree to help each other with their problems; drama, bro-mance, and more drama ensues.

Personal Opinions
KenjiKaizoku
Since this is a show that recently finished airing, I'm sure a lot of people already know about it and have their own positive/negative opinions. As for me, I really enjoyed the show. I thought it stayed consistently funny, and was touching at all the right moments. I will concede that it got a little annoying somewhere near the end, but the ending made up for that, in my opinion. 4/5
Indiana_Krom
I don't really have much to comment on this other than I enjoyed it all the way through. It is one of the more solid animes in its genre within the last few seasons: 5/5 for having the perfect mix of comedy and drama.
Avocado Pigeon
I really enjoyed this. It was very funny, had a cast of likable characters, and some drama that kept me glued to the series until the end. I thought the ending was good, as any other option wouldn't make much sense based on how the characters develop and the preceding events. I did think it was too obvious from the start, though. 9/10
Also, Ami and the mom are the best characters.
D13FOOL
Quirky little show about highschool life and such. Funny, insane at times. A bit too much drama at other times. 4/5.
LeosBoots
My boyfriend wanted to watch this, so I joined. It was excruciating. The voices were all extremely high pitched. Taiga was a six year old physically and mentally which made the relationship appear unhealthy and creepy. Oh how cute she can't talk about her feelings. How cute she hits me instead of verbalizing her thoughts. Oh, look how adorable she is, being unable to clean her room. Aww, she's throwing a temper tantrum because she didn't like the way things have turned out. Her personality was so childish and abrasive I don't understand how even the loneliest basement dweller would be able to tolerate it for very long. I was able to predict the ending from the first ten minutes of the show. The show is character driven, but it's about a physically and emotionally stunted girl and the man who loves her. (-100/5)
Aliginge
A completely typical tsundere-romance which happens to have some of the most astonishingly well-animated and gratuitously visceral cat-fights you've ever seen. 10/10.
Grenadier
3/5 - just half a step above average if you're familiar with the genre.
Vargatron
I found this series to be fairly well done in an extremely formulaic genre. The comedy elements were well placed and didn't overshadow the drama elements later in the season. Of course there are times where the plot becomes fairly difficult and laced with fan service, but you really can't expect much given the recent output of slice of life anime.
