Cute girls baking cookies. Not much to say about the KoiChoco OVA, really. It basically chronicles an afternoon in the life of Yuuki as the overworked Student Council President, or more specifically Chisato and Satsuki fighting over his time. Chisato wants him to teach her to bake, and Satsuki wants […] Read more
KoiChoco ended up being like a sandwich with a delicious filling on slightly stale bread. I’m going away from KoiChoco with a mostly positive feeling, though the conclusion doesn’t show off the series at its best. The concluding episode (there will be a bonus BD ep, which looks like a […] Read more
To be honest, this isn’t going to be an especially fun post to write. I hope that doesn’t come off as too alarming, because it’s not as though I’m going to open fire on KoiChoco with both barrels (as many seem to have done). Nevertheless, the fact is that I […] Read more
Even if there weren’t a whole bunch of other reasons, I’d still watch KoiChoco just because every week, without fail, it finds a way to surprise me. The answers are coming fast and furious in my third-favorite Summer series now, with “Chocolate” fully explained, Michiru’s role clarified at last, and […] Read more
No major surprises in the KoiChoco poll – Satsuki wins big, 2.5-1 over Chisato, who edges the late-charging Hazuki for second. For a while Yume and his yaoi stick held a surprise third, but he slips to fourth… The Obligatory “Yuuki and…” KoiChoco Poll Read more

A funny thing happened on the way to figuring out this season, and its name is KoiChoco. The two shows that have been on top of the chart for me this Summer are Jinrui and Natsuyuki Rendezvous, and that’s been pretty well locked in place since the second week – […] Read more
This episode marks the point in KoiChoco where the most obvious main heroine climbs into the bath with the main character. I’m sure Chisato’s fans are hoping it turns out better for her than it did for the girl who last tried it in a VN adaptation. For me, this […] Read more
KoiChoco follows up its best character-driven episode yet with a pretty darn good one focused on the “Election” part of the title. There have been more than a few anime over the years that have had student politics as a primary – or at least prominent secondary – focus. But […] Read more
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, so they say – and if there were any worries about losing interest in KoiChoco after a two week Olympic break, episode 5 pretty much dispelled them for me. The upside with this show for me would be Mashiro-iro Symphony – a show that […] Read more
