In trying to be ordinary, it begets more questions than answers, leaving a curious sensation
webm(https://v.animethemes.moe/ShoushiminSeries-OP1.webm)
*Shoshimin: How to Become Ordinary* is quite a curious title. With it being a mystery anime, even just its title leads me to question things. “Shoshimin”, is translated as the [petite bourgeoisie](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petite_bourgeo…

Read full review on AniList →An excellently constructed mystery series paired with a complicated and compelling examination of its characters
Shoushimin is an excellently constructed series on both the technical level with its mysteries and on the character front with how complex and compelling its leads are. As another early work of Yonezawa Honobu, the comparisons to Hyouka were almost inevitable given the latter’s acclaim. But despite…

Shoshimin: How to Become Ordinary does not start with fanfare and a display of splendor but with restraint a story which draws you into the minds of two teens looking into oblivion to become ordinary. Based on a novel by Honobu Yonezawa (who wrote Hyouka), the series is a slice-of-life-mystery with…

Hyouka has been my favorite anime, ever since I first watched it quite a number of years ago now (it should be around 7). Obviously I was quite ecstatic upon hearing that another one of the author's novels would receive an adaptation. I had never engaged with the source material before, so I went in…

Este es uno de los mejores animes de detectives que he visto, y aquí te enumero los motivos:
1- El hilo de pensamiento del protagonista para razonar es lento y no ocurre tras resolver el misterio. ¿Qué quiere esto decir? Pues que la serie invita a pensar con el protagonista mientras deduce. Piénsal…
Read full review on AniList →A visually intriguing experience told through the lens of two ordinary lives
The first anime I finished this season (Summer 2024) and it was one of, if not the most interesting anime to follow weekly. From the same author as Hyouka (whose story didn't convince me when I saw it), it tells the journey of the two protagonists, Kobato and Osanai, to become “ordinary”, or at leas…
