And boy am I glad I finally watched it. What I enjoyed the most about it was how it explored not just the desires and awakening sexuality of a teenage boy, but also of a teenage girl. Her feelings, wishes, fears and desires felt as fully realised as his.
This was a fascinating anime, both innocent and risqué at the same time. The characters are well drawn, and I really like that the anime doesn't rely on revealing uniforms to allow the female characters be sexual.
Mysterious Girlfriend X isn't free of tropes, but each one is treated in the same fresh, innocent manner, and avoids cliches.
I will probably want to watch this one again 😊
