The narrative centers on a build-up of a love story - specifically, the budding romance between the two main characters. But as the episodes end and start again, the progression of the storyline seemed slow.

Genre:
Romance-Comedy, they're trying to make it funny but I could only count the number of times I let out a guffaw - twice. Mainly because of Himuro's sister.
Romantic, yes, but the characters were too timid that the only time I felt 'kilig' was the shrine scene. But I didn't feel giddy for the main pair, I felt it with the supporting characters. Although there was one particular scene which made my heart warm up to them, that was when he gifted her the pair of earrings, and it was in the last part of the series.
Supernatural, why would it not, well they had skills - cool skills. Unfortunately, the skills weren't featured in that manner. The story really just centered on the main characters.

There are lessons you can learn but it's not something you don't know yet. It's really more of them realizing the changes in their lives; doing things they never thought they'd ever do. But it makes sense because they are now working adults.
The couple expressed light feelings, it didn't feel intense. What was weird was that they get overly stressed about cute things or actions. Well, it's what happens when you have crushes but it really didn't scream 'romance'. Some episodes were too boring to the point that I didn't want to finish it as it seemed predictable. As mentioned earlier, there was no build up in the story. Perhaps they wanted to keep it as a wholesome story but it was not enough to enchant me. It really fell flat.
If you are into laidback slow storylines, this is something you'll enjoy. There's no excessive drama. It's more of a feel-good watch. You'll probably want to watch this Josie series if you liked Komi Can't Communicate. Komi had better progression, I'd say.
