The Kawai Complex Guide For Manors and Hostel Behaviour — Review

Alright, so this is an anime review and anime is insane, so it's only logical to expect THIS one to be too, right?
It kinda is, kinda isn't, really.

The main characters sans Sumiko-san, (still, notice Sayaka's lesbian antics here.)

It's kind of a romantic comedy, so there isn't really anything new here.
Except for one thing.
The main character looks like such a yaoi protagonist.
I am not kidding:

Usa, the protagonist eating.

Honestly, he has the big eyes. 
Like, really big.
Too big for a shounen protagonist, but, well, at least it's more of a seinen anime, so it feels justified a bit more.
Anyhow, his love interest is one of those silent types.
Hardcore silent, though.
She honestly would like nothing more than to just read forever with little to no company.

Kawai, the love interest. (Source for the GIF: x)

Anyhow, the story kicks off with Usa being in school and he mentions that he wants nothing more than to spend his high school days with a nice girl who is quiet and smart and whatever else.
He pretty much wants a pixie girl is all you need to know. 
THEN he finds his senpai, Kawai, in the library reading and lovingly stares and says that's his crush, narratively.
After this he mentions that he's moving someplace knew without his parents because what's an anime with anime parents?
Evangelion?
Kill La Kill?
Exactly.
And so he moves into the Kawai Complex and finds that, unbeknownst to him, he has a:
sadist roommate who likes any type of harm and abuse,
(he even voluntarily suffers from heatstroke at one point)

Shiro, the masochist, beside Sumiko-san, the housekeeper.

a drunk neighbor who is both easy and kinda dumb,
(seriously, she gives in to nearly any guy, she needs higher standards) 

Mayumi, the easy tenant.

and a mostly evil girl who is afraid of taking off her makeup
(she is always finding ways to get at people). 

Sayaka, in her full face of makeup.

With this information, he decides to leave at once and find another place to live except that as he walks out he finds Kawai walking in.
Apparently she's the fifth tenant.
And so he decides to stay because he wants to be close to her.
After that, there isn't really much to say.
Like, a lot of crazy things happen, but it's all very sitcom-y.
If you want to watch an anime sitcom with will-they won't-they antics that doesn't really gets solved, watch this.
I am serious about that, though, nothing really gets solved, and they don't, and you know why?
This is based off of a light novel and I am willing to bet that even there it's too early on to know whether they will or not, although, they do hint that they will.

"Plays 'Wonderwall'" (but, no, she really just plays and then cries randomly).

Pros:Giving the series a cozy, home-like feeling of the suburbs.
The art style, which tends to feel shiny and glossy.
Plenty of laugh-worthy moments.

Cons: 
It doesn't really bring anything new to the table.
The characters are not fully fleshed out and their relationships aren't either.
An anti-climactic final episode.

Grade:
Watch this only if you're really bored and cannot think of anything better to watch if you're craving comedy and a pretty good art style.
