However, now that she's always always getting character designer and chief animation director roles in almost all the projects she works on, she just doesn't get time to do key animation.
@@safau25 just replace the hands with eyes It would actually be an interesting character, or just learn how to draw hands. Just draw a hand as a rectangle with a line in the middle dividing the rectangle into 2 perfect squares, connect one square to the arm ( just a long rectangle or a simple line) and play and experiment with it. That's how I learned how to draw hands Use you're hand as an example (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)
So we're not gonna talk about how those 'cute hand movements' are also Sign Language? In my eyes, that makes it both cute and sweet. Not enough people know to lean a form of Sign Language, so seeing it here is a nice touch.
Aww I was like omg these hand motions are so cute, I wonder if its sign language or just kawaii gestures? And then I read this comment and know its actually sign language!! Cute and wholesome ^_^
This shows off how appealing an animated show with sign language could be. To say the least. I mean I know that's not what they're doing in THIS show, but imagine it. : )
thank you so much i literally searched up 'that one anime song with the hand gestures' Edit: YALL. IT WAS FUNNY WHEN I MADE A SPELLING MISTAKE AND YALL STARTED POINTING IT OUT BUT ITS GETTING A BIT TOO MUCH. also I’m not fixing it bc it’s funny. 🖕
Omg you guys have boyfriends? I have a guy friend that likes anime so we watched Konosuba together. I just asked if he wants to watch this one too. It looks really fun and he can get episodes for free somehow
I don’t know why I feel emotional when I watch and listen to this even though I’ve never seen the anime. It’s giving me that nostalgia feeling like I’ve seen this as a kid and just now discovering it again years later.
@@crazydauzy8887 You don't have to hate yourself. We're in the same boat. While we may not have romance, there's so many other sources of happiness out there. For example, my hobby is cycling, and every time I cycle I feel at the top of the world

This has 1 million times more wholesome vibes than any other intro. Screw the waifu’s doing their trope-filled tackle hugs. Gimme those random hand movements. 👌🏻👌🏻
I just love this anime so much. Instead of the traditional anime with the high school romance, this anime is a work romance, so it’s a bit of a change.
The cutesy visuals of this anime opening distract the viewer from the fact that all of these characters are actually casting steal on all of your valuables
Saw this, was impressed by the animations on the hand, looked up the anime, now on episode 7. It's really good, highly recommend it!! Update: super hooked on it now, considering getting the Manga for it :)))))
In the recommended section again wooo loved this anime back when I was in third grade and my “whatever anime was free on Amazon prime” phase was alive and well
This anime is so good bc of how relatable it is on the weeb part. I didn't watch the anime but I read the manga and I do think it's better than the anime. Plus, there are parts in the series of manga that aren't animated. I HIGHKY RECOMMEND IT!
@@DatBrasss I meant that I didn't watch the entire anime, but I could definitely notice the differences. I didn't feel the need to watch the entire thing because I read it. It was the same thing, I'm just saying how the manga had better and more stuff in it.
I still remember a detective Conan opening (or was it ending?) where he had a specific dance. When I was small I would learn it and dance to it every single time. Such fun times!
When i first saw this, i just fought oh neat, it's just the wotaku OP, when i thought, whats special about it. Then a thought occurred It's TikTok again isn't it . . .
I'm sitting in bed at 1:30 learning the movements- I was gonna go to bed- until I saw this- btw I recommend this anime so much to ppl who haven't seen it Edit: I pretty much know the movements But I can't do them on time Edit 2: I also recommend to put it on the lowest speed then slowly move it up the more you get it

Hands are extremely hard to draw and even harder to animate. It would be an incredibly difficult show to make
Wotakoi is one of the most clean and adorable little shows, memes aside. Watch for the Happy Chemical
The hand animations aside, this entire thing is actually really well animated; the transitions are flawless

0:01 "naruto"
I’m pretty sure that ima be obsessed with the song for a while :) like Yarichin B Club for sure
LMFAO same my exact thoughts
this anime was seriously amazing. I always thought it was underrated but I guess i was wrong maybe. Lots of people love it. glad to see that.
you:i know you memorized the hand movements without even watching the show.

I miss wotakoi, needs one more season
