Surprisingly Enjoyable
20 July 2022
My Dress-Up Darling is just the right amount of sentimental to warm my heart. The romance feels organic and rarely forced. The animation, storyboards, lighting, acting, sound effects, and music came together so elegantly I was stunned. Both main characters, male and female, respect each other and are treated as equals. Their emotional intelligence, ideals, and motivation grow through their interactions, and that's a beautiful thing to see. However, I cannot recommend it to everyone due to the excessive fanservice, repetitive humor, and lack of character development of its female main character. Give it a shot for those patient enough to see the wholesome romance and thoughtful approach to cosplay. You might just be as pleasantly surprised as I was.
