Look, I do like this show, in fact I'd consider it quite good for a Kuromi centric series, however the main issue is that the episodes are way too short. This whole plot feels very rushed and it feels like there's too much going on. HOWEVER, this show is not bad at all, as I mentioned, I like it a lot and for a Kuromi centric series, it's very well done. Let me bring up the positives.
1. The comedy is really funny
Seriously, the chemistry that everyone has with one another is so funny. The really bounce off each other so well. I also LOVE the 4th wall breaking, I thought that was really well done!
2. The voice acting in FANTASTIC.
Kuromi's voice in this series fits so well. Diana Garnet brings this character to life so well. She's on par with Jenny Yokobori (She voices the character in Hello Kitty and friends supercute adventures) for the best voice for Kuromi. Baku also sounds really good too. Very happy this got an english dub!
3. The new characters are a lot of fun
I really like the addition of Kuromi having a "big sister." It adds a lot of emotional depth and makes her adventure more significant to her, and really makes this feel like an actual quest. The other new characters are a lot of fun too.
4. The ending is really bittersweet..... albeit rushed
The ending is very heartbreaking and you may actually tear up if your not prepared, the twist is literally out of nowhere and really impactful. However, it's VERY Rushed. Like I mentioned, these episodes are EXTREMELY short. These are just 2 minutes. I felt like they could've been longer. It would've made the ending a LOT More impactful and maybe I WOULD have been crying.
Overall, while this show is very good, I feel like there was also missed potential, like something was missing that could've made this a true MASTERPEICE. I feel like this could've benefited more if it was a feature length film. Making this whole story feature length just sounds like the right thing to do. It would have added more depth to the characters, makes the adventure more grand than it already is, and more importantly, make the ending feel a lot more earned. Overall, I'd give this an 8/10. Defiantly recommend it, but if your a massive Kuromi fan like I am and anticipate this to be a masterpeice.... Well.... I'd lower those expectations a little bit because you'll be massively disappointed if you DO go in with those high expectations.
