<Story
Kyotaro Ichikawa is a boy with a severe case of chunibyo, who loves to read bizarre books about murder.
He repeatedly glances at Anna Yamada, a beautiful girl in the same class, and has a dangerous fantasy about her.
One day, Yamada comes to the library, Ichikawa's sanctuary.
Assuming she is alone, Yamada acts as she pleases, chewing on a rice ball in a big mouthful and humming happily.
Ichikawa gradually becomes unable to take his eyes off of Yamada as he engages in unpredictable behavior. ......


Comment from n-buna (Yorshika), in charge of the OP theme song

My name is Yorshika, and I am in charge of the theme song. I wrote a song called "Shayo". I think that a simple metaphor fits a relationship that is difficult to put into words. I believe that what I want to depict in Yorshka now and the work "Yabai Yabai Yabai Yabai Yabai Yabai Yabai Yabai" will mix and create a good reaction.

The band's literary lyrics and guitar-based sound created by n-buna and the transparent voice of suis have won the support of the younger generation.


Comment by Koha Naramu, ED theme director
My name is Koha Naramu, and I am in charge of the ending theme. I read the original story and became a fan of "Bokuba Yaba," so I'm really looking forward to the anime broadcast as a fan. The ending theme song, "Sentimentality" is a song about the emotions that everyone experiences when growing up from childhood to adulthood, the difficulty of feeling distance from the opposite sex, and the main characters' feelings of being unable to come to a cohesive whole. I myself, just like the main characters, have sometimes wondered how to become an "adult," and the lyrics are based on scenes that I have empathized with, so please pay attention to the lyrics as well. I would be happy if as many people as possible could spend some time immersed in "Bokuba Yaba" through "Kazu Sentimental".
