    Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It

    Studio: Zero-G

    Genre: Romance, Comedy

    Streaming: Crunchyroll

    Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It is a romantic comedy with a heavy emphasis on the comedy aspect. Following two graduate students at a university, who both study and are obsessed with how science works, they take the logical course of action when one of them, Himura, confesses that she is in love with the other.

    The anime is quirky from the outset, playing greatly on the science theme throughout whether it’s when introducing new characters to the opening animation. It actually brings Steins;Gate to mind though genre-wise the two anime are vastly different. Still, this is perhaps one of the first romantic themed animes I’ve seen where the protagonists are both adults and in a science setting. The anime relies on the archetypal thoughts versus feelings debate, with both Yukimura and Himura attempting to explain their feelings through scientific means and analyse it. How they approach this though through their ‘experiments’ is incredibly ridiculous as whilst their methodology would work for a normal science experiment, in these circumstances they just come across as ridiculous.

    Despite the emphasis on both of the protagonist’s intelligence, they appear to have very little in the way of romantic experience and so the interactions between the two are awkward and played more for laughs than emotional intensity. Himuro, perhaps stereotypically as the female of the pair, seems to be the one acting more like a typically smitten female shoujo protagonist, blushing constantly. Yukimura seems mostly unaffected and much more interested in the science behind the situation but funnily enough, doesn’t appear to reject Himuro’s advances. The other students in the lab so far have shown to be much more self-aware and approach matters of the heart in a more “normal” way, further driving the point home as to how alien the whole concept is to the Himuro and Yukimura.

    Animation-wise, the character designs in Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It are quite attractive and colourful, though Himuro, in particular, is depicted in a more fanservice-like way, often focusing on her legs and chest. There are lots of little in-jokes and nods to science throughout which might amuse people who are also interested in the field but it doesn’t alienate viewers who are just along for the ride.

    Overall, this is a fun comedy show with a speckling of romance throughout, but don’t expect it to be taken seriously any time soon. Primarily, this is going to be a show where the characters make or break it and there are still a few characters of the main cast left to introduce. Enjoyable to watch, but the jokes may get old after a while if it carries on the same routine of Himuro and Yukimura misunderstanding things.

    Kila trained as a librarian and consequently reads far too many books. In their spare time, they work on writing fantasy novels but inevitably get distracted by planning dnd campaigns instead. Anime and cosplay are a passion of theirs, and they can often be found yelling at video games or their sewing machine.
