Cute show with tons of character growth
We Are Worse at Love than Pandas is fun, cute, heartwarming, and filled with character growth. Shibata Ichiha is trying to find her way as a worker at a magazine company when they get a new tough and straightforward editor in chief Fujisaki. Ichiha is tasked to write articles for a model she worshipped when growing up named Aria, who she finds to be extremely cold and unwilling to help. By chance, Aria's assistant introduces Ichiha to Professor Shido, who has absolutely zero interest in human relationships, but ask him about any animal and he will happily give you a fun lecture on their behaviour.
The base of the show deals with Ichiha gathering material to write romance articles on and the once very famous model Aria to get the credit. Ichiha struggles to understand the types of romantic issues as she herself is in a poor relationship, but gains unexpected help from Professor Shido who ends up helping as Ichiha relates animal courtship (QI code as it is referred to in the show). One charm is how well some of the human issues are, they are simple relationship problems that have these fun animal courtship-related solutions/advice for. With each issue solved, Ichiha, and her friends all end up learning and maturing from the lessons. Nobody is evil, it's about overcoming obstacles, and all the main characters and support characters are involved.
Ichiha is absolutely the heart of the show. Professor Shido is at first the comedic relief but even he has his moments. Aria as well has a great storyline to follow throughout.
This show overall is a comedic, heartwarming, and light on romance show that focuses on how we as humans may complicate our relationship issues, and looking at our animal friends may simplify how we solve them.
