A follow-up to the previous anime post
Sanrio Danshi (Sanrio Boys) finally premiered on January 6th after teasers from last year.
The first episode revolves mostly around Kouta Hasegawa's backstory of being gifted a Pompompurin plushy by his grandmother...
After being ridiculed by kids for showing love for the plushy, he starts to feel ashamed and angry, and then begins to ignore his grandmother. When it becomes #toolatetoapologize, Kouta's grandmother passes away and leaves him guilty.
Years pass and now in high school, he meets a couple of classmates who share the same interest in Sanrio characters. This may be the #community he always needed.
Meet the main characters that were properly introduced so far:
(Pompompuri stan, 2nd year)
(My Melody stan, 2nd year)
(Hello Kitty stan, 2nd year)
(Cinnamoroll stan, 3rd year)
Kouta finds a My Melody key chain and figures it would belong to Yuu.
Shunsuke is a pal of Yuu's and is quite protective.
Kouta also meets the president Seiichirou and gets a little flusteredT.
RIP Grandmother
