About Love, Election and Chocolate

Love, Election and Chocolate (恋と選挙とチョコレート) arrives as a drama anime by AIC Build (2012), and the premise is easy to summarize. At its core: In Japan, participation in extra-curricular activities is as fundamental a part of an education as chalk and gym shorts. However, not all students are overachievers, and for those like Yuki Ojima, groups like the Food Research Club are welcome havens in which to slack-off.

Also worth knowing: What's a slacker to do when the radical new candidate for Student Council president announces her intent to get rid of clubs like the FRC? Well, getting the help of the current Learner Council president is a good start, but HIS suggestion is so counter-intuitive that it's crazy: Yuki should run for the Learner Council himself? Yet, it's SO crazy that it just might work!

As a drama title, character writing and emotional payoff matter more than spectacle. Satsuki Shinonome (Yuu Asakawa) and Michiru Morishita (Asami Imai) are two of the characters you will meet early. It will appeal most to viewers who prefer story and feelings over flashy action. At 12 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.
