About SANRIO BOYS

Looking for background on SANRIO BOYS (サンリオ男子)? This drama and slice of life series by Studio Pierrot (2018) starts out like this. In short: The project's premise follows Kouta Hasegawa, a high school boy that loves the yellow Pom Pom Purin dog. By mere coincidence, he ends up attending the same school as Yuu Mizuno, a boy who likes the bunny My Melody.

Beyond that: Yuu tells Kouta that there's nothing to be ashamed of for liking Sanrio's cute characters. Together, Kouta, Yuu, Shunsuke Yoshino, Ryou Nishimiya, and Seiichiro Minamoto learn to accept their love of the characters instead of feeling embarrassed.

In a drama series like this, character writing and emotional payoff matter more than spectacle. This one is best suited to viewers who prefer story and feelings over flashy action. With 12 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
