| This definitely has a somewhat more unique premise compared to other anime this season, mainly the invisible character Tounome. Ironically, this literally can't be called a 'love at first sight' for Shizuka because she's blind but she seems to develop feelings for Tounome in the opening episode. Also interesting is that there's all kinds of races in their society, in a modern world than some isekai fantasy. Lot of potential here for character development and storytelling. |

| Blind characters in anime are pretty rare, and an invisible guy is just as rare, maybe even rarer lol. It definitely makes for a really interesting duo. The world itself seems cool too. Besides the invisible man ofc, we also met that furry later in the episode. Could see a lot of them in the background as well. Its a very interesting and unique world we have here, that's for sure Anyway, I’m glad we get to watch their relationship grow slowly. The title made me think it’d start with them already together, so I’m glad it looks like it’ll develop over time. I really hope they play around with the detective angle here and there too, it could actually be interesting instead of the usual generic detective stuff. But honestly, if it just ends up being sweet, comfy romance, I’m totally fine with that too. Fun and sweet, and hey visuals don't even look too bad for a Project No.9 show. |

| Mangaka Iwatobineko's series is quite the interesting plot of a human wife and her human husband...whom the latter is invisible? The gentle woman Shizuka Yakou, alongside her invisible gentleman Akira Tounome both working in the same detective agency, they have a couple energy that's more intimate than ever. Alongside their rather interesting colleagues whom some are anthropomorphic as well, this agency is quite the interesting place to develop a rom-com of all things between Shizuka and Akira, other than handling clients of all sorts. For sure, it's an interesting workplace where all things come alive...even romance? It'll be a fun watch. |

| What a sweet and cute opening to a very unique show this should be a great watch. |
| AWAWAWAWA THEY'RE HERE :3 I thought Tounome's voice would be deeper, but the one he has now fits him so well and sounds really charming. He's seriously one of the most gentlemanly characters ever. His mannerisms, the way he speaks, everything about him is so charming! And that's already the case even when he's an invisible man. Oh my god. Yakou is just as cute as I imagined!! So adorable and precious. While everyone else was surprised that an invisible man could get hurt (because they can't see him but they can see the blood), Yakou was just worried about Tounome's condition :'3 It's so sweet. The invisible man can only be seen by the blind girl. They're truly husband and wife. |

| Wholesomely cute with a unique twist. Shaping up to be another good season for slice of enjoyer. |

| What a beautiful romance that was ! An odd and lovely couple. Shizuka is so cute and Tounome is an invisible gentleman and it's really quite rare iykwim. Watching them really puts a smile on my face. |

I already imagine if their children are both blind and invisible at the same time, that means they can't see anyone and no one can see them, that'd be quite a harsh life.
| @phantomfandom hard to imagine 😭😭 |
| SUCH A CUTE FIRST SIX MINUTES!!! :D This anime is so immediately and unrelentingly adorable, what the hell! 😭 And the lynx gal's fun too. :)  |

| That was quite cute. For some reason I was expecting this to be creepy, glad it isn't. |

| Its good Adult, thoughtful, sensitive, MMC who can communicate with women. Whod'a thunk it's possible? FMC adult, shy with some courage aand decently in touch with her own feelings. good enough They eschew the obvious trite trope blind girl not knowing the BF was invisible. good Some world building with fantasy species so they do not have to contrive and weird accident that made the MMC invisible. good idea. |

| I think the premise is very unique, and the interactions are very cute,,, but I genuinely think it would be better if each episode was about 4-5minutes long. |
 why am i plagued with furry jokes everywhere I go |
| After his legendary wrestling career, he decided to be a detective and work with a cute blind girl! More seriously, I like this first episode and this point of originality, I hope this is going to captivate my curiosity for more than one episode! |

| Ahhh this is so cozy and cute! Three seasons in a row we’ve had workplace romance stories and this is definitely the most interesting premise of the bunch. Yako being blind and Tounome being invisible ensures their romance won’t be shallow or superficial, they’re going to fall in love with each other’s souls 😭 I’m so here for this, plus some nice disability representation! “I can tell what kind of person you are anyway” you can really tell Tounome’s probably been through a LOT in his life being invisible, but the irony is the girl who can’t see at all has made him feel seen more than ever. This is such an interesting dynamic. They’re both sweethearts too, I can’t wait to see their next date! |

| Here's an interesting thing invisibility works because light can't reflect of you right that's why you're invisible. Lights are ignoring you or just passing through your body if that's true then light can't reflect of your cornea in the eye or pass through it which means you can't see light either in other words if you are invisible you're blind too is that insane lol. Cute anime, but they really didn't do the whole blind person aspect justice. I've seen a few other series with that element and they show/explain a lot of details this one completely missed. Small things like him handing her a cup of steaming hot tea - that'll burn her since she doesn't know where to reach. |
| So this is a really interesting anime mainly because of the cast, a blind human girl, a invisible guy (Human probably), A beastfolk women and a fairly well built dude all working at what looks like a detective agency. Other than the obvious being im curious how they take the romance im curious how far they stretch the limits of what kinds of beings will be in the show because in one episode they already took it further then most anime with a world like this downright adding full blown aliens. Props to the author/the people behind the show for making a invisible dudes movements look so fluid and drawn correctly without it looking different from a normal persons movements, that's quite impressive if you ask me. Though I suppose you could just draw the dude out and then just erase all his limbs from the drawing. I think this show has massive potential personally in all sorts of regards. Shizuka and Akira have a really cute dynamic, based of the name of the show I presume they'll get together fairly quickly. I will say it makes me wonder how blind people tell the time, since Shizuka had a watch on her wrist which buzzed so I guess thats how? But like idk how that works really, I mean obviously she could just ask someone and track it from there but like what if she had no one to ask? Amazing first episode |
| good episode they were cute I was wondering how they will adapt the small stories... |

| @Daviljoe193 Is she a Lnyx or a striped Hyena? Oh well, it doesn't really matter. |
| This is just as cute as I thought it would be. Its funny seeing her panic and blush. Plus the main two voices are ones Ive not heard before so thats always a plus especially when I keep hearing the same voices in main roles. I will say its really interesting to see how she as a blind person gets on, like the tools she uses such as the watch where when she presses it it'll buzz in (What Im assuming is) morse code. Plus the world seems unique with all the different races. Very similar to the ice guy and cool girl series. This series is gonna be 50% adorable romance and 50% finding out her lifestyle as a blind person and Im here for it. |

| First ep was very cute! Can’t wait to see the elf couple and a certain boyfriend in the next episodes. In the manga Tounome is very dreamy, hope they can achieve that in the anime as well. |

| @Ego_Altar She sees him better than anyone else. Too bad she seems like she's 12 or something. The fact that she acts like an overemphasized young anime character and the rest act like normal people makes this even worse. |
| Wow this anime is very cute, Yako being blind and Tounome being invisible is a cool match for romance. I love all the different species of humans, monsters, kemono, and aliens too. Already can't wait to see how their love evolves in the next episode. |
Wow!
Just super cute! |

| Shizuka is so sweet and adorable the romance is good, the only flaw seems to be the beastfolk and alien thing like the anime could have been more mature and nice if it was only the invisible man, the beastfolk thing makes it kinda cringy and childish than mature office romance. Still the 1st ep was actually good if the beastfolk thing isn't a concern for anyone else. |

| Sweet and cute start, I’m not sure if I see myself really getting into this but I'll see. The worldbuilding is interesting though, with so many different species walking around—even aliens, which was kind of funny. The art and animation also look pretty good. Also, this is the first time I’ve seen a duo made up of a blind person and an invisible person, and it looks like some romance might be coming into play as well. I'm rooting for those two. |
  |
| As a manga reader, I’m so overjoyed they finally animated this series. Absolute peak wholesomeness awaits us this season. |
