A worthy addition to any animation fan’s collection, Hyouka is a stunning masterwork that spins a charming tale of high school romance and mystery. After disenchanted student Hotaro Oreki joins his school’s Classic Literature Club, he meets Eru Chitanda, a kind-hearted and inquisitive girl with boundless curiosity and a knack for getting him caught up in all sorts of trouble.

A nice unpretentious high school story spiced up with the solving of various mysteries. The mysteries weren't anything surprising, but that's not the point of this anime. Rather, it's that four different people got together, had an effect on each other, and without realizing it, really started to change (grow up?) subtly and view the world a little differently. Strangely enough, the viewer was able to see this, by which I mean that the filmmakers managed to capture it well. On the other hand, we can see more character development in the boys, and the girls are not very much involved in the series from that perspective. Rather, Oreki and Fukube are there as a lubricant for a change. But it's still pretty fun on the whole. The OST wasn't exceptional, for me it falls under the "forgettable" column. The animation was pleasing, the characters not particularly annoying, the story not particularly overcomplicated or so simple as to annoy the viewer. A nice 3 stars. ()
