Apr 11, 2014 Azalonozul Recommended "Dust in her eye? I'm gonna kill it!" - Hakuya Mitsumine. Over the last few years, Rom-coms have become stale; the violent tsundere, a harem, the childhood friend, unrequited love, all of the shows seem to have these itsy-bitsy things. As such, the comedy becomes stale, they become increasingly dull to watch and you automatically know what is going to come next. But not with Mikakunin de Shinkoukei. Mikakunin de shinkoukei is REALLY unpredictable. It drops the bomb on huge things like it's no big deal and makes a big deal ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 27, 2014 badgerkins Recommended Engaged to the Unidentified generated very little hype coming into its season, being an adaptation of a relatively unheard of manga. So how exactly did it catch my attention when one glance of the line-up for the season had other shows I could of better invest my time with? Was it the cover image of three adorable looking girls in seifuku which called to me? Possibly... Actually, that was most definitely the case. C'mon, let's be honest; what other reason could there be and please don't tell me the synopsis had you brimming with optimism. I'm willing to give anything a chance as long as ...

Mar 27, 2014 SkyNoHoshi Recommended This is, perhaps, the first slice of life anime series to finish in this winter season. And Dogakobo had, yet again, brought out another good anime for us to watch. When I watched the first episode of Mikakunin de Shinkoukei, I thought that it would have a great story and I felt that it would be the best romcom anime for the season. But unfortunately, I wasn’t finding that expectation I wanted. Here’s why. The story revolved around the Yonomori sisters, Kobeni and Benio, and the Mitsumine siblings, Hakuya and Mashiro. Akane, who is the Yonomori sisters’ mom, announced that Kobeni was somewhat engaged to Hakuya by ... Read more Open Gift Report
Dec 25, 2014 _Otaku_31 Recommended I have watched 47 anime shows (completed) and I never really bothered to write reviews. However, Mikakunin de Shinkoukei lit a spark in me. Inspired me to write about it, I suppose. ~Story~ (9/10) Nowadays the typical idea for manga is that the characters suddenly meet. I got used to that and honestly, that was what I was expecting. However, in this case it is different. 16 year olds Hakuya and Kobeni find themselves caught in an arranged marriage. It was set up by Kobeni's deceased grandfather. As some shows do: Hakuya moves in with Kobeni. He has ... Read more Open Gift Report
Oct 8, 2014 Mnemofysh Recommended Ugh, romantic comedies. They are usually a mix of romance, slice of life and, of course, comedy. I’m not a particular fan of any of theses genres, as Romeo x Juliet, Yuyushiki, and a number of other anime have successfully proven to me. If I dislike all these genres, why on Earth would I like something that is a combination of all three? The pleasant surprise of Chu-2 gave me hope for rom-coms, however, and I’m pleased to say that Mikakunin de Shinkoukei held up my expectations. MdS is about a girl called Kobeni, who on her sixteenth birthday is suddenly told that she is engaged ... Read more Open Gift Report
Dec 5, 2014 Verethragna_XIII Recommended hmm, since this is my first time to create a review of an anime, it might as well be an anime that I enjoyed! "Papapara♪ papa♪ oh-oh♪ papapara♪ pa♪ yeah-yeah♪!" "Mikakunin de Shinkoukei" or in English " Engaged to the Unidentified" at first glance this might be another romantic comedy about a girl who just turned 16 years old and suddenly she was informed that she had a fiance that will be living with her but I'm gonna tell you in advance, DO NOT JUDGE AN ANIME BY ITS SYNOPSIS or the first 4 episode (it’s one of my golden rule). You will be surprised at ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 14, 2014 FireKiller87 Recommended Mikakunin de Shinkoukei is a slice of life romantic comedy that only recently aired, didn't receive much attention and is adapted from a lesser-known manga. The story follows the daily life and escapades of Kobeni Yonomori and her family. Many of the scenes are your typical high school slice ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 27, 2014 PyraXadon Recommended HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KOBENI! Every girl dreams of their sweet 16th. (I'm only assuming here.) And so, what better way to celebrate your entry into womanhood...by giving you a brand new, totally unexpected and uncalled for, fiance and sister-in-law as a present! Today, the anime is Mikakunin de Shinkoukei, or, Engaged to the Unidentified in english translation. Let's begin. Story (7.31/10): The story is essentially what I had in my intro. Our main protagonist Kobeni, who has reached the age of 16, has now received a fiance by the name of Hakuya, and a sister in law by the name ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 20, 2015 monkeyMan9 Recommended The show centers around our main character, Kobeni Yonomori, a 16 year old at the start of the series when she finds out that she has been engaged to a boy from the mountains. Thus later that day the boy, who looks considerably older than Kobeni, and his sister, who looks more like an 8 year old drop by. Kobeni's mother, who for the rest of the series is less than a supporting character, tells her that her grandfather , long dead now, engaged them when she was very little. What follows in the next few episodes is how, Kobeni handles this news, and how ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 31, 2014 Growler Recommended When something hits you in the face there is nothing you can do except wipe your face and keep going. The same trick applies to facts, you cannot change them once they have occured, you can only accept them and move forward. Mikakunin de Shinkoukei follows the story of Kobeni a normal girl with fairly good grades from the point where she is told out of the blue that she is engaged to some guy she does not know named Hakuya. She is worried at first about her future, yet slowly she begins accepting her situation as well as her new guests through a series of ... Read more Open Gift Report
May 22, 2014 appido Recommended I stumbled upon this show the other day and marathoned through it in a couple hours, something I usually don't do unless I really like the show. Mikakunin de Shinkoukei is pretty much your typical rom com but it's fairly well done. It's not mentioned in the genre tags but there are supernatural elements which gives this rom com a little more flare. Story: While the plot is sort of generic and has been done a million times before, this series handled it differently than other shows which made it a bit more interesting. Basically, a girl turns 16 and a mysterious guy shows up on ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 26, 2014 Milkeh Recommended Mikakunin de Shinkoukei, or Engaged to the Unidentified is a Slice of Life, Romance-Comedy anime that was slated in Winter 2014. At a glance, Mikakunin seems to be another generic show out of thousands released by Japan's animation industry, with your cliché main character living under the same roof with the opposite sex and hilarities ensue. But what the show provided is a decent slice of life with an awkward romance of two species. To start, the show's story is generic, it plays the tired living under the same roof trope that a lot of shows has done. Even its catch, which can be seen in ... Read more Open Gift Report

May 14, 2018 nhmksstk Recommended Before I start talking about my opinion I need to say I am kinda biase to this show so don't read if you hate biase comment or my life long story. First of all, I saw the famous "I don't like Sunday" dance or gif since long long time ago. It is also one of the most "brainwashing" dance from anime. Thus, I wanted to watch this since very long ago. However, due to insufficient info I am not able to find out the name of the anime (although I once found out but I don't have time at the moment and by the time I am ... Read more Open Gift Report
May 6, 2014 DramaticalEdge Recommended I wasn't sure I would like this show, in all honesty. I happened upon it by chance, and with nothing else to do decided to give it a swing. In the end, I couldn't stop watching it till I had finished every episode, the process of which may have upset my non-anime-loving family members (in short, my whole family). The thing most intriguing about this show is it is not about supernatural abilities and the people who use them, but rather it is about people with abilities and how they live with them. The story plot is short, but carried out well; at no ... Read more Open Gift Report
Oct 19, 2015 Squidlets Recommended The story is dumb, half the characters are unbearable, and the scenarios presented throughout the show are mind-numbingly stupid. 7/10 because I'm a f***ing idiot In all seriousness though, this show managed to keep me smiling through most of the run time despite its shortcomings in general entertainment competency. The presentation is very "cutesy" which made it hard for me to hate the show as much as I should. The opening and ending songs and animations were also very warm and fun to watch. The problems with the story can be forgiven if you just want to turn your brain off, however, the characters cannot and are the ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jul 1, 2020 Sadhoe666 Recommended So, where can I start with this review, truly one of the best romance comedies in a while due to the fact that our protagonist is not a typical harem boy that restrains his feelings, our man is a true Chad and that pays out beautifully. The story is really interesting and you'll be always at the edge of your seat because this series actually knows how to implement twist, they never feel like it's there just because and they actually follow up on every detail added very well, we can see the intent of the writers on making this a love story with a lots ...

May 25, 2021 LUakaPAIN Recommended And this series was extremely admirable, but also extremely dubious. However, there are no answers to many of the questions in this series. I wish I could see Kobeni and Hakuya's past. Story, Characters, Animation, Soundtrack: Read more Open Gift Report
Aug 18, 2021 yanzinator Recommended you know that insane plot twist you see at the end of an anime that if it wasn't in the end it would force you to watch the next episode immediately but there is no next episode this show has 3 of those and none of them are in the last episode you know that dumb cliffhanger at the end of the season that makes you want the next episode immediately but now you have to wait 2 years this show has the twice and neither are on the lastt episode i dont feel incomplete after watching it and the ending wasn't cringey as fuck thats impressive Read more Open Gift Report
Feb 3, 2019 SkydiverRed Recommended Engaged to the Unidentified is a sweet and enjoyable slice of life anime about two teenagers who are forced to marry each other due to family circumstances. The boy has a cute loli sister,the girl has an overprotective older sister(who is also a lolicon) and there is another astounding character which I won't spoil. The art quality is fluid and soothing.The openings and endings are forgettable but the voice acting is really great. This anime has a really unexpected twist in the middle(which I obviously won't spoil)which makes it memorable. Overall, I recommend it to all connoisseurs of cuteness(like me).
