Summary: * Based on a light novel series by Hirasaka Yomi with illustrations by Buriki.

Hasegawa Kodaka, a half-Japanese/half-British boy, has recently transferred to a Catholic High School, St. Chronica's Academy, and as always, finds it impossible to make friends there due to his naturally blond hair, inherited from his dead English mother, which makes him look like a dangerous delinquent to his prejudiced peers. One day after school, he enters the classroom witnessing the equally solitary and very abrasive girl Mikazuki Yozora while she speaks to her Imaginary Friend Tomo. They decide that the best way to improve their social situation is to form a club - the Rinjinbu (Neighbour's Club) - just to make friends and learn social skills.

Five other members soon join, starting with the school's well-connected and arrogant idol Kashiwazaki Sena, who has many male admirers but no female friends due to jealousy. Kusunoki Yukimura, a girl pretending to be a boy, who idealises and follows Kodaka in the hope that it will teach her to become manlier. Kobato, Kodaka's younger sister who is attending St. Chronica's middle school division and has a penchant for darkness, vampires and the macabre ever since she started watching an anime called Full Metal Necromancer. Shiguma Rika, a perverted underclassman and well-known scientific genius, who speaks in the third person and was saved by Kodaka during a failed experiment, thereafter trying to repay him with sex. And finally Takayama Maria, a precocious 10-year-old teacher and nun at the academy, who becomes the club adviser.

I have to admit despite being the a typical harem anime with all the girls fawning over the main male lead I found this thoroughly enjoyable.
The use of making a anime based on people who have difficulty finding or making friends was a refreshing experience towards what is constantly portrayed in the media as it gave it a more realistic view towards life and making friends then the idolised view of being a social butterfly. Also it follows the steady stages of meeting people and as they become acquaintances to close friends. Even before they realise it :)

I noticed that the use of sexual references was also difference compared to common ecchi/harem anime as the characters embrace their sexuality and talk about it openly. Simply because of this, I must say it had some great dialogue! I loved this about the anime, because I rarely come across this in any anime or manga.

Animation is the typical bishoujo style, great colours and composition.

Extremely entertaining in some areas, however some let downs because in some episodes it was obvious what was going to happen next, the ending was somewhat disappointing, it felt rushed.

Regardless of that, it is defiantly a watch for people who understand the realistic views of making friends in the real world. People can be prejudice simply because of what you look like or what social status you belong to. But its great anyway if your merely just looking for something cute and fluffy to waste some hours on :)
