I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying

    Have you ever found a series that is just a joy to watch? A series that exceeds immediately, and just keeps getting better? Well the series I am blogging about today is just that.
    I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying is about a young married couple and the events in their lives. Kaoru (the wife) is an office worker, and is married to Hajime (the husband) who is an otaku/NEET (if you don't know what these terms mean then good for you) who makes a living blogging. This series is short, but extremely sweet, owing to that each episode is about three and a half minutes in length, this length however ties perfectly to how the story goes. Each episode is a single event/period of time (in no particular order I might add) where some part of relationships is involved (e.g., having kids, growing old). While there is no "main" storyline, each episode is extremely effective in delivering its content clearly to the viewer. There are two main sources of comedy: relationship-related, and otaku-husband-related. The relationship-related comedy is pretty standard, but the otaku-husband-related is actually quite unique in that it references numerous medias which it was in direct competition with when it was showing. This type of comedy is sure to evoke some laughs, but is also a risky strategy because you might end up giving the competition some of your viewers (therefore most series avoid this strategy). I would recommend this series for anyone who is in a serious relationship and/or is a giant nerd.
