Yuu Osawa is fascinated with transfer student Koizumi-san. Koizumi is a quiet but glamourous girl with an obsession for ramen noodles. She doesn't just eat them at a favourite noodle restaurant; instead she seeks out an assortment of styles and flavours from various parts of the country. Yuu follows her and starts eating more ramen herself; she also tries to befriend Koizumi but she isn't interested; she tolerates Yuu but declines invitations to join her at specific restaurants.

On paper this series doesn't sound that promising with so much time dedicated to talking about the delights of and differences between various types of ramen it could easily feel more like an advert than real entertainment... strangely it is actually a lot of fun; certainly much better than I expected. Koizumi is a good guide to the various types of ramen and Yuu is an amusing character. The animation is pretty good. Overall this is worth watching if you are looking for some gentle fun and no real action... if you are in Tokyo and looking for somewhere to eat noodles it might give you some ideas as the establishments visited are apparently real.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

So I found out about this anime from Gigguk who was discussing about food appearing on anime in which he thinks they are more appealing than real life. I agree to disagree, it really depends on the food and how it's presented in all honesty.

I tell ya the different types of ramen that appeared on the anime, except for the pineapple flavour, made my mouth water. If you are a big ramen fan or a newb to ramen like I am, indulge yourself bois to this anime!

The story isn't particularly elaborate. It tells the story of a ramen-obsessed girl who is being stalked by her lustful classmate. And quite helpful? Information about the history of ramen and the best ways to eat it.

I would say extremely well, but more so in the way the story is brought to life through the ramen. From the color and texture of the broth and noodles to the accompanying side dishes, every ramen dish is unique from the others.

The reason for this is that it gives you the impression that you are at any restaurant Koizumi, where classmates are enjoying a bowl or two of ramen. They also generate a mouthwatering sound both during and after eating a bowl of ramen. Additionally, I really enjoy listening to the lovely tune that is included in the sections that get a little sentimental.

Since Koizumi is the primary character and the one who eats bowl after bowl of ramen, I enjoy her cool, carefree demeanor. She was crafted to truly stand out in the story. The other characters are merely there to add flair and distinguish Koizumi from the other characters in the program. They are pretty simple to understand.

I constantly hunt for anything ramen-like to eat while or after watching each episode of Ramen Daisuki Koizumi san since I really loved watching all 12 of the episodes. So if you want to binge-watch this anime, please consider this a warning.

Regarding the aforementioned statement, I think it has successfully achieved its goal of making us want, understand, and adore ramen-one of the foods that Japan is known for!
