Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie
2022
Amane lives alone in an apartment, and the most beautiful girl in school, Mahiru, lives just next door. They've almost never spoken—until the day he sees her in distress on a rainy day and lends her his umbrella. To return the favour, she offers him help around the house, and a relationship slowly begins to blossom as the distance between them closes…
Meet the AngelJan 7, 2023 · 24m · ★ 8.0Amane Fujimiya, a socially awkward first-year high school student living alone, encounters his beautiful neighbor Mahiru Shiina, who is often referred to as an "angel" by their peers. After lending her his umbrella during a rainstorm, Amane catches a cold, prompting Mahiru to care for him, leading to the development of their unique relationship.
Dinner with the AngelJan 14, 2023 · 24m · ★ 7.5On the way home from school, Amane finds Mahiru stuck with a sprained foot after rescuing a cat in a tree. He performs first aid and then carries her home. The next day, Mahiru brings Amane a container of food as thanks, and Amane accidentally blurts out something he has been thinking: "I'd love to eat it freshly made sometime." As a result, the two agree on conditions that will allow them to share fresh-cooked dinners in Amane's apartment. When Amane stuffs his face while praising Mahiru's "delicious" cooking, it isn't hard to imagine the two as a newlywed couple...
Reward for the AngelJan 21, 2023 · 24m · ★ 7.6Amane's mother, Shihoko, arrives at the apartment without warning while Mahiru is visiting. Amane asks Mahiru to hide, but Shihoko eventually finds her, and the two neighbors frantically try to correct Shihoko's assumption that they are dating. Nonetheless, Mahiru is touched by Shihoko's motherly kindness. After Amane sees how happy Mahiru is to be called by her first name, he tries calling her "Mahiru" too. From that day on, the neighbors call each other by their first names.
The Angel in the ChristmasJan 28, 2023 · 24m · ★ 7.3When Itsuki and Chitose visit Amane's apartment for a Christmas party only to discover that the angel Mahiru lives next door, they instantly become very curious about the relationship. Chitose, obsessed with cuteness, insists on becoming friends with Mahiru. The day after Christmas, Amane notices that Mahiru has a fever. Despite Mahiru's stubbornness, Amane convinces her to stay and rest in his room. When Mahiru sees Amane so diligently taking care of her as if returning the favor she did for him that one memorable day, it seems to put her at ease.
Hatsumode With the AngelFeb 4, 2023 · 24m · ★ 7.4Mahiru and Amane ring in the new year together. When the exhaustion from cooking catches up with Mahiru and she falls asleep in Amane's arms, Amane has no choice but to let her stay the night in his bed. The sight of her sleeping peacefully but totally unguarded gives him a bit of a jolt. Two days later, Amane's parents come to visit. When the four go to Hatsumode (the first shrine visit of the year), Amane is taken aback by how pretty Mahiru looks in a kimono. Meanwhile, Mahiru keeps blushing at the sight of Amane dressed up so handsomely.
A Gift From the AngelFeb 11, 2023 · 24m · ★ 7.0On Valentine's Day, after the two neighbors eat dinner together as usual, Mahiru gives Amane some hot chocolate. Amane accepts it as a normal Valentine's Day gift, but Mahiru seems restless, as if she has something to tell him. When Mahiru rushes home, still unable to say what's on her mind, Amane notices a small bag with a card at his front door. Inside the bag are chocolates that Mahiru made especially for Amane, who had said that he doesn't like very sweet things. In return, Amane gives Mahiru a special present on White Day.

This is a medicine for the heart. The story develops gracefully at a slow pace and stays focused on the two main characters. The writing and voice-acting are wholesome, mildly sweet, and soothing. There's light touches of comedy, tension, and sadness that help to add color and balance. I'd prescribe no more than 1-2 episodes each evening, right before bed, for a peaceful sleep. And I recommend watching episodes 11 & 12 together. _"Angel" is truly amazing, for reasons only Amane knows._
