# Where to Watch My Little Monster

**My Little Monster turns a guarded honor student's unwanted social detour into a romance full of blunt confessions and messy reactions. Crunchyroll carries the finished TV series, which was also released as Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun. The 2012 season has 13 episodes, each about 24 minutes, so it is a compact watch rather than a long commitment. Its comedy depends on how differently Shizuku and Haru approach school, friendship, and affection. Neither has the polish to make courtship look easy, and their impulsive exchanges give the sweeter scenes some bite. This is a good pick for viewers who prefer romantic friction and awkward honesty to an idealized love story.**

## Synopsis

Shizuku Mizutani keeps her attention on studying and sees relationships with classmates as distractions. When an ordinary errand brings her to Haru Yoshida, an often absent student with a troubling reputation, her carefully ordered routine begins to shift. Haru attaches great importance to their new connection almost immediately, while Shizuku has no idea what to do with his intensity or unpredictable behavior. Their encounters draw them into unfamiliar friendships and feelings that resist Shizuku's usual practical approach. The story stays close to their uneven attempts to understand each other, using school life and social discomfort to keep the romance funny without treating its emotions lightly.
