For all those who wear their hearts on their sleeves, we have an anime that we think is right up your alley!
Twilight Out of Focus is a new anime that we want to draw attention to because it's so darn cute but super underrated, especially in the world of romance anime shows. Granted, the anime just released on July 4, which may explain the reason why the anime community may not know too much about this anime. However, we want to change that from here on out!
Here's why Twilight Out of Focus needs to be the next anime you stream!
Why you should be watching Twilight Out of Focus
Twilight Out of Focus follows three different love stories between three different pairs. Each pair is vastly different from the other, as each couple consists of individuals who have unique morals and ambitions. Some individuals even clash with one another to the point where you'll think they're better off apart than together.
Nevertheless, love is at the forefront of it all, making this an anime that not only makes your heart swoon but will compel you to go out and find that special person!
Additionally, the characters of this title making a BL (Boys Love) film while being in a BL anime is a pretty neat aspect of the anime that will draw you in further since it will be intriguing to see how this anime explores the common BL tropes while also exploring common BL tropes in their filmmaking process.
Breaking the fourth wall has never looked better!
Here's more on the official synopsis (via Crunchyroll):
"A boys’ school film club is the backdrop for three tales of new romance. Mao and Hisashi pair up for a project, make three promises, and draw closer together in the process. The club president, Jin, and a jealous junior named Giichi clash before finding common ground. Shion, a first-year student, joins the film club in search of a boyfriend and butts heads with Rei—until Rei asks him on a date."
