Underrated Anime to Watch This Week

I recommend Asobi Asobase - Workshop of Fun, which has an impressive score of 8.19 on MAL, for its unpredictable humor and quirky characters that will have you laughing out loud. The story follows three middle school girls as they form “Pastime Club”, but their games quickly turn into absurd and hilarious chaos. If you're into comedy with a unique twist, this one’s for you! [Synopsis in the title].
