Handa-kun

Handa-kun is a TV comedy and slice-of-life anime produced by diomedéa, adapted from the manga by Yoshino Satsuki. The series follows Sei Handa, a high school student who is unknowingly worshipped as a legend by his entire school—while he himself remains completely oblivious to his own popularity. Directed by Yoshitaka Koyama with series composition by Michiko Yokote, the show masterfully turns everyday school life into a parade of hilarious misunderstandings. Surrounded by devoted classmates like Takao Kawafuji and Reo Nikaido, Sei Handa's daily struggles become the ultimate comedy of errors. If you're looking for a feel-good school comedy packed with laughs, this is the one.

Set in a bustling high school, this slice-of-life comedy centers on Sei Handa, a student blessed with extraordinary calligraphy talent, striking good looks, and an effortlessly cool demeanor. To virtually everyone on campus, he is the undisputed idol—admired, revered, and talked about in hushed, reverent tones. The catch? Sei Handa himself is completely convinced of the opposite. Every admiring glance, every enthusiastic approach from a classmate, every whispered conversation nearby—he interprets them all as signs that he is despised and bullied. Trapped inside this profound misunderstanding of his own social standing, he tries his best to keep to himself and avoid drawing attention. The story follows his daily school life as he crosses paths with a colorful cast of characters, from fashion models to reclusive delinquents to devoted fangirls, each encounter shaped by the enormous gap between how others see him and how he sees himself.
