![]() There is plot in Yamada-kun besides the wacky hijinks, but it only comes out in the second half of the show as the primary cast tries to identify all seven witches that exist at their school. The result is that Yamada-kun tends to have more kissing per episode than most anime have their entire run. When other witches are introduced, it becomes apparent that each of them have different powers that are activated by kissing. Though Yamada himself appears to be straight, he (eventually) doesn’t have an issue with kissing guys if he thinks the situation demands it. ![]() The voice actors and animators have a great time with this, and it’s generally pretty easy to figure out who is currently in whose body based on their performance.īecause the kiss to body swap works on anyone, this also means that there is a lot of kissing across gender lines and crazy scenes where Yamada is demanding someone kiss him because he needs to control them for some reason. The fun explodes as more people figure out their secret and tests are performed to figure out the full extent of the body swapping ability, and yes, it can be daisy-chained, with Yamada switching to whoever he kisses regardless of whose body he is currently in, and switching his new host to the body he was formerly occupying (which can be a third party entirely). They decide to take advantage of that with Shiraishi taking tests in Yamada’s place and Yamada (as Shiraishi) getting her out of her shell so she has a social life. Though they’re two students who otherwise wouldn’t give each other the time of day, Shiraishi and Yamada quickly figure out what happened, and that they switch bodies when they kiss. After waking up he discovers they’ve switched bodies, and she’s actually run off and gone back to class in his body so she doesn’t miss lecture. That changes one day when he literally falls onto honor student Urara Shiraishi, who holds the highest grades in their class. Ryu Yamada is a high school delinquent, known for getting into fights, coming to school late, leaving early, and failing in class. It’s not my personal fantasy.īut that’s not what Yamada-kun is about at all. I didn’t watch Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches during its initial run in Spring 2015 because I saw the title and key art, and it looked like a harem show to me.
