Synopsis

Forgetting their wallet, listening to music from a speaker on the train, fixing the glasses position even though wearing eye contact, not realizing it’s a bendable straw and inserting it backward, carrying a shoehorn mistaking it to be an umbrella…

Even such clumsy behaviour can be played cool, that is “Play It, Cool Guys“. Their daily lives are arranged in 15 minutes and have 2 cours.

Vina Nurziani (The Indonesian Anime Times)

The story is about the daily life of four clumsy guys. But while they’re clumsy, their calm demeanour makes them cool. Their individual clumsiness, how they thought about it, and how they dealt with it, were portrayed in a unique way for each character and at a pace that is easy to follow. The difference in perception between how they see themselves and how other people see them is so endearing. Furthermore, I didn’t expect the animation of the opening and ending  songs are so cute. Definitely a serial that fills your dosage of gap moe!
