This is one of the usual Crunchyroll specials I bring to you... Don't Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro
Naoto Hachiouji is a quiet student who spends the majority of his time in his clubs art room practicing. One day while working on his manga in the library he meets Hayase Nagatoro, a loud and relentless teaser. Hayase reads Naoto's manga story, upon seeing how awkward he is, Hayase takes it upon herself to make Naoto her personal play thing, replacing his name and calling him Senpai from there on out.
Much to his annoyance, Hayase's daily tormenting reduces him to feeling embarrassed that she can torture him so mercilessly. But as time goes on, they spend more and more time together. This builds a rather odd and strange friendship between them that is built on teasing and general mischief.
Naoto starts to realise that being around Hayase can actually be a fun experience, and from there friendship and feelings start to become mixed.

Don't Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro is quite an enjoyable series. As is usual for all of Crunchyroll's recommendation's to me, this an enjoyable watch with plenty of lewd viewing and references!
With the subject of art as part of the series, it really attracted me and made me continue on even when I wasn't sure if I would continue.
The topic of bullying is quite frank and frequent in the first half of the season, but please do give it a go and watch it through if you can. The story between the 2 of them builds throughout the bullying/teasing, and can be seen as the story progresses.
The art is very good, the colourings are very good and I enjoy it's all round interesting style. From the more serious character art, then on to the very entertaining and somewhat hilarious antics portrayed by the characters.
On to the music score which is really really REALLYYYYY GOOD!
The chosen music is very fitting throughout and at times is perfect beyond comprehension. I just love all of it and feel I couldn't have found a better score.
There is a second season which I am currently working through at the moment. Once I finish it, I will do a follow up post on that too. So far it is brilliant and adds even more entertainment following on from the first season.
