The first season of We Never Learn: BOKUBEN has landed on Crunchyroll and Hulu, complete with English dub and subtitles. The series follows Nariyuki Yuiga, a student from a poor family striving for a scholarship that requires him to tutor three academic prodigies—a math whiz aiming for the arts, a literature ace pursuing science, and an athletic prodigy who struggles with academics—in subjects that inexplicably baffle them.
Produced by Arvo Animation, this romantic comedy adapts Tsutsui Taishi's manga. It currently holds a 7.26 rating on MyAnimeList from over 246,000 voters, reflecting its status as a popular, if not top-tier, entry in the harem and school comedy genres. The humor often relies on the irony of geniuses struggling with specific subjects and the resulting chaotic, slapstick situations during tutoring sessions.
This initial 13-episode run establishes the core premise and introduces the main cast, setting the stage for further romantic developments and comedic escalations. The central premise of Nariyuki guiding his exceptionally talented but oddly specialized pupils provides ample opportunity for absurd scenarios and developing romantic tension.
For viewers interested in continuing the story, a direct sequel, We Never Learn: BOKUBEN Season 2, is available. The complete first season is now streamable, allowing fans to catch up on Nariyuki's tutoring misadventures.
