## Season 1

### Soundtrack

The opening was pretty good. The arrangement reminded me a lot of Persona 5's OST, specifically from the violins. A very upbeat song overall.

The credits were better than the opening, in my opinion. It was a really nice song with a really nice flow overall. The vocals were also really good. It's a really chill song. I will definitely be adding it to my playlist.

### Thoughts

This is a show where nothing happens. That may sound boring to most people, and that's because it is. Wash It All Away is an anime about cleaning. Sure, it goes to some depth explaining details about cleaning, but it doesn't really interact much with the story. The cleaning aspect mostly serves as a device that moves the plot forward.

The plot is alright. To be honest, I didn't remember much. I can't lie, I almost fell asleep during some episodes. That's because the episodes didn't really connect to eachother, if that makes sense. Yes, there were new and recurring characters, but outside of their own episodes, they weren't really that important. But, if you were to analyze each episode in a vacuum, they're just fine. Nothing out of the ordinary, really.

Wash It All Away has some decent animation. Sometimes, there are standout scenes, but they're quite rare. I'd like to talk about the fan service though. There's quite a lot of fan service in this anime, mainly centering around Kinme. Most of the time, it doesn't feel forced, like the scenes in the bathhouse, or scenes at her house. One instance of it being forced is the modeling episode, though. Honestly, that was a low point of the anime. It was basically an entire episode filled with fan service.

Overall, Wash It All Away is just a cozy do-nothing anime. You're supposed to really turn your brain off. It's kind of like brain nourishment. It's boring because it needs to be boring to be watchable. I give this anime a 7, because it's watchable. It's definitely Mid-Slop, though. I wouldn't recommend this anime to anyone.
