Where to Watch Adachi and Shimamura in the UK

Adachi and Shimamura makes every episode count, and right now it's all streaming on Crunchyroll and beyond. A strong pick for any comedy fan.

Originally commissioned by TBS, Adachi and Shimamura quickly became exactly the kind of show that viewers rearrange their evenings for. Adachi spends her school days skipping class until she meets fellow delinquent Shimamura and the two become fast friends. Cutting class together deepens their friendship but soon unexpected emotions blossom. As awkwardness and confusion settle in, the two girls travel this sea of emotions without a paddle as they learn about each other’s feelings. It aired in 2020.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh rather than just smile politely, Adachi and Shimamura is a strong candidate — fans of KJ File will recognise the sensibility immediately. It works alone or with company.
