Bokurano is a classic case of adaptation decay. Every one of these anime should first be checked for a manga version because adaptations are almost always worse - read the books.
If it's an original series made for anime it's typically a lot better than nearly every adapted show.
I'll push back on that and say that there was one episode in particular that was handled far better in the anime than its counterpart in the manga, specifically the episode with the fat kid and how he handled himself.
Bokurano hits you like a fucking truck. It is a criminally underrated work. I would say more but I really want people to experience it for themselves.
