Chisato Mizusawa is a calm and collected assistant office manager who apparently dislikes drinking alcohol. But she actually likes it and has a secret side to her that emerges only when drunk: her cute persona, which she only reveals to her husband, the bartender Sora. Each day when Chisato comes home, Sora takes care of his beloved wife, providing her with a good meal and a fresh drink. These drinks include Plum Splet, Irish Coffee, Orange Breeze, and many more tasty concoctions that she eagerly gulps down. But as much as she likes alcohol, she loves her kindhearted husband more. Together, they share a life that is filled with happiness—and the more-than-occasional cocktail.

With all the anime this seasonal sparking debates and deep thoughts, I wanted something to watch that would make me feel relaxed. Browsing through the shows I landed upon this one, and what I saw for 40 minutes, did not disappoint me. While others will disagree with me, I genuinely feel that Osake wa Fuufu ni Natte kara is one gem of an anime. A sweet take on the everyday life of a couple will make any depressed or grumpy guy happy. Chistao is a working woman in a company. Pretty, reserved and excellent in her work. Sora, her husband, works in a bar. The anime dealswith Chi-chan being welcomed or treated to a drink by her husband everyday, and the cuteness that un-follows thereafter.
There's not much to think, not much to debate while watching the anime. Just kick back and relax as you see a cute couple still enjoying their days. It's an overall enjoying package and honestly for a 3 minute short with 13 episodes a critical part by part analysis seems foolish.
Chi-chan and Sora are really couple goals. Chisato is for sure my waifu of the season. Her drunk face, her serious face and her face filled with the love for her husband are too damn cute. If only there were cute girls like that in real life(deep sighs of regret).
Rather than reading the many review, go watch it. You will not be disappointed unless you have made up your mind to hate it.
P.S. About the many alcoholic recipes given in the anime, I tried to make a few. It was hard and didn't taste right. Something is best left with the professionals I guess.

Love is Like a Cocktail (AKA: Osake wa Fuufu ni Natte kara) represents everything that’s I hate about the romance genre. Maybe you’ll have more patience for it, but I’m a pretty cynical person by nature so I struggled to not look at it spitefully. The worst issues that plague this show: 1. A man gives woman alcohol for the first time, now she’s an alcoholic. (Great influence! Why not marry him!?!) 2. She marries him to have a personal bartender. (a Hilariously misguided example of romance.) 3. Guy buys his wife with alcohol. (There’s more to love than just substance!) 4. She becomes drunk very easily and throwsherself at him. (Wow nice life lessons!)
5. A "romance" starring adults is written with all the seriousness you'd expect of Umaru-chan.
(If you wanted to make a goofy romance, then alcohol-fueled relationships was not a good choice. It could have easily been a drama if they didn't approach a careful subject like alcoholism with so little care for the gentle subject.)
You can’t teach an audience that a relationship works that way. Love doesn’t and shouldn’t work like that. Alcohol doesn't work like that! When you’re making an anime (watched mostly by kids or young adults) then it’d probably be a good idea to consider your audience.
On top of this show’s egregious issues it also fails to provide a decent watching experience. Despite being only 3 minutes long it is incredibly repetitive, each episode has the same sequence of events and it isn't funny or entertaining. The show has a simple but kind-hearted intentions that just don't come across at all. It wants to be cute and heartwarming but instead it borders on insulting.
Every episode a stressed-out businesswoman, Chisato, is comforted by her husband, Sora, with alcohol and/or food he prepares himself. Chisato and Sora have no chemistry, other than she likes the drinks that he makes and he likes feeding her. There is no spark between them. I wouldn't even believe that they were married if there wasn't an obligatory backstory episode.
Love is Like a Cocktail is just a cooking show (and not a very good one at that) with a seemingly obligatory romance tacked on. Look no further than their undercooked relationship, there's no chemistry!
Their relationship is platonic at best, toxic at worse. No one should take their relationship seriously. This isn't what healthy romance looks like, it's poison and could never exist this happily in real life. Sure, if there were other qualities that Chisato and Sora loved each other for I could see it being more believable. But there are none. The show does not develop them past, a cute tired woman who likes alcohol, and a bartender who likes cute woman.
Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken this is not.
Story 2/10 What story? +1 for a generously brief length.
Art 6/10 Fine. The food and drinks look… edible I guess?
Sound 6/10 Nice ed. The voice acting is ok.
Character 1/10 +1 for the lemon.
Enjoyment 2/10 The lemon was pretty funny.
Overall: 3.0/10
It's bad. Not just for short-form anime. It fails because it doesn't try to create a convincing romance or realistic characters, instead it just forces overbearing cuteness onto you. Maybe cute lady drinking alcohol is all you need for 3 minutes, but there should be something more.
Perhaps you may get some fleeting enjoyment from it if you are more tolerant of problematic disposable entertainment than I am. But for me 3 minutes a week is far too long to waste on this drivel.

What's the best thing after a stressful day at work? Unwinding with a bit of alcohol of course! That's basically the gist of this little short called Osake wa Fuufu ni Natte kara. It's all about married couple Sora and Chisato enjoying their couple life by having Chi-chan get drunk. It's a three minute short so you shouldn't expect much in the way of story, though the anime did surprise me by having, of all things, a two episode arc detailing the couple's first encounter. That was a nice touch the show decide to put at the end to give a bit more closure and also asa chance to have more cute moments with the two.
The entire show is built around these cute moments. Nothing really matters aside from these. Well, maybe aside from the drink recipe you're shown in every episode. If you feel like it you could probably make these drinks on your own since they're really simple, I however haven't tried it.
What else is there to say, really? The animation is below average, being mostly very still. The music may as well be non-existent and as mentioned above there's really no story to speak of.
What you see is what you get: a lovely, perfect couple and some drinks which make Chi-chan go all red and adorable.
I recommend watching this once a day, or once a week since it could get old watching what is essentially the same few story beats over and over again.
If you do decide to give this anime a try you'll find a relaxing three minute show that will make you wish you had a wife like Chi-chan or a husband like Sora and maybe also a cold drink in hand.

The Delightful Beergasm: An Anime Short Osake wa Fuufu ni Natte kara or Love is like a Cocktail is a great anime short about a couple in which the husband is a bartender Masaki Shiraishi voiced by Kenji Akabane that gives her wife Chisato Mizusawa voiced by Eri Kitamura alcohol to soothe her worries away...with a lemon mascot showing us how to make these delicious concoctions. If that sounded like LA thinks it sounded to you all and LA KNOWS SOME OF YOU WILL...STOP, it's not like that. If anything between Masaki and Chisato it's the cocktails that brought them together and we even get shownthis during a backstory about how they met.
The "beergasm" if anything is VERY similar to Shokugeki no Souma's foodgasms and with Eri Kitamura's brilliantly done drunk vocals and her great accenting makes the beergasms all the more to look forward to.
The animation done by Creators in Pack did decent enough with this short by showing off some detailed animations on the cocktails as well as the decent enough character designs to make them all distinguishable. Even then, the lemon mascot (that shows up a lot) though he's expected character design for a mascot isn't that bad either. Either way the animation is pretty good if only because of the detailed cocktails.
The voice acting....well LA already said it but Eri Kitamura is MVP in this anime short if only because of her great transitioning between strict and focused office lady accenting to delightful drunk.
Osake wa Fuufu ni Natte kara is FAR from being a horrible anime short, it's just merely a relationship of a husband and wife with alcohol involved and how they help each other from the worst or best of times and the alcohol in question is NOT brought up in a bad light and THAT is quite something even for an anime short.
So if you wanna see Eri Kitamura beergasm then Osake wa Fuufu ni Natte kara has your order.

Love is like a cocktail it's a short and sweet series that you can easily enjoy. Sora is definitely top tier husband material, and the way he takes care of his wife, Chisato, is just so wholesome to watch. Their interactions are incredibly heart warming, and it's a gentle reminder that even the simplest gestures can make your loved ones feel special. I also love that they showcase the recipe of each drink, it's such a cute touch! Despite its simplicity, it captures the essence of their connection and the strength of their bond. The character designs and animation style perfectly complement the wholesome natureof the story. ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
Anime-General
There really isn't much to say about the plot of this series or its characters, its just the interactions between a bartender husband and his wife who when she drinks she acts all cute and drunk when she gets a different each night. And its the same repeated joke in nearly each and every episode. The two main characters are simple, in which I know they are married and have jobs, that Chisato is reserved and works hard at her office job and her husband Sora, is soft spoken and caring to his wife. I just don't know much about their personalty beyond thator even anything about the supporting cast as well. With little comedy in each episode that kind of got a chuckle out me, the same setup and same joke in each episode makes it predictable and tiring to watch.
Animation was surprisingly good for a series with only a three minute run time per episode. It looks fine for what sets out to be with characters looking good and the drinks looking colorful and distinct. Yeah I'm not a person that likes alcohol that much but they were good to look at. As were the voice actors they were fine for what they given to do, though I was not a fan of the ending song.
I have seen many short anime series with three to five minutes of content each episode such as this, some of have been great and some have been terrible, Love is like a cocktail falls right in the middle. Its not bad nor is it good, i just personally find it average, though I do wish that the relationship between the main characters was better explored in some of the episodes. It still is fine especially when I took my time to watch each episode a little at bit throughout my days of watching it, then I would have if I watched it all in one day binge.

I was pleasantly surprised that each episode is only about 3 minutes long; All 14 episodes can be powered through in a single sitting. If you are looking for a "turn your brain off" anime then you've picked the right one. The story isn't very strong, and character development is near non existent, however, it was still very enjoyable. Additionally, each episode comes with a fun cocktail recipe to try! Spoilers, maybe? Most of the episodes follow a fairly linear plot line. The main character gets through her day at work, comes home to her husband, and has a drink. A cocktail recipe is shown, the maincharacter has a cute moment with her husband and the episode ends.
Overall quite enjoyable if you're looking for something simple and fun.

Honestly, I stumbled upon this anime bored out of my mind; and as I was looking for good anime to watch, I came upon this series. Looking for something that felt like nothing more than a casual, happy-go-lucky type anime, this satisfied what I was looking for. The jist of the story is that a corporate businesswoman named Chisato is married to her bartender husband, Sora. Chisato is normally very quiet and conserved at her job, but hides the fact that she has a large alcohol intolerance, essentially being a "one-shot wonder". This anime is a nice little relaxing series about hergetting drunk and the cute happenings that ensue.
There's honestly not much to critique about the anime; I mean, the episodes are only a few minutes long. The art and sound were on par with expectations, and there is a lack of character development as there is no real storyline to this series.
I definitely enjoyed this as something no more than a cute, romantic anime I'd watch all over again in my free time. But if you are looking for something with a storyline, or something with development, I suggest you go look someplace else.

Love is like a cocktail, an anime in which every episode is literally about a wife sipping different mixtures of alcohol made by her husband. Because of that, the anime shows a little to no background information on how they ended up together. That's why this anime doesn't have any plot whatsoever, just a pure slice of life anime. The wife, Chisato, is a unique one. She gets mild and wild when she's drunk, but she's honest and cute that way. Sora, on the other hand, is a very kind and caring husband. He's good at houseworks, especially cooking. I've never watched an anime where each episodeis only about three minutes. Since it covers thirteen episodes, it'll take you less than an hour to complete the series. That makes this anime simple, yet entertaining. I can safely recommend it for everyone who's looking for a fun but quick anime to binge right away.

We know that one can not demand much of an anime with time around 3 minutes per episode, but even an anime like that has to have criteria. As a development of a story, the characters, appropriate scenarios, moral of the story, techniques well used. Unfortunately this anime did not live up to expectations. The story is about an alcoholic woman, in which she should produce comical or sexy moments after drinking. From the perspective of being an anime of short duration does not require a dense script, with deep dialogues, yet it does not comply with what is available. The scenes that should be sexyor comic do not construct dialogues or images that emphasize or convince this.
While the characters are at their worst, the author seems to be bold in moments, but overall he is only committed to feminist, politically correct, and "morally modern" clichés. There is an inversion in the amime of the roles of man and woman they occupy in society, which is bold, yet it does not seem to be so daring in the scenes when they demanded a little more female sexuality. The woman several times shoots, then cuts the scene and ends the anime frustrating who watches, but if they had a little bit of eechi maybe they could convince and even become funny.
Scenarios are limited, within what was expected, the picture quality, stroke rule, sharpness and focus are satisfactory. Although it does not have large fluid scenes, but it is within the proposed and without disappointment. If in other of the quests the anime sends badly at least in this one he is well, presenting / displaying no great error.
With regard to techniques what bothered was the sound. The male voice actor, Ichiki, Mitsuhiro of Sora was very annoying, and the lack of a soundtrack, of music, made all the difference to not transmit any emotion. In the other technical aspects no major problems were perceived.
The end of the anime, the last three episodes give an improvement, with finally some evolution in history. Despite being a flashback, there is the construction of a novel with a good development and repeating only in the last episodes. We can say that it is the only thing that really saves the anime and possibly also the lemon.
Soon the anime if it is that we can call thus, does not have a satisfactory moral conclusion. It could be said that this is a bad taste of alcoholic drinks for women, in which the message is to marry a bartender, make him your domestic servant, and get drunk that he will love you. There is also the fact that the target audience is likely to be younger because it is an anime and without strong scenes that can not go on television at any time, even when there should be a better construction of the plot.

Unlike the anime, "I can't understand what my husband is saying" -- this anime despite the quality animation, seems to be made by someone with an overly idealistic outlook on married life.. with absolutely no clue how long term couples behave. I was honestly expecting more out of this. Only enjoyed how voluptuous she was, everything else was extremely unrealistic and disappointing. They're essentially middle school couples that get embarrassed over just being hugged... and made to look like grown ups... i swear even my first relationship ever at the age of 14 was ten times more mature than these "married couples" Story: 3 Nonexistent. everything is a plot deviceso that chi chan can come home and have beta-kun serve her alcohol and rewards him the same way a middle school girl would their boyfriend after a week of dating.
Art: 9
It's only saving grace, without the decent animation, the most I could give this would be a 2/10. If they wrote this off as purely ecchi, then this section alone could warrant for the majority of it's rating, because chi chan is very well endowed. -- alas I was expecting a heartwarming anime about cute married couples.
Sound: 8
The voice actors did their job properly, the sound effects team as well. such wasted potential.
Characters: 2
Zero actual depth for characters, the beta husband-kun exists to do two things;
1- Worship his goddess and make offerings of alcohol and food, always and ALWAYS after saying, "meshi agare" this is an absolute must.
2- Be the human equivalent of a scratching pole for a cat. i.e. a human shaped object with no emotions of its own, whose existence is solely for the purpose of being an object for the MC to cling to once she's drunk.
the husband is essentially what you'd expect of a preteen boyfriend simulator robot with no emotions.
Chi chan;
Only saving grace is her well developed body and cute face, aside from that... she has no personality, she goes to work, come back, gets drunk, acts cutesy and stuff, never gets laid with her husband, at most gets a little kiss on the forehead or something --- despite the fact that these are MARRIED PEOPLE.
Enjoyment and overall: 3
didnt really enjoy this at all really, but seeing the fact that this was animated pretty well and the voice actors did a decent job, I couldnt bring myself to rate this any lower.
but in all honesty, this anime was horrible. these are SUPPOSED TO BE MARRIED PEOPLE with actual jobs and crap, and yet they act like middle school kids on their first relationship.
apparently they're old enough to drink, but never do they ever actually do things mature, married people do.
whoever wrote the source material, is probably a virgin and has never once had a relationship longer than 2 weeks.
like seriously... so much wasted potential.
tl;dr: crap imitation of "I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying" with good animation and innocent ecchi.
Whoahoho
Ok, so last call, last call finish your drink, the bar is about to close for the night...: Ok, so what we have here is what can be called as Alcohol Porn for people who grew up and wanting to get something after a long days work, and this basically represent Japanese society where everyone drinks from the kohai to the sempai, from the guys who wanna have a good time to the girls who just wanna have a night off, so what gives: Poor 3, Story: Well it's poor cu'z there isn't any story, just a husband and wife tandem, where the guy serves hie wife somethingto drink that typically makes her wasted and that's that. Cu'z everything around here were just cocktail recipes.
Decent 4, Art:
Cu'z there isn't any fanservices around here, so don't expect any.
Decent 4, Sound:
No comment here.
Pathetic 1 , Character:
Chi Chan and Sora maybe the cast here but it was the cocktails that were the mainstay, around here , beside what Sora does to Chi-chan was simply making her a drunkard.
Decent 4, Enjoyment:
Part of me sees this enjoyable as we see Chi Chan getting drunk , but part of me sees this as a PTW.
Dreadful 2, Overall:
Basically, if this is studio "Creators In Pack" and original creator Crystal na Yousuke idea of a cocktail magazine documentary, then they were in the wrong place, cu'z they minus well be in Nat Geo People or FYI channel, to promote drinking and getting wasted.
LAST CALL 'Til bar closes!!!!!!!!Now PAY YOUR BILL!!!!!

Despite having very short episodes, I still enjoyed watching this anime. I mean, it's quite rare for anime like this that shows ideal relationships between married couples. Most would think that the highlight of every episode is the formula of the drinks that each episode features, but for me, its how the main couple show their affection and how you can see how much they care for and love each other in every episode thru their simple words and gestures - yes, their sweet nothings. It's good to see characters who are very much comfortable in showing and telling how they feel that is whyI really find this anime very light and refreshing to watch. After watching this, you would really start to dream of having that kind of relationship in real life when you get married.

Many people bash the entire idea of having a stay at home husband who is just a glorified bartender and cook and it is weird how he turned his future wife into an alcoholic but i think if that's what you thought straight off the bat from watching this you're reading way to into it. The entire idea of the story is supposed to be preposterous and out of this world. For Christ sake its anime. It's stupid, goofy, and heartwarming about a young married couple's everyday life. It's not supposed to be realistic. It's now trying to say anything deeper.It's just a nice short story with characters that everyone wishes they had in their lives with an occasional relate able plot point.
So take it as it as, as nothing more than a cute anime that's just trying to bring a smile to your face as you watch it and nothing more.

It was so fast to watch until the end, me and my sister both enjoyed all. The scenes are cute and you can notice that the proposit is show a couple that recently married and still are in love, so simple, at the same time has a good development. I was in love for these two characters, hope you can have fun like I had, as I said before I wish the episodes have 20 minutes instead of 3! The part of the drinks with the recipe I liked too, sure I'll try to make some of those one day, and it made me want tomarry and have this experience with someone, it is really lovely the way Sora cares for her, we can watch a good relationship between them, I just wanted to see she beeing more freely with him without any drink, sometimes its like a recently boyfriend and girlfriend relationship and not like a married couple.
The only thing I can complain about is a unnecessary fanservice scene on the first episode, but I forgive it because it had just one.

The story in the anime, Osake wa Fuufu ni Natte is good, but it lasts for a while. in the original story may still be confusing because I did not expect a good anime like this to last for a while, I guess the video player on my pc is broken. * lol reality is not as beautiful as expected. although I remain interested, because this anime has stories that do not usually exist in other anime. both main characters have a nice and unusual background in other anime. for the whole good story because it has been telling the life of the two main characters with complete from thebeginning meet up to become a couple.
I do not think with such duration but the story can still be enjoyed and the plot is also clear.

It's an anime about love, alcohol, and a relationship that every weeb wishes they could get. That's about it. Story: 7 Woman experiences life's daily struggles. Guy makes an alcoholic drink. Woman drinks said alcohol. Then comes... Love? Bliss? Glee? I'm sure it's one of those. While every episode typically follows this formula, because of the short length and small variables within each episode, you won't feel like it gets old. Other than that, there isn't a story. Normally, that would get points taken off, but this is one of the few anime that doesn't require an overarching plot. However, they did give two episodes dedicated tothe backstory of our main characters. In all honesty, they could have done much less.
Art: 7
It's clear that there was a budget here, even if it was small. There isn't much "animation" to speak of, but the artwork itself is vibrant and keeps your attention. You can see that there were a few cut corners, but you'd have to look for them to actually notice. Overall, there is at least some effort put into the art.
Sound: 6
I don't think that an anime about a woman getting drunk actually needs a soundtrack. Clearly, the creators knew this as other than a few sound effects, there isn't any distinct music. Luckily, the voice acting is good, and the ending theme is, while odd for this series, is relatively catchy.
Character: 7
There are only 2 characters worth mentioning, Chisato (otherwise known as Chi-chan), the wife, and Sora, the husband.
Chi-chan is a alcohol loving, and caring wife. However, they didn't just leave it at that. It is clearly defined that she is self-conscious about her drinking habits. Frankly, it's not much, but it's all she needed.
Sora is the caring husband. While he loves making all kinds of food and exotic drinks, he loves his wife even more. Even if he is pre-occupied with something else, he always finds time to treat his wife with his drinks.
You could compare the characters here to almost any other anime and see that there isn't too much development here, but it gets the job done.
Enjoyment: 7
You see a woman become drunk and then proceed to become adorable. Do we have to ask for more?
Overall: 7
While I don't think anybody on this site falls under the demographic this anime was aiming for, even I found some enjoyment out of it. While I don't think I would've watched it normally, because of the lack of other things to watch this fall, I resorted to this. Honestly, I don't regret it. Even if it is lackluster in some aspects, the creators cared enough to realize that this show deserved effort to be put into it. Thus, they did.
If you have nothing else to watch, then give this a try.

Osake wa Fuufu ni Natte kara(Love is like a cocktail) is a really short anime with a 3m length episodes, but this anime is obviously one of the cutest anime I have seen in a while it is relaxing and you get a warm feeling, The anime is about a couple that meet in a rainy day, where Chisato Mizusawa meets her soul mate Sora, where she was standing front of the bartender cafe, Sora ends up giving her her first drink and since then they have this secret about Chisato’s cuteness when she’s drunk. we follow their daily lifes together, where Chisato is a assistant managerand gets a lot of respect in the company, but she has a secret, that only her husband knows about her weakness against alcohol and how cute she can become. Everyday when Chisato comes home from work she will get delicious drinks from her husband and then she goes kawaii mode then we watch the cute relationship between Chisato and the perfect husband Sora
Story: 6
We can’t say there is a really story here other than the animes goal here is to give us a warm feeling and loads of cuteness
Art: 8
The anime is really well animated and it really suits the genre, the drinks etc. are really well animated to show how delicious they’re
Sounds: 7
The ending song is really cool and sounds perfect for the genre, the voice actors suit our characters well aswell
Characters: 6
As character I would say my personal favorite was lemon-kun ^^
Enjoyment: 9
I really enjoyed watching this anime, the cuteness was what I needed in such a depressing day basically made my day better

A short but cute anime, it reminds me "Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken". In addition of being kawaii, it also teach us about cocktails and their compositions. I've really liked the relationship between Chisato and Sora, full of tenderness and cuteness. Sora takes care a lot of Chisato and it's really touching ! In addition, for once, the boy is taking care of the girl by cooking and cheering her, that's unusual but really great to see ! My favorites episodes are the 7-9, so much cuteness in themallow the anime to teach us about the cocktail.
Despite the short duration (3min per episode) they success to make a touching relation between character, which show how effective the narration is.
The short duration allow you to watch everything quickly and to enjoy the full show, that's perfect to spend a good evening / day !
