Shoujo Ai? Yes.
Comedy? Yes...
Drama? Yes...
On the surface level, this series looks like a comedy anime about an overly popular girl with an ambition to get everyone to love her getting roped into working in a café because of an accident and walks back and forth with comedy and light drama. Underneath it is a deep story about trauma caused from self-caused bad interactions with people/friends/co-workers. That might sound heavy, but the series never goes hard enough for the real drama fans and tries to stay within reach of comedy. It is basically a play within a play, with café guests being witnesses to known or unknown melodrama.
I found the series good at the start when it focused more on the comedy and early drama, but after about halfway through the series when the story starts to branch more into the side characters it looses its strength: the main characters' perspective, which is far more interesting compared to the rather stereotypical side characters.

female, , bishoujoIn the West, bishoujo are attractive girls generally from late childhood or early adolescence to late adolescence, especially those that appeal to males, and particularly fictional characters designed in a way traditionally associated to shoujo manga. Fictional bishoujo tend to be cute, pastel-coloured teenagers; they lack the sophistication of older women, instead having detailed eye and hair design, fluttery costumes often including ribbons, and all sorts of generally sparkly fluff., blunt bangsBlunt bangs are a style of hair bangs, cut to have a uniform straight or gently arched edge at the end of the frontal fringe, without jagged edges, and minimal spikes., cross pendantThis character wears a cross on a chain around his/her neck., pettankoPettanko refers to a female character that places a great deal of importance on the fact that she is flat chested. It does not refer to characters that merely happen to be flat chested, but do not make any importance of this fact. The character may be extremely proud of the fact that she is flat chested, or extremely embarrassed of the fact., school uniformA type of uniform worn in Japanese schools (called "seifuku" in Japanese), generally high school age or younger. They can vary considerably; commonly, females will wear a sailor uniform (modelled off the British Royal Navy uniforms in 1920) and males will often wear a "gakuran", which is a dark button-up uniform modelled off Prussian army uniforms. But expect to see a substantial amount of variety., very long hairVery long hair is hair from (and including) waist-length hair or longer., yellow eyesThis character has yellow eyes., yellow hairThe character has yellow hair. This does not map precisely to real-life blond hair.
