Im not really into mushy stuff. But this anime approached the subject of life and romance really well. It truelly is one of the most beautiful stories written.

The story is a fairly average concept taken from a differnt direction. A girl who likes a guy and wants him to like her back. However, this story is so wonderful. Its sincerity, its realism while still showing beautiful romance is a wonder in and of itself. Now its definantly a slice of life as it knows how to show drama however unlike most other series deals with real issues in a real way while not being dumb or changing the characters unnaturaly like most movies seam to do. The characters change through what I could call a long story through the life of the main characters and actually adds more of an adult aspect that makes its story all the more real yet charming. Somthing that is so very rare in Anime is the characters actually grow out of Highschool, college and progess even further. A risky yet wonderful move.

The Dialogue is played by the Numbers. Every actor puts forth all their all and can hit all the proper voice tones. I honestly can say many times I got inthralled into the story because every voice was just perfectly on. I found the fact that some of the characters have to keep the same voice but age as due to the change in the actual character age is just so perfect. They are the same actors yet you can hardly tell they are using differnt voices because its so natural.

Animation. Actually its quite wonderful. Everything is detailed and even the backgrounds are well done. The characters faces are well captured. You could just look in the eyes or the face and pick up on exactly what is meaning to be conveyed. Also I was thankful everything looked so well and proportionate. Even small things down to medical appliances were athentic and effectivly spaced and details. Honestly near perfect.

Entertainment. I think this is one of the few stories I didnt need or want anything else from the ending. It was just so perfect while being so real and wonderful. I found myself just so satisfied and happy with the ending. As a person who enjoys anime, likes realism but still perferes a good and probably happy ending.. well it delivered most perfectly. I find I will probably watch this series many times, but even once through is a wonderful treat..

If you love romance, slice of life, some drama or just plain happy stories then this one should be delayed to be watched. I didnt see it right off the bat and Im kinda glad I defenantly didnt wait any longer. This was perfect.
