Yesterday wo Utatte

Drama for the sake of having drama, no real culmination of events leading up to it. Every new complication they added was more pointless than the last one; I know this is supposed to be a cute little series, but it still could've been thought out more. The last episode is incredibly rushed and gives little to no explanation to the behviour of main characters. All in all, it was an okay watch, entertaining but no real grip to it and disappointing in the end. I wouldn't not recommend watching it, I'd just recommend watching it with no expectations of it being great, just something cutsie to pass the time.

Ok, so I watched this show because of Jill Harris voicing Haru. And that's a true plesure, both the character and the voice talent work there, I can tell you. There are many scenes I watched multiple times just to listen to her sentences. (I discovered Jill's work first in Higehiro as Sayu, she also voiced a lovely character there, however, that show is a bit more controversial than convenient for me. Don't skip it tough, it's just fantasy, you don't have to agree with everything you watch. There are movies where they are killing people, you know...)

As for the rest of the characters and the show I can't really highlight anything. It's average at best and twice as long than it should be. As a positive point for me the presentation and the dialogs are mature. No fan service, no annoying creepy characters, no stupid jokes, it's a slice of life anime. If you have time and nothing more interesting to watch, it can work. As others mentioned already the two MCs are just annoyingly indecisive. You have to watch them mature and come to a conclusion at the end and it's a pain to watch them sometimes. You will watch lots of cooking, eating and walking. Sometimes I asked myself why I watch these losers, but I just returned time to time. This show has some charm for sure.

The ending is cool.

I demand more Haru! ;)

ps. I came back and raised my point from 7 to 8. It's not average, it's just slow. But nice nonetheless.

I just wanna say that do watch till the end and I promise you won't regret doing so! But you will feel like flipping a table...yeah that's how crazy some characters drive you sometimes. Nevertheless give it a try you will love it! ☺

Rikuo has recently graduated from college but has no ambition to do anything with his life; he has a job at a convenience store. Things are about to get interesting for him as he meets Haru, a somewhat eccentric girl who is frequently accompanied by her pet crow; and Shinako, an old college friend who is now a teacher. Things are further complicated for Shinako as her late boyfriend's younger brother clearly has feelings for her.

This is a fairly gentle anime series with realistic characters leading ordinary lives; there is no major drama, no fan service and it isn't a comedy... that may make some people think it must be boring but I'd 'disagree; I enjoyed the pace and found the realistic characters fun to watch. The animation is good and the character designs and backgrounds fit the realistic feel of the series. It won't be for everybody but I'd certainly recommend this to anime fans looking for something different.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

I honestly thought I could hold in these love triangles any longer. However I'm just giving this up after watching 7 episodes, I just couldn't continue it with its annoying pointless drama. I really thought this series was going to be good with Rikuo and Haru getting together but it's just yeah, turns out it wasn't for me bro!

If you enjoy love triangles, here's one to binge while in quarantine!
