Kimi ni todoke

If the Kuronuma didn't say Kazehaya every other word, I would have enjoyed it more... if name dropping was a drinking game, you would be drunk by the end of the first episode. I never understood why anime producers or writers feel the need to have the MC or the MC love interests name dropped so much. From Me to You, despite this quirk, holds a special place in the hearts of many fans. The story of Kuronuma and Kazehaya is one of growth, understanding, and the gentle unfolding of young love. While the frequent name-dropping might seem excessive at times, it serves as a reminder of the deep connection between the characters and the impact they have on each other's lives.

As the series progresses, viewers are drawn into a world where small gestures and heartfelt conversations hold immense weight. The character development is subtle yet profound, allowing audiences to witness the transformation of shy, misunderstood individuals into confident, loving partners. It's a journey that resonates with anyone who has experienced the complexities of navigating relationships during the formative years of life.

Ultimately, "From Me to You" is more than just a story about frequent name mentions; it's a touching exploration of personal growth, friendship, and the beauty of finding one's place in the world.

This show has become my favorite shoujo anime! Am I the only one that thinks that this is super underrated? This show is not only a love story but a story about how to become a better version of yourself. The art style is BEAUTIFUL!! I just can't stop admiring how unique looking all the character designs and the backgrounds are. Most people would consider beautiful art style as the number of details or vivid colors or how well animated it is. But Kimi ni Todoke's art style helps you connect with the show's emotions uniquely. The music is also very fitting and beautiful.

The characters are all interesting and three-dimensional. They all develop throughout the show. This show will make you laugh, cry, and scream in frustration. The relationships between all the characters are so cute and will warm your heart.

If you are looking for a heart-warming show that will make you feel all fussy things inside, seriously, look no further!!!

I watched this first when i was like 10 and I loved it. ever since I've probably watched it at least 5 times, it's become a tradition to rewatch it every spring. I love the art style. I like to describe the feeling you get when watching it as sunshine, it makes me feel so warm and happy...This show has definitely done something to me, I love all the characters so much too and I want to read the manga :)

Yes its slow at first. But this is such an adorable and wholesome anime. I loved it so much.

Kimi ni todoke is a marvelous love story with fleshed out characters and near perfect pacing.

Unfortunately, that doesn't go for Sawako's beloved Kazehaya, as he often is an enigma. Mostly he doesn't say much, and when he says something it's rather hollow. First he is upset that Sawako distances herself from him, only to grow so distant himself. He absolutely doesn't act like you would expect from a boy in love. That irritated me a lot, especially towards the end.

Most conflicts are rather contrived, and that's okay as the show doesn't dwell on them and the characters aren't overly unreasonable as they tend to be in anime.

I absolutely love the art style, which changes to doll like animations in comedic scenes, which there are plenty.

Season 2, on the other hand, is absolutely terrible. The characters haven't grown in any way, there are so much forced and silly conflicts, Kazehaya grows dense and is really annoying, and they shouldn't have introduced more despicable characters. Also season 2 has only half as many episodes.
