All I have to say is that karma went full throttle in this series.
For a matter of fact this anime is good, the problem is the characters, each one of them seems to have only one motive and all of them just feel really flat and unfinished and, yes I know "read the manga" they say but the way this anime's plot has been planned out just quite litterly feels shallow with only the ending just being a WTF moment for me, all the other events are pretty much unnecessary or are just there to make the runtime longer. If you are a man of culture give this one a watch, but if you are looking for a mind-bending story to get invested in this ain't gonna be your cup of tea. 7/10
It has already been said, but it's true so I'll say it again. It starts off light like a normal romance anime, nothing special, but at the 4th episode it starts to get darker, and darker, and heavier, then suddenly the final episode arrives and hits you in the stomach with a baseball bat. I watched the entire series in 1 day because I couldn't wait to find out what happens next, so it was around 1:00 AM when I saw the last episode. I couldn't sleep too well, I was emotionally disturbed for about a week but afterwards I just relaxed and started laughing.
I re-watched many of the episodes (including the ending) and still love them. The characters are likable, (everyone may hate Makoto, but they aren't reading in between the lines) the story is moving, and I can't remember anything else to say. I recommend this for people who either have a strong stomach, or a barf bag.
It may be a bit unrealistic, but then again, when the hell are animes ever realistic?

This anime starts off like a normal high school romance anime, but if that's the only thing your looking for I would stay away. The show itself is very well written, and has very good characters and development. I will try and give no hint at spoilers here, but that's rather difficult. The show involves a love triangle where a high school boy seems to have to make a choose between a new-found friend, or his new girlfriend. The difference between this show, and other high school romance anime is a serious tone. Most bad reviews written about this show are from people who were expecting a different genre. If you are open minded I don't see any reason why you wouldn't enjoy this show.
Well, this review will be rather short for I don't have a lot to say about this series.
First of all, there is nothing wrong with the animation itself, it is good enough for today's standards. The story is well build and all the other technical details are also good.
However, The story starts as a regular high school comedy. Up to the third/fourth chapter everything goes well. They build you to think the story is totally different to how its going to be. In the fifth chapter, the plot thickens. I'm not really going to say how because I think I could be spoiling the series for you but if you have watched the movie Thirteen and you multiply what you felt there for a thousand you may get how I felt when I watched it.
There is other good things about this series like the fact that it is completely different than most series, characters are not cliché and most importantly it shows a social reality that everyone is aware of but nobody really thinks about. (Most guys date tons of women without carrying for their feelings).
This series scarred me for life.... This is by far the heaviest series you will ever see. Maybe it's just me, but I couldn't sleep in like 3 days and some of the stuff still hunts me all day long.
I do notttt recommend you this series.. however I do encourage you to watch it (or at least try to) if you think this kind of stuff does not affect you a lot (its good to watch something different to what you usually watch).But... Consider your self warned.
