[About the Anime:

  Impassive girl meets trouble maker in a brand new love story! After Mizutani Shizuku, a girl whose sole interest is studying, is asked to deliver some handouts to Yoshida Haru, a boy who hasn't come to school after spilling blood on the first day, she finds herself the target of his affection. This is a story about a boy and a girl who struggle with love and friendship. Opening yourself up to other people forces you to be honest with yourself.]


AHH!!!!

 At first, this anime was just solely comedy to me, but then I got so attached to the characters and their issues and misunderstandings- and Oh. My. Mac & Cheese-  I couldn't stop.

I actually cried, people! Because there was that much emotional turmoil for the characters to admit that they cared for each other, and my heart couldn't take it.

That's my ghost right there on the ground- I died because of fictional characters 😑.

And now I'm going to go haunt people...because what else am I supposed to do? xD


Shizuku reminded me so much of Maka from Soul Eater,  but at the same time, she's nothing like Maka at all. There are some decisions that Shizuku made that Maka would've never made, so I liked how I could see them easily being friends or similar- but so different and unique from other characters.
I don't like copycat characters in anime, in case you can't tell.

Second, I noticed that this anime made me so territorial of my ships (Shizuku x Haru). I literally wanted any of the side characters dead if they even so much as looked at either Shizuku or Haru too long.

Was it really too much to ask for just my ship to get together and no one pose a threat to my- I mean their- happiness?!?!


Anyway, I loved this anime and am definitely ready for the manga and then to re-watch it!

[My Rating:⭐⭐⭐⭐] [4.5 stars]
