The entire premise bothered me, why would you devote yourself to a guy you only exchanged a handful of sentences with, to like model your whole life around that. It just did not work for me, especially as a springboard for a story.

This had it's cute moments but it was all a bit paint by numbers. Everything was overly predictable and it was hard to feel anything at all for the main characters. Also, like the OP said, the premise the entire story was based on was very weak. Really I think I would have liked a story focusing on the younger couple instead, they actually seemed more interesting.

It was alright. Shuuhei had a really bland personality so I'm not sure what made him so likeable in Seara's eyes.

I think the side characters carried this more than the main couple did, but I feel that way for a lot of older romances. Koharu and Rai were much more interesting to watch, for example.

In terms of romance, it didn't do jack squat to be original in its romance. I won't fault it there since it's from 1997, but watching it now doesn't exactly do it any favors.

But overall, wasn't great, but the side characters had some good moments so it helped the anime survive being more than "generically average."
