| It gave me the same reaction as Carole and Tuesday. Very positive! |
| I actually came across this anime on coincedence and I thought it looked pretty cool. And the fact that my favorite anime studio (Studio Lerche) works on this, I decided to watch it and so far I am really interested on where this is gonna go, I mean I haven't seen Shounen Ai anime yet (makes sense since theyre not really popular and you can guess why) and I think I'll stick with this anime till the end. |
| music was great, the animation was great, the voice acting as great, and damn if im not about to go read the manga to figure out wtf happened to mafuyu... by the looks of it, it's going to be a natural and realistic progression in terms of relationships...thank god! looking forward to episode 2. definitely deserves all the praise its getting!! |
| started reading the manga very early on and put it on hold after 2-3 chapters cuz it wasn't updating for awhile after this first episode, i went to read it again and it's pretty good!! the scenes in the op has much more meaning now anyway, first impression of episode 1: it's good, not amazing, but pretty good adaptation. The animation is smooth and crisp, the music playing was good too. Mafuyu is cute! Ritsuka is cute too! I think the best part of the episode was the guitar strumming and the jam session. It just feels good to hear a real instrument playing. |
 |
| Remember trying to read this before so I didn't finish this episode. Might try again if I'm bored. I really like the color palette though. So warm. |
| It's finally here!! T__T (I'm quite late in watching it tho) I'm a big Kizu Natsuki fan so I'm just so so happy that one of their manga is now an anime!! I love love love Natsuki-sensei's manga so much. I admit the animation doesn't quite do sensei's beautiful art style justice (because imo in the manga, idk, everything in sensei's art just looks so more... ethereal? like, there's a sense of longing and something beautiful that can't be grasped in words... but yeah. if you get the chance, please do check their work!!) But seeing them moving?? Talking? And the music?? God I won't even complain. Plus the animation and graphics aren't that bad either. I haven't watched much anime in a while, so maybe it's just me and my biases lol. Anyway!! What I really just want to see is that if the anime can properly convey the emotions that were shown in the manga. Like, even though you couldn't hear them, the art and the expressions drawn in the manga made up for it so much, the emotions were shown very well and that's what made me love it so much. I love the opening. (and the music!!) Though the lyrics just tear at my heart aah T-T Gawd. I can't wait to bawl my eyes out in later episodes. |
 |
| This looks so promising. The animation, voice acting, and omg the music are all in top form. If this continues with a beautiful story line I will be so grateful. I have not read the manga so I get to this story develop over time with a sense of wonder. I am such a sucker for romance. |

| Not even BL stuff fan, but music so count me in Nice OP song and doggie on the ED, cool Let's see how it goes |
 |
| I'm honestly not impressed, the flair is pretty different, feels a lot lighter than the Manga, opening doesn't quite match the drama, all in all it seems like a generic BL. I even feared it would end up as yaoi-hand-syndrome, the art style/ animation has some really deep drops, and they race through the story. I fear that it won't be a faithful adaptation but an Anime version aimed at a different audience, I really hope they get back to the drama aspect and don't turn this into a pseudo-comedy with zero emotional weight. |
| It was a little slow at the start but the music got me really interested. I'm looking forward to the second ep! 4/5 |

| The animation is great but the story has yet to suck me in. I'm guessing Mafuyu is holding that guitar, based on the first part of the episode, it's a momento from someone he loved whether that be his brother, friend or boyfriend or a guy he had a crush on. Tbh, it's not my cup of tea and I might put it on the back burner for now. I'm just not into anymore music-themed series since I'm already watching Carole and Tuesday. Also I'm not a huge fan of shounen-ai. I'm pretty sure the main two characters will end up together like they always do. I'll revisit this in the future. |
| θγ- |
| This is really good. Interesting characters, good music and animation (let's not talk about the CGI), story seems pretty good too. Definitely enjoyed the first episode. |
 |
| Well not a whole lot actually happened here yet but... seems alright I guess? o: |
  |
| So like it seemed that most people were put off by the shonen Ai tag... but it isn't really though... is it |
 |
| Ok episode, I liked the music and atmosphere but Mafuyu is very annoying. |
 |
| Seriously though, what was it with that explosion. xD |
If life ain't just a joke Then why are we laughing? If life ain't just a joke Then why am I dead? |
Illuminatli said: Seriously though, what was it with that explosion. xD have no idea about why they used that effect o.0 |
The spider is watching |
| So I didn't know what kind of show this was... I'll just see myself out. |
 |
| -sweats- ... Mafuyu is a little bit of a stalker. Despite that, something about this show already has its charm. I hope it all turns out well! |
| This is my first time watching "shonen ai" and it's starting so good, I love it!!! |
 |
| I Love the first episode!! especially the session <3 love it so muchh!! they are so cool :) I'm not into BL because it's too cringy and sweet and some are rapey but I'm rooting for this! I hope they will not force the romance part or just make a bromance will be great <3 |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| I'm positively surprised. I'm personally a big fan of BL works, but BL anime almost always comes out as cliche, bad or with overly used plots. So I tend to stay away. I feel like this one won't turn out to be a disappointment. Now as a rock fan, I am veeeery pleased with the music. I hate to say this, but I already like that jam more than half of Carol & Tuesday songs (and I love C&T!). Animation and art style are very good, which is another thing that surprises me. Humor is on point, not overly used or anything. I like the characters for now, tho I'm kinda annoyed with the airhead trope Mafuyu has, I hope he'll loosen it up later |
| I read the manga and it likes me how they were loyal to the essence of the same. This story has so many enjoyable points so, I am expecting the joy of everyone who saw and choose this anime kind of genre even if they aren't used to. Please give it a try. You are gonna love it. |
-¡Give yourself to me! |
| Wtf is that someone suiciding in Mafuyu's memory? The OP is really nice, i love it already. And the animation is good for a BL anime. Haruki & Akihiko are hillarious! The trio's play is actually really enjoyable Eh, Mafuyu & Ueno's interaction after that could have been executed better. Especially in the part where Mafuyu almost got hit by a car but Ueno pulled him and-OML THEIR FACES ARE SO CLOSE |

| A kinda boring first eps. Not much happened. Plot is a little bland. Didn't really ignite my interest until the music part, then it falls down again. I like puppy characters but Sato is too... bland... like a cup of water, tasteless. Cute, but tasteless. Not really entertaining to watch. Seeing as the score is pretty high i hope this gets better. |
| Probably, one of the best first episode of this season. Everything was great. Ritsuka is so adorable when he is angry while Mafuyu is cute. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. ζ₯ζ¬ |
| Yup, Mafuyu is a lost puppy X3 but got to love his dog <3 Good episode! :) Seems promissing ^^ |

| A solid first episode. I like the main guy so far~ |
 It’s okay to look back at the past, just don’t stare too long |
