The budget for this episode was astounding.

the animation for this episode was really... disappointing, when i started watching this anime the first things that captured my attention were the colors and the amazingly perfect quality, if you compare the first episode with this one the change is so dramatic.

As for ren's and haru's relationship... i don't think the anime really grasps the whole thing completely, after starting to read the manga i can tell that much, so i get why people find it creepy, the way they are towards each other and stuff, and there are only three episodes left and they are not even half there on covering up some important aspects.

I'm hoping for a 2nd season but if there isn't one it's okay too, i think it's better if they leave it at that... if they really can't put/express it the right way. Plus, that way the hate for the series will finally be buried and everyone happy, a friendly reminder that if it's not your cup of tea, you're not obligated in any form to keep on watching it.

Yep! I was the same way until I read the manga. I love the series so much but there is absolutely no way to condensed 60 pages a chapter into a 21 min anime.

The hate is saddening but expected. The series can be pretty creepy when not given the right amount of info like, read the manga please since the anime isn't doing Haru and Ren's relationship, development justice. I love this series so much and I'm not even a bl/boyxboy/yaoi/shounen-ai fan so I was pretty damn surprised to have fallen so hard for this series.

It's just so...Unique to me. As long as this stays popular in Japan, I could care less about most western or well, views and opinions from close minded people. Not implying that all of the people creeped out by it are westerners but the usual argument I see is the age gap which isn't a big deal in other parts of the world. At least from what one of my friends said how in her country 14 is the usual age for said relationships or something like that. I need to speak with her again.

Very enlightening to learn about other cultures and laws on dating/age of consent/adults/minors etc etc. I think that's what I like about this series too, I learned more about other parts of the world (by researching how early IS too early) considering I'm from America ahaha.

Anyway, I dig this series and sincerely hope it gets a second season or faster manga updates. Best of luck to Abe!

yup exactly, even if the anime really (up till now) has followed the manga accurately, it certainly is impossible to understand it all just by watching the 10 episodes, on the other hand if this gets a second season i can already picture what it will be about and honestly it will just get worse, i also have a feeling that nothing is what it seems here, i don't know... there's something else? i still don't know what... but there's definitely something else.

The progress of their relationship is even more slow in the manga and like you said it's impossible to put 60 pages a chapter in 21 minutes, but i find it weird that they made the anime so short, i mean 10 episodes but ugh let's wait, right? i'm still giving them the benefit of the doubt, they better fix up that crappy animation for the next chapter tho

I love series that take their time, really builds character but I'm not a fan of super slow ones like Kimi Ni Todoke, at least from what my friends have said, it was pretty frustrating until it got to the kiss part like 100 chapters later or something.

There's actually a joke my friend and I keep making and it's that all the budget went to Haru's hair and that episode 9 is gonna be lit but I don't know. They better be saving the budget for some amazing animation like, please.

As for a second season, hmm I'm still on the fence cause I really think they're gonna end it on a cliffhanger but I don't know, maybe we'll get an anime only ending.

same haha gosh i fell in love with haru in the first episode and it wasn't even the character development or how they introduced him, it was the fact that he looked so pretty i was like: damn why is he so pretty lol so this episode really left me a bittersweet aftertaste.

yes, i think so, they either end it on a cliffhanger or end it definitely, i just hope they won't rush it, after all they are covering up just one small part of the series with the anime, this makes me feel anxious

Kyofushibibi said:


Okay but honestly....Same. I saw Haru and I was like damnnnn, why are you so pretty? What are your eyes?? My favorite character at first was Ren but now Haru and Ren are just tied on my list.

I had really hoped SL would get like 12 episodes but it's a bl so of course it won't be treated like action/drama other kinds of series. Still, I absolutely can't wait for the OVA, I am clueless as to what it will be about.

i honestly wasn't expecting much of the anime, even the title was unappealing to me at first but then i thought why not? and then i gave it a try, to be honest i finished watching the first episode thanks to the great animation and all those beautiful colors it was sooo nice, but then up till now i really don't have a character in this anime whom i would call my favorite, that's why i started reading the manga... in my opinion the anime doesn't allow you to have a wide perception of all the characters, in the manga you can fall in love even with the twin brothers and their personality, while in the anime they don't really have a deep development, so... man really i think this isn't that kind of anime you can start without having some information to begin with, first of all it will unsettle you and secondly you won't really feel the connection at all.

i really hope something good is comming, let's hope things won't get messed up
