| This definitely seems like it's gonna be my feel good anime this season, I'm excited <3 |
on 
| i am always nervous starting a new romance shojo, most main characters either have flat personalities, extremely unrealistic interactions (what do i expect tho, it is anime), and appear weak or dense ⇎_⇎ and idk about you but i just find that annoyingly cliche however, when i first read this manga i fell in love, the female lead, Yuki, is as beautiful as the snow, not to mention she has a pleasantly shy personality. Itsuomi is also my favorite male lead of any shojo i have read! for those whole compare this to A Silent Voice, this is a story of love and acceptance not redemption and forgiveness. i didn't get the hullabaloo over the art style, the team did a fantastic job with the art and animation, creating a gentle atmosphere and portraying Yuki's world for us! by the end i was tearing up, i can't wait for the next episode (*꒦ິㅿ꒦ີ) |

| Wow if this anime gets any sweeter I'm going to need insulin. How did they draw the main guy's lips to look so luscious? Damn they look inviting and bite-able. Good news for her is the guy already is a polyglot, which makes him very attractive. Not sure if sign language is universal among other languages, but him being a student of languages is a good thing because that removes a barrier to the romance. This is very good writing, because logically it won't break immersion. |
 |
| It's like an isekai romance without the fantasy. The deaf world being the other world. Super excited for this perspective. |
| Beautiful and Yuki is adorable, Shoujo fans eating good. |
| SHOUJO BROS WE'RE SO BACK |
| Very wholesome! It's kinda nice to have an anime where people make an effort to speak a bit slower and to articulate every syllable, makes it easier for those of us who are trying to learn Japanese to understand better. What does the hearing aid do? I thought she would hear loud noises, like the moped coming behind her. |
| This seems really wholesome after watching the first episode. But judging by the green hair guy's interest, it looks like another childhood friend is going to get their heart broken :( |
| Wahhhh~! This feeling is like the first time I watched Kimi Ni Todoke again! I'm so excited for the future episodes knowing that the story was made by the same author of Hibi Chouchou (controversial take but my favorite shojo manga ever when will it get an anime adapt TT_TT) |

That was so wholesome at the end omggg 😭. The way she got excited after seeing the text killed me inside. This is gonna be a great series  |
weebs i found my first deaf and mute waifu she is so cute but the scene below sealed the deal just look at her made me wanna protect her |
 |
| I really like the art style. The characters all look so cute. Surprisingly some of the English in this is well pronounced aside from those random side people in that one scene. I found it amusing he spoke slowly to help Yuki read his lips. I did the exact same thing with a cute hard of hearing girl in class before as a gut reaction when she asked me something since I knew she was a lip reader. I am not sure what to make of him touching her head so much. Lol Minor pet peevev. Finger tattoos do not last long maybe a few months, even though it looks neat. |

| Cute show. Wasn't planning to watch this but saw a small clip of the two on the train (sign language) and it piqued my interest. Good first impression! |
Reply to kisaragi_eki
@Pustul just keep watching it yuki herself will explain it in the later eps!!
| @kisaragi_eki oh great, thanks for the heads up, I will definitively keep watching! |
| Damn, male MC's lower lip is bigger than my future. Lowkey wanna take a bite of that, not gonna lie. OK-ish first episode. Visuals as well as sound design are certainty stunning but that's about it. Pretty generic shoujo premise with FMC falling in love at first sight because ikemen MC who doesn't understand of personal space was nice to her. |
| Loved the art style 😍 Now way too curious to read the manga. 🤩 Don't know how good the adaptation is but seems like it's quite good. Seems like there will not be so much of unnecessary drama, is quite wholesome. And excited for the next episode. Hoping this will be one of the best of this season. ❤️ |

| That was magical. I hope it stays like this until the end of the season. |

| Wow. This seems to be a wholesome, cozy anime that also includes a lot of emotions. I'm already loving it after the first episode. I simply love the aesthetics of this and there is a lot of potential regarding story and characters. I feel like the fact that Itsuomi knows how to speak several languages already and seems to be good at learning them strongly hints at him learning sign language (not just from the beautiful Opening). Yuki is so sweet and needs to be protected at all costs. But I also like her friend. And I also liked how the situation on the subway with the foreigner wasn't anything extreme but something very simple that could happen in real life. Very interesting and beautiful start <3 |

| Yeah I'm already pretty sure this will be one of my personal hits of the season. Very cute, real nice colors and character designs and honestly knowing something about how deaf people act and feel is very cool (the alarm was surprising, both as a problem I'd never think about and how it's solved). Hell, even these first 20 minutes hit like a truck in some parts, how she feels alone when others are talking and such. Eager to see more |
| Haven’t read manga - this is my first experience of the story. Just finished watching episode one and honestly? I love it. I know my expectations tend to be bare minimum with romance anime and yet so many of them end up disappointing me. This is nice, it’s simple, no nonsense and straightforward. I love how direct and forward Itsuomi is so they are not spending 12 episodes just trying to establish slow burn movement towards acknowledging their mutual interest. If the show can keep this kind of pacing, it might even end up in my top picks of this season. Anyway with only one episode out, not much can be said, except it looks promising for now. |
| Really enjoyed that episode! The romance seems to be starting off right away and I love the switching showing the main character's viewpoints and world |

| Damn bro got the rizz. So we got another deaf character like Nishimiya. I love Koe no Katachi, the standard is already high so i hope this Anime can do something different and executed it well. |
 |
| probably my favourite from this season so far tbh, rn its between this and solo levelling |
