----------------------------------------
No post for the last episode? Oh well.

I thought the early episodes laid the groundwork for a fantastic coming of age story; with Yuuko learning to be more honest and clear when dealing with other people. But, she stayed pretty selfish, and overly-reliant on everyone else, for the most of the series. Also,I felt the romance aspect was kinda dull. That being said it was still very good, with some of my favorite episodes being apart of the 'Memory Album'-episodes near the end. They were a lot of fun and I wouldn't complain if they had more of them, especially the hormonally driven adventures with the crew of boys, which I found surprisingly relatable for what is technically a 'shoujo' story.

Out of the episodes from 39-47, I only enjoyed the beach episode with the focus being the best friend of the female MC.

Now for the anime as a whole (episodes 1-38)

Since this is considered the "Final episode",

Mizuiro Jidai is an underrated anime, a hidden gem.

Its not a masterpiece, but it did many things right.

Its one of the best animes to be adapted from a shoujo manga, with its biggest selling point in that im sure many can relate to this anime when watching it.

Ive always said that middle-school is the best school-setting in anime; not high school and not college.

Its a very nice coming of age story for everyone.

All the characters have very nice chemistry with one another.

I definitely recommend if you want to watch a shoujo anime, since it feels like a breath of fresh air, specially with how Shoujo animes are portrayed since the 2000s

As for negatives = I do wish the anime was shorter, since many episodes felt bland, especially since this anime is somewhat episodic. You could have cut this anime down to about 26 episodes instead of 38/47 episodes.
