I rarely write reviews....but this anime is so underrated that I just had to.

I had "Lamune on my plan to watch list for years...for literally about 5 years before i got the courage to start it, and boy do I not regret now that decision.

I write this review just barely now, after finishing the last episode, and I am still in a warm shocked state. I can still feel the dried tears on my cheeks and I have a subtle smile on my face as I write this.

The show starts up laid back and relaxing...but what happened in the development of the episodes(especially the last ... ones) is why I would call this a masterpiece. I don't want to spoil anything about it so this will be a spoiler free review.

Story: 10/10

The story starts slow and relaxing as I said, but just trust me, especially if you are a romance fan (with big bits of slice of life and drama)...you will end up loving this...i don't want to say anything about the story, so I invite you to just watch it

Art: 8/10

Considering it's 2005, the art is good. The main girl is really cute, and there are some bits where the art looks lovely, while others where it looks average.

Sound: 8/10

The OP and ED are ok-ish...the OP is decent. I thought this anime didn't have an OP or ED until halfway through because i watched a version of it where they were chopped up.
Buuuut the OST is gorgeous, really lovely piano music, and erfectly blended with the story line.

Characters: 9/10

The two MC are awesome...again i would spoil if i'd say more. They are just good...and they get awesomer as the story progresses.

Enjoyment: 9/10

As i said...the story starts slow, but once it goes past a certain point...it will become epic, and every part of it will make more sense, even why it was so slow.

Overall: 10/10
IF you are a Romance anime fan, and want to see a series that does Romance as it should be done...definetely watch it! But be warned...it's so good you will be left to want more...as i want right now, and unfortunately this anime does not seem to have a manga, or sequel, or anything else besides these 12 episodes. So enjoy them throughfully.

Hope I made up your mind to try it out, romance anime fan...So if I did please enjoy the show! :)

ok i don't usually do reviews but i can't belive that such an interesting OVA hasn't been reviewed by anyone!
so i'm gonna try and do one :)
please excuse my eventual grammar mistakes...

"Tori no Uta" is a little 30 minutes OVA that barely has any plot and doesn't actually make too much sense...but for some reason i kept my eyes sticked to the monitor and watched all this...




... Story...7/10

As I said...there isn't much to say about the plot,it's basically about a guy that meets a girl on a rainy night inside a bus stop.He falls inlove with her but the next day she was nowhere to be found(although he knew where she stays).

from here you'll have to watch yourself because i would spoil :p...i can nly say it will involve some dreams and really strange stuff

this ova should be tagged under the genres: "mistery","supernatural","romance" & "trippin' "




Art....4/10

Art??what art??there's a succesion of images that change after about 30 seconds of on screen time...you can almost say that this looks like a VN from this point of view

but for some reason,it worked...it added to this anime's WTF factor
but i can't give the artwork more than 4 :p,poor Toei...




Sound...9/10

on the other side the music AMAZED me,it's an incredible OST for a little ova,I enjoyed every single background music,and it really compensates for the art problem
if your an BGM fan you're gonna love this ;)




Character...6/10

Characters?yeah they're not many characters,only 2(3 if we add the old hag)
there's the guy that falls in love with the girl,and the creepy girl of course :-)




Enjoyment...9/10

I don't know why,but this is REALLY enjoyable...my eyes were glued to the monitor for as long as this played(excpet for when i left to get me some icecream from the fridge :p)
maybe it's the music,or the dream factor...i don't know,but this is really entertaining!




Overall...7/10

on overall i gave this a 7 becauseof the music and entertainment factor :p

and here's the probable question you'd ask me if we were face to face...

Should I watch this?
Yes,if you like deep stuff...no,if you think Mars of Destruction is the best animu ever made.


anyways I hope you liked my review^^,
Rob.
