Typical story. Girl loves a boy who's unattainable and the athletic 'prince' of the school who's been burned by love comes to her rescue. This causes her to reevaluate and fall for him. The girl herself is not too bright and relies heavily on some compatibility site or test and horoscope stuff while the guy is too invested in tennis and thatsball we know about him. Oh and that girls like him a lot.

I never expect shoujo romance to be deep especially when the characters are all 16, it just usually doesn't happen. With shoujo romance you get what you expect usually. A sappy but ... heart warming love story with some beautiful perfect boy that you may or may not admit to wanting. Accepting that being the standard we can move on with the review realizing that were not looking at some deep and super meaningful forms of literature, if you want that go read some Faulkner or Steinbeck. Also the story is 6 chapters, that's it.

The artwork is well done.all pretty traditional nothing that is going to be super memorable but nice to look at.

The storyline itself is typical but execution of the story was pretty cut short, since it was 6 chapters all the action was fast moving. One chapter would pass and about three things at once would happen. They'd be in and out of love in one chapter. It appeared that there were a bunch of half made characters. Two characters try to get in the way of the romance sort of but those characters and the situation aren't developed at all reading you kinda confused.

The ending came fast and it appeared all problems were resolved in 2 pages leaving you wanting to rip your hair out since it shouldn't be that way.

This story has some nice artwork but seriously lacks development and creativity. Most of it has been done before and has been developed at least a little more and if not developed, it at least is a decent length so the stretch of events seems a little more realistic.

Story - Honestly it is a slow start. For a while into this series it was just 'good'. Watching it I just thought 'oh its a typical reverse harem just more serious'. Boy was I wrong. In so many ways and I'm so glad I was. The story starts off with the base line of Harry setting up this game for Kajika but grows into things so much more. The story flows beautifully and there are many moments when dots connect.

Art - Gorgeous. The art is amazing. The eyes especially. I was blown away by how expressive the eyes were. Eyes are key factors ... in this story and the artists did a good job taking their time to make them gorgeous. When you look into the characters eyes it feels like they are talking to you. You feel their emotion and meaning. All of it makes your heart ache in a good way.

Sound - I have never been so moved than by the ending song. Wow. Its so beautiful it at one point moved me to almost tears. The intro is good and the sound effects are good. They dont distract at all but go with the story.

Character - Highest of High. The amount of development is amazing. Most reverse harems it's obvious who the main character will choose. That and there is a lack of depth for the rest of the characters, clear evidence they aren't the chosen one. But in this story each character has a strong back story leading up to who they are. Every single character is fully created. It's one of those stories, at least for me, where I cant find the villain. No matter how much one may seem 'bad' they still give reasons that make me feel only pity and love for them. I fell in love with each character for different ways. Making all the characters likable and still have a solid story is hard but they did an outstanding job on it.

Enjoyment - Get through the first like 10 episodes and it'll start to all make sense and become far more enjoyable. The beginning is very slow its one of those 'its boring but ill watch it anyways...' so bare with it through the first slow moving episodes and it picks up fast.

overall - if you asked me at the beginning of the anime my opinion would be different but this is hands down one of my favorite animes.

It's so meaningful and deep and really inspires me. I love that about anime. For whatever reason, anime reaches out to me more than most stories. Reading stories or watching the 'normal' channels doesn't reach out and inspire me even close to how anime can reach out to me.

Maybe I'm watching the wrong stuff but Anime is beautiful and this show captures the beauty and how inspirational it is. It really makes you reevaluate yourself, others, and life.

I sincerly hope you enjoy this series as much as I did and get as much from it as you can. It has a lot to offer besides a fun pass time and guy candy. It really is so much more making it a beautiful anime.

This show is drama after drama which I find is the only enjoyable thing about this anime.

The story I found was kinda 'WTF'-ish. As soon as you think it goes one way it turns another but its not in the way thats enjoyable it seems like the writer/creators just wanted more drama so they threw stuff together so if you like constant drama left and right enjoy this anime.

to me its one of those animes that you keep watching and youre not quite sure why youre still watching it and youre not 100% sure you like it but you want to finish it anyways.

I found ... each characters pretty annoying. Just certain things they did I wanted to slap each character and roll my eyes but at least i have a connection to them.

the art isnt terrible but its not my favorite, i find it a little weird i cant explain it though.

One of my favorite animes mostly because of the depth of the story. (MINOR SPOILER) ill be honest the ending confused me it was defiantly no the direction i expected and i felt it was almost unnecessary but still enjoyable. (END OF SPOILER) anyways I actually love each character and watching this how honestly inspired me to be a better person.

Tohru's 'look on the bright side' attitude really inspires me and how she handles Kyo's anger streak and helps bring Yuki out of his shell. I can honestly say this show has inspired me most out of most any other show (anime and non anime) ... that i have seen.

Its a nice romantic comedy but it has its dark points too. There are reasons, explained in the story, why each character are the way they are and each are important.

I loved this series and it was long but didnt seem drawn out which is wonderful. I will say after watching this show I grew such an attachment that I felt a little empty when I had to say goodbye to the characters.

I love that each character has depth and you get to learn their story its not focused only on the two main leads. There are little 'twists' but its stil enjoyable. I found myself multiple times laughing at the characters and feel sympathy for them.

This is a great action and romcom show that I would say is good for both guys and ... girls. Although there is a lot of romance there is also a lot of comedy and action so boys will enjoy it but its not over the top on the action blood and guts so girls, who dont enjoy that as much, can enjoy it.

demons arent frightening so anyone who may be like me, and doesnt handle 'scary' well, can easily watch this without a worry.

I loved this series. True the story line is pretty predictable and the relationships between the characters isnt anything too unique but if youre looking for something nice and light to watch and enjoy romantic comedies this is perfect. Everything I look for when I make a mental check list for what i want to watch in an anime is here.
Romantic Comedy - check
Non-obnoxious female lead - check
attractive male lead - check
non-obnoxious male lead - check
reverse harem - check
good animation - check

honestly that is my checklist usually if it has at least 2-3 of those components im down for watching and it has all of ... the above so if you have an interest similar to mine i would highly recommend checking this series out. if youre looking for a more 'symbolic' and 'meaningful' and 'dark' series this is defiantly not for you but still something nice to lighten the mood.
