My Grade: A

Well, I've actually had my eye on this anime for a while and finally got down to watching it. Though it was kinda rough getting through it because I couldn't get my hands on a few episodes I needed, I finally finished it! ^.^

The first episode gives you a little introduction into the main guy's life. After half-way through the first episode, you get a proper introduction to the rest of the main characters. Though it is kinda rough getting through the first episode, it gets way better from then on. For the first half of the series, it is all a fun romance comedy competition for the main guy. During this time you get the basic outlook of each character. But the second half is when it gets very serious. It will mess with emotions and even your first thoughts of the characters. The second half focuses on the deeper personalities of the characters. It is when the drama drops upon your head like a bomb. You will laugh. You will cry. You will love this anime!!

Basic Story:
