STORYLINE
Let's begin... now! So, this story is about Sana, a teen who returns to his hometown. This storyline has been seen quite a few times actually. Here, however, the main character is completely lost even in his hometown. His friends are found one by one and before I spoil any more of it for you, i'll say this: the show really is dramatic. If you see my profile, you'll notice that I describe this as the first time I cried because of an anime. Well, the feelings of each of them are so authentic that they can reach this reaction. The story takes a couple of turns along the way which completely shake their world. Other than that, this show actually changes a little the already cliché episodes in the beach or sports festival.
MUSIC
The reason this show doesn't get a perfect 10 ( or 5 if you want to be strict and use the star rating ) is because of its music. The music is good , unfortunately , good is as far as it gets. They are relaxing and exciting, but there is no special effect or great performance. Even though , the scene in which I cried, for you who have watched it's the train scene in chapter 11. There is the only scene I can think of that reaches your heart.
CHARACTERS
The characters in this show are very typical ones, with the exception that each of them has a distinctive quality that saves them from falling to the fatal, deathly pit of stereotypes. They have good backgrounds and each of them has a deep relationship to the main character, except one, but again no spoilers.
ANIMATION
The art design in this show is actually kind of dull since it goes for a darker tone than what I usually watch. Now you're asking YOURSELF ( oh, bad puns return) why this show has 5 stars in animation. The reason is because the characters look more human and the art really matches with the intensity of the storyline. Even though this last comment is an opinion of mine and is completely subjective, I love the main character's red eyes.
I MYSELF THINK THAT...
...this show has a really great storyline and characters. If you can get in anyway related to the characters and try to fell what they do, oh boy( or girl) you're in for a world of tears. Great show and with enough comic relief to save it from a novel, but not too much as to make it a comedy.
