You have to wait till the last episode to let the magic happen so be patience while watching this series 💓

Let's get one thing clear, this series is blasphemously underrated and under-watched. It is one of the hidden gems that came out this year. It's heartwarming, soothing, and relatable. The reason behind it is because of its aesthetic simplicity and its mesmerizing realism, it feels relatable and close to heart due to the shyness and awkwardness. These things which are rarely seen in romance series across any medium. The character designs are simple yet interesting, plot is simple yet captivating, story is simple yet heartwarming, animation is simple yet eye-catching, and the soundtrack compliments the emotional and romantic feel of the anime. I have no real criticism for this series as it lays out everything perfectly. There is no extravagant scenery or any breathtaking visuals, but the thing that makes this anime special is faithfulness to real life. I don't think I've been this satisfied from a 12 episode anime ever.

The shows brings out light on a romance between two young shy people, which is never seen before and the rich story is so incredible and wonderful. It's a must see anime.

A very cute, sweet, and innocent romance anime about two middle school students who fall in love and develop their character along the way. The show is overall very enjoyable to watch and has many heartwarming and adorable scenes throughout. It's interesting to see the two main characters discovering romance for the first time, and eventually maturing and learning from their experiences at middle school. That being said, there are only some very minor issues setting the anime back, such as some cringey and awkward moments, but overall the positives far outweigh the negatives. If you're a fan of romance, go watch this right now, you won't be disappointed.

PROS: + Outrageously adorable and cute romance + Viewers can relate to the realism of the characters and situations + Great musical score + Satisfying ending with proper closure

CONS: - Some bad CGI animations - Some cringey and awkward scenes between the two MCs, but this eventually goes away halfway through the show - The anime is a bit too serious in my opinion and could use more humor/comic relief

My heart felt so heavy after finishing this incredible romantic story; made me think of what it would've been like for me to experience love at that young of an age.

Along with a heartwarming storyline, vivid & colorful animation, and meaningful, irreplaceable characters, I would say that this slice-of-life is too good to watch again as I wouldn't know if I could hold my emotions back!!

I highly recommend this to anyone young enough who doesn't understand the meaning of a meaningful, heartwarming, & romantic relationship and hope that they find something similar as they progress in life!! I wish I could, but I guess not everyone has a love story that endures for a lifetime. Someday, I hope I can discover my significant other and give to them as much love as I can. Till then, I wish everyone a great day/night and hope you find a special someone worth sharing your life with!
