Que Chegue a Você: Kimi ni Todoke

Kimi ni todoke is a marvelous love story with fleshed out characters and near perfect pacing.

Unfortunately, that doesn't go for Sawako's beloved Kazehaya, as he often is an enigma. Mostly he doesn't say much, and when he says something it's rather hollow. First he is upset that Sawako distances herself from him, only to grow so distant himself. He absolutely doesn't act like you would expect from a boy in love. That irritated me a lot, especially towards the end.

Most conflicts are rather contrived, and that's okay as the show doesn't dwell on them and the characters aren't overly unreasonable as they tend to be in anime.

I absolutely love the art style, which changes to doll like animations in comedic scenes, which there are plenty.

Season 2, on the other hand, is absolutely terrible. The characters haven't grown in any way, there are so much forced and silly conflicts, Kazehaya grows dense and is really annoying, and they shouldn't have introduced more despicable characters. Also season 2 has only half as many episodes.

I loved this show because it had a really healthy relationship in it and it showed a development within the characters.even my sister who does not usually watch romance anime really enjoyed this one!I really recommend it!

If the Kuronuma didn't say Kazehaya every other word, I would have enjoyed it more... if name dropping was a drinking game, you would be drunk by the end of the first episode. I never understood why anime producers or writers feel the need to have the MC or the MC love interests name dropped so much. From Me to You, despite this quirk, holds a special place in the hearts of many fans. The story of Kuronuma and Kazehaya is one of growth, understanding, and the gentle unfolding of young love. While the frequent name-dropping might seem excessive at times, it serves as a reminder of the deep connection between the characters and the impact they have on each other's lives.

As the series progresses, viewers are drawn into a world where small gestures and heartfelt conversations hold immense weight. The character development is subtle yet profound, allowing audiences to witness the transformation of shy, misunderstood individuals into confident, loving partners. It's a journey that resonates with anyone who has experienced the complexities of navigating relationships during the formative years of life.

Ultimately, "From Me to You" is more than just a story about frequent name mentions; it's a touching exploration of personal growth, friendship, and the beauty of finding one's place in the world.

With her long straight black hair and full bangs, Sawako Kuronuma has been likened to the protagonist Sadako of horror film The Ring since elementary school and has developed extremely low self-esteem. Her schoolmates even call her Sadako. In high school, she meets cheerful and popular Shota Kazehaya who treats her with kindness. This boosts her self-esteem and she starts to come out of her shell. Her journey from being an outsider to popular is filled with amusing, though sometimes exasperating, introspective musings of a teenage girl.

This animation depicts first love in all its angsty sweet glory. It can be vexing at times because of how clueless and overthinking Sawako is, but the start of the series is compelling enough to keep me watching. And it was worth it.

This show reached through my laptop screen and touched my heart. The vibe of this show is immaculate the art style and animation are so comforting and soft. I think what was the most beautiful thing about this show was easily how amazingly considerate and kind the characters were. This show makes me want to become a better person, I want to become kind and inclusive like my king Kazehaya, or considerate and helpful to others like my queen Ayane, or patient and calm like Ryu. The characters are constantly worrying about how other people feel and how what they do might be affecting their friends. They are constantly putting other people before them and its so inspiring. I also really like Ryu and Chizuru's relationship, to be honest I really like the childhood friend trope, and lets just say it's something I dream to experience as well. But the way Ryu declares that he wants to change their relationship is so wonderful I have no words to say. I first watched season 1 and 2 and from there I finished the manga. When I watched the first episode of season 3 I immediately started tearing up man, something about seeing this masterclass of a manga get a third seasons was truly too emotional. I believe if everyone in the world watched this show we would have explored our entire solar system, world hunger would have been solved, and everyone would be friends. This show is not only a good show but it's an example you can follow. If you want to change your life for the better, watch this show and then read the manga, you will not regret it.
