    Capture those hard to describe moments of being human

    This story catches those small, everyday actions of being human. Those awkward silences, fluttery feelings, and pauses that are so hard to put into words are beautifully animated here. The characters are so easy to relate to and they interact so easily. This show is so mellow and restful but it covers hardships and trauma with grace that is rarely seen. I can't recommend this story enough. It made me laugh and fan girl and think - I love this story.

    My God what an emotional bomb

    I just binged watched this and let me just say, even though I'm still excited since I finished it 15 minutes ago, I don't think I've ever been this touched in an anime before. It builds up the tension and then when it explodes it leaves you speechless. I loved every minute. I strongly recommend it.

    The Drawings Made Me Fall In Love

    The drawings made me fall in love. my heart is filled with different emotions every second of the anime. I do not know what to say. This anime just made me very happy. I really want everyone to watch. Thank you to those who made this anime.

    Heartwarming you AMAZING!

    If you want a BL (Boys Love) anime which will warm your heart, make you cry and WILL make you crave more, look no further! This is the type of High school romance anime anyone would love.

    You genuinely get a feel of what these characters are going through. Their backgrounds get explained but by bit, which makes you realise everyone has their secrets, their sad past that they rather not want to talk about or aren't sure how to express. You learn that communication is key, not only in love, but in healing the heartbroken...

    A true masterpiece. I love BL, but most I've seen are just not really my cup of tea... BUT THIS IS PERFECTION!
