Kimi no Iru Machi

Just watched the first episode and I'm not gonna lie...I freaking love it! Maybe because I like slice of life anime and those with romance and strong drama. But what's unique about Kimi No Iru Machi is how the story is told; the scene cuts into different time zone back and forth which is really awesome.

The music is really heartwarming and fit for every scene. There are even moments that gave me goosebumbs. For boys: yes, there is a bit of ecchi in this... every anime need a fan service moment right? :D
The Art and animation is great. Really great. They detailed the movement perfectly and you could tell the animators did a darn good job. The background are beautifully drawn and every single spec looks realistic.

Not gonna spoil much, but i guess I can say that there is some love triangle going on. Its just illustrated in a unique method, by taking you into the past and then present again. This anime is definitely for people who are interested in another emotional rollercoaster ride, so enjoy!

Well thats it for now, can't wait for next episode :)

I would just like to say that squall69r should read the guidelines for reviews before rudely commenting on others revews.

The plot which they used from the manga (chapters 58-68) was an important turning point. More than that the OVA made me see this arc from a different perspective, which is great since watching something I have read and knowing exactly how it'll turn out is boring.

Yes the animation does seem to have made the characters rather different and well, worse than they are portrayed in the actual manga but when looking at the bigger picture it didn't really matter.

The artwork may seem lacking when compared to the manga's almost shoujo like character design but the composition and the music more than make up for it. At the end of the OVA you'll be emotional and not complaining about the character design.

I liked it! And can't wait for the second one to come out in June read more
