Synopsis

In the peaceful little town of Sakuranomori, a group of young friends are about to bid farewell to one of their own. Due to his parents’ business plans, Sana Hidaka has to move away from his quiet childhood home to the boisterous city of Tokyo. Though it pains him, he must say goodbye to his precious friends—the kind-hearted Aoi Oribe, the spunky Wakatsuki twins, Shuri and Shuusuke, and the cheerful and upbeat Nanaka Yatsushiro. But even though he is reluctant to leave them behind, he believes that no matter how far apart they are, they will always cherish the memories of their friendship.

Five years later, Sana, now a 16-year-old high school student, returns to his hometown with the hope of restoring his old life. However, he quickly realizes that although his town may not have changed drastically, the friends he left behind are not who they used to be. Unsettling shadows loom over Sakuranomori as his friends hold new secrets and bear burdens that threaten the bonds they once shared.

I watched Myself; Yourself twice. Once, back when it was new. I was in junior high, I believe. And a second time at 28, now in August 2021.

The story is very memorable. I pretty much recalled 90% of the plot, as I was watching. This story is very 2000s anime-like.

The most memorable plot-point to me, was the old lady with the animal and human sacrifice. I think that it's ...

Mixed Feelings
Myself; Yourself was released over a decade ago, but it depicts some issues still - unfortunately - recurring nowadays. It's an anime with sweet and funny moments, although it is mostly about friendship, coming of age, depression, GAD and PTSD disorders. It can certainly get very dark sometimes, so trigger warning. Although I enjoyed how they displayed the mental illnesses, with some character developing a lot more than I expected (at first I figured it would be mostly about Sana and Nanaka), it still felt a little "vague"? I wish other characters would've been more exploited, and that would require more episodes. The ending felt ...

This anime is old, so as a watcher in 2023 I wasn’t expecting animation to be mind blowing. That being said, the art is pretty and the animation is OK. Is that it for this show though?

Story: 5
If your looking for an anime that starts of “cutesy” then slowly falls into a darker story then you may enjoy this; I personally love these kind of stories but this particular series failed to capture real depth. Keep in mind it’s 13 episodes and focuses on an array of character plots that quite frankly feel rushed and incomplete for the most part. It does contain some potentially ...
