Synopsis

Somewhere in the school at noon, one might hear the sound of two girls playing table tennis together as they wait for time to pass by.

As if by fate, two students—Sakura Adachi and Hougetsu Shimamura—stumble upon each other on the second floor of the school gymnasium. As they gradually foster a budding friendship, their feelings for one another only become more ambiguous. Growing closer by the day, the two must learn to navigate their contrasting personalities as well as determine the depth of their affection for each other.

The nature of this relationship gradually shifts when one of them starts to develop feelings beyond the boundaries of a platonic relationship. Even so, Adachi and Shimamura must realize if forming a bond stronger than friendship will bring them closer or tear them apart.

I loved Adachi to Shimamura and I heavily recommend this to anyone who likes similar anime such as yagate kimi ni naru but here are the things I think it did well and what I think it could’ve done better.

This anime has great story telling where it shows you the perspective and inner monologues of both characters which is my favourite way for romance to be portrayed as it shows you what the relationship means to both people rather than just one.

This anime is also very cute in its portrayal of the relationship with a kind Shinamura who has almost everything go over her head ...

It was so cuteeee. The character development is a standout feature, with Adachi and Shimamura undergoing significant growth as they come to terms with their feelings. The anime captures the vulnerability, joy, and confusion that come with the exploration of one's identity and emotions during adolescence. Visually, this series is a treat, with a soft color palette and subtle animations that perfectly complement the emotional atmosphere. The overall aesthetic enhances the viewer's connection to the characters and their evolving relationship.
The positive reception when this anime was live is well-deserved. It resonates for its sincere approach to the yuri romance genre, offering a refreshing and heartfelt ...

‘Adachi to Shimamura’ should go to the trash for its ridiculously slow development of story.

The plot is kind of realistic, however, word realistic is a derogatory term here talking about plot. In the domain of non-politically related plots, realistic means mediocre or further, dull. The heroines talk and think about the same things in each of the 12 episodes, but no fundamental difference is made. In the end, it seems that nothing do occur. The heroines literally do nothing for their romance. The plot is only flavorless water; the climax is hot water, which is hot but still flavorless.

Compared to the dull plot, ...
