| Me (almost) two years ago: mayukachan said: ...Is that it? LOL Doesn't feel like a proper last episode. Let's go, second season! We need more on Natsume, Sasayan, Yamaken, and everybody else. ;) Overall, I'd give 7 or 8 out of 10 for this season. (Still deciding on score) Reason being, there wasn't much of a plot since it was driven by the characters. The characters other than mains should get more screentime. I definitely prefer Yamaken x Shizuku moments because they feel unique and they're cuter. xD Haru x Shizuku moments were kind of expected and not that interesting. And I'd still agree with myself back then. Second (third if you include manga) time through and yeah, Shizuku is a really boring protagonist and Haru is a boring romantic interest. I love Suzuki Tatsuhisa and I think he does Haru's character well but he's still so goddamn boring. He's more like a comedic relief character (like Takao or Hasabe who are also voiced by Tattsun). Like before, yeah it's a shame that this show is only one cour because nothing really happens overall other than slight character and romantic development. I think this series' main weakness is the lack of focus/direction. It's more like a slapstick school romcom rather than a shoujo romcom with a focus. By focus I mean like Bokura ga Ita which was about male lead moving on and finding love with female lead, or Hirunaka no Ryuusei which is about a girl learning about feelings and her daylight shooting star, or Orange which is about parallel universes and changing the future. Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun does not have a solid focus. Sure, it's about a cold female MC who learns to cut back studying and making friends and also falling in love with a delinquent boy but that's... that's it. There's nothing else to it other than a couple of pretty decent subplots (Sasayan's...Yamaken's...Natsume's...) that don't even get screen time. I still prefer Yamaken and Shizuku LOOL. He's just so much more amusing to watch and I can see more character development potential for him. Final score stays the same, 7/10 mostly because the comedy is done well and it isn't a bad show all in all. Anyway, I only rewatched this so I can finish the manga which I put on hold for a very long time. Onto it! |
| I finished the manga last night, and for people who didn't like the anime because it was too nonsensical or comedy-centric, please check out the manga which has a better SOL feeling. |

Would you recommend start the manga from chapter 1 or start where the left in the anime. Keep in mind I am not a big fan of mangas. Start where it left off. |

| What a fucking letdown. The series started well cause its hilarious, but all we get is a neverendingback and forth with no conclusion Natsume was 5x more interesting to watch than Mitty. Mitty is obnoxiously indecisive and fickle; meanwhile Haru is annoying and clingy |
| The entire anime was fun and I laughed a lot but the ending completely ruined it for me. I expected more. That might be the reason I hated the ending so much. It feels like I wasted my time watching this even though up until episode 13 I enjoyed it. In the beginning I wanted to give it a 7 or 8 out of 10, but because of the last episode I wanted to give a 6/10. Still, the ride was fun though so 7/10 is my final answer. |
| Well that was disappointing. I was hoping for something to happen. I was hoping for Shizuku to finally go out on a real date with Haru. There was a lot of build up but not a lot of action at the end. Hopefully it will have another season, but I"ll have to give it a 6/10 for now. I'll increase the score if there is another season or OVA. If this is it for the anime, it's just feels incomplete. |
 |
| Pretty funny watch, never failed to make me laugh every single episode but this last one was pretty anticlimactic. |
| Very nice serie! I liked it. It reminds me Ao Haru Ride serie... :) |
| Maloween 2017 Main Candies   |
| A solid anime. Enjoyable all the way through. Wish there were more episodes. 9/10 |
| Well after the ending of this, I can honestly say, now that I know each character very well.. I think Yamaken fits better with Shizuku and Chizuru with Haru. O.o I dunno, at first I liked the idea of Shizuku and Haru but their personalities clash so much that I'm not so sure. They look more like best friends that get on each other's nerves. |
| Love this series. Pretty relaxing but I don't feel yet satisfied after this episode.. I want more!!!! Be nice to have a 2nd season but I don't know much about the manga... |
[center] *>.>[Spoiler][/spoiler]<.<* [center] |
| So many plot points unresolved but I loved the series overall. It gave me a good bunch of laughs. I was also hoping Yamaken and Shizuku's relationship would develop. If this is how they end it I'll be reeaaalllyy upset so I hope there'll be a season 2. |
| Honestly, I'm not sure how I feel about this ending, but the anime really disappointed me a lot. I really loved the first few episodes, but after episode 5 it just all went downhill. The plot wasn't moving at all and I really dislike both Haru and Shizuku right now. Although the side characters were pretty enjoyable. I'll give it a 7/10 and I'll probably check out the manga. |
| this ending is so unresolved it hurts |
| i tried so hard to like the characters but by the end of the show i only liked sasayan. every single other character seemed WAY to self-centered. unbelievable. |
| It didn't look like the last episode at all! The series was pretty heart-warming and I wish they make a season two... |
| I honestly wanted more to this series. I wonder if I should bother taking a look into reading the manga. But a second season would've done nicely. |
 |
| I wish the relationship between haru and shizuku would develop it also seemed like there could've been a relationship between natsume & sasayan kinda sad nothing was shown about it except for a few seconds in the end of the episode when sasayan was blushing a little and I wasn't sure if it's because of the cold weather, natsume or both |
Chanaynay said: ezaya said: is that it.? already the last episode.? -____-" 7/10 My thoughts exactly. The ending felt underwhelming. Same overall score too. This was a nice watch though regardless. :) Yeah pretty much this. I enjoyed the episode, I just thought more things would of been settled and resolved for a last episode. |

| MAL: A community that thinks every anime is bad, but rates everything a 7/10. |
| pretty rush up I say. Want more I say |
 |
| To be frank, this series was good at the beginning. However, if this is the end... then really the anime could be anywhere. Haru and Miti only kissed ONCE in this anime. This is a disappointment. Anime was rushed and Mitti x Haru relationship was so mundane. I r8 6/10 that was no true ending. |

| Please, please make some more. |
| Onei |
| It's a shame it had to end like this, it kinda ruins everything build up I really liked it but i can't hide my disappointment. |
| Average the ending could've been better :/ |
 |
| I m disappointed with this anime, I expected a more interesting female lead, normally in romcom and shoujo it is the female lead that steals the show for me. Thank god for Haru, like he was soo unique I kinda enjoyed it alot, he and natsume carried the show for me when it was most boring. Like I felt the romance was developed in a way that didnt gave me as much amusement as I usually get from romcoms. It is still an 8, since the art was pure gorgeous and it had alot of lmao moments and Haru. OGHelios said: I enjoyed this series. Unfortunately it felt like things kinda plateaued halfway through the series Exactly my problem, too much back and forth between development that should just evolve and not stagnate IMO. Guess reading the manga is next. |

| A very pleasant story. Half way through I was more interested in the side characters though. Anyway, I enjoyed it a lot :D |
 |
| Expected more from the final episode but I guess this is all we get. Still hope there were more NatsumexSasayan moments, ugh. |

| started off better than 99% of romance anime and ended like all of them fuck and I was expecting more.. typical romance anime but oh well I did enjoy it nonetheless |
| WAIT. I just spent HALF a day watching a ROMANCE anime and the two fucking main character didn't even end up TOGETHER? Daaaaamn, I know that I'm wasting my time watching anime, but right now I feel even more like totally wasting time. 13 episodes and they didn't even kiss in the end? And why am I watching a romance anime in the first place <.< |
 |
| Nice ending, bad cliffhanger. It's probably not getting a second season since the manga was finished in 2013. Three years is a lot of time. I wonder if in the manga the secondary characters are better explained, tho. |
| Great character driven show, refreshing that it didn't have any of the overly melodramatic cringy moments that so many romance anime has. The story was simple and the plot progression was slow but I think it worked because the characters were all so likeable. I liked the open ending. It feels more realistic than if there was some big finale with love confessions and loud crying and all that stuff. This show broke the generic mold and spread out its "final episode in romance anime" moments through the show, even having the kiss in the first episode rather than the last. 9/10, underrated imo |
