| shoujo with unnecessary drama aren't really my favorite but i guess i'm gonna keep watching this for a while :3 |
| Had low expectations and holy shit this was awesome! Best first episode of any series this season. I absolutely loved it and I'm not 100% sure why that is. My expectations have now shot through the roof, so I hope it keeps it up. |
 |
| I don't think I posted yet but, this was pretty good. I enjoyed it. |
| Great visuals which created a pretty good atmosphere, but I'm not really convinced with the romance. OK start. |
| Lovely first episode. I am a fan of more serious shoujo. The female protagist, Mei, isn't someone who annoys me. I like her views on life & it is easier for someone to relate to her. Unlike Sawako from KnT which seemed quite unrealistic to me. Also, I prefer Yamato over Kazehaya. Never read the manga-- So, I didn't expect that an old stalker would appear. I like the more mature feeling, I hope it will have the style of Paradise Kiss/NANA. |
| The start of this anime had a depressing atmosphere to it with the piano music in the background it also looked a bit grim with the girls trying to bully Mei. But it gradually started to get a sweet atmosphere to it with a romantic ending. It certainly was a impressive episode full of emotion which gave a good impression of how Mei life has been up till now. And it gives a feeling of a brightening future for Mei which is something she definitely needs. The episode also raised some questions towards the characters in it mainly a few of the background characters interested me. Looking forward to the next episode of this anime. |
| Decided to pick this one up for a change of pace. The character design reminds of Peach Girl. Well, let' see how this goes. |
 |
| This pretty much parallels Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun. However, this takes the dramatic romance route, whilst Tonari takes the rom-com route. It really is nice to see such similar anime to be completely divergent with its execution. Both have already opted to play the kiss card, even though its conventionally meant to be the finishing event for shoujos. I wonder if this is a new trend that I was completely unaware of? The only gripe I have with it is the male lead's hair--it's ugly :S 5/5 First impression: 8.3/10 |

| I was pleasantly surprised by this, I am never normally a Shoujo fan AT ALL. I dislike the genre ALOT, but this, I enjoyed this quite a lot. I think Shoujo is starting to grow on me considering there is another series this season that is s Shoujo based that I am enjoyed. Aha. But yeah I loved the storyline, It reminded me of Kimi Ni Todoke in the aspect of a unpopular girl meeting a popular guy, I loved the stalker scene simply because I liked how he went to her aid as soon as she called him n_________n; Now I disliked Kimi Ni Todoke but enjoyed this ALOT. |
| Yup, another Fall romance I need continue to watch ^^ |

| I think i will love this show. |
| Ooooh, loved it! |

| Really amazing, the pacing, the soundtracks, the voice acting... And the ending by Suneohair is yet again fantastic. This is the no.1 on shoujo front this season for sure :D |
 |
| Liked the first episode. Yamato and Mei look interesting enough to me. Can't wait for more. |

Orulyon said: I actually liked it better than the manga version. Perhaps its because of the amazing voice acting of Sakurai Takahiro XD Pretty much this. 8D But dang, the art is really pretty~ |
| Looks great. |
| I really liked this episode, and i'm glad it followed the manga so closely. I hope it keeps going in the same direction as the manga ^^ |
| Another anime with great potential... I'm loving this season. :) |
| This was a really good first episode! All the characters look so nice and the voices fit well. It seems like all shoujo anime this season is moving pretty fast -- they all have the two leads kiss within the first episode aha but that's fine w/ me!!! |

| Bland. Predictable. It will probably be very mediocre. A safe bet I'd say. |
| Come visit my town // I apologize in advance for my second-rate English Join my fan club // Improve the transport network |
| Quite promising first episode. Story reminds me a bit of the manga kyou, koi wo hajimemasu except that the guy is actually nice. |
 |
| Decent first episode, I like really like the art in this one. The piano is kinda iffy for me and it seems they made Nakanishi nicer at the start of the anime than the manga. I'm not sure how I feel about that. |
Kurini said: Am I the only one who thought that the stalker was kind of good looking too? XD Imo, he looked better in the manga. *sniff* And I don't think that's because of the hair colour. |
| Feels like kimi ni todoke, isolated girl x hot boy. This one is more predictable when stranger came and she asked the knight for help, typical shoujo setting but I like it. Along with tonari this season, both will be enjoyable. |
| The animation is beautiful ^o^ Everything was nicely placed and Mei's misinterpretation of "exchanging numbers" was funny xD |

| Oh, right. Now I remember what I missed the most from the original has: The facial expressions are much better in the manga... (+ other details, but that's a given, I guess) |
| well i dont really watch shoujo but i tried this out i like it so far. I'm glad she is playing hard to get. |
| woah! it was so lovely it felt so different than the manga but the part after the ED was a bit weird.. |
| Predictable but still interesting to watch... can't wait for the next episode. |
| That was not bad. Let's hope it stays that way. Now the ending song will be stuck in my head for days. |
| Wow I thought Tonari was good? This blew that episode completely out of the water in terms of premise and execution. I really liked the female lead because the reasons why she outcasts herself are pretty realistic. Though there was an immediate first kiss, the context in which it happened made it less annoying than in other shojo series. |
| Am I the only one who thinks the dudes hair looks retarted... anyway this felt really slow comapred to Tonari and the first kiss felt way too sudden. I'm gonna stick with Tonari, 1 shoujo is enough for this season. |

| Damn, I find that I suddenly have developed a liking toward Shoujo Anime. Maybe because I've started to hate all those mediocre harem/romance anime which come out every season, where the protaganist doesn't choose a girl and the story is predictable and full of cliches. Funny though that both the Shoujo animes which I'm watching this season ( This one and Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun) both begin their first ep with a confession and kiss. More development in one episode than you'll see in whole season of many Harem/Romance animes. I hope that the pacing is not too fast though. |
 |
| I was going to read the manga, but then heard about the anime airing, and so far so good!! That was a great episode!! Though, out of the Shoujo Trio of the Fall season, seems like my favorite (thus far) is Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun Speaking of the Shoujo Trio, what's with this trend (spoiler for those who have not watched the first episodes of the trio): |
| 4/5 I enjoyed it but I gotta admit, Tonari did better. Anyway, cool OST - I like the piano and clarinet songs. I haven't read the manga but oh goddd, everyone except for the main two are either bitches or perverts. I love Kayano and Sakurai as the VAs. They're great. Char designs I don't really like but I like the fact that we don't have people with light blue or purple hair. I like realistic colours way more. |
meepsheep said: I like the fact that we don't have people with light blue or purple hair. I like realistic colours way more. Yeah, this. ^^ |
| good start |
| The best start of an anime since months. I can even say i loved it. |
| this show is AWESOME!!! for me, definitely has that maid sama / kimi ni todoke feel to it, especially with yamato. he's so slick and cool, and mei is so tsundere. :P im definitely gonna love this series, cant wait for the next ep |

| Really loved the artwork, just looked very realistic. Sort of like Sakamich no Apollon. Looks like they are gonna have a decent pace, which is good. |

| thats weird way to fend off a stalker... |

| Very sweet romance. It's very comforting to see how Mei's outlook changes. I can't wait to see their relationship develops. |
| I'm officially a shoujo fan. This season has some great ones. They're a breath of fresh air. |

| A decent start for a shoujo series~ Will keep watching just because. |

Shounen romances have their wish fulfillment too, although it's certainly not the same types that are in shoujo. There's also plenty of shitty tropes on both sides. |
