Well it wasn't that bad at all, I'll addmit I did enjoy'd it and a lot, specially the firsts 1-3 episodes, White Album had a lot of potential to become a good drama without all that much fucking betrayal and unloyalty, perhaps all this will change in the second season since it looks like Touya finally has his mind set up in Yuki, but then again, this last scene of Yuki calling him was quite odd, now the uneasyness comes to her mind, probably because she thinks hes being unfaitful to her.

8/10 for me.
I hope he wont be such a fucking douchebag as he was in this first season.

RANDOM: For a second I thought Touya was going to rape Mana in front of his house.

I had to listen to some Slayer and then some Rage Against the Machines after Yuki's song. Raining Blood FTW!

I really enjoyed this series with the complications of Touya. I think is not so easy to being in his shoes with a girlfriend that is busy all day and all that womens walking around him. For moments the show was confusing but even so it captured my interest and I really liked the ending. I go forward for next season.

7/10

This anime had its rare, few good moments.

Other than that is was just meh. All of the characters were pathetic. Especially Touya.. after all the sleeping around I wouldn't have been surprised if he had made a move on Mana, too.

6/10 barely

Wow. Definitely not 'School Days' as I expected it to be, my bad. Moving on to the next season to torture myself emotionally. T_T

holy shit at all the hate for this show....

it's basically a harem with serious atmosphere without the shitty comedy gags like 99% of harem anime out there.

Sure the male lead is fucking pathetic, but all other characters were fine to me.

And do you guys know how devastating it is for a female idol to have a boyfriend and be seen in public in Japan? She would lose almost all of her fans while her popularity becomes a joke.

Seriously, some of you guys are just not old enough or inexperience to appreciate this kind of anime...

Just go watch your shitty harem comedy clones over and over and don't waste time on this fine piece of work.

And holy fuck, I'm baffled that some of you people, especially females, cannot follow this show's plot at all. If your mind cannot comprehend the story development or are confused by it, then you should stick to shitty harem comedy as I've said before.

Pretty good episode actually. This series got saved by the cute tsundere loli moments! Mana<3

Pretty good cliffhanger as well. Might actually check out the next season, perhaps.

5/10 -> 6/10 (being extremely generous) regardless of the extremely stupid male lead.

It was a slow start. I'll give them a 8/10. It could've been lower, but I normally don't watch a lot of drama shows. It's not a Clannad or Kanon though. I guess it's different in a good way. Not too much action in the school setting. It took them a while to get to the storylines. I know Touya's dad collapsed 3 or 4 episodes ago. The cliffhanger was kind of expected because there's a second season.

I found the show interesting and alluring. I was able to watch this in one day. The main male character was a bit lousy, but the other characters did compensate for his lacking or poor qualities. Okay, time for the second season.

Wow this was quite the ride. But the way the characters interact with each other is so different from "the usual stuff" in anime which makes this series strangely fascinating.

Also this anime sure made a statement that a harem in real life can be quite nerve-wracking for all participants..

I want to see Touya x Mana. :(

Don't misunderstand, I like Yuki, but I find Touya more suited to be with Mana.

What a huge cliffhanger ending, wants me to directly watch the second season so with no further ado let's find out what the next season will offer us!

Up until now the series was rather depressive and developing quite weird but other than that it wasn't all that bad!

Overall not bad but could be better in many ways. 5/10

Who was that girl who bumped into Touya in fromt of the concert? She looked laike Yayoi a lot. Relative maybe? She was beautiful. I wonder if she'll play a part in the second season.

Yuki's song was great! The song she sang was White Album by Morikawa Yuki.

Damn! Yayoi was denied! "You're too cold. Much too cold." BUUUURRRRRN! I'm guessing when Yuki told him she loved him it gave him the energy to deny all of the others girls. I thjink it gave him confidence.

"The beginning has ended."

Till next winter? You mean right now! lol

I thought it was enjoyable. Although there were some parts that made me cringe.

Still unsure if I regret watching this season for not, but now I feel obligated to watch the second season too to get an ending.

I was hoping for some more drama but it felt like the season dragged on very slowly and 13 episodes later, still not much as happened. But this last episode seemed to be packed with new events, so here's hoping things pick up!

As confusing as all the other episodes.

What's up with Haruka simply coming and crying all the time never saying anything.
Or with the theater girl that let herself be treated as trash then at the very end she express her opinion then start dating the other guy ? And the other guy is always thinking about the MC wtf ?
And what the hell with the little girl coming to his house and always being around ?

What is this

Nice job Touya making moves on Mana. Couldn't seal the deal though. Should have invited manager and Haruka both inside.

I'll give this show a 6/10. I like harems but this was a little too serious without much comedy or charm. Good variety of girls though.

This is the key to harem right here:

Beautiful performance by Yuki.

These first 13 episodes were entertaining, but at the same time I found them forgettable. Meaning that after I watch the episode, it was just "OK next".

Even though there are things that should stick with you due to many things happening, I just couldnt get invested in this first half, and thus made the first 13 episodes forgettable but also entertaining.

Episodes 10-13 were great though.

Now off to the second half of this anime (episodes 14-26)

finished watching the last episode of season 1. I feel bad for Haruka. I like both Haruka and Mana the most because they have a strong personality, and despite being very archetypal characters they still have a strong reality-based presence. 
The MC is a scumbag, but he isn't the worst scumbag. It sucks because he was pretty faithful to Yuuki until a certain point, and there he dipped. I'm sure he can be forgiven but he has made some stupid mistakes. But I do kinda like his mindset or the way he perceives his life, he get's a goddess of the day. A pretty neat thing.
