This is Yabuuchi Yuu’s “Mizuiro Jidai”. This is her story, her journey, of coming to understand the world – ever so gently. As this chronicles the pivotal events in Yuuko’s three years in middle school, Yabuuchi tells her story as she would tell to her younger self, with guidance and reassurance.

If you might not have noticed, Yuuko kawai sounds very similar to kawaii Yuu ko, which is literally cute Yuu child (same kanji for Yuu, the author’s name). This is Yabuuchi’s fond memory.

This is my first anime review here on MyAnimeList, so here goes!

Mizuiro Jidai is such a pure and heartwarming coming of age anime. The story focuses on our protagonist Kawai Yuuko who is a friendly yet sometimes clumsy girl figuring out who she is as she lives out her last year of middle school. Throughout the series, we see how she forms relationships with her best friends and childhood friend who soon becomes her love interest. The art is very 90's and the soundtrack is soft and soothing, fitting for the series.

The show tackles topics that I believe stay relevant even after the 'Aqua Age' read more

This is one of the best school romances ever made. Everything is just so real and the characters feel like real people and are all likeable, it's just a heart warming story about the troubles of teen times and how to overcome them.

A must watch. Btw the people on this site are way too negative. Most of them just hate it for looking old. Which is retarded. Not to mention old anime actually makes characters looks like real people and not fucking squeaky moe dolls with big tits. This is one of the best









This is Yabuuchi Yuu’s “Mizuiro Jidai”. This is her story, her journey, read more

Anime in Real Life: Harajuku

Today's topic is the area inside Shibuya that made it big in the 90's with Gwen Stefani's hit song "Harajuku Girls". Harajuku has gained a reputation for being the center of alternative fashion such as decorer, gothic lolita, and punk. But in reality, it's much less strange than you'd think!
