First Love

I was initially excited upon my find of First Love's, Smile Again and Smile Again After Chapters having been adapted into a Hentai. Then came the straight realization of Hentai, not really being capable of executing works that would at least be great. With Digital Works and Y.O.U.C leading this, I should have known for the better that this adaptation would be nothing more than your general 'material' for the audience it is meant for.

First Love's First Episode is not truly worth the 27 minutes it runs through. There have been some additions to the Original Story for the Hentai to properly fit the half-hour ... mark, and I find these unnecessary. The Original Story, left alone as they are, would've probably played much better by themselves within the space of 15 minutes. (Innocent: Shoujo Memoria compiled two stories into 12 minutes, and our brother-sister couple could have done just that.)

Hentai Studios within the lineups of Suzuki Mirano and T-Rex, or Mary Jane and PoRo, wouldn't been nice in picking up this project. I am critical in my assessment of First Love because of my original love for the Hentai Doujinshi. I just wish that an adaptation was done better.
