Koitabi: True Tours Nanto

I would like this anime more exposed to people, its a shame only a handful know the beauty of this underrated anime.

I will keep the review short and sweet like this anime was.
3 romance story arcs, which are nicely composed, however, it felt personally like a trailer to me.

I firmly believe you can't go wrong with this anime, and if you like the first arc just continue watching the whole series.

FOR THOSE ANIME ROMANCE FANS, THIS IS A GREAT WATCH.

When I first saw that these episodes were only 6-7 minutes long I didn't think they could accurately capture a couple and anything they went through. Boy was I wrong!

So there are 6 episodes with 3 couples, which means each couple has 2 episodes. Each story was simplistic yet was able to give you a picture into each relationship. I really enjoyed each story as each was different and offered insight into different issues that can arise from being a couple or becoming a couple. I liked each character as their role meant something they didn't just play a meaningless ... part. They all complimented each other instead of making it awkward or weird even if it was about a break up or a fight.

I was surprised that there weren't more reviews on this. I really think if you are looking for an anime that can give you emotion in a short amount of time than look no further. I enjoyed it and there were moments that were cute, sad, and fun. My hopes is with this review you will check out this anime and give it a chance as it is worth it.

Three different stories linked only by love, but of different kind; same region, but different places, and through the love stories you might see places worth to be explored. Every single character is well defined (even if it's "only" a short anime), and different. Music is well composed but it could have been more "specific" for the settings. Overall it's very good, it engrosses you, even if for only 7 minutes.

A show everyone who likes romance must watch.

Story - 7/10

The three stories in this show are all sweet and endearing. They all develop well and, most importantly, really stay true to the genre. It is all pure romance.

Art - 9/10

The visuals are nice as well. The characters are drawn in a soft style that really suits the mood. But, the thing I liked most about the art are the locations. The anime is set in Nanto and the show puts emphasis on this in an amazing way. The places the characters are drawn the exact way it is in real life. How do I know? ... Because they show you pictures of the real life locations during the credits. If you love to see places that exist in real life in an anime you should not even consider skipping this show.

Sound – 6/10

There is not much to say about the sound. The characters their voices suited them well and the music went well with the atmosphere in the show.

Character - 6/10

The strength of the characters differs per story. In one of them the character development is better than the other, but overall the characters are likeable and add value to the story.

Enjoyment - 9/10

Even though the episodes are only seven minutes, I felt like I enjoyed myself a lot. Maybe because the episodes are only seven minutes, there is not enough time to add comedy sketches or lead the story astray. It is straight to the point, and even though this is uncommon in the romance genre, it works.

Overall - 8/10

This is more than just your regular short show. In those few minutes this show lasts, it will keep you hooked to the story and give you a happy feeling afterwards. I can recommend this show to everyone who simply loves the romance genre since it is just that; pure romance. The only thing I did not like about the show was that there are only six episodes, six episodes is not nearly enough for a show like this!
