Thanks for clearing that up. i loved Sakurasou so when I saw the recommendation I thought "hey, if it is really like sakurasou, I might actually rethink choosing not to watch it!" I'll probably check in on it to see if it turns out well anyway; I haven't read or heard of the source material and it doesn't seem to be appealing to most people. I'm not intrigued by the concept enough to watch it, so you really saved me!
No love triangle(yet), no bullshit drama that makes no sense(yet). This anime looks very promising so far and characters are all likable. Usa and Kawai seem to have good chemistry for a good romantic development and that sasquatch-looking guy was hilarious.. Fuck Sakurasou.

This, not sure why everyone is saying "it's okay, it's not Sakurasou" when the only difference is that the characters might subjectively be more or less annoying.
I personally found Sakurasou's characters far more annoying, but I guess it depends on whether or not you prefer an obsessive/nympho girl and an actually retarded girl to a bookworm and a borderline/alcoholic girl.
Lol @ anyone who loved or even liked Sakurasou, just lol. Sakurasou was literally one of the top 5 worst piles of shit I have ever watched, right up there with Guilty Crown and Kaze no Stigma.
There is literally no reedemable trait about that show. The fact that this show is NOT like Sakurasou is why I'm watching it.

Hahaha cry some more, see if I care. Good job just trying to use the line in your signature is seem so proud of.
Iv always quite loved the assumption of trying to prevent immature and easily avoidable arguments by preventing or hindering provocative statements is seen as "crying"
listen dude ill just lay it out, I dont care if you like or dislike whatever show, but being a dick about it and trying to force your own views on everyone else is really immature and uncalled for, we dont need to all agree and disagree on some objective truth to one's quality as a show and having unpopular opinions are a good thing as they signify independence and individualism, however when you try to force that individualism on others it creates unnecessary problems.
I'm not asking you to conform to someone else view on a show's quality, im asking you to stop trying to get others to conform to yours

I like how some of you idiots are rating this show down after one episode just because some random guy said it was like one of your favorite shows. Fucking butthurt dumbasses.

Why would they rate it down if it's similar to something they like?
I liked Sakurasou too. Why do some guys have to bash it? And if you think it's trash then fine but you don't have to force your opinion down other peoples throat. Also I think you are exaggerating if you're saying it's one of the worst show ever.
I don't mind you bashing Sakurasou if you've seen the whole series but some of you bash it when you didn't even finish the whole series and that kinda pisses me off.
Jose07 said: why do you hate it? was it not made similar or like how the manga/light novel was made or what?
The following is some of my reasons
The anime contained high doses of forced melodrama of the worst kind, problems that could have been handled with just talking were dragged out for the sake of drama, most of the cast try to act as unreasonably as possible to invoke that said drama. It had terrible character development, even though I hate Sorata with all my heart, I would agree that he received adequate development, the same can't be said for the other main characters. Shiina who is just your generic dandere ( emotionless type girl) was mainly used for fan-service, humor and for some type of new pet fetish. She doesn't have any character traits outside of her archetype and you can tell that author didn't bother with her because he knew people will just like her for her shallow personality. She was sidetracked in the second part of the show to prolong an unnecessary love triangle which the outcome of was painfully obvious as a result she wasn't giving focus, which made her development iffy. She used to only speak mere sentences from time to time but somewhere in the second part, she just bursted into emotions, crying and fully speaking her mind. Which was very awkward and odd, it's felt extremely unrealistic.
The other characters falls into the other commonly known archetypes. ( Jin: the playboy who supposedly has ''feelings'' and doesn't want to ''dirty'' the girl he loves. Misaki the genki girl. Nanami a tsundere. And if you take the whole struggling with failing and what not from Sorata, you will realise he is your generic rom/com protagonist, incompetent, dense, wimp, weak-willed, oblivious to others feelings, hot headed, painfully average and mediocre in everything, etc)
The anime's theme was supposed to be about reality, hard work and failing or something along those along those lines but it was really unrealistic how high Sorata expectations were or his attitude towards certain characters and situations. The anime also contradicted it's theme and itself and characters in the episode before the finale. Please watch that episode and tell me that's not the most cheesy, cringe worthy, appalling, laughably bad and unrealistic episode you have ever seen in your entire life. To be honest even Ano Hana drama was miles better than this.
But to make it shorter, I greatly dislike it, because of the second half of it, and the direction it took.

This is really off topic since this isn't even a Sakurasou forum. But...I just didn't enjoy the show. The characters were annoying. The main guy screamed all the time. No concrete ending. Also, the themes the show brought up like hard work vs. innate talent were really interesting, but they didn't really flesh them out. They just mentioned them all the time when Shiina would succeed and everyone else would fail. (Also, I know it is an anime and tons and tons of anime do this, but it annoyed me that they were just in high school but between them they were creating games and anime and manga. Those are not normal standards to judge yourself by.) The show was really angsty and I cringed a lot while watching it. People comparing it to Toradora kind of blew my mind.
Did you never consider that what you like might be shit and what you don't isn't?
Nope, best taste master race checking in. Although I have admitted numerous times in the past that maybe I have shit taste to some degree because I didn't care for TTGL that much.

No dude, I'LL lay it out. You are making an assumption that I am shoving my opinion down people's throats. No I am not. Show me where. Right now. Show me. I'm waiting.
Oh that's funny, you can't. Expressing my dislike for the show doesn't mean I'm forcing my opinion down anyone's throats. This is exactly why I said you're just looking for an excuse to refer to the line in your signature lmao.

Wondering the same thing as the guy above.

Do you really me want me to list it all out? It's kind of lengthy, but I will.
Again, no one's opinion is being forced down someone else's throats. People need to stop whining because there is a strong vocal majority that disagrees with their opinion. I am dead serious in saying it's one of the worst. Misaki is borderline Downs syndrome, and Mashiro is already there.
Unfortunately, I've seen the whole series. Every last second of it.

Lol. Top 5 worst piles of shit you have seen, yet you give it a 6. http://i.imgur.com/ZaLM9wf.png
You obviously didn't hate it as much as you are saying you did. Put your School Days rating in there as well to show off your "best taste".

Oh wow, thanks bro, I thought I had it down as a 5. Should have checked, don't want people thinking I liked it more than I really did. I've never gone below 4 or else I would have dropped the show right away.
And fucking LOL'd hard, did you seriously think School Days was a serious rating? I really thought it was obvious it was a troll rating. Almost all of my MAL friends have it rated a 10, maybe it's just an inside joke between us only and not as obvious to the rest of the world.
See for yourself, out of the 22 of my MAL friends who have watched it, exactly half of them gave it a 10/10. #20 rates everything a 1, and you can see that on his list yourself, so I won't count him. The others are mostly 8s or 9s and I assure you those are not serious as well. We actually all just tricked someone into watching the whole thing about two days ago, can link you to that too if you want.

Contrived, overdone angst, plus the story goes in circles during the second half. The technical qualities are quite good though, thanks to a top notch directorial and scriptwriting team. Nevertheless, the problem goes right back to the source and premise.
That said, I think this premiere is pretty bad, albeit in different ways.

Don't trash talk Sakurasou cause it's one of J.C. Staff's best work.
