Well, that was a nice series overall. Maybe a little heavy on the drama during the episodes with the Bard, but other than that, I enjoyed it. May they live happily ever after I guess?

It was ok in the early episodes, but later it started to get a little boring

Hmm. Quite agree. There's no real problem in the series and simply telling their daily life as is. At first I thought there will be a tragic problem or enemies approaching. But it's still enjoyable though.

Grandmother's Farewell Song added such a flavor to the fantasy/historical setting. Makes me want to come back to this series later just to experience it.

Livi's early return had so many elements of Mr. Darcy's early return to Pemberley I just about cried. XD

Aaand the respect flows back into my heart. GG


Strong start, strong end, meh plot, but the red thread of Livi and Nike's relationship was woven throughout and carried us home. 8/10

The lower raters for this show justify for low rating as getting "bored". Seems legit.

IT'S A TENDER RAIIIIN ~~~

''So... Have they done it?''
They'll have to force them I think, with a bedding ceremony »=)

In all seriousness, it was a great episode. It was oddly bittersweet for most of the episode until the ending.

That grandma have such a beautiful voice, it's like freaking impossible :O
But I liked her song better than ''Tender Rain'', more emotionnal.

So everything end well, our couple is still immature as ever and they'll continue to rule the world with hapinness and singing :D
Is it me or the father of the the girl who got kidnapped and almost raped hired the two men who kidnapped her..? o.O

How can I give this anime a lower score after such a cute final episode! It is kind of sad that there probably won't be a sequel. Bumped my rating to an 8/10.

Right. I should comment.

This was actually a very enjoyable anime; surprising since I don't fancy shoujo.
Loved the main characters and comedy and all, but the drama felt pretty formulaic and corny most of the time sometimes.

It was nice to see different songs from the other girls (especially the grandma).

the second part was a bit rushed … they could have done more with this last topic (maybe in another season, also the part with the rain country and therefore describing more stuff in the sun country with the many people in the castle and so on in the first season). yeah, 24 episodes would have been better … but, it was a great show with a nice, fresh concept and some good lines were spoken. Nike is a great woman. ^^ i give this show a good 0,85. =)

Bittersweet episode

Nike leaving her home and then coming back to the Sun Kingdom where she and Livi aren't together much. To be more exact, Livi spends his day at work and they don't see each other until Nike goes to that place at the very end of the episode.

It must have been very painful for Nike to be away from Livi for so long. To not feel his kind words, body, and his compassion.

A kiss at the end to end the episode.

8/10 in my book for the show.
IMO, show of the Spring 2014 season.

Lol. Bradwin brought a lot of women in the palace. And everyone was having fun until the two arrived. The prince in the white horse, gave me a chuckle.

This is a great series. I had fun and enjoyed more than I ever thought. Enough for me to get hook and watch it closely. The romance never felt annoying or feels dragged out. It was sweet and romantic, but seeing a shouta and older girl in a relationship disturbs me a little. One of the few animes I've found uniqe, a hidden gem buried under numerous cliche of animes. The story is captivating and well done. I'm happy to have watch this that got me hooked since the first episode.

8/10. I can clearly say this is one of the best anime this season.

This series certainly lived up to its name, both delivering a wonderful experience as well as showcasing the beauty of love and nature. The range of emotions Soredemo Sekai made me feel throughout was fantastic. The comedy had me roaring, the sweet moments were heart warming, and the drama felt consistent with the lighthearted nature of this show. Watching Nike and Livi's romance bloom was satisfying. The music was absolutely lovely, especially the grandma's farewell rain and Nike's tender rain melody.

Overall, it was a good romantic comedy series. I like the characters of both Nike and Livius. The comedy and drama was well done for the most part. The development of the relationship of Nike and Livius was okay but it felt rushed at times. This series needed more episodes.

Overall, I give this series a 7/10.

Obaba's singing was pretty good~
Nice one, Charisma dude :3 He got them ladies all over the place ahahaha.
Seriously, I think Sun king can just visit Nike whenever he wants. He is the Sun king, after all.
That version of IT'S A TENDER RAIN~ was <3
White horse for the win ahahaha. The kiss was nice, though.
It's pretty stupid to think that Sun king's height prevented me to enjoy this show more, but oh well.
I will read the Manga someday~ Thank you ^^

One word to describe this: Beautiful.

Totally cried like a baby when grandma was sending Nike off through her singing.
Loved the opening for this episode as well, def put a smile on my face. Court full of girls LOL

I must admit the rain song is pretty good as well.

awwwwwwwwww at the kiss at the end :'))))

Overall a pretty damn good series and it has left me wanting for more, each episode didn't leave me unsatisfied. Miss this series already..

Last episode was good. Really I would've been just fine with the first 1/2 of this episode. The second half of it was pointless IMO. The first half was really awesome. When the grandma started singing I had a huge smile on my face. It was fantastic.

The whole show I rate 7/10. It wasn't extraordinary but it didn't let me down either.

Pretty good romance, even though on the surface the last episode feels empty, somehow, it just seems like the perfect ending.

that fucking pink dress gotta go....

show has no element of surprise and therefore bland as fuck

brb we already know they're going to blow everything away with their hug and kisses
brb not a single dramatic event happen

super mediocre plot, fun characters, good music (minus 'tender rain' english part), okay visuals

kisses are pretty rare in anime these days, so I guess it's a treat for most of you betas and females

This is definitely a 9/10!! It was fun watching this anime!!
I didn't really expected it to be funny, as i read the plot.
I really love the romance <3 Arghh!! Livi-sama, can you be mine? Hahaha anyways, Livi and Nike look awesome together ^_^ I love the songs regarding rain-summoning. especially the "tender rain". At first, I think Nike is not that gorgeous at all, but as i watch it, she's really pretty though. especially on her wedding dress at the Principality of the Rain.
Overall, It's A-W-E-S-O-M-E. I'm glad i watched this :D

Woah, Nike's grandmother's voice caught me off guard.. Her voice is a hundred times younger than her current age.. Did not expect that.. It's hard to imagine that her voice is like that..

Now this is a great romance anime.. The pacing was quick and some drama scenes were kinda forced but the cheesy or "awww" moments made up for it.. Also, the character developments got me hooked 'til the end.. I didn't regret watching this even one bit..
Overall, a great romance anime..

What an amazing way to end this series! Really beautiful I must say, at first I was totally not expecting this series to be this good but I was blown back by the quality in both story and character development and the overall romance combined with comedy was just perfect!

Poor series overall. Sure the ending and show had sweet and fun moments overall but it hinted at plot points, like the possible rebel factions and then abandoned it like was nothing. An assassin tried to kill the king and then... nothing comes of it. Random characters appear and then vanish. Very inconsistent. 6/10, was enjoyable at parts but disappointing.

6/10, would have been higher without awful tsundere arc and TENDER RAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNN over and over until I wanted to bang my head against a wall.

Also, this show would have been better off it had been able to focus on one or two main concepts instead of bouncing around from thing to thing like a kid on a sugar high. I would have liked to see more about the rebel factions and priesthood, and the growth in how Livi learned to interact with people. I don't know if the manga just didn't care about those things, but it would have made for a better show, and a more logical backdrop for two people to fall in love.

Also, dafuq with the lack of modern technology and then RANDOM MICROPHONE GONNA HAVE AN OUTDOOR CONCERT!!!!! Please stop.

HAREM PARTY WHILE THE ROYALS ARE AWAY! ROFL!!! ECCHI MINISTERS!!! And of course a quaint happy ending. ^~~^ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQa6TRfTwP4 ending scene with rain song, slow and deep as it should be ( thought it could have been deeper and more powerful, its just a show.) 7.5/10!!!!!

I really liked this series for some reason @__@

The plot isn't really that special or anything but I like both characters so muuch. Somebody skip the time and make Livi a teen bishie!! But no that would be stupid.. I would probably wait until the manga is finished and read it then.
You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing that we call "failure" is not the falling down, but the staying down
