| Such a beautiful series. Great wordplay on the title, and they deliver the content as well. One of the best, if not the best original anime I've ever watched. |

| I'm crying right here. Most satisfying love story ending I can think of. Well done, studio feel, Seiji Kishi, and to all involved! Absolute 10/10 for me. |

I was a year younger than Kotarou when I had to move and my relationship was still quite solid, we could barely see each other, like once a month. Nowadays, 7 years later, we're still together, living together now, though. And well, honestly, Kotarou is way more mature than I was back then so I don't get why it is unrealistic. From 1998... 7 years ago... now living together... 🤔 That would make him 19, its not exactly rare to be living wit someone at that age |

| Wow, wow. The character development in this episode alone, in this 12-episode anime, sends a chill up my spine. The ending is movie-esque. Truly "lost the battle; won the war" to perfection. |

From 1998... 7 years ago... now living together... 🤔 If you want a 'realistic' ending to your romance anime there are many out there, cases of childhood sweethearts ending up together are a thing my dude. Also you say 'at that age' yet they are anywhere from 13-14 years old and can communicate and maintain a relationship through text while also being able to see each other every now and again, not even mentioning facetime too. It's really not as unlikely as you'd like to think. |

Definitely, this just goes to show that fans still appreciate the craft of utilizing a great soundtrack and well written story, characters and magnificent cinematography. Coming from a fellow 3D Animator I have nothing but respect for this show. I hope the Studio knows how much people love this show, they deserve all the praise and money coming their way. Good Job Studio Feel, you did what your name set out to do. Well said bud! You simply took the words right out of my mouth. Thank you Studio Feels for this beautiful, pleasant and simple story! |

| Most complete romance I've seen in a while, wouldn't have expected it to be a LINE commercial. I appreciated the lack of heavy drama. Also, really like the shorts they had going at the start, too bad they stopped. I'm satisfied even if they kind of closed the door to s2. |

| You know watching this, the ending would have been very depressing without the "And Then". |
| This was a sweet and innocent love story that really felt relate-able with the awkwardness and approach to dealing with your first crush as teenagers. It was an emotional roller coaster of how they would succeed in their struggles together especially after the moving plot device happened. I was expecting a 5cm Per Sec type of bittersweet memorable ending. The after-credit ending i felt was too rushed but i guess gave a complete "ending" to the original story. I would have preferred the time skip ending to be something like : 6-12 Months Time Skip, (emotional music playing) - Akane leaving school to go home in new town, her classmates ask her what book was she reading in class or in her bag. - She replies a very special book or something important (zooms in to show author, Azumi her BF) - cuts to show Azumi writing in his office in publishing company or at home etc. - Azumi gets ready to go out. - See them both going on different trains (suns setting) both are smiling looking at LINE chat. - Turns out they are both going to be meeting with each other and their old friends, going to a bar or something to celebrate. - ends with Azumi and Akane holding hands as both of them narrate (how their relationship blossomed under the beautiful moon.) - end - I personally would've preferred this type of ending because it shows they succeeded in their LDR and as a viewer we wish them the best. |

| Anime of 2017 so far. Also, romance anime of 2017 so far. And underrated anime of 2017 so far. This was a great anime. The best episodes were 3-7, were they were chasing each other and having to deal with the love rivals. From episodes 8 to the end, I didn't quite love the anime as I did from episodes 3-7. I also didn't like the timeskip ending where they took it past the first year of HS, it kinda ruined the moment. But nonetheless, a great anime to introduce to beginners of serious romance anime. But I gotta say, that I probably wont rewatch it again. |

| aaahhhhhh... AAAAAAHHHHHHH I'm happy. Was all bittersweet at first with him not passing, and all the tears, and I was being torn up inside the entire time, but that little bit at the end with their Line chats was freaking adorable and sweet as hell and I love it. Anyway, while I did enjoy this anime quite a lot, to the point of near fangirling over certain moments, I must also say, this was slow. Like, one of the slowest things I have ever sat through. Some episodes had me feeling like I had been sitting there for an hour. And the added frustration from waiting for things to happen made it feel even longer. But again, I enjoyed this a lot, so I'm going with an 8/10. |

It seems you never had a gf when you were 12. You dont even think to pass the rest of your life with one person at that age and 1/10000 keep that relationship. Thats why I said i wanted a fucking more realistic end. omfg this weebs thinking they know about life All i was trying to say is that while not exceptionally likely some relationships that start out that young do work out. My parents met and started dating when they were 14 so i know its possible... So i dont think the ending was unrealistic.... And even so, im tired of those downer endings anyway... We had a happy and conclusive ending in a great romance anime.... a sad or ''realistic'' ending would have ruined everything they had been building towards in my opinion. And id appreciate you not insulting me as well, im not a weeb because i think differently. |

You know what's a joke? Your way of thinking, just because it might have not worked out with you doesn't mean it is always like this. Things worked out for me and I'm very happy the way it is. And I'd also appreciate if you could please not insult me. I was 13, by the way. But like SakurasouBusters said, who are you to judge? |
| Simple. Down to earth. Beautiful. What a great series. Easily one the best romances as of late. |
| Wasn't expecting much from this when I tried it out,but it ended up being my top anime this season. Happy and satisfied with the ending |

| The fast forwarded ending scenes really gave me FEELs! Truth be told though, this anime felt like the longer version (+happy ending) of that 5cm per bullshit-ending anime of all time.. Tonikaku I'm happy. |

| I not gonna lie I got Déjà vu from a certain train scene and farewell I think it was named 5 something XD and I was feeling bad for the young lads especially because that "End"… meaning that Kotarou finished his work but I was thinking that the "End" was a metaphor to their relationship... and I was starting to wonder what a great anime it was but at the same time such a disappointment that they didn’t end together but understandable and then came those words - "And then" and can you picture a grown man jumping out of joy when the after credit scene began... and the freaking icing on the cake was the final scene with the whole family. Wow, just wow... Happy Beautiful ending! *Standing ovation* ♪ヽ(´▽｀)ノ |

| Wow, what this show was amazing, in my opinion. Pacing was done really nicely. Still unsure why Hira and Chinatsu are considered main characters (most especially Hira, like wth lol). We don't even see how they end up, so that just goes to show how insignificant both of them really are.. But Aayways, I really enjoyed this series from the very beginning. I was a bit skeptical going into this show because I heard about it's 'slow-paced' romance, but I'm super glad that, despite it being slowly-paced, it clearly did not drag on. For an original anime, I'm really surprised. Azumi and Akane had such a cute relationship man. When Akane was crying at the ending, and then ran away, I couldn't help but tear up man... and lowkey I was just internally screaming at Azumi to just catch up to her lol. This definitely sucks for Chinatsu tho, since, she basically did what Azumi tried to do, which was chase after their loved one by going to the same high school. I'm curious to know how their high school lives went (like did they make friends, etc etc). But yeah, overall, I'm left very satisfied (thanks to the ED, glad they didn't just leave off with an open-ending/cliffhanger, then again, I wouldn't mind if they were intending to cap it off with a 2nd season/OVA). I think one of the main reasons why I liked this anime so much is because of how much I can relate to this. The relationship between Azumi and Akane reminds me exactly of my relationship with this one girl back when I was their age (which was like a couple of years ago lol). And so, watching this anime made me relive those memories all over again, all those times where we'd stay up late texting, have our phones on our pillows just anticipating the other person's reply, ahh lol. But yeah, overall, I think I'm gonna have to give this either a 9/10 or a 10/10. Yeah, that may be a bit high, and this may just be my bias opinion, but like, this anime just had me feeling all types of ways, and just holds a special place for me. This was such an enjoyable ride, and it just sucks now that it's over. Let the withdrawals begin heh ^^ |
 ♔ caught in the wonder ♔ |
| AoTS right here. 10/10. |
| “Are there some unseen roles that we have unknowingly set ourselves into, dictating the rules of engagement whenever we see each other, inevitably leading to us hurting each other?” |
| I still want more of this show even though it had a good ending. Ugh.. |
Genix said: That's not a compliment at all tbhdefinitely the best romance anime of the season. |

| Very heartwarming ending to a rollercoaster of emotions. I totally could relate to Kotarou all the time, and the end felt so good just because they managed to stay together over this distance relationship. Why don't they make a "Next Generation" as second season next, where we see their child having to go through his/her own youth problems with daddy/mommy giving them some advice from their own experience. That would be kind of cool. Would I rate (which I don't do at the moment) I'd easily give this a 9/10. It was an original, the characters were very authentic, and the otherwise neglectable plot was managed to be recounted in a way that still kept you graving for the next episode. |
