I first watched this series in 2012 when I was 15, this was one of my very first animes. All I remember is that it had good humor and it made me cry a lot, it sat as one of my all-time favorites for close to a decade.
I now, in 2020, at age 23, have just finished rewatching it to see how it holds up. I was turned off from the very first episode, it immediately tries way too hard to be funny and falls into a lot of anime cliches, but that's to be expected given the time it was created. Honestly, the try-hard,

This isn't a "retelling from Rikka's perspective" this is literally just scenes replayed from the anime, some of which Rikka wasn't around for.
