Okay, while watching this anime, i had so many evaluations, i had to post a review.
The story focuses on a carefree and ambitious guy, Crow, as he is called by his friends. He discovers Air Treks (Machine In Line skates, AT) in his cousin's room and thus enters an adventerous world of ATs.
I will go on step by step on this one
Story -
1 word - Amazing!
The way a simple equipment is developed into an intricated potential plot including, gods, championships, etc.
...
The story only pics up after around 8th-9th episode. I was going to give up on the anime but fortunately i didn't. After that the story provides a fast paced action - adventure!
Art -
I will have to go with 8 here but art isn't the main feature of this anime, anyways. The animation is quite clean and modern.
Sound -
Okay, this is an anime with one of the best, if not the best, background music ever. The way it is synced with the story and scenes is brilliant!
Character -
Characters are very well defined. I mean great character development. If the 8-9 episode delay in the story has served anything, it is this (character development). By the 6th episode, i was pretty sure that all the characters are hardcore straight up PUNKS!
every character has a significance in the story and it is brilliantly shown!
Enjoyment -
9/10
It can be feel good but then intense, and then comedy/romance and then intense. I enjoyed it just like a roller coaster. Going up in anticipation, coming down like thunder but ending unsatisfying.
Overall -
9/10 for being Dang AWESOME!
Everything was managed very well. This anime is going down in history along with Death Note and FullMetal Alchemist.
---------------
Misc -
This anime contains lots (and by lots I mean A LOT) of fan service, especially in the beggining!
The story doesn't have a proper ending, it leaves us in a particular chapter of the manga, so if you tend to get connected to something quickly and find trouble getting over it, go for the manga and not the anime.
Priority: A must-see anime, comes right after Death Note, FullMetal Alchemist and Code Geass. If you want to see the best on animes, this one is right there at #4 or #5!

True Tears is a typical Romance - Slice Of Life cliché anime but NOT a typical Harem anime.
The story revolves around Shin's feelings towards the 3 female characters, Hiromi, Noe and Ai.
The reason i said it's not a typical harem anime is that Shin is actually reviewing all the situations and the girls, not just getting together with one and then another. It is a genuine story with genuine characters.
The story does go on really slowly. The 13 episode anime could've been condensed into a 5 episode series too. The story is actually weak with nothing distinct and special except for its genuineness.
...
However, ing the ending, everybody is considerate and understanding , which isn't natural at all...
The story is really Slice of life, which actually works against it, as there is no character development. Till the third or fourth episode, i couldn't even recognize the characters or their names.
However, the anime has great animation and music. It's a feel good anime more than anything. A great thing about this anime is a teen's (here Shin's) thoughts and evaluations of their lives is shown (in the form of art). Not many teen drama animes have it.
I picked up this anime in the recommendation column on Myself ; Yourself's page. Maybe that's the reason i was disappointed by this anime, i might've expected too much. So, head's up there isn't much similar to M ; Y in true tears and it isn't as good either.
Overall : 6/10
Priority : if you have already seen like 25 animes and aren't in a mood for intense, just something short term and light.

Myself ; Yourself does look like a Harem Anime OR a corny slice of life anime on the cover, but if we know ONE thing, it's never judge an ANIME by it's cover!
Animes can surprise when you least expect it and Myself'; Yourself doesn't offer any less.
The anime starts with the main character, Sana Hidaka's farewell party who has to move out of the town he has grown in. His close friends, all cheerful and innocent are present.
5 years later, Sana comes back to town only to find his closest friend, Nanaka Yatsushiro completely changed. While, others have severe problems too.
The story follows the
...
Life of Sana who tries to get along with his friends, slowly discovering all their miseries.
High School, Romance and Slice of Life may seem to be all the anime contains, but after a few couple of episodes, the story reveals a darker and intense side to it, about the character's past and present.
Myself ; Yourself deserves a watch if you consider yourself an anime fan, but its not the best anime out there.
The story could have been faster at some places, and could have had more of intense.
M ; Y revolves more around character relationships more than romance, the main feature which makes it better (than) and distinct to School days.
Overall: 8/10
