This is my first review and this is probably the second most fitting anime for it (the first being Sakurasou no pet na kanojo). The reason for this is the ending I both loved and hated.
Cliffhangers are very common in American television shows and they work very
well because of the fact that in few short months there will be another season and we will get to see what happens. They keep us emotionally interested. However this does not work very well for anime's due to the fact that there are HUGE time gaps between seasons.
When
...
I saw episode 11 of this anime I knew it in my heart but I didn't want to accept that there was going to be a cliffhanger to close out the season. I love where the story was going because we have far too many romantic comedy harem anime's that close with an open ending so you as the fan can choose what happens next. I love anime's that have the closure where they choose for you because sometimes (at least most of the time) the guy ends up with your 'best girl' and you get to see the happy ending that you envision in the harem comedies that leave it open ended.
It is hard not to spoil when the frustration is fresh in my mind but I think that the anime creators made a mistake with how things ended up with this anime. I believe this simply because of the fact that the delay due to the release of the novels and the production of a third season is too long of a wait to stay invested in the show emotionally. Despite the fact that I am looking forward to the next season right now, I will lose interest in a couple of months and the new season wont be coming out for another year at least.
In conclusion, the story was getting very good near the end and honestly could've closed right then and there and there wouldn't be any need for a third season. However the cliffhanger on the least episode was a poor choice due to the delay cause by the novel's production speed. I am looking forward to and will watch the third season when it is released, however I am very frustrated that I have to wait so long.
