Sure this show is based on things that make up a typical shounen anime, but if you actually watched the entire show, and noticed the depth of the messages they were trying to send, you'd see.
Everything about this show is simply beautiful. It doesn't try to hard to make it too gushy, and as the plot develops, as the show goes on, it just gets better and better.
I really liked how well done they portrayed the romance in these shows. It gives you a sort of feel that other media fails to achieve.
The main antagonist in particular is a guy who you can't help but like, even tho he's an antagonist, and it's just--tbh, I can't explain it. In order to understand, you'll have to watch the show yourself.
I honestly felt really captivated by it and I think anyone who watches this, whether they are anime fans or not will feel the same.
