Love is such a difficult concept to grasp analytically. To a logical person, its very existence breeds chaos, confusion, and worst of all, addiction. Love compels, love pulls, love creates, love destroys - I would argue love is the most powerful human force. White Album 2 ignores the typical Hollywood-esque bland high school romances and sets in motion the most feels I've had in recent memory.

This won't be like my typical reviews, in that I break down each and every category. I'm just going to pour my heart out by saying, if you want to feel something move inside you, watch this beautiful anime. There are some cheeky, corny moments, as well as a few archetypal and stereotypical characters, but once the story gets rollin' (oh, it goes by so fast) you soon forget.

Though i can't personally relate to any of the characters, the way the story progressed made them see so real. Cartoon references aside, I felt each and every character's sharp emotional responses, and since the story is set in senior year of high school (not too long ago from my own life) and the finality of it all, it helps solidify a very personal view of each character.

Perhaps the most surprising theme is the music. I enjoyed the songs, the piano, everything was well written and well put together. The background music, the songs, the opening...everything just screamed well done.

If I haven't convinced you already, please just watch it. 13 episodes, you can finish it in a day or two if you have nothing better to do, especially in the summer.

It was an emotional rollercoaster I normally would refuse to ride. But it's a ride I'll never forget. Haruki, Sestuna and Touma. Names that'll stick with me, forever. Look, it's snowing outside.
