The story follows two childhood friends, Kenji and Nanami, who only realized their feelings for each other after certain events in the story and thus the two starts a new kind of relationship. Lamune is simple, cute and as straight-forward as a childhood friend romance as it can be. There is no overarching storyline - actually I think I just spoiled a third of the story by giving that synopsis. The show heavily focuses on slice-of-life and is mainly driven by romance and a bit of drama. While Lamune doesn't really bring anything new to the table, it's really soothing to watch. Sometimes you just have to take a break from watching all those over-the-top teenage melodrama.
The music and voice acting is good, character designs looks great, but the animation quality is subpar and sometimes almost cringe-worthy but for an anime with a low production cost it's passable.
If you're looking for an anime with lots of heavy drama and plot twists you should just skip this one because this is definitely not for you, but if you're just looking for a light-hearted romance anime that's easy to digest then you might want to give this one a try, well I certainly didn't feel like I've wasted my time watching this.
