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.
