Preliminary (18/25 eps)
Kimi Ni Todoke is definitely one of my favorites of this season and perhaps of all the animes i've seen. And if you're into romance/everyday life storys, then this one's definitely for you!

It's basically about a girl name Sawako and something about her scares off some people so they keep a distant from her. She just never had friends but then one day, she meets a boy name Kazehaya, who's very outgoing and friendly and popular. She looks up to him and her life slowly changes after meeting him.

Story:
Even though i haven't finished the series yet, I know it gets 9 out of 10. The story wouldn't be considered brilliant or a real masterpiece, but it has a very good calmness to it and the story is enjoyable to watch. There are a few conflicts here and there, but throughout the series, it keeps good consistency and gets me interested as more the series goes on. I must say this series seems to go really really slow for me. But I don't blame the producers since the manga story isn't that long and they've got 24 episodes to fill. ANYWHOS, it's a cute love story and has alot of funny scenes.

Art:
I love love this style of art. It's very pretty and cute at the same time. The OP and ED animation are fantastic and very relaxing for me o.o
I can't really explain how the animation is, but it's great.

Sound:
I can't wait to get the OST when it comes out (or did it already come out hm..). The BGM are blended so well with certain scenes and they did a grreat job at it. I would say most of them are relaxing and very cute.

Character:
Man, all the characters are great in this series, even the 'bad' characters. You just can't help but feel for them and in the end, like them as well. Knowing that Kimi Ni Todoke is all about romance and slice of life, I definitely didn't expect a really evil character that wants to kill people, and that's pretty obvious.

Overall, I really enjoyed it so far and I know I'll still enjoy watching it until the last episode of the series. It's one of those shows when you can watch it on a relaxing sunday afternoon and what not. And yes, there are a couple sad scenes, espcially when watching what Sawako has to deal with, but in the end, it leaves you with a good feeling and i dont know if i should say this, but it makes me sort of happier? Anyway, try it.
