Ajimu Kaigan Monogatari.. Ahh. Natsukashii.
This anime was a dated one and yet, i had the luxury to watch it only last month (January). That is how i am deprived of anime time. huhu
Seriously, I have inhibitions in watching 4,5,6,7,8 parter anime. That is mainly because I might not enjoy the story or there might be no story at all. But this anime proved me wrong.
This series is an attempt to picture a teenage love, heartache and romance. It was compressed into 4 episodes at the cost of smooth story progression. The story isn't original at all but hey, isn't Ajimu cute? That's all that matters right?
Kidding and cuteness aside, the soundtrack of this anime is quite GOOD. The hawaiian themed music is a little uplifting. I remember myself googling for the soundtrack after watching the series but failed miserably. If anyone here has it, you know how to contact me *wink wink*
Ukelele (is it?) playing girl is a major plus. Singing girls are a major plus too. And that credit goes to the seiyuu. Her voice is very consistent throughout the series. You can notice that everytime she sings, the recording isn't a recycled version if you know what I mean. This is highly evident in the scene where Ajimu started crying in the stage.
Some recommendations. This anime could have been better if no ecchi scenes were incorporated (or am i just sensitive?). It just ruins the wholesome image of the main character. And yes, something is wrong with the love story. It should have been ME. haha.
To give a hint on the major plot, it is your ordinary love story, one you can see in soap operas. Boy meets girl, boy wants girl, girl hates boy, girl loves ex, girl falls in love, and so on. I can't find anything special in this anime. But still, a worthwhile watch if you're into love stories. 7.5/10. I am so generous. -_-
