(Thoughts) White album despite it's plot is definitely one of the best romance stories. I feel I could watch it again and again and never realize it's full potential. This is the perfect portrayal of unfaithfulness despite trust, and selfishness despite guilt. Totally a sad anime for sure, but I think it was worth my time and philosophy; It touched on every point a romance needs, it kept me intrigued and thinking, and never let me be happy. This is why it's a perfect portrayal of relationships in real life, the struggles that come between them, and human desires that exceed the realm of possibility.

(Concerns) I suspected that White Album 2 would be a continuation of this but it is not which saddens me quite a bit... Disregarding the incomplete story many say that WA2 is a masterpiece where as White Album isn't, which I won't pick to say which is worse as they both are better in some places worse in others, but I think that the original White Album which is set 10 years previous is a masterpiece in it's own right.

(Extra) The characters besides the "Main" heroine(???) and a few sides all have deep personalities and connections that tie them together, which helps make the story more fun to think about and leaves you curious because they never allow you to peer into their true thoughts. The music both opener and ender are great.

(Disregarded Thoughts) I'd like to talk about the MC's philosophy... His philosophy is based around the idea that the women around him are what make him; Which despite how it sounds I respect it quite a bit. He has something he calls the goddess of the day which is basically a declaration he makes to the women whom makes the largest impact on him that day, this can be something they do to help him realize, the own fortitude, or a favor done by said person. This doesn't explain it, but moving forward disregarding the fact that the MC is a douche, I can't blame him. His girlfriend who is supposedly the main heroine has a pretty shallow character besides her facet as an idol, even though she had yet to debut he only saw her a few times a year.
