This anime gives you this kind of mix feeling while watching each episode. One time you could be mad at the situation or feel bad about it and can weep for days. (well, for me that is...) But it'll want you to continue to watch more and can drive you insane for the next episode. Throughout the anime, you will have those moments where you can hear yourself giggling or laughing out loud. The comedy here in the anime comes where you least expect it which is a good thing. The word "Hobiron" kept me going for days with a smile on my face and that expression on Ohana's face, priceless. "the best things come when you least expect them too" right?
The art was really splendid. The scenery of each place tells how much effort the creators put into the anime. It's like all the beautiful painting coming together and creating this one big masterpiece.Also the inserted songs blended in so well with the art and the timing of the scenes. The inserted songs really was a good add showing either what is happening or what the few episode afterward is going to be about. When you start listening to the inserted songs in the anime, you'll feel an impact in your heart and just want to cry. A really emotional anime basically.
The situational scenes as in characters getting into conflicts really develop the story. It could change a character thought and feeling toward one another which help the characters in Hanasaku grow. One time they'll be getting into a fight, then later you'll see them make up. The characters do have those little fights in between, but it show how life really is like. It also show life's problem, as in living with a parent who doesn't support you as much as other parents, or being alone and working when you are young. You might hate it in the beginning but you have to grow up sometime and take responsibilities. Everyone have a certain age to grow up even though you're not an adult.
To sum up this review, Hanasaku was a really good "Slice of life" anime. This anime always make me think about life and the future. Thinking, "what i should do from now on" and "what i should be taking granted for". Not all children are as lucky as the others. Also this anime shows me to keep believing in my dream. Too never give up on it and to live it out to the finest. Keeping you dream alive is what helps you throughout life. Guiding you to what makes you happy. This anime show that if you work as hard as you can, and to make un-breakable bonds with the people you love, There will be nothing to fear about losing your dreams. You will have those sad moments, But please, make the best you can and always enjoy you life to the fullest! Bonboru~
