Preliminary (8/25 eps)
I may not care at all for the game Karuta, and in all honesty if they switched the game to anything else, seriously anything else, I would not care. I would honestly enjoy less focus on the actual gameplay of the karuta, but I entirely recognize its value as a plot device.

Anyway more importantly it's the characters, the art, the interactions, and just their general life that drive me to enjoy this anime. It's difficult to discover anime with a realistic, not absurd story (seriously how many anime do we need a year about a guy with his pick from a loli to a big busted dope) This one definitely gives me a calm enjoyment which makes me wonder what will happen next.

The art of this show speaks for itself, it's some of the most pleasing I've seen in years so I won't comment on it.

This story started out wonderfully explaining back story all the way back to their childhood with a few episode flashback, which was neither too long or too short in my opinion. Now the story delves deeper into revealing characters, themselves, dreams, and ambitions. I can only hope to discover more anime like that doesn't make me skeptical of every single plot development. Here's to hoping.
