Going into this I didn't expect anything special, but was pleasantly surprised when that was exactly what I found.

The art was simplistic. I mean that in the best way possible though. High quality and flashy effects just aren't needed for this. In fact, using simple and cute art like this was a smart design choice, as the subject matter is rather dark.

All of the songs were great. The mood of each episode was defined by its song and I appreciated that. There is no voice acting, so nothing to say about that.

The story and characters had a surprising depth I didn't expect. After the first episode I thought it was a moe sketch comedy, and almost dropped it, but the second episode kept my attention and by the third I was hooked. The third episode came and I was surprised how accurately they depicted a couple that isn't socially accepted. The fourth episode took a surprisingly drastic turn, and I fell in love with this mini series.

If you enjoy social commentary in your anime, or even just anime that make you think about the current social situation, I can recommend this without much hesitation. The cute art might put some people off, but it's deeper than it first appears. Don't watch this if you don't approve of interracial couples, as that is the main focus of this series of shorts.
