(3.73/5)Started off in a great way. It had a very distinct vibe with its light use of music or lack of it at all, slow pacing, and that more quiet vibe that really spoke to me. Unfortunately, Shiina quickly lost her edge and became the perfect anime waifu (basically she got Asuna'd), the plot started becoming the average anime romance stuff, and the whole anime just lost its vibe. Still enjoyed it though. Really leaning towards a 5 or less but Shiina is my type, the plot and MC also fit in my type of romance. So saved by my preferences, but quality wise it's pretty weak. 6/10
A bunch of weird sentences I had to see the translation for and an adequate amount of new vocab. Pretty standard experience but there really were quite a bunch of sentences where I didn't get the meaning and had to put on eng subs. 3/5
12 episodes of pure wholesome, sweet, cuteness with some hilarious moments mixed in. I loved the show :D
Assuming you accept the premise, the two leads feel very organic and mature (except for of course being unable to admit their feelings). It's obviously a very cliche trope, but I like the way it's executed. The supporting characters are fun, tho basically just there to help the MCs eventually get together. Mahiru (female lead) reminded me a bit of Fern from 葬送のフリーレン | L29 with her adamantness and the way she gets kind of pouty, but she's less extreme/unreasonable. Similarly Fujimiya, while having some self-esteem/deprecation issues, is a good contrast to characters like Ryuutou from 経験済みなキミと、 経験ゼロなオレが、 お付き合いする話。| L24 (extremely passive 陰キャ type who's afraid of everything). He's generally moderate, level-headed, and (mostly) confident in himself.
Anyway, the show's not trying to be deep or anything, and some people will get bored, but I found it to be a really enjoyable, steady ride. I think it's a great show for language learning as well, and it's gotme interested to read the light novel | L30.
