Sad the emotion. It's about a boy named Narumi Takayuki thats in highschool. He starts dating a girl named Haruka. And things get anghty from there.


[spoiler="2nd Episode"]
Well in the second ep Haruka gets in a car accident and is in a coma for 3 years. During that time Narumi starts dating Haruka's friend. When Haruka wakes up she has no idea that 3 years have passed and still thinks that she is still with Narumi.

Just finished watching it. I thought I was going to cry after the 3rd episode. After that, the anime just ticked me off.

Now don't get me wrong, I really like the series. But I don't like the way the characters were handled. It seemed that the good characters got the shaft and the bad characters lived happily.

Content Note: There is quite a bit of sex in this series. So viewers beware!

Bumped due to thread merge.

Since I'm posting here already, Tycho's note seems corroborated by some of the plot summaries (and their attached screen grabs (!)) available out there. While I haven't seen the series myself, it seems troublesome given its H-game roots.

I agree, good series and very emotional. Episodes 2 and ep. 14 are tear jerkers, i had do hold back my tears. It is dervived from a h-game, which turns some people off, but it's not hentai. There are some/couple mature scenes like sex, but at most it's an fuzzy outlined body(the best i can describe it). But it's a really good story. I would recommend people seeing it, it's a "slice of life" kinda story. In the end the story had me re-examining my own life. The only other anime that made me do that was Grave of the Fireflies (which i also held tears back for).

yeah there is nudity, but you can't see anything. like i said its only an fuzzy outlined body at most. I mean if anyone ever watched Sailor moon and can get past the sailor transformation (japanese verion) w/o being offended or shocked, then this shouldn't be too big of a deal. But it is more for a mature audience though.
