*outline*
These cliches usually follow the same pattern. The one that's more cold and closed off would take more time to like someone than the one who's more open and friendly. There was nothing cliche about this. And that's probably why it'll live in my memories for a while.


*analysis*
STORY : Exactly how I mentioned in 'outline'. Although the beginning was a little cliche, the continuing was not. The pacing was well thought out and the confession was the best. The rejections not so much though. I felt empathetic through each confession and before I knew it, every sweet moment/scene I started a whole monologue about what I hoped would happen. Yes, out loud.

ACTING/CAST : Shun didn't look like he had feelings, which is one thing I'm wondering whether it was done on purpose. But even till the end, I still didn't feel any emotions of love or even like. Maybe there were moments but I can't think of any. Nagisa's role was played excellently. It was as though he spoke more with his eyes rather than verbally or physically. So hats off to Kura Yuki for playing his role so well.

MUSIC : Honestly the music fit perfectly. It gave off anime feels too. Almost like 'Love is War' so I had fun jamming to it at the end of each episode. It wasn't played too much either. Only at the end of the episodes, but I still think the song did well in relaying the relationship through the music.

REWATCH VALUE : Because there aren't many episodes and they're actually quite short, I managed to complete the drama in one sitting. This made it feel more like a movie. I also think I'm going to miss the characters, probably Nagisa's character the most.
