At least tell us something about the show, other than it is a romance.

Hope this helps, dear.

I loved this anime and only wish it could've covered the entirety of the manga, but for what it was it did a lovely job.

I see. They don't know what it's about either. Smile

My thoughts exactly. Pretty terrible ad.

Or at least point out that Akitaro Daichi was the director of Kodocha and Fruits Basket--
Describing him as "The director of Elf Princess Rane and DD Fist of the North Star" doesn't quite put us in the shoujo-romance mood Shocked , or at least makes us think he's got another weird/downbeat "artistic" bug up his hinder like he did with NTHT.

Laughing Well, at least if people don't know what it's about due to a pretty bland ad (someone paid for this to be put up?), they can see the forum post and follow the link to know what the series is all about.

But, I know what I'll be doing now...buying the manga from Viz!

Oh another "Say, I Love You". It seems the artists' budget was a little thin for this one though. Like "story boards look good enough, we'll use those instead." Laughing

I dunno, did you follow that link? I couldn't tell much more what it was about from that either. Both descriptions are pretty pathetic, especially coming from professionals who are trying to market this.

If you really want to know what the series is about, try the ANN entry, which was probably written by an ordinary fan.

I already know what this series was about, as I've been planning on getting it for myself for awhile now. Just haven't gotten around to it yet.

So, I could fill the gaps for myself. Laughing

Can it be another Say I Love You if it came out beforehand? Laughing

Aww, now I miss Bokura ga ita. I remember being so addicted to this. The manga was gold.

It's an oooold show. Very obvious with its production.
