Short Summary: Makoto Itou is in love with the girl who rides on the same train as him. He never spoke to her so far, only took secretly a photo with his cell phone. At school that girl - Katsura - is in another class and Makoto finds himself next to another cute girl: Sekai Saionji! She gets to know he's in love with Katsura and decides to help him, only few days later the three of them have lunch together and have a lot of fun. Makoto decides to be a man and confesses to Katsura who accepts and seems very happy. Both, Katsura and Makoto, are deeply grateful and Makoto tells Sekai he will return her favour. But Sekai already knows what the return should look like, when Itou is unprepared she steals a kiss from his lips, enters the next train and wishes him good luck for his date with Katsura. My opinion: "School Days" made a big impression on me. I like character design, animation, background music. The story comes straight to the point, Makoto and Katsura find directly together. Still, with Sekais kiss a triangle relationship foreshadows. I especially liked the presentation of Makoto's relations with the people around him embodied by the school entrance scene. First only Makoto and Katsura are in colour, later on you can see there are much more people involved, and it's only Itou's focus which makes him see only Katsura.
