A couple days late because of school stuff, sorry. Well, I think it's pretty obvious what the bread and butter is: misunderstandings. I don't really like how the device is used most of the time, because it really doesn't lead us anywhere. Here, I didn't mind it as much because of what we got at the end. Romantic comedies in general are extremely character driven, and I think it's something that

Winter 2012 is starting to look really good the past week, and one of the shows (for me anyway) that contributed to that is this show here. To sum it up – Developments! Developments everywhere! Well, I might be exaggerating a bit, but they really laid this episode out very well. It starts out a bit after where the last episode trailed off, with Kaito remembering the events of last night, specifically, his “headache” scene and Ichika’s healing kiss that follows afterwards. I guess it’s safe to say that Kaito was on the verge of confessing in that scene, if Ichika hadn’t shushed him. Which leads to the rest of the episode’s events. Kaito believes that Ichika rejected him by not allowing him to talk. The results being a few funny fantasies by him. On the other hand, Ichika thought that Kaito was about to say something along the lines of “She’s an alien! Help, Men In Black!” And yes, they really said Men in Black (lol) It makes it a little bit awkward for both of them which led to Kaito having to ditch school just to avoid talking to Ichika. Of course, Ichika didn’t know the reason for [...]

“1 … 2 … um … 4 …” “Where did everyone go.” :3 Ano Natsu keeps pulling me back in, even if Kaito isn’t exactly the best lead in my eyes. I’m looking forward to whatever twists the show might have for us this week! fufufufu. The episode picks up from the “kiss scene” Ichika [...]

Admittedly, Ano Natsu de Matteru is coming along a lot better than I had initially thought it would be – especially when I kept viewing it as an Onegai Teacher rip off. In one sense it is but there are quite a few twists that make Ano Natsu stand apart from its big hit predecessor. [...]

The effects of the alcohol consumed by all and sundry last episode might have worn off, but the foggy memories of the previous day haven't quite worn off by the next morning. While Kanna soon finds herself faced by some minor embarrassment from that afternoon courtesy of Remon, this is as of nothing compared to the worries of Kaito and Ichika, with the former imagining a horribly bungled
