Summary:
A shy and unconfident teenager, Itou Makoto, has resigned to stealing glances at a cute girl as they ride the same train each morning on their way to their high school. At least until Saionji Sekai surprises Makoto and chances a peek at a photo-snap of the beautiful Katsura on his cell-phone. After evilly teasing Makoto about his hopeless crush, Sekai offers to support him in his romance. So after many Makoto-pep-talks and lots of scheming, the three become close friends. Close enough that Makoto braves asking Katsura out on a date. And she agrees. Later that day, Makoto finds a quiet moment to express his thanks for all support that Sekai has offered him, and makes clear his intent on finding a way to repay her kindness. But he is totally unprepared and very surprised at the reward that Sekai has chosen. Sekai steals a long kiss from his lips, before breaking away to run for the train. Sekai turns and wishes Makoto well on his date.

So now that I've seen it all I can't love it anymore... I can't hate it either. This show was amazing in its ability to keep me glued to it, I never had it all quite figured out til the last two episodes. The show keeps u sucked in with its twists and turns and just how badly u want to scream at these people. However I half hate it too, cause in the end He just puts every blessing given in the shitter. I was so crushed by the ending of this show. Episode 5 was so incredible, the suspense and the romance was amazing. So it kinda hurt to see the end be such an absolute opposite of what it started as. If there is one thing that cannot be denied its the slice of life catagory here. The reality in this anime is harshly accurate. Its full of the kind of shit cartoons usually pretend doesn't happen. Beautifully yet Soulcrushingly well done.
