http://psgels.blogsome.com/2008/01/12/true-tears-02/ An anime blog covering a large variety of series, both popular and underrated. Tue, 10 Nov 2009 02:10:52 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5.1-alpha http://psgels.blogsome.com/2008/01/12/true-tears-02/#comment-5789 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 05:14:29 +0000 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2008/01/12/true-tears-02/#comment-5789 I was surprised at how much I liked this. It does feel like the characters can be found in other anime but something about it all seems to work. The highlight for me (only scene first episode so far) were the family scenes, it's really refreshing for the mother not to be this cheery compassionate woman who's friends with her son, and the father not to be someone who's referred to but has no place in his family. Also the main character doesn't seem completely naive, he's a bit unlikeable as well which I think adds to the authenticity. This could turn into a moe/emo fest and I'll eat my words but it shows more promise for something different than most school based shows. I was surprised at how much I liked this.

Characters seem too serious and over dramatic. It takes the fun out of young romance. I never liked love triangles. Characters seem too
