Comments on: White Album - 02 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2009/01/12/white-album-02/ An anime blog covering a large variety of series, both popular and underrated.

The pacing seems slow but I might be able to adjust if the story is done well. I think this might turn out to be more of a love triangle than a harem actually.

Well True Tears was exceptionally well written and executed. Hopefully this series will follow that example. psgels: Appreciate the response.

I'm suspecting that it's something similar to True Tears, but I can't say this with 100% certainty. Irie: I know that this is based on a visual novel, though I’m not sure what kind of it.

Pacing was much improved and we know how each of the girls feel for the main lead. I'm still not completely sold on this until we see how the relationships are handled. If this guy just sleeps with everyone, I'm gone. I think school days really set the standard for a badly handled harem series. At least for me. Anyone know what source is used for this anime.

And what was that parting statement to Yuki as she left just before she started hitting on the boyfriend? 'Are you sure?' It's almost as if Yuki asked her to hit on him. All in all this reminds me very much if I"s. I had major, major problems with that manga, and didn't bother with the anime. This looks to be a much better balanced version of I"s, but only time will tell. “I’m especially intrigued by Rina: something tells me that there’s much more to her than what we just saw of her: here she accompanies Yuki to see her boyfriend, and then she starts hitting on the guy behind her back.”
