    Shizuku, what the hell?

    Now you him, now you don't. Rinse and repeat.

    Yeah, it's getting a little.. static, now.

    I liked how it turned from Haru <3 Shizuku to Shizuku <3 Haru, but to have to redo all of that sounds like a bit of a drag. I also want to see the romance develop between the side characters too, so retracing Haru/Shizuku's progress only eats into their screen-time. She even got over her whole "study is my life" thing in episode 2 anyway.. :S

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    It's official, Shizuku annoys the shit out of me.
    "You are not free whose liberty is won by the rigour of other, more righteous souls. Your are merely protected. Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood."

    HS - Episode 10, 11




    ----------------------------
















    Yamaken's absolutely right, these two are dumb - and that dumbness makes this show now only mildly interesting for the most part. However I'm still tied to this show due to the few moments each ep that hook me in just enough to sell the next ep.. :S

    Hurry the fuck up and do something already...

    What has kept me watching is that all the characters are somehow strange, in one way or more. And real triangles haven't formed. But it's true that something should already happen instead of the endless ping pong game between Shizuku and Haru.

    What's kept me watching is that it's all I watch on Monday, and as a whole the show is only mildly displeasing. But yeah, the main couple comprises of two idiots, with the female half accounting for, by far, the majority of stupidity. I sit here wishing Yamaken would actually end up with Shizuku....just cuz.

    I guess Mi-chan didn't see that coming after his mighty speech from his adult's high seat.

    Yeah...I did feel kind of bad for her, not that I saw this turning out any other way.

    Natsume and her "moe vomiting-pose" is the reason why I started to watch this and she is the reason why I still watch this

    actually, I'm more interested in her and how she'll look in the next scene - so many different clothes and hairstyles - yay, they really *did* put some effort into her looks and its absolutely believable that she is a boy-magnet just because of that.

    Shiki <> Haru got boring after they went back to 0 for the second time
    it was okay till Ep. 08 but after that, they didn't advance at all for the next 4 episodes, and now I can't say I really care anymore

    Go Natsume! Go
    in fact, I believe Sasahara <> Natsume would be alot more fun to watch than the current main cast

    Well, I don't get that ending. Nothing at all was resolved, though its not surprising given how the show developed. But to spend the last episode on Haru chasing a firefly...*facepalm*

    Yeah, in the end the anime just seemed to waffle for 10 episodes..

    Pretty disappointing really.

    I liked the characters and many scenes were funny, but as a story this was quite disappointing, and indeed this last episode was insignificant and largely wasted.

    Sasayan and Natsume (Oshima to an extent) were largely the reasons I kept watching after around the 1/3rd mark. I got really tired of Haru's unchanging "stupidly violent" behaviour after he repeatedly hits Shizuku by mistake. The fact that he doesn't even try to restrain that part of himself when he knows it hurts people he loves simply says he doesn't learn - and we're not going to get anywhere.

    Then there's the Shizuku side of things that we all know about.

    The manga goes on with the story and addresses a number of issues that you'd expect to be addressed given more time. The annoying stuff that aren't a result of a lack of time though remain, i.e. Shizuku and Haru being dumb asses.
