Blue Spring Ride 2014

I wish I could say I enjoyed this series more, but sadly I ended up underwhelmed. Perhaps I was expecting too much from it. With Production I.G. doing another Shoujo and a very similar art style to Kimi ni Todoke, I was hoping for something close to that, but this fell far short.

Most of the cast were okay but I thought it was very clunky and somewhat unconvincing how their friendships were established. Very little was done to flesh some of them out either, although I suppose that can be difficult with only 12 episodes.

My main problem was with the main couple though. Whilst I didn't mind Futaba after she eventually grew a spine and started realising that she didn't have to live a "fake" lifestyle, for the vast majority of the series I absolutely couldn't stand Kou. I understand that the intention was to show that he had changed in the years they had been apart and had become a distant and aloof person, but they went way too far in my few and a lot of the time he was just being a total asshole, at times being outright abuse to Futaba. Of course later on it's revealed as to why he ended up this way but I still don't think it justified even half of his dickish behaviour. He got better towards the end but for a lot of the series he was just a total prick and it made it very hard for me to enjoy the series.

Quite a let down overall.

A very heartwarming anime with a great plot. The main series has a proper ending but the 2nd OVA seems to be incomplete.
Being a Shoujo anime it's a bit over dramatic but the story will cover up for that part. It's Animation reminded me of 'Kimi ni Todoke'. I'll Definitely recommend it to watch.

I liked it and found it cute, but I wish it ended with them getting together or at least a confession

A very beautiful slice-of-life anime with some romance mixed into it. I'm sad that there is not a second season for this anime, but I enjoyed what I could watch from it.
