A sweet, calm and pleasant anime, which is better to watch on a rainy day, wrapped in a warm blanket with a cup of hot chocolate in your hands. The first episodes nearly putted me into a sleep but gradually I became imbued with the life on the other side of the monitor.
This anime is clichéd and original at the same time. The plot is trivial and typical for your average dime novel, but on the other hand there are almost no anime cliches. I’ve watched the entire series with ease and easily believed what I saw on the screen and even empathized with the characters (although, of course, I knew from the beginning how everything would end). This anime is very calm and slow-paced, with a lot of slice-of-life and less drama. There are no excessive emotions and other annoying things that are typical for animes, which is awesome and refreshing.
I also have read the manga, and I can say that this series are pretty faithful to the source.
