Note: The series name may be listed as Aizu Pure or I''s Pure elsewhere. This was a short but wonderful series that was absolutely fearless in its exploration of honest feelings. This story is about teenage romance and the courage (or lack thereof) to declare one's feelings. I identified with the premise strongly, recalling my school age years when the girl I had a crush on was very popular and totally out of my league. The story evokes authentic empathy and feelings; although the plot, in places is like torture, when our main character just cannot say the words he needs to say and instead letsone perfect moment after another lapse without declaring his feelings. Still the story is so touching you will be depressed when its over!
