Review of Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day

Dealing with the death of a friend or loved one isn't easy, no matter how old you are, and everyone comes to terms with their loss in different ways.I personally like topics like this. The story itself is pretty usual, nothing really special about the plot but I really like the way they present it. It's really unique the story is really natural and represent the meaning of life is, there's no forced conflicts and that what I like in here. The story is flows, but it grows in you. And watching this makes you feel that you have become the "actor" in the story thanthe viewer, and it just makes you feeling like back to your childhood life.

Characters, part that I really like in here. When everyone is developed and well.. changed. Each member of the "Super peach buster" had their own difficulties while coping with the death of Menma's death which generally caused conflict between the main characters. What made this anime truly amazing was the relationship between the characters, it had everything, jealously? check, romance? check, fights? check. But what made it great was despite the disputes, they always end up making up with each other, even if they witness something as weird as someone cross dressing as Menma.... that was truly a "What the fuck" moment.

Ano Hana is of course, not an ordinary anime. It's a true masterpiece. It's not easy to find a slice of life anime that has a beautiful drama in it. It gives you hearwarming feels, but gives you sad story as well

Overall: Ano Hana will do 3 things to you, it'll made you laugh, cry and very pissed off. Examples of where your going to be pissed off? When the characters ignorance or naivety reaches to the point that made you think that they were retarded for acting that way. I'm not even going to bother and say when your going to cry that list is way to long.
