Review of We Were There

I probably just expected too much from this anime or was merely looking for something enjoyable to watch over the spring break; either way, I was disappointed. It was a total waste of time. First of all, the story was hardly exceptional and very predictable. Also, the way Takahashi speaks was intolerable. But that's just me. Adding to that, the art was quite aggravating, especially when the characters are on sideway view. I'd say it was the worst disturbance in terms of artwork that had been bothering me since Barefoot Gen. Worst part was that I was anticipating that something pretty much spectacular would come around aroundthe bend that I opted to just grin and bear, and in the end it dissatisfied me.
Setting those points aside, the overall impression I was left with is that it was completely, simply put, downright soporific.
