Review of Tsukigakirei

It may seem very simple on the surface, but the anime achieved being able to create a realistic world for Akane and Kotarou. The relationships have a realism to them which heightens the individual characters. It may seem like a basic CGI show, but it's very subtle in each action. Each action has deep meaning and portraited visually and with a beautiful soundtrack. Also, the relationship between the two was cute and the shyness of the main characters made it more realistic too. I recommend it to anyone who wants a laid back show where you just enjoy the ride instead of being at theedge of your seat. The show has a peaceful tone and theme to it. It is a relaxed, laid back show. The characters are defined well, which almost makes them similar to real people, instead of the over the top anime personalities you see in other animes. No one character is over the top but instead, each character is simple, with complex personal thoughts and ideas. The show also excels in showing you the two side of a relationship without much dialogue. Through subtle actions such as looking upset because of a text message, to the uncomfortable feeling of not being able to say what a person wants to in a relationship. Each expression shows how a character feels in the show without them yelling at anger. Instead, it uses gestures and reactions to portray the character's reaction, for example when Kotarou got mad at the festival.
In general, it's a very nice heartwarming show without any major plot driving it.
