Review of Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day

I will refer to this anime as Anohana because the other names is too long. This is one of those animes that hit me at the exact moment. i just graduated from school and went to a foreign country to study college. i missed my childhood friends and this is just what the anime talks about. Its really sad when you lost your bonds with those who you loved soo much. in tha case of this anime this was caused by the dead of one of the group. so this anime is great if you can understand the characters which is fairly easy. can you imagine loosing yourbest friend? yeah, it must really hurt. each one of the group went through their own way to run from this fact. 10 years latter the dead friends appears again. why? that's what the anime is about so find it out ;) but this phenomena brings the group back again what have changed after 10 years? things are not like it used to be. they are not childs playing anymore....

The STORY is really good and caught me off guard as i told you before. however i do feel there are some plot holes or just things without sense but you they are very few.

ART is great i don't have a single complain. characters are not beautiful but well thats the world right?

SOUND is AMAZING the ending specifically is one of those songs that makes you buy the whole ost.

CHARACTERS have a great development although i think they didn't behave that "naturally" anyways you can pretty much identify yourself with some of their characteristics.

I really ENJOYed the series. the story is cute and has a lot of feeling in it i can recommend it for anyone who likes this kind of story (shoujo-ish)

OVERALL outstanding anime from spring 2011!
