Ok, a little confused here but i'll try to summarize everything without spoilers into one review. WARNING: This is my subjective opinion, I am NOT a professional reviewer and I doubt that I'll ever be one. This is my experience with the show, and while yes I know, pirating is a VERY BAD and a dickhead thing to do. But i'm certain that the site I watched the show on also mixed in the "Sequel" into the main show. However I'm not going to spoil anything so it doesn't really matter, i'm expressing the general emotions that I got from the show. And the fact that I watchedthe "sequel" and the main show in one go doesn't change my experience with the anime that much.

Now for the actual review:

This anime was very cool.
That is the best description of this anime I could find without being too pretentious.
The best thing about this show, was that it actually felt like you were watching a show about some students and their struggles.
It wasn't an anime about some hyper-active idiots punching each other because of the most smallest mistakes that one of them makes. It wasn't an anime where everyone is carrying guns around a highschool and no-one gives a fuck.
While it did feel at times that the emotions were turned down a bit too much, it mostly managed to deliver an anime about people. Not gorillas.
Seriously, if you removed all of the fantasy then the anime could be passed as a genuine Slice of Life romance anime.
What I mean by that is that it could be passed as an actual show about some teenagers and their everyday troubles.
God damnit, no matter how much I talk about it, I can't explain it logically.
It sounds stupid I know.
"Whaddya mean a genuine Slice of Life anime, it's already an SoL anime!"
Yeah I know, but that's not what i'm talking about.
Basically, I have told this so many times in multiple reviews, but this anime felt real.
But it felt as if you were actually watching a group of highschool friends. And it was cool. The emotions felt real, genuine. Not over the top and not heartless. You know, like a c t u a l friend groups feel.
It touched on multiple kinds of problems and that is admirable too.
But nothing too far.
Thank you for your time!

Notes about me and my reviews:
[READ FURTHER FOR NOTES ABOUT THE REVIEW ITSELF AND SOME OTHER] [STUFF.]
If someone actually reads this, then i'm sorry if this review feels too dry too.
I somehow got lucky and got emotions that I could express easily and logically on my first reviews.
But that was just luck.
Basically-
I'm not good at writing reviews, and if you for some reason check one of my first reviews then you could probably see that I had alot more emotions and enthusiasm back then.
That is a pure coincidence that my first reviews were more logically sound. It just so happened that I decided to start writing reviews just as I finished watching some really good and emotional anime, so I wanted to sploodge the emotions I experienced onto the Internet. The thing is, me making reviews that are "good" in my opinion, is only because of certain circumstances. If a review I make looks too dry, is because it is. Either I didn't get influenced by the anime that much or my emotions are scrambled.
I am far from experienced in making reviews, so even if I get any traction with the anime community by some miracle, I would probably be brought down to earth and further to hell faster than I could blink.

Notes about the review and some other statements:

1.
Yes, pirating is very bad and i'm a dickhead for doing it and I have no right to object to anyone telling me that i'm a piece of shit.

2.
I repeat-
This is MY SUBJECTIVE opinion.

3.
I am not a professional reviewer by any means, and when I write my reviews I probably forget alot of stuff that I wanted to write down. And even when I remember what I wanted to write on my review, i'm mostly too lazy to go back and edit the review.

4.
This anime has a lot of strong points, and 3 out of the 5 categories are positive 9's in my opinion. But the thing is, the anime does very good in the categories which MAL provides you the ability of rating. But it has some other problems which cannot be rated by a single MAL point rating system. It requires different categories and stuff like that. So that is why i'm giving it an 8/10 overall even though most of the rating categories given are on 9 points.

5.
Yes, if MAL is displaying the episodes correctly, then the website I watched the anime from DID indeed mash the "Sequel" together with the main show. Sorry, I don't intend on sounding like an asshole but i'm not bothered enough to write a review on the "sequel". Because of the website mashing those two together, I am writing this review as an experience of both. However note that you could apply this review to both the main show and the extras as they seem similar enough to me.

End of review.
Thank you for your time.
