Review of Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day

Before I start the review, please forgive me if this is not the greatest review. I'm still new to doing this, so please forgive me. Now on with the review: Before you watch this anime, you should ask your self one question: Do I have a box of Tissues on standby? If your answer was yes, then your good, because you're going to cry. Story: (hopefully not spoiling the story) AnoHana centers on a group of 6 friends with slowly drift apart after one of them accidentally drowns. Now, that the remaining five are older, the ghost of the one that drowned is trying to bringthem back together.

I felt that the story was interesting, in that the characters face situations pretty analogous to reality. So when they feel pain, happiness, or sadness, we can feel the same pain, happiness, or sadness.

Art: The Art for AnoHana was different than what I was expecting. I thought that it would have an art style similar to just your everyday slice of life anime. However, I was suprised, because the art is downright beautiful. The scenery was amazing and I like every thing about it.

Sound:Music in anime adds an emotional aspect to certain moments. The Music in AnoHana makes you want to ball you eyes out. It really drives home the emotional aspect of this anime.

Rating: 9

Characters: The Characters are unlike your typical anime characters. They seem more like real life people. I think that that is because these characters face situations more analogous to reality. Therefore, they become more human, and more relatable.

Rating: 10

Overall: I really liked this anime. Although it is only 11 episodes long, so much is accomplished. The show created such interesting characters, situations, and a story that is very heartfelt. Couple this with amazing scenery and sound, and you have an amazing anime for all to enjoy.
