Review of Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day

I can't really begin to explain how amazing this anime is. There are lots of other animes that I've deemed "amazing", "beautiful", "great, but this one takes it to another level. In my book, it's on par with Clannad: After Story, which is one of the most beautiful animes I've ever seen as well. Story: 10 One of the most amazing, beautiful stories I've ever seen. Full of what people would call "feels, present from the very first episode to the last. It had it's happy moments, and it's REALLY sad moment, but what really made it special and so amazing was the deep friendship/love of allthe characters and how they feel to have lost someone so special to them. I can't really explain how it portrays those feelings without telling scenes from the anime, so I'll just leave it at that. It's simply beautiful.

Art: 9

Colourful, well-designed characters and scenery. In my opinion, the characters were kawaii!!!! :3 That aside, I really enjoyed watching the anime, and by "enjoyed watching" I mean that the "art" was pleasant to the eyes.

Sound: 9

I don't really know where to start with this. The voice actors portrayed the feelings of each character OUTSTANDINGLY. This is why I love watching animes subbed and not dubbed. Throughout the whole thing, at every moment, I could feel the emotions in their voices and each voice suited the characters perfectly.
The music... wow. Fitting perfectly with the theme, the moments at which certain songs are played and making the emotions at that moment all the more powerful. I just have to say that I loved it.

Character: 10

A variety of different personalities, situations, emotions from each of the characters. Each of them had their own background story, their own opinion on things, their own way of seeing things. All of them relatable and unforgettable. I will never be able to forget the story between Menma and each of the other characters. I'll be honest, at one time it did leave me with questions as to what the hell was wrong with one of the characters. Yukiatsu. The way in which he showed his emotions was quite... unique and special. I guess I just wasn't expecting that, so I believe that it just proves how unique and special ALL of the characters are, each in their own way.

Enjoyment: 10

I cried, ok? It got to me. That's something very rare, but this anime is just that emotional and beautiful. It's one of the animes that I will never forget, no matter how many years pass.

Overall: 10

As I said before, I won't be forgetting this anime ever. I recommend it to anyone that takes a liking on emotional animes, and even if you don't I would still recommend you watch it no matter what. It won't be boring, I can assure you that, and it might turn out that you really love it.

If you find this review nonsense, then sorry. It's the first real review I've ever written! Thanks for reading, anyways! :)
