I usually don't write reviews for anime even the ones that i like. But i have to write for this one. Hiatari Ryoukou is one of Mitsuru Adachi's earlier works. I really like this anime very much. It is definitely one of the best romance anime from the 80s alongside Touch and Maison Ikkoku. It is similar to both Maison ikkoku and touch in terms of setting. Story- The story is about Kasumi who have to transfer to another school and another area. She believed to be living alone with her aunt. But unfortunately the place she was suppose to live is apartment with fourboys. She started to slowly fall in love with one of the boys Takesugi Yusaku. The relationship between them is the central of the story

Characters- Kasumi and Yusaku are the main characters. Alongside them, the other characters are really great. And Katsuhiko (who is Kasumi's boyfriend) turns out to be a really guy who knows Yusaku's unrequited feelings toward Kasumi and also Kasumi's feelings toward Yusaku (No spoilers).

Artstyle- the Artstyle is same as Touch. And there are so many characters who looks exactly like their Touch counterpart. But overall the artstyle is my cup of tea.

Soundtrack- now this is something that i really love about this show. The 1st op and ed are cheesy bcuz of the tone of the show for the season. However during 2nd and 3rd season the shiw become touching and the ops and eds are memorable as well. The music is really good.

Enjoyment- I really love this show. After 1st season it becomes touching and depressing. However if it weren’t for the rushed ending (no spoilers). I would give this 10/10. But anyway it is really my favourite.

Overall- At the last I've to say this is really good anime. It is underrated. It deserves more audience.

Rating- 9/10
