Review of We Were There

Well it's your typical shoujo--popular boy and plain girl falls in love. But what separates Bokura Ga Ita from the rest is that the situations are very realistic that you might think that the author is narrating from experience.Main protagonists are well-crafted, especially Yano, who is exactly what a naughty, hormone-driven highschooler should be, though some characters (especially the friends of Nanami) are pitiful, because well, their only role was to sympathize with Nanami, but other than that, they just blend in with the background. The story is beautiful; anyone who has their fair share of happiness and betrayal in a relationship can relate.The art issimple, I can say it was somehow low-budgeted the way the backgrounds are washed out. The anime just covered the first 30 chapters of the manga (40 chapters were left). And obviously the story did not end on the last episode and you have to read the rest of the manga, or watch the live-action version.

All in all it was a good watch and I do recommend it to everyone.
