I cried, such a great ending
Kuze x Mizuki doesn't convince me as a ship though

Fantastic ending to a series I wasn't too sure about at the start.
The messages and the lessons it delivered in the series were so well done.
The drama was never dull and kept me interested at all times which is hard to accomplish imo.

The directing was so damn good, especially episodes like Episode 7 of "Memories" and Episode 6 of "Melodies".

Definitely one of my favourite romantic drama anime I've seen.
Easy 9/10 for both seasons.

I'm really glad that Himura got the closure he needed after all those years. A bittersweet and very worthwhile story.

Random sidenote, it's kinda funny how Chihiro's Santa outfit that'd normally be impractical for a regular chilly Christmas might actually be too hot for Australia lol

ef felt like a work of art, a messy one full of melodrama but with an engaging story. It's a bit of a shame this anime has been overlooked by many people, it's genuinely good.

Also, this anime is the PERFECT example of what happens when you don't go to therapy. Literally everyone there needed some treatment for their PTSD and thus 90% of the conflict of the anime would have been saved.

And now the OP is in full color. Everyone's able to break from their chains and move forward, and Yuuko has her wings.

ef is a great anime, but not one I could bear watching twice. It's hard to stomach with how heavy it is, but damn if it wasn't an amazing experience.

Just finished rewatching this. Yuuko and Yuu's reunion and last moments together brought me to tears just like it did the first time round.
