Kimi ni Todoke-May or may not have spoilers~

Aaa~ An anime that came out in the last season called Kimi ni Todoke (I Want to Reach You) is about one of the most adorable simplest lovestory shoujo anime ever.

Everything in it to me is near perfect. The cast, the simplistic animation, the character execution, the light-hearted but full of emotion OP and ED and the simplistic storyline where a boy and girl fall in love.

I just find this kind of story so easy to relate to as well as believe that such a story could happen in high school. Of course this anime isn't for the cynical and the love-story haters. But those who like a light-hearted anime as Kuranuma Sawako tries to become better at interacting with people despite her scary appearance with the help of Kazehaya and the other characters.

I swear this is one of the few anime where every single character is undeniably likeable its insane <3~ The cast is also relatively small so it's easy to remember which character connects to where.

But of course the thing that makes me go MOE~ is Kazehaya's obvious shyness as he tries to hide it ... nothing better than a shy boy who's in love and tries to hide it ... well not better than black glasses character but 8D thats a different matter of MOE <3~

Who else has watched/read it? I can't help but fangirl everytime I watch it~

It's awesome. It's got a really good plot, high production values, a very good, relaxing atmosphere and great acting and interaction. I mean, shoujo usually has cliched plots, but this one sets itself out from the rest.

Ryu is so um... awesome lol.

^w^; I haven't watched the anime yet but I had started reading it since it was on the top manga lists.

I like the simplicity of it<3 . . it's real . . nice. Idk, haha.

Kazehaya is incredibly cute in his liking of Sawako. The art is pretty too.

I started reading that a while ago... it was beautifully refreshing.

I liked how it never seemed like it was trying too hard to cram action in, and just went along at its own pace...

And it had a cast I didn't want to nitpick about.

It's still airing currently, isn't it?
At like, episode 15 or so or something?

I haven't been following it, but I've heard good things about it.

Shoujo is good :3 and moe is also good, in smaller doses.

I'm downloading the series now,

so I'm going to see for myself what this is about.

Oh, and I do like the look of the cast, though. Since I'm one of the people who thinks of Noto's voice in the cute uncritical way.

Sorry, I just came across the official translation... *points down*
Edit: Viz, you are wrong. It does not translate to 'From Me to You.' At least put in 'reaching you' somewhere in there, 'todoke' is exactly. that. It's a verb in imperative form, there aren't even any verbs in your translated title ;x; . It's all good to have 'Kimi ni Todoke' ir romanji, but whut. Urrrgh, this is like when 'Karin' became 'Chibi Vampire'.
