Kimi ni Todoke Anime

This is a story of Sawako, often called "Sadako" by her classmates a horror character in The Ring. She has a creepy appearance but actually sweet and timid type of girl. Sawako's appearance made an impression to her classmates as someone that can see ghosts and can make a curse, that made her classmates afraid of her. She longs to make friends, and everything changes when Kazehaya Shota started talking to her. Shota's encouraging words and smile made her do her best in developing her personality. Ayane and Chi become the first two people who talks to her and eventually become friends with her. She was able to make friends, enemies and experienced fun at the first time. As the story progresses, a sweet love is blooming between Shota and Sawako.

Kimi Ni Todoke is based on a shoujo manga made by Karuho Shiina. It won as the Best Shoujo Manga in 2008. Watching Kimi Ni Todoke is really enjoyable, i mean whenever Sawako appears creepy and pops up in the middle of nowhere scaring people around make the scenes really funny. I also like the way it shows the building of relationships such as making new friends and having special feelings to someone. Ayane and Chi has shown their side of being such good friends to Sawako. Ryu is good with people and relationship. He knows how to deal with things despite of being silent all the time. I like Shota for being true, and equally cares for everyone.

Despite of the slow progress of Shota-Sawako love, the series is still worth watching. I love the art coloring and lighting of drawings. They brighten the appearance of characters. I like their OP theme, it reminds me of Honey and Clover's "Waltz".

All in all, i liked this anime.

Thanks to those individuals/groups who subbed this anime.
