It was the best romance anime I have seen in a long time. Very modern, very grounded in the real world. And what a satisfying ending.

Who would have thought a love story about cell phones could be this good.

>>159311095
>who would have thought an anime advertisement for LINE™ could be this good

It was a very nice and simple story. Refreshing, to be honest. And it had a happy ending.

Felt good, man.

Even with all of the LINE advertising, this was the best show last season and one I'll be rewatching. Too bad there isn't anything similar this season.

>>159310066
"Mochizou, daisuki! Dozo." is better.
Toradora's kiss is better.
Dominic and Anemone's reunion is better.

>>159311593
No
Maybe
I really wish I could have seen this but I just didn't like any of the characters. The relationship between those two seemed interesting but they weren't onscreen long enough to keep me watching. Everyone else were awful people I were supposed to empathize with.

I thought for sure the ending was leading up to them breaking up and then the epilogue showing him fondly reminiscing about his first love as a successful author while married to that tomboy whore. Glad that didn't happen.

>>159311936
>Everyone else were awful people I were supposed to empathize with.
Really? I thought they did a dam good job of making flawed characters I still liked. Even Holland, who gets the most hate for being a shitty person, worked through that, and you were never supposed to like his shittiness.

>when some retard unironically brings up toradora or kimi na wa when youre having a conversation about the masterpiece that tsuki ga kireis writing and direction
If you want to list contenders then at least bother to be reasonable and name white album 2, touch, maison ikkoku or nodame. Granted, all of those are worse as wel but at least they are close.

>>159313411
Toradora is actually the exact reason Tsuki Ga Kirei is such a breath of fresh air. Toradora is full of those stupid ass misunderstandings and drawn out retarded drama that Tsuki Ga threw off in favor of actually exploring a fucking romance.

The romance in Kimi na is not the main focus and I have no idea why it's brought up. Shinkai wrote a couple without a bad ending so I guess people are overhyping it or something.

The ending montage was so cheesy, it would have been better off if they just showed them reconnecting as they're in high school and letting you imagine the rest.

>>159315285
>letting you imagine the rest.
Fuck off, those are to most shitty, inconclusive endings ever.

Garbage animation.
Cliche trying to not be cliche.
Happy ending after timeskip.
Rushed romance (anime starts and ends in their final junior high year)
Forced drama, see above.

It's babby's first take on animu romance.

>>159315399
>every romance has to show the couple married or it's inconclusive

A photo of them married carries little weight with such a montage, it's just a reminder that all of this took place in their final year of middle school. Am I supposed to believe they stayed the same throughout their adult years and most of their development was in middle school?

>>159315485
Nice attempt, needs more buzzwords though.

>>159313411
>when some retard unironically brings up toradora when youre having a conversation about the masterpiece that tsuki ga kireis writing and direction
I brought up a specific scene from Toradora during a conversation about a specific scene from Tsuki ga Kirei. The overall quality of the shows is not relevant.

>no one has mentioned the real greatest romance anime of all time

The main couple has absolutely zero chemistry. It's just a tale of puppy love that turns into real love off screen in a montage at the end of the show.

>>159316814
The love is too pure. It's not raw or visceral like the love in WA2 or Kuzu no Honkai where you can feel the intensity of their lust. I never got the feeling the couple in Tsuki ga Kirei wanted to move beyond kissing. That's fine if a series is about leading up to two people getting together, but it's not as effective when the two get together early on.

>>159317067
I don't think lust is necessary, you can have enjoyable character interaction between a couple without it being about sex. Ore Monogatari is fine in this regard. Akane and Azumi have the personality of a plank of wood when they're with each other, they only show hints of character when they're alone or with their friends. The whole show takes place within the phase of a relationship where you can't even be yourself around the person, and it feels really unsatisfying for that.

>>159316438
Nope

This thing was on page 10, just let it die already. No one gives a shit about this flop.

You right. I went into eureka without any expectations and ended up hating every single character besides them and infertile couple.

If that's Ray and his wife (shit forgot her name) then yeah them. The moment they blew up and I realized we were going back to stuck up asshole hippies I was done.

>>159310066
Anime without hijinks is just a regular J-drama.

It's the most overrated romance after WA2. At least it wasn't bad but being inoffensive doesn't excuse the hype.

Kids on the Slope is an example of a good romance.

I mean if what you wanted was the most simple love story ever told with no real drama and meh animation you got it.
I guess it makes sense that because something like is not made often at all the fanbase will overrate it tremendously, since its so rare.
But rare doesnt mean good, I found it really boring.

Kids on the Slope was a pretty good musical show stusaddledk with a really lackluster romance.

>>159322923
Theres no point in even arguing with people like you since the subtle voice acting and the impeccable writing clearly went over your head. You'll claim that character development doesnt exist or that the characters are flat in general, when the only legitimate point of criticism are the visuals in form of the shoddy animation. We get it, you either didnt pay attention, couldnt be bothered to pay attention or pretend to have paid attention, theres no point in constantly repeating yourself in every single thread.

>>159311067
I totally agree, this was an extremely grounded anime, it could easily be adapted into a live drama.
The voice acting wasn't over the top, or trying too hard to sound like an anime character, and like OP stated there were never any instances where characters felt too out of place.
Even Roman for all his flamboyance had times where he was acting like a normal kid.

>>159311593
I loved Anemone and Domnic, but that's a completely different kind of show, you're comparing apples to oranges.

>>159323045
except true tears

>>159322923
>with no real drama
Yes it's exactly what I wanted, a standard anime romance has contrived plot bullshit like misunderstandings and coincidental events that prolong the drama.
That's fine if the show is trying to be extra flashy and melodramatic, but this one is a more down to earth story that focuses on the actual relationship instead of the stuff leading up to it.

Had this been like 90% of romance anime the episode where they start going out would've been the last one and they would've dragged out the chinatsu plotline.

I mean the fact that the show doesn't even vilify or portray the other competing love interests as bad people is enough to say for how maturely it was handled.
Another anime would've introduced characters like chinatsu and the running club chad in an antagonistic light and would've never given them the closure that they got here.
The fact that Akane forgave Chinatsu without any dramatic BS alone should speak volumes.

>>159310066
no

>>159323418
All that focus on the relationship, and they still have the most boring interactions in the entire show. To compare Tsuki ga Kirei to true anime romance masterpieces like WA2 and Clannad After Story with actually memorable couples is an insult.

>>159323418
The main girl being magnanimous is the common formula and is the easy way out because it doesn't compromise that character's likeability, change the nature of the established character interactions or introduce new conflict that has to be resolved. There's nothing wrong with it, but to consider something like that especially worthy of praise is baffling when it's not exactly this rare thing that make it sound like.

>>159323604
Dude, OP here and Fujiyama is in my top 10 manga ever. Noticed I said 'anime' in the OP though, so I'm going to dodge your post because I don't even want to compare the two.

>>159316438
>still no epilogue chapter
>still no OST release
FUCKING
WHEN

>>159323651
They're two introverted kids, of course their interactions are gonna be boring.
Even the MC has to develop enough balls to tell his own parents what school he wants to got to.
WA2 and Clannad were both fine, but even though I like them I like this show for its less flamboyant and theatrical take on the subject.
Having gushy cutesy relationship moments is fine and all, but not every couple is going to interact that way nor do they have to.

>>159323706
I totally get that its been done many times and honestly I usually find that kind of character trait boring, but I think I just like the way it was utilized in this series.
One reason this could be is that as mentioned before this series is very grounded.
Sure Akane is a calm and soft-spoken type of girl, but this isn't the only way she is depicted within the series.
We often see her lose her temper with her sister which I thought was an important detail because it gives her slightly more depth beyond her outward persona.

This goes for everyone. Characters in Tsuki ga Kirei aren't hyper active, although they have individual personalities they aren't written and treated as caricatures or archetypes, so they act with a certain level of realism while expressing their own traits.

Just picked this shit up. I've been so tired of anime for a while and having one without all the tropes and shit is incredibly refreshing.

Maybe they were objectively interesting characters, maybe some people even enjoyed their development.
But all i felt is rage. I didn't want little shits and assholes in my animes.

While Dominique and Anemone opposite, they were fictitious and almost idyllic characters, but their story and resolution was a single worthwhile thing in otherwise godawful shitfest.

I can't say I really understand this way of thinking; you can't stand characters who aren't all upstanding people, or what? You'd rather have had a heroic everyman MC and his stock-cool-mentor rather than people fucking up and being shits and having to persevere through that?

> While Dominique and Anemone opposite, they were fictitious and almost idyllic characters
They were heavily-flawed little shits too, did we watch the same show? For most of the series, Dominic was up his own ass and constantly screaming at everyone expecting them to go along with his personal love for Anemone, and assuming the worst about them. And Anemone, of course, was a selfish bipolar maniac who very neatly outlined all her own flaws for us in their resolution episode. Don't get me wrong, I loved them, but the way you describe them, and particularly single them out as "idyllic" and different from the other assholes, is not the way I saw it at all.

You're supposed to believe that they stayed in their relationship through high school and into adulthood. That no matter what trials they faced they worked through them and continued to build their relationship to the point where they got married.

You're not supposed to believe they just flatlined through high school to marriage. That isn't what the montage shows and that would be retarded.

>That no matter what trials they faced they worked through them and continued to build their relationship to the point where they got married.

But if you put all that stuff in a short montage, the result loses all impact. The marriage photo just made me roll my eyes. It makes all those supposed trials of the montage look insignificant in comparison to what they experienced in middle school when really they would be far more difficult.

>>159328060
The Valvrape was 11/10 comedy, though.
>consensual handholding during rape
>Shouko giving her speech

>>159328290
Because the story is about them meeting and the beginning of their relationship.
The montage shows you that they follow through all the way.

>>159328290
>But if you put all that stuff in a short montage, the result loses all impact

No it doesn't you retard. Read the fucking OP. This is a romance story about middleschoolers growing up and maturing. It pulls this off perfectly. The entire ending segment is just a nice little gift to the viewer.

>>159328416
>The entire ending segment is just a nice little gift to the viewer

To me, it looks like the creators were too insecure to believe they made a couple convincing enough to have the audience think they could stay together into adulthood, so they shoehorned a montage.

I don't think so, there are some couples I think would stick together. WA2 is brought up a lot, but I really do think, even from just watching the anime, you could believe Haruki would follow Kazusa into adulthood if she came back. WA2 was set in high school, but last year middle school in Japan would be freshman in high school in other countries.

>>159310066
I think it put most of us off precisely because it doesnt glorify romance the way other anime does

It doesnt put on airs and that disturbed some of us, from the very first episode it was in risky territory for me because of how close to home it hit.

Their flaws stem from plot and circumstances.
There is a difference being stuck up because PLOT and being asshole because you are an asshole.

>>159338272
AOTY is Maidragon though

It's nice to see an actual unambiguous happy ending for a change. And somehow it didn't come off as overly corny or sentimental.

Those little text message chats in the ending really got me.

But the line that started the tears flowing was when Curly is reading the comments on his story after he wrote "the end" and he sees Akane's reply - "what happens next?" That was just so beautiful.

>>159338389
It was very corny. The fact that middle schoolers actually end up together is enough to paint this shit as unrealistic garbage.

>>159310066

>>159338290
Any anime that puts romance as main genre is already glorifying it. The best romance is always in shows where it's in the background being treated very casualy and not the main focus of the plot.

Which one is the piano rendition of the song that plays during the ending credits of 12?

Tsuki ga maymay

>>159310066
Just finished it yesterday. It's definitely one of the greatest romance anime I've ever seen. The entire second half of the last episode was beautiful.

>>159340679
It's really nice. Reminds me a lot of the Isshuukan Friends soundtrack.

>>159322869
Kids on the Slope's anime script was done by Tsuki ga Kirei's author.

>>159344703
It's just the instrumental version of the ending theme

>>159310066
I couldn't relate to this anime at all, but it gave me a nice peek a what first love can be like.

>>159310066
I have no idea how I didn't drop this anime. I probably have one of the worst attention spans when it comes to anime but this fucking simple anime about an introverted boy who falls in love with an introverted girl is the one thing that kept my attention.
10/10 would have diabetus again.

>To fucking SCREAM. This introverted quiet young boy, who had spent the past 12 episodes slowly putting one foot forward in front of the other, mumbling his way through a relationship, standing in silence confused when the girl he loved cried, suddenly just shouts at the top of his lungs.

And when the background music stopped playing for a few seconds when he screamed. Best moment ever.

Highest amazon pre-order rank before e12 was 250ish, jumped into top 20 afterwards. Guess it should be doing fine, I pre-ordered the collectors edition myself for the first time ever. We wont have actual numbers until October since the BDs start being sold end of September

>>159350110
it was actually a commercial for trains all along

Couldn't he just hop the next train? I doubt she'd be impossible to find.

If you didn't tear up during the last episode then you are not a member of the same species as I am

>>159351687
>tearing up
Thats what I did in almost all the other episodes. E12 made me literally cry from happiness for 10 minutes straight. While I was watching the live stream I was fine for most of it, but then the "kiseki" part kicked in and I was done for. The ED gave me the rest, but the dialogue beforehand already pushed me over the edge. If all you did was tear up watching that then youre emotionally dead.

>>159310066
Fuck you now I'm crying too

>>159351898
To clarify I meant "at least." I was definitely crying after the "what happens next?" line.

but is it better than Your Lie In April?

>>159315485
There's barely any drama which is also much better written than most anime

>>159323418
This so much. I was ready to hate on Chinatsu so much on some episodes

>>159323418
To be fair, the "I got my phone confiscated and didn't meet up with her" part was getting close to MISUNDERSTANDINGS.

I loved the parent/child and family interactions in this anime. Tired of anime where the characters live in this hypothetical world without parents.

>>159352627
It wasn't only the romance that made me tear up but also the relationship between Koutarou and his mom. She really cared. All the people calling her a monster when she was simply being a nagging caring mother was sickening.

stop watching bad anime

Tsuki ga Kirei was an extremely pleasant wish-fulfillment Anime and will be a candidate for AOTY when it's all said and done. It gave me nothing but good feelings.

This story didn't have much conclusion except for the couple. What happened to his dream of being a writer? What else happened between with the other students?

>>159340679

Anime gets way too complex with it's stories sometimes that it's nice to see these really simple stories done well.

Isn't that literally the ending to Tamako Love Story though?

>>159358075
What happened to your dream of being the president or an astronaut, anon? Literally no one gives a shit about any of that. At most he made a light novel which got adapted into the tsuki ga kirei anime, she retired from running in highschool after getting her ass handed by the pros.

People move on, Chinatsu probably got into depression and got tired of waiting for Azumi and found someone else that appreciated more her outgoing personality. Hira wouldn't have a trouble doing the same.

Chinatsu was very lucky Akane moved to another school, there's nothing worse than watching someone you loved in a couple growing together every day. She moved on on her own.

Please go back to tumblr

>>159363531
Did you not read anything he wrote? The reason his outburst had weight is because Tsuki ga Kirei was such a soft-spoken series, bereft of the usually anime outbursts we see all the time.

>>159363531
It's exactly the opposite of what happens in Love Story, if you actually read the OP.

>>159356966
Yeah I can't believe Tsuki Ga Kirei didn't have an entire episode where Akane and Kotarou bitched at each other for 20 minutes.

>>159365052
But anon, having two characters dump exposition about themselves for 20 minutes is good writing!

I never implied that. You're the one who implied that something is better solely because it's realistic.

Tell me, do you think people watch romance shows to have an accurate portrayal or romance or to be moved? And yes, I know those aren't mutually exclusive but people consider unrealistic romance to be romance, they wouldn't consider an academic paper on love to be romance though.

>>159382907
>do you think people watch romance shows to have an accurate portrayal

uhh, yes? Not all people will fell from the good old melodramatic tactics just to stir up emotion in an exaggerated manner

>>159382907
Different anon here. I don't think you're entirely wrong, unrealistic or implausible stories can still be good, and elements of unrealism can even enhance stories. But stories that have grounding in realism can offer a unique experience, one that isn't strictly better or worse, but singular. In particular, watching Tsuki ga Kirei the realism helps you to get lost in the story and to relate to the feelings of the youngsters. It makes you nostalgic because very specific elements of the story remind you of being a kid simultaneously while watching this moving love story. So it just adds something to the quality.

Tsuki ga Kirei doesn't have mile-a-minute action sequences either, but it's no worse for it. You're generalizing too much. People can praise the story's realism without implying that realism is always strictly superior.

>>159383063
Anime is entertainment. If an accurate portrayal is not entertaining they will intentionally not write it like that. Realism does not mean that something is well written or good. It's the other way around. Well written stories make realism look good despite being escapism.

>>159317067

Well written? What? Jesus Christ stop posting you idiot. None of the characters felt even remotely close to real human beings. Every interaction was so bizarre and contrived.

This anime would have been better if the MC guy kills the girl and then kill himself at the end, now that would have been a masterpiece.

>>159386755
>None of the characters felt even remotely close to real human beings. Every interaction was so bizarre and contrived.
you're really going overboard with this, rethink what you want to say properly and express it.

The characters were very believable, the way Azumi's relationship with his mother was presented was well done imo, it was simple and a bit cliched, but it works.
His friends were slightly more "caricatured" but nothing too out there, but at least Roman gets some subtle characterization added to him during the amusement park episode.
Azumi himself was good portrayal of a slightly introverted/composed kid, and considering that this seems to be a norm for Japanese people (and some of the Asians I've met) it made him feel pretty real.

>>159386566

This has to be one of the biggest buzzwords ever. It means nothing.

If this anime was realistic, the girl would go out with Hira instead and the MC would kill both of them then kill himself.

You should watch more anime, m8.

>>159387397
Not him but this series had a more realistic depiction of its subject than most anime.
The events that occurred throughout episodes were very mundane and the characters didn't act too melodramatic about any of their circumstances.
I think a lot of this is due to the performances of the VAs.
This isn't something I noticed until a while in but the voicework in this show isn't "acted" or "over-expressed" like it is in a lot of other anime, it's like the VAs were simply talking in the booth rather than trying to invoke a character.
