12 Days of Anime: Ef - A Tale of Memories

Episode 1 (Day 1)

The first thing I noticed about this show was just how gorgeous the animation is. The second thing I noticed was how beautiful the music is. That being said, even if, for some reason, the story and characters end up falling completely flat, at least those two things, supposing they stay consistent, will allow me to still enjoy the show to some degree.

Though, to be honest, at this point, I feel like I don't need to worry about the story or characters. While they introduced not only a lot of characters, but a few potential couples all in the first episode, it worked well enough for me to remember them and keep track of them. I only hope the couples continue to be balanced, though, and it doesn't all fall by the wayside to make room for only one.

And, just so you know, my favorite couple at this point is Hiro Hiro and... that other chick.
