Plot
A series of short stories depicting the complicated love lives of eight middle school and high school girls, their classmates and relatives. These stories later intertwine to form a main story involving most of the cast.
Opinion
This was a lot of fun to watch. Very, very cookie cutter basic story line with no real twist, but good over all. There was actually character development for a change from some of the animes I have seen, just not reviewed. One thing that also caught my eye was the animation was a bit different than I normally see so it added a little something extra to watching it. As a warning if you don’t like ecchi shows then you should leave this one alone as there are a lot of ecchi overtones and scenes in it. It does get a little slow at times, but most of the time it will keep you engaged.
If I had to give one complaint about the whole show it would be they showed a bit of fighting in the beginning of the series, but non pretty much int he rest. Part of the theme is based on that fight. I think there should have been a couple of more as reinforcement to the story.
If you have an afternoon with nothing to do go ahead and sit down and watch this, but if you have to choose something and the choice is between this or something that is supposed to be epic. Go with the epic anime as this is again just a run of the mill same story structure as many other high school anime’s. Think of it as a bit like High School Girls.

Looks good! Do you know who created this? I really like his/her art^^
The character designs for the anime were done by Tomoyuki Shitaya. And the Director was Yoshiki Yamakawa. I really like the style too hadn't seen it before, or never paid so much attention. I am going to try to find more by both of them.
I'm a HUGE fan of this one. Definitely recommend it to fans of harems or love stories. Sometimes I like to think of it as School Rumble, minus the slapstick comedy.
