This was my first yuri movie and I think, it was a great pick to start, I can wholeheartedly recommend it.
I didn't know what to expect, I was a bit afraid of the subject to be honest, but what I got was a really well balanced mixture of romance, comedy, cuteness and seriousness. Nothing felt too much, forced, irritating, unrealistic or pointless. Just a well rounded story which picks up the thread at the point where other romantic animes usually end. The story revolves around the blossoming of their fresh relationship from the beginning to the fear of passing. Nothing we couldn't have seen in other romantic stories already, but even though, it's really a piece of art standing on its own.
I'm a grown ass man, but I must admit, this was heartwarming and adorable, definitely, will show it to the kids sometime.
(Mentioning that the show does not contain any fan service and all, is just a disgrace in itself. Obviously, it does not ;) Those tiny leaves popping out of her head when she is embarassed were really cute... Btw. Can we just have such determined male characters like Kase-san? Damn, Rascal was pretty close, but that show went into the wrong direction, imho.)
