This is a funny and emotional story that shows that even though life shows us some unexpected turns, if you have hope, will, and entuthiasm, you’ll overcome them.

STORY

This story made by Studio Shaft , tells us about a common Japanese salaryman, Matsumaru Fumihiko, that, after being let down on a date by some girl, meets another girl, Onda Aka, that wants to be a Professional Seiyuu (Voice Dubber). It all goes ok, but the day after, Aka’s appartment building burns out, and she ends up living with Matsumaru for a while. . .Then the relationship between them starts to flourish.

GRAPHICS

The animation is “slow”; that means we’re not getting too many fast and vivid scenes in which movements may blur/slow-down/pixelate your computer screen. The characters are not highly detailed but they manage. Not poor, but not flashy or anything.

SOUND & MUSIC

Hmmm. . .I try really hard to remember a song from the OST, well, besides the Opening; maybe the “product song” in the latter eps., but nothing that makes my hair electrify.

OVERALL

This is a good romance series with slices of life; that means that the situations aren’t that improbable of happening to you single man or you companion-looking woman. On a personal note, I get “that” feeling when I encounter material which “market” is this kind of people (normal $alarymen/women) in which the story gives them a sequence of evnets that changes their lives, and is used to “cheer up” on a situation, or an event.. If you like to see stuff that can happen to you, go for it.
