Straight Flush
Putting Manabi Straight behind is like putting behind a very heartful conviction behind you; it’s just not healthy. Instead, I think, it’s a good way to do it is to commemorate it through rewatching :)
The thankful, yet unfortunate fansubbing effort is a good way to do it, and for every episode that I rewatch I can spend more time picking up things I missed the first time. I think one of these days I gotta start from episode 1 again just to relive the experience full well knowing the full revelation.
Hopefully the new season of shows will match the joy I get from watching this charming little thing.
But before the spring season hits and Haruhi Suzumiya on your screen turns a year old, this is a very good way to end a full run of 4 seasons; from one high school life to another. In some sense this is the “unappreciated” gem of last season, but I don’t know how many people can appreciate this kind of show. It’s going on my all-time favorites list!


I dunno… Manabi was good… solid, but I didn’t especially get into any of the characters. Yes, I appreciate the time and effort that went into the show, but in the end I’d rather more Futakoi Alternatives.
But I’m a weirdo.
I find that funny. Maybe it was episode 4, but after a while, I started to really get interested in the characters (save for Momo, but maybe that’s because of lack of screen time). This episode wasn’t as grabbing as the others have been, but it was still good to me. :3
Maybe I just have to see the rest subbed.
You know, it would help a lot if you had tags on posts. Just saying…
You mean, if I had tags for you to click on in the single-post view?
Ah, I see, thanks. Yeah, that was too simple…
I went ahead and changed it. Believe it or not it was on my to-do list for some time, just way, way down there.
