Given, it's an interesting topic and has good reviews so I'll give it a watch. Wonder if 11 episodes is enough for this though hmm. Only that those kids kind of act more like adults than adults do in anime in most cases... The drama is really well handled. | ||

Space Brothers has an actual direction and plot to it, where slice of life shows tend to not have any cohesive plot its following (at least on the surface). Its really good, btw. oh I see, fair enough. I was planning to watch it, had it on my ptw list so glad to hear several people recommend it.

Paper thin drama and exasperating characters basically. Drama isn't a bad thing, but when it's exaggerated emotions racing at 200mph I tend to start rolling my eyes. It's why I gravitate more towards stuff like Yonensei. I see, makes sense. For what its worth, I took a look at Kimi and I just can't stand the animation and how in your face it feels. I think this was the exact same issue I had when I tried to watch it years ago so guess it's off the list now.

Definitely planning to watch it soon. Having said that, though there are some kids who are mature for their age, it still strikes me a bit odd that the author didn't make them a bit older. | ||

I think the author likes children and cute characters. Iirc it was in an interview I read. I think the age is actually important in this story. It wouldn't have worked the same way when they would have been older. I'm not saying that you couldn't have told a story with that topic with older characters but definitely not in the same way. If you do watch it, make sure you watch the specials instead of ep10. The specials are basically episode 10 split into 2 episodes with a bunch of stuff added that makes it a lot more coherent. | ||

So I wouldn't say like "significantly" less time. I was also working from home sick so I feel like I was definitely the one expending the least amount of energy. | ||

Anything double is significant, relatively speaking :p | ||

Oh ok, makes sense why he went with children then. So, watch 1-9, the special then episode 11? | ||

I watched 1-10 then the specials and then 11 and noted down that I should have just watched the specials instead of ep10. As said, the specials have everything ep10 has but add a few scenes every now and then that make the whole thing more coherent. I'm half-way through the manga and I think they tried to cut some corners with ep10, which wasn't a good idea. The manga can feel a bit incoherent at times and the anime actually did a great job at fixing that problem. Ep10 was the exception. | ||

I don't even feel like watching any of Wotakai, 3D Kanoji, Highschool DxD etc because Souma is just so much better... I do feel sad that Taneda Risa is gone now with season3 as she really carried that role super hard but I have to agree with Ice that Kanemoto Hisako is as good a replacement as you could have gotten. I wouldn't have expected her to be that good but it's still not Taneda Risa  Guess I have to fully commit to the Alice train now | ||
