Just curious, how often do you end up only liking an anime AFTER the last show, because in the end it proved to have a great story not apparent from the first initial shows?
I just finished watching Manabi Straight. And to be honest, I nearly quit at ep 3,4,5 simply because, well, it's initially an odd looking show.
But by the last show it's clear, yes, I really liked this show.
It's drawn uniquely, well maybe not too uniquely. It has that chibi like style that I saw used in Lucky Star, where the girls look a lot smaller (younger) than they supposedly are.
The show has zero fan service, which means it's girl friendly, which means parents can't even come close to wondering if it is young person appropriate. I'm planning on suggesting it to a buddy to show his younger daughter.
It has a nice background message.
And over all, that's ok.
