Ending (From My Perspective) - Ending is perfect but I was carving for more Kazehaya Sawako couple moments, The park scene in the end was not enough for me. I would have shown more couple moments between them.

English Dub - Not Available
Overall My Review - This anime was a roller coaster ride for me, sometimes its makes you happy and sometimes its depressing. The relation between Sawako and Kazehaya can't grow properly because of lot's of misunderstanding. It is expected from a romance anime. I literally cried in some scene. You will love the characters, everyone has a important role in this anime. I didn't like the starting of season 2, because in the end of season 1 they were holding hands and enjoying the day so you will expect that they will get more close but NO, they starts to avoid each other. The reason they gave us was they were feeling embraced so they can't face off each other, bullshit logic. Although this series disappointed me in some points but I can't ignore the beauty of Swasko and Kazehaya's relation. When they are in the screen together, it just clams you down. I try to avoid romantic anime because of complicated and depressing story but this anime has a much more brighter side than any other romance anime.
You can give it a try.
