A massive thumbs up to Gimai Seikatsu. A romantic drama about step-siblings that took it's time, does not go for cheap fanservice, explored both protagonist's inner conflicts in a mature fashion and ends with both of them simply taking it slowly out of respect for themselves, their parents and friends.

I’m glad they ended the season admitting to one another how they really felt. The last couple of episodes where they were lying how they really felt, felt really frustrating.

I like how the tension it gave was just enough. It wasn’t annoyingly dragged out. You can tell how conflicted they are by their feelings, considering the circumstances. You can feel both their joy in knowing the feelings are mutual but also the sadness and the confusion. But knowing they have each other to lean on while figuring it out. The pacing is top notch in my opinion. Some of the best in anime.

@@Hikari12217besides the fact imo that makeine, while mostly comedy, has also other aspects, you're right, a comedy can't compete with a story like this. That's because they're different though, therefore not really comparable, not because one is inherently better than the other. I'm not sure if that's what you were saying (though you saying "better story" and how you worded your comment makes me think so), but if that's not the case I also disagree about the better story, since again, the two aren't really comparable 1:1, as this one is more of a romance with psychological aspects, and makeine is way more of a slice of life comedy with romance aspects. The characters are pretty good in both as far as writing goes, same with direction, idk why you wrote that as if it was exclusive to this show

I'm glad the anime ended here. The good thing about this anime, is that despite it is a "stepsister" trope, the way both side handle their emotions very maturely, and understand they all have their own inner conflict that need to resolve. The process of slowly coming into conclusion, and rely on each other and to be opened towards one another's regarding this feeling is what really seal the deal for me. It was definitely a slow paced anime, but worth every second, It's heartwarming, heavy, and mix with adolescence's struggle.

I am glad the anime was able to somehow maintain the quality while adapting the content of the light novel even if dialogue was omitted. It is most likely boring to others because LN anime adaptions often progress slow due to trying to cram in a bunch of dialogue every episode. But watchers that love anime packed with monologue, or simply a slow romance that carefully contructs a relationship of a couple, will definitely enjoy this. This series focus on couple growth even from now to future events like Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotton, so I highly recommend!

The name and colorful lettering marketed it to the wrong people in the west so it went unnoticed. And in Japan it didn't get a lot of viewers either (Alya and Makeine stole the attention of romance fans anyway.) Season 2 isn't coming, but season 1 is still a work of art, and most people who watched until the end feel the same.

It's rather a masterpiece with some serious flaws with regard to putting tropes in the air, letting them fall to the floor and shatter into little pieces, and then just leaving them there without any effort to cleanup. This trailer is an exact example. "Days" is an exploration of the very fine line between Family Love and Romantic Love and how the artists walked the line without themselves falling off, is exquisite.

Why every human we look the same, with few changes between color and culture... and most importantly if there was only 2 at the beggining... how is possible that we CANNOT be together since we all came from only 2 persons Adam and Eve right... so we all are humans, and now we have to respect our siblings and none related blood brothers.... so LOVE can happen any time, the connection will always be there since WE all are brothers and sisters... If I were that dude and feel something like that with my step sister that is feeling the same for me, there is when you realize that with another women there will not be a REAL love connection. Better that BOTH feel the same so you both can be happy together until the end. This type of anime it does exist in real life, but 95% they make different choices and when they are already adults they can just say that they made a bad desition. So try to follow your heart more ofter, not what other says.

If any of you don't have the patience to wait the next few years for season 2, then you can read the novel starting from where the anime ended from starting at Chapter 49. If you're perhaps curious as to whether they develop a more intimate relationship.. They eventually end up sharing a kiss after a pretty heartfelt moment. I haven't finished the novel exactly but I don't think its possible for the author to pull out the kinocest(TM) narrative after something like that.
