Comments:
In my review for the DVD 1, I wrote that the biggest reason why I
didn't care for this anime was because I couldn't relate to the main
character, Ichiro. I still bought the second volume because I wanted
to give it another chance. After all, I hadn't seen such a wonderful
casting for Kuwashima-san, ever, and the puppy (Jiro) was so
adorable. After watching 3 more episodes on this DVD, it hit me. Who
cares if I can't relate to the main character? He's not the only
focus of this anime. I also realized that I _can_ relate to Souta,
perhaps more than I'd want to admit. So, I am going to keep buying,
as long as the story doesn't focus solely on Ichiro.
