Let it be known that I have actually never really watched an adult anime–so I was shocked to find that this show teetered right on the edge, never actually falling over into the hentai zone, but at the same time far more risque than any other anime I’ve seen thus far. Right off the bat this bizarre and (more than slightly) creepy premise takes us straight into R-rated territory as the show has quite its fair share of almost-sex scenes. Neither of them have confessed their feelings, and, drowning in loneliness and pain, they turn to one another as substitutes, playing out their fantasies with each other’s bodies. Both of them are in love with their teachers–in Hanabi’s case, her homeroom teacher, who is her close family friend, and in Mugi’s case, the school’s new, cute music teacher who was once his home tutor. Story: A girl, Hanabi, and a boy, Mugi, attend the same high school. (Okay, maybe not almost everyone.) It was this point that drew me to this series, and indeed, the point that the whole show is based around, though as time went on it evolved a bit into something I wasn’t really sure how to react to. Almost everyone has known the pain of loving someone they couldn’t have, and almost everyone has felt so lonely they would turn to whoever was closest, just to numb the feelings for a while. You can find this line everywhere you go–in songs, in movies, in stories, in real life.
