Actually, in fairness to the review, his main problem with Hiromi probably
was that she didn't do anything wrong. That's probably why he found her "boring"; in his mind she was something of a little-miss-perfect that wasn't worth the interest. But on the other hand, I agree with you that her situation made her interesting, and she wasn't as boring or straightforward as she might seem (in fact, a large part of what made her interesting was the way that she sort of indirectly shielded her feelings, similar to Shinichirou's mother). But I guess it's all about preference and taste. In the end the review comes down to "I wasn't able to relate to the main characters, so I wasn't able to enjoy the story", which I guess is logical. The problem is that, like most reviews, he makes it sounds like the characters are "unrelate-able", which just isn't the case.
