I mean the story wasn't all that special and the rules weren't all that interestings, and for seo's characters they were pretty bland, but man the dialogue and the connection/intimacy was just amazing.

Kimi no iru machi has some hints of that like, eba and haruto at the lake for the fireworks or say all the haruto x akari moments catch the subtlety of half and half but then there are so many countless cheesy things that he reuses. If only there was some consistency.
