I personally think that 2nd and 3.5 are better, in the fact that they are much more coherent. What bothered me about the original Memories Off was the fact that all three episodes are... separate.... and that kind of unnerved me a bit. I can understand how some of you guys think 2nd and 3.5 are boring, but I guess I can respect your opinion on that.
But then again, I'm the type of person who likes "watching paint dry."
(Oh yeah, I forgot about Yue's "yellow" hair. That looked so... wrong.)
