Quote:
In a winter when he was in the second grade of the high school, Yuichi was hospitalized because of hepatitis. Soon, he became so good as to be scolded by the nurse for going out of the hospital. One day, he happened to meet Rika, a girl of his age, in the next building. He was fascinated by her beauty, but she was very selfish girl. Although she led him by the nose, he began to be attracted by her. However, when Rika told him about her illness, he knew why she acted so selfish; she couldn’t live long.
Genre: Seinen, Drama, Romance.

Thanks evil-samurai for uploading the covers

If possible remove the spoiler, since the covers of the novel does not spoil anything.

This one looks like one of those Korean soap operas where inevitably someone has a terminal illness and dies. My mom loves to watch those, even though they seem a bit generic to me. Anyway, I'll still watch it, because that girl is really cute!

EDIT: I just wrote up my first impressions + OP/ED.

episode 1

Takahashi Mikako is fantastic! Her serious/kawaii voice, so similar really to her voice as Ayu in Honey & Clover, just carries me away. I am totally there for this series.

The dorama-like illness/romance setup is far from a turn-off for me. It all depends on how they do it, and in this first episode they do it extremely well, with a nice touch, mixing comedy, warmth, seriousness and feeling. Seems like art to me. I guess I'll be reading some Akutagawa Ryunosuke now, as Rika does in the story.

Because of the character design and the little bit of tsundere aggression, Rika certainly makes you think a bit of Shana, but just a bit. She's both weaker and stronger. And this story appeals to me personally a lot more.

Including this series, I now have seen 6 different shows from 2006. I can now say I've found a good series from the year without any reservation. Here are some screencaps reduced in size who might want to see how the show/character looks..

Spoiler:


The following screen caps for the Shuffle-fans to bait them into watching this series..

Spoiler:


Btw, the first thing that struck me as the heroine appeared in the full view for the first time: Hey, that's Shana from Shakugan no Shana! Reasons for SnS-fans to watch this series.

ROTFL @ the boxcutter reference. XD

I myself am looking forward to this show, but I can't watch it since I don't know jack about Japanese. While I'm not the biggest fan of shows about terminal diseases, it reminds so much of a dorama (Sekai no chuushin de, Ai wo sakebu) that I loved that I want to see it myself. Hope it lives to my high expectations.

I'm a SnS fan and I actually did just pick up this title just because Rika looked a bit like Shana (especially the novel covers) and the fact that I'm a sucker for a good romance. Storyline looks solid and the character design is attractive to me as well, this has defiantly worked its way into my Thursday "must see" line up, fills the Shuffle hole quite nicely. The opening and ending musical scores are really good in my opinion as well, extra + there. Sucks that we have to wait a whole two weeks before we can see the next episode (stupid tennis matches lol).

BTW, that boxcutter analogy is hilarious.

I watched the first episode and it's pretty good. But if Yuuichi didn't confess to Rika, wouldn't that be a bit too fast? I guess it has to start somewhere in 6 episodes...

I also thought that the original novels was very creative in using the half moon element. In the anime, it's just as creative because I've never seen a picture of a half moon in any anime. It's pretty cool.

I must say, I'm pretty psyched about this show. Ayu's seiyuu+what seems to be pretty good production values=promising. My only reservation is the brevity of the series.

Is anyone planning to fansub it at this point?

Well, this site lists two groups that have planned subbing this.

After reading those reviews, I'm also looking forward for this series

On 27/1/2006 there is going to be released a full color story called:
半分の月がのぼる空 one day

Here is the cover:



The above is not volume 6 of the novel but only a full color 56 pages story

B6 wide seal
Price: 1,470 yen
Number of pages: 56
Full Color

Ahh also the first volume of the manga thats based on the seinen novel Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora is going to get released on 27/2/2006 (I'll post the cover when its available), yes the first volume of this manga will be released on the same date as the third volume of Kashimashi ~Girl Meets Girl~ manga

Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora manga is serialized in the shounen manga magazine Dengeki Comic Gao!

The mangaka of the manga is: B.Tarou
Site of the mangaka: http://www.boreas.dti.ne.jp/~bbrs/
(If I'm not wrong the site is for two mangaka, one is B.Tarou and the other is B.Gorou)

Check B.Tarou's works (on his site here), many of them are just lolicious, like these: (NOT WORK SAFE or HOME SAFE, anyway its just not safe anywhere to view these following pic)

1st example
2nd example
3rd example

No, thats it, I'm not posting anymore, check the site of the mangaka for more.

I was half expecting them to steal a Nissan Silvia and go on a long-distance roadtrip to some remote Japanese island to look at the sunset. Sure got Narcissu (doujin visual novel) vibes right here.

Anyone who wanted to see Kira Yamato with Shinn Asuka's voice should watch this.

On a serious note, this could be one of the more decent shows.
