Most of us live in a world of noise, sound always enveloping us and surrounding us, but Yuki is a super cute and sweet cute college girl who loves cute things and lives in a world without sound, yet she lives happily and content as anyone, musing on things like cute clothes and love...and her soundless world is about to be colored by love after a fateful encounter
!
I love how the OP makes it look like this is some kind of college romance drama with a serious cast, but then the color starts hitting and you realize it's a pure and sweet Shojo romance, they even end on a kiss between Yuki and Itsuomi and everyone all colorful and happy
!
Probably the worst thing for a deaf Japanese girl is getting into a conversation with a foreigner speaking English...good thing Itsuomi shows up just in time to bail her out! Even if the dude actually did speak Japanese, funnily enough. But you know he's a keeper when he's even kind enough to slow his speech so Yuki could properly lip read him
.
Rin-chan is a great bestie! And it's always nice to hear Kaede Hondo Not only Rin clue Yuki into who Itsuomi is and makes her realize she's already crushing on him, but Rin's also crushing on Itsuomi's cousin and thinks it's time for the gal pals to team-up to get their crushes deets
!
Surprise Ryota Ohsaka! Also Itsuomi is very handsome in his uniform, as Yuki is quick to notice
!
So much English! They didn't even subtitle the exact English they were saying
.
It's great that Rin was able to get Itsuomi's cousin contact info despite being a blushing mess, but it highlights to Yuki how despite how well she acclimates to her disability, communiation still doesn't come as easy to her as it does to others. All the same though, shes got a great best friend in Rin who makes sure Itsuomi walks her home! Thank you Rin-chan
!
Itsuomi is a really considerate and protective guy! Keeping Yuki safe from a moped she couldn't hear or holding her hand in the snow...it's enough to make Yuki's budding feelings for him go into overdrive. And she finally works up the courage to get his contact info! You go girl
!
Who needs sound when you have something as beautiful and pure as Yuki's sheer joy that Itsuomi wants to get to know her more? That says more than any sound or word could say. That's the kind of smile that angels are born from
.
That Oushi guy is looking for Yuki? Hmmm
.
The ED has some pretty pastel illustrations of the cast! I especially love how it ends with Yuki and Itsuomi together and their world growing more colorful around them
