A Condition Called Love

Pertama, aku sangat suka dengan pemilihan background music-nya yang sesuai dengan nuansa yang ingin dibangun. Lagu pembuka dan penutupnya juga ear-catching, enak didengar. Tapi menurutku ending-nya sedikit anti-klimaks, tinggal satu rahasia lagi yang belum diungkapkan sampai episode terakhir. Kedua, aku suka dengan pekembangan karakternya yang pelan tapi pasti. Tujuannya jelas, jadi saat menontonnya pun aku seperti ikut menyaksikan kedua karakter utama ini tumbuh dewasa.

Oh, now I get why Hananoi is still afraid to be honest with Hotaru. But it’s okay, I guess. And I’m so happy to see how hard they’re trying to compromise with each other. May this kind of love find us!!

Finally, the moment we’ve all been waiting for has arrived!! At first, it was a bit of a letdown… maybe because I usually watch adult romance anime where everything moves so fast. But watching this anime took me back to my teenage years, when everything happened slowly & careful.

I couldn’t stop grinning during this episode. Seriously, Hotaru is the very definition of an angel. She’s genuinely sincere and so kind to everyone around her. Plus, Hananoi is the type of guy who listens to Hotaru, which makes the two of them absolutely adorable.

This episode is so heartwarming!! I think if I were in Hananoi’s shoes, I’d be really sad, but it turns out Hotaru really made an effort. It’s so touching to see how they finally managed to reach this point.

I think if I had a boyfriend like Hananoi, I’d probably faint every time we got physical. The more I think about it, the more I realize that Hananoi really is a gentleman. At first, I thought he was obsessed with Hotaru, but it turns out that’s just his way of showing affection.

AAAAKKKK IT’S FINALLY HERE!! Oh my gosh, honestly, I’m so happy to see how their relationship has developed to this point. But honestly, I’m a little worried because we’re still in the middle of the episode. I wonder what’s going to happen next... but I hope THEY STAY TOGETHER.

In this episode, my emotions were really all over the place. It really feels like a roller coaster. It makes you feel sad, guilty, and awkward... this episode was just so intense. But I’m really happy to see the progress in Hotaru and Hananoi’s relationship. It’s so adorable!

AAAAAAA Finally, Hotaru is starting to figure out how she feels about Hananoi. I SWEAR THIS EPISODE WAS SO HEART-FLUTTERING BECAUSE IT WAS SOOOOO CUTE!! I’m sure Hananoi is actually dealing with some trauma, which is why he chose Hotaru.

We're already on episode 3, and I'm still confused as to why Hananoi is so desperate to start a relationship with Hotaru. I mean, to me, he seems kind of selfish... taking advantage of Hotaru's innocence (sorry for the negative thoughts).

Hananoi’s backstory clarifies the depth of his feelings for Hotaru, making their unexpected, fate driven interaction incredibly sweet. Although the unveiling of the past feels slightly incomplete, it remains a beautiful narrative of two souls destined to meet and feel loved.

After starting with an awkward relationship dynamic, seeing them gradually grow closer as they truly get to know each other has significantly developed the romance excitement in this story. And also, those overflowing moments at the end were incredibly heart fluttering.

The characters are truly growing, particularly Hananoi, as he has started to change his approach toward people other than Hotaru. These subtle shifts in his behavior indicate a significant maturity in the story. And, Yao’s wavering emotions add a compelling new layer to the plot.

This episode really radiates Hananoi’s complex emotions, longing, sadness, jealousy & the desire to be loved. These are such valid feelings after everything he’s been through, & they truly resonate with real world dynamics. Plus, the animation settings are absolutely mesmerizing.

The romance development between Hananoi & Hotaru is truly flourishing now. The color palette leans into soft pastel tones rather than dark colors, creating a gentle aesthetic that is incredibly pleasing to watch.Plus, those compelling scenes at the very end were truly intriguing.

The narrative build of this story is becoming impressive. The emotional resonance in this episode was palpable. Additionally, the sound effects were perfectly chosen, & the timing of the music in every scene was spot on. The inclusion of post credit scenes was also a great touch.

The introduction of a new character adds a fresh range of emotions, keeping the story from feeling stagnant or too reserved. It's gradually becoming more engaging. Plus, the moment between Hananoi & Hotaru was perfect, the atmosphere, aesthetics & sound effects were all spot on.

This episode is starting to show a bit of cute humor that I really enjoyed. The romance factor development is really progressing and interesting now. It effectively showcases those subtle moments of slight anticipation that deepen the narrative interest.

The story continues to progress, and the characters are gradually becoming a bit more engaging as their development unfolds. However, the pacing remains a bit slow, and the story has yet to find the dynamic momentum that will truly hook me.

The characters are finally becoming less reserved, showing the cute expressions I do appreciate, as it really adds a nice layer of charm.However, I’m still not fully invested in the story yet. I’m hoping the next episode finally delivers that impactful hook I’ve been waiting for.
