This anime series is quite good for an old school series, but there are some shortcomings in this series, such as the introduction of side characters that is too fast, to the point that some characters suddenly disappear, or even some characters that only appear for one episode and then don't appear again, then the pace in the first cour (1-13) is too boring to the point that I want to drop this anime. The love story between Chiaki and Nodome is also very late that only 2 last episode is the most intense i can feels the romance
