Synopsis
In a quiet coastal town, a high school swimmer named Hajime ends up in an unusual situation: two girls in his life, Asa and Natsume, both develop feelings for him over the summer. Asa is a transfer student who joined the swim club to work through her parents' divorce, and Natsume is a cheerful girl who spends her time gardening. Rather than a rivalry playing out between them, they come to an arrangement: they'll share their time with him. That premise alone sets a different tone from what you might expect. These two-episode specials, based on a visual novel, lean into the emotional side of that triangle more than you'd anticipate. The art direction comes from character designer Tony Taka, so the visuals have a distinctive, expressive quality that feels more considered than most entries in the genre. There's a reflective, slow-summer atmosphere running through the whole thing: beach town, warm light, people figuring out their feelings. If you've watched something like Shoujo Sect: Innocent Lovers and appreciated when these kinds of stories take their character dynamics seriously, this sits in a similar space. It's not trying to be more than it is, but within those two episodes it builds genuine emotional texture around its leads. Worth a look if you're curious about adult animation that's putting some actual thought into its relationships.

jolyne_cujoh★★★☆☆EP 1getting a recap of all the hajime and natsume moments is a decent way to spend ten minutes but you really wish there was some new footage added in
jonathan_joestar_196★★★☆☆EP 1asa and the pool water looked great in the original and they look great here too because that blue color palette is just perfect
hassel★★★★☆EP 1the background art captures that hazy summer feeling so well that i felt like i was back in the original series even if it is just a highlight reel
toji_suzuhara_184★★★★☆EP 1natsume always had the better design in the original and this bonus just confirms it while everyone waits for more new stuff to drop
tokyoghoul_fan★★★★☆EP 1tony taka art is basically the only reason to watch this and seeing the pool scene again reminds you why the main series art style is so good
sailor_aluminum_seiren_391★★★★☆EP 1you can really see the difference in the line work during the close up shots, and it makes the old art style shine
eudial★★★★☆EP 1i was surprised by how much effort went into the background art for that outdoor sequence and it looked really clean
sheikah★★★☆☆EP 1the music they played during the transitions was actually really nice and it fit the mood of the scenes perfectly
rokurokubi_ronin_34★★★★☆EP 1that last shot of the sunset stayed with me because the colors looked so much more vibrant than the tv rip
keukegen_king★★★☆☆EP 1having shizuku in high definition is the only reason to even sit through this short bonus clip
kisuke_benihime_462★★★☆☆EP 1Seeing all these highlights back to back makes it clear how much that specific character design style from the mid 2000s is missed, because everything now looks way too digital. The way the lighting was handled in the pool scene is still impressive and it holds up way better than most of the stuff coming out today
byakuya_of_the_dreams_253★★★☆☆EP 1it is cool to have the best parts in one place and the animation quality from the green bunny days is still so distinct
necrozma★★★☆☆EP 1the way they cleaned up the visuals for the dvd version makes a huge difference in that shower scene
lordgenome★★★☆☆EP 1it seemed like there would be some extra content or a new scene but it really is just a highlight reel of what was already in the show
queen_beryl★★☆☆☆EP 1i wish i had checked the title before buying this because i already have the original episodes and this added nothing
