Honestly, the only thing that caught my attention initially was the promise of a vibrant and fresh color palette on the promotional art (ala AIR, which was equally dull yet beautiful).

#Bokura ga ita episode 3 how to

I am not really sure how to take this series, but color me disappointed and not very impressed.ДЇor a romantic series it is exceedingly dull and not pretty.ДЇor a school comedy it isn't all that funny.ДЇor a slice-of-life story it doesn't feature much 'real life' situations.ДЇor the most part, Bokura ga Ita is about Nanami and her relationships with her classmates, which isn't all that exciting. That is mostly the reason that it stood out from the mass for me, I couldn't for the heck remember most other shoujo manga I've read lately since they all are that similar that any lines betweem them blur.ДЄnyway, looking (and hoping) for a good adaption here. That's actually my hope for this anime to retain its style, the director and most of the staff have worked on really good adaptions such as the ones you named, thus it should be possible to make an adaption which doesn't screw up its quite unique style.ДЄs for the comments about the manga, face it, on an average out of 100 shoujo there will be only 3-4 which offer interesting ideas and stuff while the rest remains overall the same, as of late the only thing which changes is the amount of sexual depiction and fanservice.ДЄnd this is where Bokura ga Ita actually shines, it doesn't need all that stuff, while it's true that the story and the ideas are as generic as it can get, it has a quite unique style and presentation and the 'drama' bits play out nicely. I also have high hopes for this series mainly because Daichi Akitarou, who directed the Fruits Basket and Kodocha anime, is directing it.
