It is time for the weekly anime recommendation, this week I going to introduction ef~a tale of memories~



Total episode: 12

genres:Romance,Drama

Synopsis:
Based on the visual interactive novel by Minori, featuring character designs by Nanao Naru.

The story revolves around the protagonist Hirono Hiro, a poor high school boy who draws shoujo manga for his living. One cold Christmas night after meeting a very strange woman in a church, who tells him that he`s going to meet someone he has to meet, his bike gets stolen by another strange girl. He runs after her and finds her collapsed on the street. Her name is Miyamura Miyako and her bag got stolen by a man on a motorbike. Soon after, they start hanging out together, enjoying highschool life. Miyako falls for Hiro pretty quickly but naturally finds a rival in his childhood friend, Shindou Kei, who has been dictating Hiro`s life since ever.

Story: 9.5/10
One of the best romance anime I had ever seen, they have a very interesting story line as they there two main hero meaning two story showing together at once. Of course the hero dun met with each other that is also another interesting point.

Art: 10/10
The best art ever, the dark atmosphere, and the details of the background and the characters, is the top in my eyes.

Sound 10/10
Same as the art, they put a lot of effort to the sound, it's kind of hard to explain until u watch the show yourself

characters: 9/10
The characters in ef ~a tale of memories~, are the type that you nether love them or hate them, but for me I like all the characters in the show. The character development is very nicely done, they clear the crisis in their relationship also how close they are.

Overall:9.9/10
One of my favorite romance anime, as there is very little flaw and nothing that I partially dislike. This is might be a little boring for people who like action anime. I would highly recommend this to anyone who likes romance anime
