Whenever you are ready for a calming anime that takes on the school romance genre Tsuki ga Kirei is there ready to take you in for a wonderful story about the innocent side of love. Two young teenagers both strangers noticed each other in their classroom. A bit of a push there and a pull here and their romantic journey set off in the breeze. The story takes on a realistic yet simple path to develop the relationship between these two students. As they are still young people the awkwardness of being in the presence of one another and the uncertainty of how to handle it from here on out is refreshing to say the least. In short there is no forced progression. The character development to learn their blossoming love has a good pacing thats not too fast nor too slow maintained all the way up towards a satisfying ending. Other aspects are also present in the storyline such as the use of a messaging app LINE which reinforces the modern and realistic narrative and then there are the family and ambition subplots in the mix too. These help to tell a different perspective in their love life not only because they shift the focus to other things that we all experienced in our personal life they also add drama into the story. Thankfully no heavy drama is utilized as it is simply not needed to engage the audience with emotions. A mere and natural human feeling can be enough to do the trick and this anime executes it well when the characters express their own feelings in handling some of the obstacles they faced. Though there are some characters that fall flat it isnt enough to take away from the focus on the main relationship. The art style nails in giving a modern look of a Japanese suburb. There is no busy hustle and bustle found in a city as the backdrops of peaceful sceneries fortify the relaxing atmosphere. It isnt fancy but the peacefulness gives the story a more pleasant experience. While some scenes look pretty clumsy animationwise particularly in the CGI and running or walking sections overall the movements suit the breeziness the anime had going on. Strong white highlights in the hair convey an innocent almost childlike desire for a yearning love. It establishes the learning attitude of young people and this time its in the curiosity of a romantic relationship and how one should go about it. The audio part didnt really stand out compared to the story except for the fact that they are soothing. But in the last few episodes the use of insert songs bring out emotions within me. Perfectly playing at the right moment and time without feeling outofplace they complement well with the scenes at the end of each episode. I also want to mention how I find the Huhs and Ahs and Uhs of the main couple to be purely adorable to hear even though its a recurring thing. They were cute during their interactions with one another making me smile every time I see them together. Their purity truly inspire positive feelings inside my heart. Simpleness might not be a thing for everyone but a consistent and heartwarming romantic story like Tsuki ga Kirei is enjoyable to watch even if its on a one episode every two or so days basis. Its an honest narrative about a developing love between two young teens a straightforwardly beautiful experience.
