i followed this anime throughout my teenage years, and every time i think about watching the new adaptations where the characters are adults just like me now, i feel like crying. that's why i still haven't watched the new adaptation, even though i was eagerly waiting for it when i was a teenager.
i remember those afternoons when i'd take a shower while listening to the openings, and when i was reading the novels with them already grown up, feeling happy about arararagi's marriage.
