Had finished watching another anime – “君が望む永遠” (Kimi ga Nozomu Eien).


This anime is not anything like the usual ones. There are no outta-the-world storyline, no battles nor fighting, no silly jokes. In fact, the whole story is quite gloomy, sad, and blue.


It all started when Haruka & Mitsuki were good friends in high school. Mitsuki knows that Haruka had been liking her classmate Narumi for a long time, so Mitsuki helped to bring the two of them together, although the truth is that, she herself had fallen for Narumi too. On the other hand, Narumi agreed to date Haruka initially bcos he did not want to disappoint Mitsuki, but gradually, he started to fall for Haruka's sweetness. As the couple got closer, Mitsuki got more miserable...

And then a tragic car accident happened... an accident which put Haruka into coma for 3 years...


Narumi and Mitsuki are both working adults now. They have also started dating during this period, and are even contemplating to live together. But all the while, the only thing that bothers them is the fact that, Haruka is still lying unconsciously in the hospital.

And then... Haruka wakes up...


To Narumi, he feels the responsibility to help Haruka recovers, by being the ever-caring boyfriend as always. But what about his current girlfriend, Mitsuki? To Mitsuki, she feels that she has betrayed her friend and hopes for her recovery too. But certainly not at the expense of losing Narumi! To Haruka, everything still seems the same as before... for she doesn’t know that she has actually been sleeping for 3 years already...


Love Triangle sia~ 1 guy, 1 ex-girlfriend, 1 present girlfriend. Both girls need him, both girls he has feelings for, yet both girls he will hurt. How??? Wat a dilemma~ anyway I dun quite like the character of Narumi. He is indecisive and way too nice!! Always giving in to what others made him to do. But the thing is, one cannot possibly be nice to everybody, cos in the end, everybody would only get hurt even more.


This whole anime made mi feel more like watching a dorama, cos the story is more matured and not so childish nor exaggerated like the usual animes. Very nice to watch, but a bit too sorrowful. I later realized later tt it is ranked #1 at AnimeNfo.com! A bit surprising... so most viewers actually prefer this genre of anime than those fighting ones like Bleach, Gundam or Naruto?

And realized tt this anime is currently showing on Central also, titled "Rumbling Hearts". Interested readers, can also go to this site again for direct download. =)
