One of my all time favorite animes. Spoiler warning for the review.

It being kickstarted with the gut punch of Koito's dead made me cry, and then later when Koito gets revived her not knowing Ai was even worse. Neiru's story while being my least favorite is a cruel story of vanity. Rika wanting to bring back a random fan of her's who starved herself to death shows character development within seconds of her introduction, and Momoe's general character is both great character development and a new take on relationship trauma, and what love can make you do. I am writing this before I rewatch the series and just thinking about it is making me tear up again. Even when I know all the plot twists, all the lore, and all the characters who die later, on a second rewatch this will still make you cry.
