Finally got around to watching eps 12 and 13 of “Kimi ni Todoke” tonight. Aww. Twue Wove.

Strange. I used to laugh at the idea of romance in anime. I mean, they’re animated characters, for chrissakes, right? Why am I gonna care about their romantic life? … And yet, here I am watching this with rapt attention and dedication. Grr! Damn this human heart!  *shakes fist*

That said, I’m absolutely fascinated how much more serious a love confession seems to be in Japan. Here in the US, kids don’t give that much thought into even sexting someone, much less confessing love. … And as much as I like nudity, I gotta say, I think the Japanese are on to something much better.

… Just saying.
