I mean, she's definitely a lot more sane than Kanzaki ... :p Well, from experience, I think the combination of Kasai Kenichi and JC Staff work wonders. They did that to the dialogue-based Honey and Clover, and I hope they would do so with this series. And ... Asuka is the soccer player, right? :3 If she is, I really like her too. :p @usagijen

She sort of reminds me of Urumi Kanzaki of GTO, but Eriko's personality won't go that deep (or rather, psychologically disturbed? ^^;;) I think. From what I've seen in the novel, Eriko's abnormalities stem from the usual problems geniuses of her kind have. I'm hoping to see more depth than the novel (and perhaps the game) had. I am putting my faith in the staff working on this :) Aside from that, I just like to say that Asuka is the most admirable of the characters I see at this point :3 Eriko really lacks common sense and human feelings.

Only sick people need doctors, and in the world of normalcy she is pretty diseased. I hope that her character also improves. @RyanA Sup? :D (1) I assumed it was going to be a harem too, but because it was not it made me more favorable towards the series. (2) Yes. (3) There is no Makoto. There must be no Makoto. Or else I am personally going to burn JC Staff down. :p @elvyse Kimikiss is in a predicament. Its predecessors were very well-made anime, which suggests that at the very least, this series has to be one, too. Frankly, I love this show, but it does not have the pangs of anxiety and angst that was ever-so-present in HxC. I have not seen Nodame yet, so I cannot judge on it. I just finished downloading Umisho. It seems that it would be good for me to follow up on that suggestion of yours, wouldn't it? :3 @usagijen

So far Kimikiss has failed to really interest me. Yes the production values are good, but I wouldn't settle for anything less from the studio that brought us HxC and Nodame. The design especially is great. Still, it lacks that special something that makes me care for the characters. Maybe it'll grow on me. I hope so because it's a show I want to like. We'll see how it goes. And since you remind us that you've not seen much this year :-) , I'll make another push for Dennou Coil (because I still don't know if you've seen it or not). Hands on the best show of the year. I dunno. So far Kimikiss has failed to really interest me.

So, my heart is changing towards this, since A) I presumed it was a harem, but it isn't ++ B) It's a jumble of love stories, that adds driving points C) Makoto, from School Days is in no way involved, jk #animeblogger eeh, man I've not been on IRC in a _long_ time ^^ Good day to U :) You know what I thought would be something amazing, if the genius girl, wasn’t really a genius at all. *jaw drops* That’d really interest me.

So, my heart is changing towards this, since

B) It’s a jumble of love stories, that adds driving points
C) Makoto, from School Days is in no way involved, jk

Despite my bias towards Asuka (I blame the manga for this xD), I feel that Eriko will undergo the most development in the series. She has the greatest depth in terms of personality from what I can see (and I'm thankful that the anime made her have a more serious character, which adds more to that 'depth'). I believe that even if she doesn't get to have a romantic ending with Kazuki, we'll still get to see a wonderful development in her character :) I certainly agree with you there regarding Eriko.
