It tries to detach from romantic values trying to be realistic. When I watched it years ago it was ok, but now that I've watched it again I can re-identify certain archetypes and literary devices. I don't want to say it's one of the best anime I've seen in years, but I can cope up with its slow pace and character development. Also, the panoramic devices employed in the anime are really charming. It has that romantic perk I've always been fond of.
My suspension of belief could not handle the doctor. I wanted to gripe at him for the first few episodes.
Also that one "evil/bad" kid. >.> The yaoi fangirls who were skyping could not stop talking about it and it led to some people who looked over someone's shoulder to look at the laptop screen (at the very back so we don't interfere with people watching, yay uni class rooms) to giggle incessantly.
I should probably give the series another chance but egads the main protag for awhile... "STOP. BEING. A DUNCE. YER A DOCTOR."
