Plots(1)
It is said that one of the qualities of a true friendship is to understand and be understood. Unfortunately, this can be easier said than done, particularly when it comes to being friends with someone that has no recollection of being your friend the week after befriending them. To become friends over and over, again and again... that is the goal of Yuki Hase when approaching schoolmate Kaori Fujimaya. You see, things aren't so simple when your memory disappears. And that's exactly what happens with Kaori – she's always alone because she can't commit anything to memory, even if that commitment is as special as a memory of one of her friends. No matter how cherished her memories are, they vanish by the time Monday rolls around. But Yuki won't give up in the fight for friendship as he embarks on a new mission every week to befriend a person he already knows. (Madman Entertainment)

The premise may sound interesting, but in the end... it's bland and flavorless, full of pastels, blushing, and the same thing repeated over and over again a hundred times (which is to be expected when the main character forgets after a week who she's been hanging out with, who she's friends with). There are lighter moments here and there, but otherwise the whole thing is as sickly as a premature baby. Even the musical accompaniment wasn't interesting enough to at least spice up this whole boring thing that drags like a bad smell. So I finished watching the whole thing, expecting the main character to become less unstable, but alas, it never happened. If you like romances that move slowly, where nothing much happens, the characters have only one trait, and it's all just the same thing over and over, going nowhere, where even the clichés aren't used that well, this is the series for you.
