We Were There

Let me try my best to make this review short and to the point. First, Bokura ga Ita is drama. Drama, drama, drama. If you don't want to watch a couple go over countless drama scenarios over and over and over, then don't bother with this show. Second, and this might be a slight spoiler, but if you like one of the male leads more than the other, this will make or break the series for you. The male lead that I liked a lot didn't win out in the end, so naturally, I'm a little bitter (okay, more than a little). Third, don't expect real life situations or problems. I don't believe Nanami or Yano handled a lot of their situations like a normal couple would. I'm definitely no expert on relationships, but sometimes you know how things would have happen. It's TV folks, expect some "Ooooookay" scenes. And as for my last point. The series was good enough to watch, but not good enough to warrant a "go see it now" from me. As I said, I was dissatisfied with the Anime ending, so I will most likely pick up the manga to see where it leads. Judging by my desire to read the manga after watching of the Anime, I should think that says it did well enough to see. á

Bokura ga Ita was one of the anime that I rewatched a couple of times and was totally one of the underrated anime out there! One of the best romantic - drama genres that will make you cry, annoy, laugh, swoon, angry, and OSTs were gold! Unfortunately, there is no S2 for exactly two decades now, so after watching, read the manga for satisfaction.

After rewatching this again, my heart aches. Literally cried a ton! The ending was unsatisfying; with that emotional scene, you can't conclude that it's the end. So, after watching this, I recommend reading the manga. Far from the pain of watching, the manga will torment you more and will reveal shocking plot twists. But the series itself was an emotional rollercoaster ride. Highly recommended if you're into heavy drama. The OSTs carried the emotions in this series phenomenally! (NO S2 AFTER 2 DECADES)

I found the contrast in this finale absolutely heartbreaking yet beautiful. While Yano tried to overcompensate with grand gestures before his Tokyo move, Nanami’s desire for just a "normal" day felt so much more profound. It’s a bittersweet conclusion that captures the ache of young love facing a literal distance. If you're into drama story and wouldn't mind the visuals, you can watch this.

Dang, this felt like a pressure cooker compared to the previous episodes. I was exhausted watching Nanami study for impossible exams while Yano stayed silent on the Tokyo move. It’s a grounded look at how adult choices wreck high school romance. The soundtrack’s ticking-clock feel made every silence heavy. I’m honestly nervous wreck waiting for his decision!

This episode was pure stress. I found it kind of frustrating in a good way—Nanami stuck over something as small as a gift while Yano is dealing with much bigger life decisions makes their emotional gap really obvious. The mood is soft but heavy underneath.

Felt like everything is quietly falling apart while everyone tries to act normal. The conversations are calm on the surface, but there’s this constant pressure underneath every scene. I actually liked how restrained it was—no big explosions, just emotional fatigue piling up between all of them.

This episode honestly stressed me out more than anything. Watching Nanami get caught between concern, frustration, and heartbreak felt painfully realistic, and Yano’s timing somehow keeps getting worse every episode. The final scene especially leaves this heavy emotional punch that lingers after the credits. Don’t skip it.

I knew this episode was going to go wrong the second things started looking too sweet. Nanami planning the sleepover felt genuinely cute, which made Yano suddenly leaving hit even harder. The emotional frustration here is almost painful, but that’s also why the episode works so well.

This episode felt like a bizarre social experiment. Takeuchi dating someone he doesn't like is messy and out of character. Yano’s anger was justified, but Yuri’s drastic new look stole the show—what is she thinking? Nanami’s date was a nice breather, but the tension makes this feel like mid-tier filler.
