Affectionate Signs · 9:40pm April 25th
It's not every day that I see a romance anime that manages to get my all fluffy inside. Aside from The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten and others I may not have found yet. With that said, I was able to found another to add to my list! A Sign Of Affection lives up to it's name. Not just in showing growing affection between the Main Leads, but in giving proper and healthy representation to the Deaf Community. It follows the tale of College Student Yuki Itose and her upperclassman Itsuomi Nagi. After the latter helps the former one day on the train, he gradually opens a new wool to her, leading to a pure love story growing between the two. I won't spoil too much, but all I will say that it has amazing visuals, sweet - if not realistic - characters, and misunderstandings and drama is not dragged out unnecessarily. Skeptical as it may seem, I can vouch for this anime when I say that this lives up to its fame. For anyone who wants pure love stories without much of the typical anime shenanigans and how the deaf are represented, A Sign Of Affection may be the anime for you!
