Episode Features and titles :



- this is the current Hatsukoi Love tree which im planning to update every development in the story.

REVIEW by ichvon [ i C h ] :

- its been almost half months I guessed when I finished the series in manga. After seeing the cover, im already hooked with it and
I just realized that I read it every weekly in Onemanga. I already expected that there is a big possible for the story to be animated
having a short number of episodes which is really good for animation. The manga is really a good series and I won't deny it especially
if your into Highschool romance, the good thing in this series is that they focus even on side characters which I supposed to be applied
in the anime as well. I didn't also expected the similarities of manga illustrations and the anime itself which I really appreciated much since
its really good to see what you saw in the manga after all. The fanservice is set to normal I think. As for episode 1 which is aired this last
saturday [4/11] the animation quality is good and the VA as well but I didn't expected that Rie Tanaka will be Misaki's VA. Im expecting for
more strong / appeal type VA for her. The anime will be focused on 4 main characters which I supposed to be correct, Ayumi, Misaki,
Koyoi and Kei. This anime will focus on each character having diffrent ways of experiencing their first love. Hope that this anime will follow
the manga story as well but im not expecting for season 2 since the manga is already finished at the middle but hope that they would
just make their own storyline as their own season 2. So what are your expectations bout this anime?

i haven't seen it yet but definitely on my watch list. Currently i almost like all animes from JCStaff

Might possibly check it out, but not the highest on my watch list as of now,
and with still more titles releasing, I might not have time to get to it.

Written by the same person who did Ichigo 100%. Seems like an ordinary type school-drama story.
But yes, if I have free time I'll check it out, perhaps. Haven't dLed episode one yet, but might soon.

when i saw it on the spring 2009 list, i was like YAAAYY!!! XDD

really looking forward to the anime, ^^ i hope they still follow the manga

i was waiting for someone to make this thread, or myself if no one haven't made it.. XD

[ r a i z o ]
- to be honest, im not aware of JC works...I only know kyoani since
they're one of the leading animation companies...

[ d a n c h o u ]
- try to watch it if you have time ;]
yeah there are quite good animes that are released this spring
but im really a fan of this manga so thats why I even spend time
creating the first post xD

[ t a t s u y a ]
- T.T Its good to see that you liked it too!! thats my main worries
too.. hope they will follow the manga series but if they follow it,
there would be a big possibilities that they will compose the 2nd
season by themselves [JC Staff]

[ r o a r ]
- lol the ratings are based on my review ;]

watched this. Haha, cute ayumi. And koyoi too later on :D

judging from the length of the manga, 26 episodes would be ideal to perfectly cover everything. Even with extra fillers maybe...
J.C. Staff is handling this, good. I trust them for school romance themed stuffs, toradora was great.

The opening song is bugging me a bit though, how should i say it... It sounds... old? Not in a bad way, i feel nostalgic even. Maybe the instruments somehow reminds me of the old onegai teacher's song. The melody also reminds me of some classic stuffs though i can't seem to remember the name. Ichigo 100% maybe? I'm not really sure.

ok, one more on the list. Damn this season is gonna be difficult to follow...

[ s a i ]
- yah I would agree that Ayumi is really cute x3

There is no way that this will be in 13 episodes after all..
so J.C. Staff handled Toradora? didnt know that one >,<
but yeah they did great on that story. Hope that they will
follow the manga story but for sure there will be several
changes after all..

Honestly I didnt like the opening song /sweat

seems like your already full with your list there xD
im just following Kei-On and Hatsukoi this spring

i just watched eps1, it's quite funny but is it gonna develope unexpectedly like toradora? i hope it does

@ich-san: JC-Staff did lots quality animes such as shakugan no shana, zero no tsukaima, toradora, honey & clover, toaru majutsu, hayate, asate no houko, azumanga daioh, shingetsutan tsukihime

I'll give it a try since i loved Toradora also.

[ t a t s u y a ]
- if your going to think, yeah I didnt see any shadows of
boys there too x3

[ r a i z o ]
- for sure it will develop if they're following the manga
but to be honest, since the manga doesn't have any season 2
it will be a hanging end for sure...

btw did you already read the manga?

thanks for the info!! really helped alot

[ k i r a ]
- I would recommend it to you ;]
this anime doesn't have that "too much depressing moment" after all

[ J a h a l a n g ]
- sure why not try ;]

i just found out about this, for those of you who likes K-on might like this
3 of K-on main seiyuu actually involved in Hatsukoi Gentei
Aki Toyosaki doing Yui(K-On) and Koyoi Bessho and also ed theme for both anime
Minako Kotobuki doing tsumugi(K-On) and Rika Dobashi and like Aki Toyosaka she's doing ed theme for both anime as well
Satomi Satou doing Ritsu(K-On) and Yuu Enomoto

they might get famous in the future currently i didn't see much works of them in anime world

[ r a i z o ]
- I only noticed that Yui's VA is same with
Ayumi but I didnt expected that there are
3 VA's in the row xD yeah for sure they will
make their own name >w<

-----------------------------------------------

watched episode 2, and as I had expected,
Misaki's voice doesn't her character..
I would rather vote for Inner Moka's VA
for Misaki...

well anyways, darn Misaki is really hot!!
way to go my misaki x3

I'll have to say, even the manga was too short. I absolutely love it.
And I'm loving the anime too, just wish it follow the same plot or make it way better.
They're all really cute even the guys I have no complain haha. I don't know but I have a thing for ayumi brother rofl. xP
But Misaki's soooooooo my type. /droolnosebleedfap.

edit: I just noticed ich has a thing for misaki too. :O

I'm really expecting that Itou Shizuka will be the VA for Misaki

Re: Hatsukoi : Limited [ 初恋:限定 ]
Link | by on 2009-04-25 05:18:06
i just think Misaki looks hotter in manga than the anime... XDD
