Midori days is probably one of the most overlooked anime shows lately and thats really a shame cause it was probably the best romantic comedy anime in a long time. It follows the story of Seiji Sawamura and Midori Kasugano, Seiji is a tough yankee thug who everyone is afraid of so he cant get a girlfriend to save his life and Midori is an uptown girl who has had a crush on Seiji for the past 3 years but shes very shy and cant tell him. Then in a very odd twist of fate Midori ends up becoming Seiji's right hand. The following adventures and times they spend together are very sweet and endearing and funny. One thing i really liked about the show is i think everyone has felt the way Midori has at one time or another in there life, really liking someone and just not being able to tell them how you feel and wishing you could be closer to that person anyway you can and be yourself. The only sort of complaint i have is that its only 13 episodes long on 3 dvds so its over pretty quick, but all in all this is anime defiently worth checking out if your looking for a good laugh and something to make you smile and cry

You like cute things? You buy this. You watch. You squeal with delight several times per epy. You die happy. The End.

I read a manga before I watch an anime. I love both ! This is a very good series I has ever seen. I love Midori so much. She so cute !

I bought a normal boxset (with stikers). Now I want to buy this Premium boxset to complete my colletion :o), but I don't know what is different between a normal boxset (with stikers)and a premium boxset. Can someone tell me that? I really want to know that T^T

I think maybe premium boxset contain something very special, because it is very expensive! (more 40$ than a normal one)

Thank a lot !

First of all, I would like to say that I am quite disappointed to what they did with the anime.
The anime does not do justice for the manga (which is excellent, btw)
a. much of the story is skipped over and discarded
b. even if the manga was not read, the ending will seem rushed
However, if you decide to just watch the anime, it is a pretty good one; but, if you want something better, read the manga. It is only 80 something chapters. I'm sure you can find some scanlation site in the internet and read it there.
Anime after/without reading manga: 2/3.5 stars
Manga: 4.5 stars

Despite what the rest of the reviews are saying Midori Days though somewhat charming is just you average anime. I picked this up because it sounded like it could be funny, and its not really. For once the amazon review was right, Midori days would have been good if it had just chosen who it wanted to watch it. There is some fan fair and fighting for guys but not enough to satisfy guys. There is romance for the girls but not enough to satisfy girls. There is genually funny moment but not enough to make you feel overly amused. On top of this Midori's American voice is annoying. All in all if you're a girl go watch Chobits or Fruits Basket. If you're a guy go watch Tenchi. And if you just want a good romance comedy then go watch Love Hina. Only buy this series if you have nothing else to buy.
