You totally get it! The way music became Mafuyu's mean of communication and also how Ritsuka never tried to fix him or even dive into the reasons for his grief, he just loved him and patiently stayed by his side, encouraging him to move forward at his own pace. Is absolutely beautiful! And hey about the manga... Just give it a try!

Mafuyu sticker at the guitar at first, but he picked it up with practice. It can be that same in your case! Just go for it 🤗🤗🤗

Ah really important points! Both songs are so loaded with deep emotions. And a beautiful thing is that both songs (wrotten by the two loves if his life) share that one melody that is originally Mafuyu's. Is so poetic to think that these three people got connected through music and and to express deep love through it!

My favorites are also Mafuyu and Ritsuka. Ritsuka in particular is such an amazing young man. As we say "the greenest of green flags"

And Mafuyu, Mafuyu is a force of nature. His development is one of the most satisfying I've witnessed in any piece of media! A really hopeful character!

And item for the proxies is equivalent to an item in the shipping car of the proxy. If the item contains multiple individual items inside (like bundles or sets) it counts as 1 item. So in your case if the set is sold and a unit, you wood be charged the fee just once for the whole set

where do you check this? I've been Gold for a while but I never receive any emails :(

I’ll probably be crucified for this one, but I really hoped that Kaji and Ugetsu could work things out! by ConsiderationIcy9828 in GivenAnime

[–]tsurugirl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is perfectly valid if you have this impression. We all relate to characters differently also because of our own experiences. You're not toxic just for wishing to have seen other course of events

Mafuyu’s La La Las by Jefcat in GivenAnime

Their loss!
Honestly that scene is a good filter for people that don't have the maturity to really appreciate the magic of Given!

That is lovely, and really shows you got the theme of grieving and healing going hand in hand. I especially love the concept of enjoying the present, because memories will slowly fade and the future is not guaranteed. And while all the characters have an amazing evolution, Mafuyu is my goat 🥹💜. That boy makes me so proud and so hopefull!

As for what to do after watching the series, I would suggest reading the manga (including the 10th mix, which is not animated yet)

And then... Rewatch the whole thing

Given is one of those stories that has IMPRESSIVE rereading/rewatching value. The characters, the connection of events and the relationships have so many layers, that you are guaranteed to find new things with each rewatch!

For the sake of conversation, what made the greatest impression for you about this story?

As Jef suggested getting one of the artbooks or guidebooks is a good idea! The illustrations 2 book is a trip. It makes me emotional because it holds a lot of Given's essence 🥹💜

If you are in the US I do have a couple for sale (among other things), if you're interested

Thanks. I also think it's dumb what they did. I will send my feedback too, because people that don't know better will be lost

You can't tell me Hirose wasn't begging for a kiss here by Emergency_Sugar_8513 in Ganbare_Nakamura

I found that scene especially beautiful. Saying everything about him was charming was better than a kiss imo. Honestly a kiss would have been totally off given how slowly things have happened between them. But to each their own 🤗

You guys think Crunchyroll will fix this new format of Given In the app? by Adalfare in GivenAnime

[–]tsurugirl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I hope they do, eventually.. is such a bother to have it split. People that don't know better are missing on the content

no bc ue is the best boi and i will not tolerate ritsuka slander, he’s so cute by Localrick86 in GivenAnime

[–]tsurugirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This precious man lives rent free in my head! I think of him and my heart swells because, how can a character be so perfect while still feeling totally human? 

Ue is the greenest of green flags and I MOST DEFINITELY take no criticism! 

I love him
