However, this was marred by the very odd choices of constantly overexposing the backgrounds. The shots were well-framed and executed without too many issues. I have to say that Mune-Kimi knew how to chose it’s locations as always. If you ever wanted to capture the essence of generic shojo adaptations Mune-Kimi is it. In film form, it’s only an hour and forty-four minutes, and as a manga, a mere five volumes with twenty-five chapters. It’s generic as shojo gets, but at least has the courtesy to not over-stay it’s welcome. Much like prior reviewed Mairuvich, there was a reason that Mune-Kimi wasn’t adapted when it was publishing. I’m going to be very honest and succinct. High school hijinks ensue of course, in the rated-G shojo sort of way. Whereas Tsukasa is being pursued by the school playboy, Hasebe Yasuhiro (Itagaki Mizuki). Being that their third year is upon them, Tsukasa still has a crush on Hayato, meanwhile it’s come out that Hayato has a previous girlfriend, Mayu (Hara Nanoka) who wants him back. Arima Hayato (Ukisho Hidaka) transfers to Shinohara Tsukasa’s (Shiraishi Sei) middle school, and Tsukasa nurses a crush on him up through high school. While I didn’t know this at the time, Mune-Kimi is another mid-2010’s shojo that wasn’t particularly memorable but somehow got an adaptation.
