Summary:
A shy and unconfident teenager, Itou Makoto, has resigned to stealing glances at a cute girl as they ride the same train each morning on their way to their high school. At least until Saionji Sekai surprises Makoto and chances a peek at a photo-snap of the beautiful Katsura on his cell-phone. After evilly teasing Makoto about his hopeless crush, Sekai offers to support him in his romance. So after many Makoto-pep-talks and lots of scheming, the three become close friends. Close enough that Makoto braves asking Katsura out on a date. And she agrees. Later that day, Makoto finds a quiet moment to express his thanks for all support that Sekai has offered him, and makes clear his intent on finding a way to repay her kindness. But he is totally unprepared and very surprised at the reward that Sekai has chosen. Sekai steals a long kiss from his lips, before breaking away to run for the train. Sekai turns and wishes Makoto well on his date.

Started out like any love triangle and like everyone else said the ending was kinda out there. This is one of those anime that you just... well... ya... left me in a stupor at the end repeating to myself "wow..." Jaw dropped and saying "wow...". If i had to describe it, it would be like the worst possible things you can think to do within a love triangle and you still wouldn't come close to what actually happened in this anime. Also never have i watched an anime that made me hate every single character with a passion. Mostly the guy but even the girls. Not sure why it's categorized as slice of life cause there is nothing easy going about it. Lots of drama, lots of angst, and a crazy ending.
