Sasameki Koto; All the whispered words go here

Sasameki Koto is one of those series that seems like a Frankenstein's monster. It's yuri but on the lowball end of fanservice. It's angsty yet laugh out loud funny. It's one of those series you read on a whim and for some reason, you just find yourself liking it despite it not even being your teacup, let alone a cup of tea that may, in fact, be yours.

An anime adaptation has started airing, and it's adapted insanely well. It's light on filler (which are non-canon scenes added to pad the episode count, not material you dislike) and heavy on the straight from the pages goodness. Needless to say, it still gets angsted over because people are morons and should flogged before being allowed near a keyboard, but I digress. It's one of those things that will have me ranting for hours because it, so I'll move on.

If you've not heard of it, chances are good since it's a monthly serial that's not Fullmetal Alchemist, it's the story of Sumika Murasame, all around wondergirl who is in love with her best friend Ushio Kazama. Ushio doesn't realize this, because the series would end too soon because she only likes CUTE girls, and Sumika doesn't fit the definition. And as Sumika twists in the wind trying to spit it out (some weird combination of I you and this crazy thing called love), we meet a cavalcade of characters with their own personality quirks. I'd list them, but I don't feel like it now.

*coughs.* Anyways, anyone else read this?

The person I'm not living with is heavy in to yuri and shoujo-ai manga, so she's constantly recommending stuff to me. And this was one of the few I took a chance with and ended up liking a lot.
