Yubisaki to Renren is a shoujo romance anime -- i.e., the target demographic is girls between the ages of roughly 7 and 17. Shoujo romance anime often feature pure (so none of that ecchi crap) romances between the teenybop lead and Chad. Getting back to the anime at hand, I enjoyed my time with it, and thus heartily recommend it to any fellowcels in the mood for some feel-good boy-meets-girl goodness. I wouldn't call the anime exceptional, but it was solid.
the first episode has an interesting surprise if you go in blind like I did, so I highly recommend just watching episode 1 blind if you think this anime might be up your alley. I think episode 1 is quite representative for the whole anime in the sense that (dis)liking episode 1 is pretty indicative of whether you'll (dis)like the rest.
for those who want a bit more to go off of
Yuki, the female lead, being deaf gave an interesting sheen everything. Learning about sign language and the struggles of being deaf is the kind of thing that really spices up an anime for me, so that was a plus. If I had to name a lesser thing it's that the way Itsuomi, the Chad, treats Yuki feels a little infantilizing at times -- e.g., often when asking her a question, instead of something like "Wanna go?" he'd say "Wanna go? Or not?". His smile is very charming tho.
I don't really know what else to write. I guess I'm not very good at this so probably won't be doing this again.
