A Star Brighter Than The Sun First Episode Impressions from Anime Expo 2025 – All the News and Reviews from Anime Expo 2025

Sometimes it’s hard to do a good romance because many of them are presented in the same way. Usually, you have a shy girl looking up at a popular boy who needs to learn from themselves. I’ve watched a lot of shows like this, but I’m not bored about it Stars are brighter than the sun exist Animation Expo. If anything, the audience and I found ourselves laughing in every joke.

I think it boils down to how real it is. The protagonist SAE is unsafe for her height and is worried that it is not considered safe. She hoped that she would see her last person was Koki, a friend of her childhood, who shone so brightly in symbolism and literally. However, this childhood friend identity is not something that exists because of a fall. These are two childhood friends who do care about each other in elementary school, but they are slightly different due to different classes in middle school. But it only takes a simple excuse to rekindle this friendship – you totally believe that despite not having time, they never stop being friends.

If I have to give one major praise, it is its economics. To build a main status quo of characters that seem to be life in high school, this is a lot of things that happen in the first episode. Everything in the first episode happened in their third year of high school. We have a glimpse of their past, their current relationships, and a firm idea of ​​how connections will develop. It is indeed sincere and full of heart – it is enlarged by excellent production and directorship.

Aya Kobayashi Work as a director here if you are familiar with her other works, e.g. My Love Story with Yamada-Kun on LV999you can see a lot of similarities. The editor and director of comedy timing are live, the facial expressions are really cute, everything is like a charm. I’ll argue that a lot of techniques used Yamada Because someone’s metaphor is so bright, it works better here. Obviously, we are not the only ones investing in our two main leads, as AYA and producers YōkoShiraishi Those who feel more attractive to production workers are divided.

Later this year, I’m really looking forward to this series. It not only checks out a lot of boxes I’m looking for in a good relationship, but it also fills with a lot of hearts. The staff also mentioned that by the end, the title of the show would make sense. I don’t know if that means the whole season will be a complete story, or it will end in a certainty chapter of their life, but either way, I’m looking forward to it – you should be.
