Amagami SS is a romance type of anime that tells a story surrounding Junichi Tachibana, our main protagonist and six heroines whom each of them will have their own screenings. Being stood up on his last Christmas Eve, Junichi is having a hard time to forget about it and let it go, however, he is inspired to make everything different this year Christmas Eve.
She is one of the heroine in this series and she is your typical school idol, pretty and well-liked by everyone
First couple minutes in the first episode, I couldn’t help it but started thinking about Kimikiss Pure Rouge. Not only in term of story plot but also the characters’ design and guess what, after a quick trip to Anime News Network, the character designer is the same person as the one in Kimikiss Pure Rouge. My hunch was right after all ^^. As with Kimikiss Pure Rouge, Amagami SS is also a visual novel adaptation
This screenshot will surely remind us of Kimikiss Pure Rouge assuming you have watched it before.
Dug up my anime database and took a screenshot of Kimikiss Pure Rouge opening. The similarity is just amazing.
In the first episode, the main heroine is Haruka Morishima so it’s her story arc. Her character gives similar vibes as Mao-neechan in Kimikiss Pure Rouge.
Our main protagonist, Junichi, and one of the heroine, Haruka Morishima
I think I would enjoy this anime as I enjoyed watching Kimikiss Pure Rouge and high school romance is always a great watch. The first episode ends in such a way that makes me wanting more so it’s a good sign that I will continue watching it.
One can only dream to have her riding on top ^^; but our main protagonist, Junichi, apparently has incredibly amount of luck
On the other hand, this may just be another high school romance type of anime and the story plot is usually shallow. In addition, since it’s only 13 episodes, I am little concerned that each heroine won’t get enough screenings (two episodes per heroine), thus, there will be minimal character development and the audience won’t get to know each heroine better.
Junichi's imagination is running wild after Morishima senpai told him that Miya, his sister, is like a kitten that she would love to play and take a bath with.

I’m glad to see the show not loaded with the usual ecchi moments. The characters are soft to my eyes at least… and are somewhat believable. Morishima is quite the odd character though; hopefully she has some dramatic past.
If anything, I will remember that Tachibana has that awesome planetarium and was brave enough to confess on the first episode.
Fabrice´s last blog ..Panathinaiko Stadium
This show is clean of ecchi moments, other than, skirt/thigh shots here and there.
Have you watched Kimikiss Pure Rouge ? Morishima is quite similar with Mao-neechan imo based on the first episode. If she has some dramatic past , that would be an interesting twist to story plot.
It took me by surprise when Tachibana confessed to her as I didn’t expect that at all from someone like him ^^;.
It’s going to have 26 eps, not 12
Thanks for the correction. I got the information from Anime News Network. It makes more sense now since 12 episodes are too short for having an arc for each character.
