Shouya Ishida, a boy always looking for ways to beat boredom, ends up looking for it in the wrong place. Weirded out by his new classmate, a deaf transfer student named Shouko Nishimiya, he deems her as the target of his ostracizing and bullying. Day after day, Shouya picks on Shouko, unaware of the effects of his thoughtless actions. He finally understands the pain he has inflicted on her when one day, his bullying culminates in her leaving the school, and his classmates begin to shun and harass him every chance they get instead. Determined to right his wrongs, five years later, Shouya, now a third year high school loner, meets Shouko again. Thus begins the story of a young man's path to redemption.

Ooooh. I've only read the first volume, but the overall idea looks good.
Also, I can't wait for KyoAni's adaptation *O*

I'm at the 5th volume, so hopefully I'll be finished by the time the adaptation comes out.

This series is short, but it has a great message and some likeable characters. I was drawn to it because I had heard there was some controversy over its release and wanted to see what the fuss was about. It's a great read if you want a quick, but meaningful romance/drama fix. I recommend checking it out! :)

I haven't heard of this one in a looong time. I really liked it - it was up there with Wolf Children for me.

Oooh I fell in love with immediately when I saw its entry in the Bessatsu Shonen Magazine. I'm so anticipating the anime adaptation. I'm ready for all the feels.

I, uh, actually just finished this series last week. While I did enjoy it, there are several things that grated at me that kept me from having it climb into my favorites.

I am looking forward to the movie, however.
