Anime Suggestions: Ao Haru Ride (Blue Spring Ride) & Strobe Edge

BOTH manga are written by the same person so you literally will find so much similarities between them. Personally my favorite is Ao Haru Ride (Blue Spring Ride) since I'm not really a big fan of love triangles where one guy just suffers way too much. In Strobe Edge, it's just heartbreaking that one guy is left out after he tries so hard for the girl. Although Ao Haru Ride does end with one guy getting dumped, it doesn't have that much of a painful feeling behind it. Like it's all okay, and the guy isn't as hurt since the guy wants the girl to be happy, or something like that.

Ao Haru Ride ALSO has an anime out, and the good part is that the anime is almost an exact replication of the manga. So if you don't really want to read, just watch the anime and then continue to the mange from about chapter 13 or so.

This is the first episode of the anime.

The quality kind of sucks so if you want a better one, check animeshow or crunchyroll. Both sites have the anime in HD but the down part is that you have to watch many ads before heading to the video.

Both of them are romance, school stories with love triangles. The characters are drawn so closely alike that it's probably impossible, at least for me, to tell them apart when they are placed together. But either way, these two manga remain one of my top favorites, so you should check them out too!


Strobe Edge: Plot

15-year-old Ninako Kinoshita has never been in love until an encounter on the train with her school's most popular boy, the quiet Ren Ichinose. As she grows closer to Ren, she falls in love with him, but must learn to cope with the unfortunate fact that Ren already has a longtime girlfriend.


Ao Haru Ride: Plot

Futaba Yoshioka wants to "reset" her life. In junior high, girls ostracized Futaba because too many junior high boys liked her. The only boy Futaba liked, Kou Tanaka, moved away before she could tell him how she felt. Now in high school, Futaba is determined to be unladylike so her new friends will not become jealous of her. While living her new life contentedly, she meets Kou again, but he now uses the name Kou Mabuchi and has a cold attitude. He tells her that he liked her too in junior high, but feels differently now.
