The story of Masamune and Ritsu meeting in high school is just adorable. I love the flashback scenes showing the two of them interacting in high school - it's so sweet. It's also a great contrast with the present - where Ritsu is no longer the sweet, reserved, naive person that he was as a student.

The story easily surpasses Junjou for me. I found myself more deeply invested in Ritsu than Misaki, and I felt like the secondary love stories where more interesting than Junjou's. Although I still don't understand why different characters have to have the same exact hair (Shouta and Chiaki; in Junjou - Misaki and pretty much every one else).

If you enjoy the genre, World's Greatest First Love is a beautiful, mature love story that I hope will be continued in the future!
