W: Wish, or Double Wish, is an anime adaptation of a pre-existing visual novel developed by Princess Soft. The anime is short, sweet, and simple. If you go into this anime expecting anything super deep and philosophical, you will be disappointed, because that isn’t what W: Wish was meant to be. W: Wish was meant to be a cute, light-hearted story, and it does this well.
Art: 6/10
The art isn’t anything ground-breaking, but it wasn’t meant to be. Being released in the early/mid-2000s, W:Wish looks like any other anime released during that time period. It isn’t necessarily boring or ugly, just very average. The art doesn’t add anything to the story, but it doesn’t take anything away from it, either. If you enjoy a simple, moe art style, you’ll enjoy the visuals of Wish.

Overall, it was okay. But don't let the genre tags fool you.
First of all, it's not a romance. Unless you think of an overly clingy little sister as romantic, I guess. There are no romantic feelings involved in neither side whatsoever.
Also, I wouldn't really consider it Harem. There are 2 girls clinging to him, which both are in some way (it's complicated) his sisters. That'd be a pretty small harem in my opinion.
So, if you want to watch this because you're looking for a harem/romance, you most likely won't be satisfied.
Considering the short duration of the show, the story was fine. As it also includes a supernatural aspect, some things are left unclear or simply have to be accepted 'as is' for it to work out. It's rather predictable, nothing mindblowing.

For a short series, W Wish is actually a very good anime. Considering that there's only 13 episodes here and each episode contains only 9 minutes of actual story content, I am absolutely blown away just by how well the pacing was done here. It is flawless. This anime doesn't feel rushed in any way whatsoever.
The story itself is fairly simple, a young guy named Junna Tono lives his days blissfully with his twin sister Senna. They go together to the same school, live in the same house and share every moment together. Beyond this blissful setting however lies a dark past that revolves around the day his parents died in a car accident. What exactly happened? Lo and behold, the central premise of this anime is born. From there on the story will almost exclusively revolve around Junna, his twi…

It's an ok-looking series with a neat premise. It's not that any of it is totally original, but it's done pretty well considering how short the series is, not to mention the short duration of each episode. I particularly like the opening theme. Not even in the top 10 in terms of my fav anime music, but it's worth at least one listen, even so.
I had a good part of the story figured out half way through, but there were some elements that caught me by surprise, so I wouldn't say it's totally predictable. The series could really use a re-writing and expansion, much like was done with Kanon with the remake Kanon (2006). There's some neat (albeit cliche) secondary characters that could have really been given some depth. As it is, only Junna, Senna, and Haruhi get any notable development. Even t…
