I mean if there was one thing I learnt from myanimelist is to prepare yourself to see what the worst comments said. And frankly I have to agree with most that was said, a lot of these parings were bad or ridiculous, even when going in with the low expectations. And I'll start by explaining all the love parings this show has. Though I might end up spoiling who gets together I won't actually spoil too much of the show so you can enjoy it yourselves if you want to. Overall I find this show bad but there were some parts to it that made it worth watching. So this should actuality be a 4.6 show for me.
Ayumi/Zatsu/Misao (the two boys are brothers)
Aihara, I don't have much to say about this girl just that she spent an awfully long time to think of a reply to a confession. Besides her actually…

Hatsukoi Limited. Talks about young puppy love... Ahhhhhh <3. i totally remembered my youthful days.. oh those days... It reminds me of how good being young once...
You know when you see magic for the 1st time? And you get this amazing feeling after. Well that's how i felt from this anime, totally sparked some fire inside me. Love is also like magic, you're filled with mixed emotions but above it all the joy you feel after someone tells you i love you, it's totally heart warming. This is totally a hidden gem i am very glad i found it.
Art/animation is very very good!!!! I like the design on the female characters it's quite cute and lovely, i also like the design of the boys it really suits who they really are. I give it 10/10
The story is quite amazing too. Although it's not fixed on a…

"Are you in love right now?"
Well with this anime..it's more divisive than "in love" actually...
Hatsukoi Limited follows several unrequited relationships and each of the earlier episodes focuses on one set of relationships while developing the ones from the previous episode in tandem, which makes one elaborate love dodecahedron.
Well since this is a relationship-based romance naime, LA needs to start off with the characters themselves and their relationships. Let's start with Ayumi Arihara voiced by Mariya Ise, one of the genki ditz of her girl group who has a crush on Mamoru Zaitsu voiced by Miyu Irino but his older brother Misao voiced by Kenji Nomura also has a thing for Ayumi, she was probably LA favourite character in the anime mainly due to personality. Next we have Rika Dobashi…

Hatsukoi Limited is an interesting series depicting the first loves (Hatsukoi) of a group of middle school girls. It is essentially a relationship-based slice-of-life story. Though a show with many girls typically leads to a harem, this is definitely not so. Each of the girls has their own pick, and there are an equal numbers of supporting male characters.
What makes Hatsukoi unique is the sheer number of relationships between the characters. If you don't like keeping track of who likes who and who did what to who, then stay away from this. This is a really hard series to judge as I feel that capping the series at 12 episodes made the story progression rushed, especially at the end. Overal Hatsukoi was a fairly good watch, and the story is much improved from the author's previous work, Ic…

Well, i was excited when i started the anime.. and by the time it ended... I was like WTF is this??? all the pairs were wronk except aihara and zaitsu and yuuji and yamamoto... everything was going wrong... the sound was nothing good nothing bad.. just .. it was. and the story? it is divided in arcs so not much of a story in it.. art? the only proper art was Yamamoto's body and her curves... character? hey, if you look like a kappa, how can a beautiful girl like you?? it may be possible in animes but dude you can end up in jail at worst if you try to do something.... I want my 4 hours back.. excluding the 2 pairs i enjoyed watching- Yamamoto and Yuuji and Aihara and Zaitsu..

“All of us are in love. It hasnt all been smooth sailing. Mistakes may have been made. But the love we felt when we first met our sweethearts is certainly the most cherished thing. We will take those feelings one by one and carry them with us into our futures.”

Hatsukoi Limited. A hidden gem amongst all of the shows in its genre. This is one of those shows that I feel doesn't get as much recognition as it deserves.
Hatsukoi Limited, as you may be able to guess from its name, is a story about love. It's not just about love though, it's about many qualms an adolescent will face as they climb up the ladder to adulthood, their first love being one of the steps on the ladder. For many, we look to our first love fondly--those sweet elementary and junior high days spent with who we thought was "the one", and for others, we look at our first loves and remember the pain of rejection and heartbreak. Hatsukoi Limited capitalizes on each of these joys and flaws. A story about how ten teenager's lives change as love meddles in their affairs for the very fir…

Before you watch the anime, you can take my review and others as comparison to what you imagine.
"あなたはいま恋をしてますか？”
"Anata wa koi wo shitemasuka?"
"Are you in love right now?"
Maybe this question will be say numerously in this series. Your answer maybe various, but you will love this series if you search love genre anime.
Story: 9/10
I give 9 points, it has clear plot, you will not confused when watching this series. The story is quite complicated, one-sided love everywhere, well because of we cannot give spoiler here, you should watch it by yourself.
This series is adapted by a manga with the same title.
Art: 9/10
The characters are drawn smoothly, and beautiful. I love the most our princess-like-Kei Enomoto. lol
9 thumps for charactesr.
Sound: 8/10

Hatsukoi Limited was good but it was not great. I would say it's worth mentioning but in all honesty, there are other anime that I would recommend over Hatsukoi Limited. When I saw the first episode, I immediately compared this anime to Amagami SS and I can see that many other people have done the same. I will have to agree with everybody and say that Amagami SS is better than Hatsukoi Limited. That doesn't mean that Hatsukoi Limited was not a good anime. I just felt that there was room for improvement. Let's start with the negatives and we'll work our way to the positives because despite having some bad points, this anime is worth it for me to leave you, the reader, with a positive impression of it in the end.
Negatives:
I felt the storyline was very typical. Much more typical than other…

"A lot of stories about first love are about to begin."
Also, a lot of love triangles are about unfold. Hatsukoi (First Love) Limited. is basically a group of short stories about middle- and high-schoolers dealing with their first love that are somehow connected. The problem is, any of those couples could have their own show, and one or two episodes about them are just not enough. Still, the anime does turn out all right, with humour, sexiness, and drama included; not to mention romance, of course. Like I said in the forum, episode 9 is far and away my favorite, as it is the most innocent, mature, and tragic.
It is hard to tell the synopsis here because, as I just mentioned, there are a lot of tales, but let us pretend that the first one is the most important. Five middle-schoolers t…

A guilty pleasure of mine is shoujo anime/mangas. While this one doesn't really fall into that category, it still tickles my romantic bone without making me want to throw up from the mushiness. =P
Funny. Adorable. Sweet. Hilarious. Insane. Ridiculous. Unmissable.
If you have even an ounce of romance in you, you'll like this.
The cast of characters here are unique in some ways and cliche in others. Regardless, you can't help but fall in love with all of them.
One outstanding element I noticed was that it is highly successful in giving us damn ugly young men and have their personalities shine through so wonderfully, we can't help but fall for them. Or at the very least cheer them on in their romantic conquests.
If you like heart warming love stories without the gag-inducing sparkly pink…

* Spoilers Ahead *
Hatsukoi Limited is best described a collection of short stories revolving numerous characters each with their own unique story.
It's very hard to right a review with so many stories that are connected to only anime season, so i will break this down by character (Key).
Plot - Follows a group of 5 girls who seek a relationship or their first love, each episodes focuses on a different girl (First episode is Arihara Ayumi's)
Characters (Plus my opinion on them)
-------------------------------------------- Arihara Ayumi
- A bubbly character who is asked out by Misao Zaitzu (Monster). Though she claimed she would accept any offer, she is consistently unsettled by Zaizu's monstrous appearance. However, she shows she can be somewhat caring as well as crafty, you see her a…

for some people like me whose so picky in watching anime... when i first watched the episode 1 i find the anime boring but as i watch the anime until episode 6 the story's getting more and more interesting because first i was really captivated by the idea of the creator of this manga... you'll really wonder who's love will survive and in every episode it revolves each and every characters of the anime... slowly every character show their personal and emotional qualities and therefore we tend to know them in just 1 episode... and also most of the story in this anime happen in real life and to anyone i'll really recommend watching this anime though it's a bit ecchi and some fanservice, the story's nice

Hatsukoi limited follows the lives of a group of teenagers from a few schools that are connected in some way or another. It covers the early part of their love lives and deals solely with the issue of love. So for those who enjoy school romance you will probably enjoy this series.
The story i gave a 10 because it was clique but at the same time original at some points. While it's about a typical school romance it involves many characters that shape the story differently from a usual school romance. We get to see all sorts of love which is why i really enjoyed the series. From unrequitted to mutual to family. All are touched upon. The story can be said to be quite light hearted as it involves a lot of humour, but it is not too slapstick and it does have its serious moments which make the s…

Story:
It's definatley the type of anime geared towards people who want something cute, substantial with a little bit of fan-service which seems to work and not offset any bais on whether or not to veiw the series. The story follows a group of girls all ranging from different ages who fall in and out of love while also discovering what it actually means to love. It's not cheesy and the stories are realistic and often funny, and most of the jokes are very well placed.
Art:
The art works in favor for this anime because it's detailed in the character expressions and has this type of fluid motions that really help the story progress. The facial expressions shown propell the story forwards and show that sometimes diaolouge (internal or not) isn't really needed.
Sound:

"Men are all about appearance" Enomoto Kei
Usually I don't like watching shojo animes I rather prefer read shojo mangas, because I think that in the manga we can clearly see how much the mangaka is talented and got skills ...Well, anyway, ...
Hatsukoi limited I don't have a damn idea why I loved it so much ... The story is so educative I think, in fact it shows the different love problems the teenagers are having between hesitatation and temptation, the story is told in many diffrent scenarios and each time it focus on one character only.
I really did appreciate the simplicity and softness of the art design (no big eyes and brilliant hairs like we used to see in most of shoji/ecchi animes)
I have a great time while watching this series, too bad there are only 12 episodes :(.

When I first started to watch this show, there were a few titles that immediately popped to mind, School Rumble, KimiKiss, and Boys Be... I soon found that Hatsukoi Limited has more in common with Boys Be than the others, this is due to similar themes of young love, ensemble structure, soft almost idealized atmosphere, etc. However, what really differentiates Hatsukoi Limited from Boys Be and what really surprised me about Hatsukoi Limited was the level of comedy/fun in each episode.
Much of Hatsukoi Limited comedy was derived from its characters, timing, and a bit of slapstick. I didn't really feel dumber and rarely did things ever get really stupid for the sake of comedy. In fact the many times I laughed I would have probably cringed in lesser titles. This shows the level of skill that…

Usually I am not a huge fan of 12 or less episode series, but this was among one of the few that I really enjoyed. Each episode brought the story along bit by bit, and for the amount of characters that were involved in the anime, I was fairly astounded with how they managed to fit all of it into 12 episodes. There were a few odds and ends that probably could have been touched up a bit more, but no complaints there.
As a male, I did enjoy the random ecchi moments, but then I also did enjoy the way they could take the females, and be both serious and ecchi at the same time. Most times its usually either a serious plot, or just massive amounts of boobs, but this anime managed to create a decent (but not perfect) balance between the two.
After the first few episodes I wasn't really sure of w…

*One step at a time, slowly they find themselves falling in love.*
“Geez, women are so hard to understand” – Etsu Kusuda
Most, if not all male viewers tend to agree with that statement. The various male characters in Hatsukoi Limited (literally means first love limited) all experienced the same problem. But before you get the wrong idea, it should mentioned that this anime is directed from the female perspective most of the time. Hatsukoi Limited explores the early love life of a group of teenage girls and how they cope with boys that they like (or don’t like). While 12 episodes are hardly enough to cover any in depth relationship for over half a dozen girls, the story remains a highly enjoyable one. Simply put, Hatsukoi Limited is as close to an idealized slice of life / romance comedy…

Have you ever been in… love?
Well that’s the pop up question in this anime. It’s about love affairs that can be ended to love struck.
~Story~ [8]
The stories between each of the characters are a bit specific, somewhat predictable and have the same issue. The issues bring a funny and interesting twist. We can call it a “love triangle or a misunderstanding love”.
It's about middle-schoolers and high schoolers searching for their ideal prince and princess to be able to form their first love, and thinking optimistically to live a happy ever after but in the end they fall into some kind of other twist. Attitudes, appearances, and traits are the basis on picking their ideal one’s that make a well-formed twist for them to encounter. But the question is, does the searching and making love impr…
