Synopsis

Before leaving her cram school, Nanako Misonō asks one of the teachers if they can become pen-pals. The teacher, Takehiko Henmi, is reluctant at first, but eventually accepts the offer. The story is narrated through the letters sent from Nanako as she enters Seiran, a renowned private high school for girls only. There she encounters many difficulties as an ordinary middle-class girl invited to the prestigious Sorority, the most traditional and sophisticated club on campus.. (Source: AnimeNewsNetwork)

G
GeneralMillsscored 80/100
emotionally vast and uncompromising in its depiction, Dear Brother presents melodrama at its most captivating
J
Juliko25scored 83/100
A surprisingly refreshing and elegant take on a tired old premise. But its very high on the melodrama.
S

Though sometimes dark, the anime carries self-healing messages.
D
Dreamweaver99scored 90/100
Un altro capolavoro della Ikeda, un gioiello di sentimento e regia, struggente e con uno stile visivo suggestivo
