High school slices of life rom-com amination.
They both have the same Kind of pace and rythme, with deep inner teenage-hood thoughts.
"Just because" is somehow a bit more realistic (JUST A BIT).
If you like "skip and loafer" you really may enjoy "Just Because" too.

Nice and simple story, with quite a bit of funny moment that is actually a really nice touch. The ending was a bit rush tho, hopefully there will be 2nd season to follow up on the story.

It feels like maybe the author wanted to make your fairly typical high-school romance story, but that's not what it ended up as, it's got SoL, it's got friendship, a dark backstory and villain nobody asked for and not much romance, not in this season anyway.
All the characters are likable except for 2, one slowly gets better while the other needs to die.
Anyway, I guess I'm looking forward to more, but I wouldn't pick up the manga if they didn't make any more. 6/10

Wonderful down to earth romcom with sensible teen problems. All characters act reasonable, scenes do not drag on and could be pretty funny.

15, female, , adolescentAn adolescent (teenager) is 13 to 19 years old., bob cutA bob cut or bob is a short haircut for women (and occasionally men) in which the hair is typically cut straight around the head at about jaw-level, often with a fringe/bangs at the front. The bob is cut at the level of ears, below the ears, or above shoulders. If the sidelocks are distinct, it is possibly a hime cut., class presidentThey are smart, poised, caring, and they may butt their nose in where no one wants it.
The Class President is disturbed by how the lead or their friends don`t participate in club activities or how their grades are slipping and never gets the hint that nobody cares about that stuff.
Frequently admonishes the cast for small mistakes, helps makes up for the Two Teacher School, and may be in cahoots with the Absurdly Powerful Student Council. Almost always called "iinchou" in place of their real name., necktieThe necktie (or tie) is a long piece of cloth worn around the neck or shoulders, resting under the shirt collar and knotted at the throat., pleated skirtA pleated skirt is a skirt that contains pleats. Pleats are folds that are pre-defined with stitches and which can be both stylistic and functional. Common examples of specific skirt types with pleats include: school uniforms, tennis skirts, and kilts., skirtA skirt is a tube- or cone-shaped piece of clothing that hangs from the waist and covers the legs partially or fully. Skirts are often seen as garments for women, but exceptions exist. In anime, they`re almost always worn by women, generally as school uniform or workplace garments, and a man with one will likely be cross-dressing. Skirts that go below the knee are usually associated with strict rules and at times with winter, though even in winter anime schoolgirls in miniskirts can be found., studentA student or pupil is a learner, or someone who attends an educational institution. The may be understood to mean only those enrolled in some sort of educational institution, but, in its widest use, it applies to anyone who is learning, including mid-career adults who are taking vocational education or returning to university, or younger researchers or artists learning from a more experienced colleague and mentor., sweater vestA sweater vest is an item of knitwear that is similar to a sweater, but without sleeves. It is a popular misconception that a sleeveless sweater and a tank top are the same. This error arose from the differences in American and British clothing terminology.
A sweater vest is often part of a school uniform.

They can vary considerably; commonly, females will wear a sailor uniform (modelled off the British Royal Navy uniforms in 1920) and males will often wear a "gakuran", which is a dark button-up uniform modelled off Prussian army uniforms. But expect to see a substantial amount of variety., sweaterSweater is a garment intended to cover the torso and arms. Sweaters are worn by adults and children of all genders; often over a shirt, blouse, T-shirt, or other top, but sometimes next to the skin. Sweaters were traditionally made from wool, but can now be made of cotton, synthetic fibers, or any combination thereof., yellow hairThe character has yellow hair. This does not map precisely to real-life blond hair.

female, , black hairThe character has black hair., glassesGlasses (also called eyeglasses or spectacles) are frames bearing lenses worn in front of the eyes, normally for vision correction, eye protection, or for protection from UV rays. For practical tagging purposes, sunglasses should not be considered glasses; the "glasses" tag is specifically about the type that doesn`t block light. However, a character who wears prescription glasses with dark lenses or who wears both eyewear types should take both tags., introvertIntroverts are people whose energy tends to expand through reflection and dwindle during interaction. They tend to be more reserved and less outspoken in groups. Introverts generally enjoy time spent alone or with close friends, and find less reward in time spent with large groups of people.
Some of the typical solitary activities are reading, writing, using computers, hiking and fishing. The archetypal artist, writer, sculptor, engineer, composer, and inventor are all considered highly introverted.
Not to be confused as being shy - introverts prefer solitary activities over social ones, where as shy people (who may be extraverts at heart) avoid social encounters out of fear. Like extroversion, introversion is not a black and white measurement, and these people may share some of the same traits than extroverts., low self-esteemLow self-esteem is a lowered subjective assessment of oneself and of one`s own worth. People suffering from low self-esteem see themselves as being less valuable, competent, able, worthy, lovable, and so on, than they really are, or are at a permanent high risk of entering such a state at the first potential threat to their current self-image., necktieThe necktie (or tie) is a long piece of cloth worn around the neck or shoulders, resting under the shirt collar and knotted at the throat., school uniformA type of uniform worn in Japanese schools (called "seifuku" in Japanese), generally high school age or younger.

Twintails may also include a pair hair buns, one bun at the base of each tail.

female, , adolescentAn adolescent (teenager) is 13 to 19 years old., bishoujoIn the West, bishoujo are attractive girls generally from late childhood or early adolescence to late adolescence, especially those that appeal to males, and particularly fictional characters designed in a way traditionally associated to shoujo manga. Fictional bishoujo tend to be cute, pastel-coloured teenagers; they lack the sophistication of older women, instead having detailed eye and hair design, fluttery costumes often including ribbons, and all sorts of generally sparkly fluff., cardiganA cardigan is a type of sweater, typically a knitted garment, that has an open front., green eyesThe character has green eyes., long hairLong hair is hair from (but not including) shoulder-length, up to (but not including) waist length hair.
