"Araburu Kisetsu no Otome-domo yo" is an unconventional anime that explores adolescence, tackling topics of sex, love, and personal growth. It accurately portrays awkwardness and divides between those open to discussing sex versus those who aren't, while also grappling with love triangles and changing personalities in a coming-of-age narrative.
