Summer special should be treated part of an episode in "Something More Beautiful" and nothing more....then it wouldn't be so bad.
I totally enjoyed the 1st season. 2nd season on the other hand totally lacked depth of any sense. For 13 (or was it 12) episodes , it was 3/4 filler that we could've done without, and main plot was rushed to the dismal ending that we got. This is the fate of most anime that still have a manga that is only less than 50% done. (Now the manga should be almost done or already completed i think)
I've come to have some fanboy affections for Mahoro-san....but really, its kinda disappointing where the anime went.
