Natsume's Book of Friends Season 1 & 2 Standard Edition
“At turns exciting, touching and funny, 'Natsume's Book of Friends' is an anime anyone can watch and everyone will enjoy.”
- Ani.me
About the show:
Natsume has always been an
outcast because he inherited his
grandmother Reiko's ability to
see yokai (strange beings that
are invisible to most people).
After moving to his
grandmother's hometown and
accidentally releasing a yokai
who was imprisoned in a Lucky
Cat statue, he learns about one
of his grandmother's keepsakes,
her “Book of Friends,” which
contains the names of the yokai
she defeated, and allows its
wielder to command the yokai
named within. Since then, his life
has gotten much more hectic,
and yokai now visit him on a daily
basis, seeking to either get their
names back or take possession of
the Book of Friends.

“Absolutely one of the best anime series that I have been lucky enough to see over the past several years.”

About the show:
Sawako Kuronuma has had a
difficult time fitting in. Some say
it's her jet black hair, others say
it's her hushed manner of
speaking, while still others claim
it is due to her name's similarity
to Sadako, a character from a
popular Japanese horror series.
On her first day of high school,
Sawako meets the one boy who
treats her like a normal girl—
Shota Kazehaya. Through his
selfless aid, Sawako slowly learns
to come out of her shell and even
begins to make friends for the
first time in her life.

“One of the most meaningful romantic dramas I have ever seen.”

About the show:
Kitahoro High's second term is
coming to a close. After
dealing with dark rumors and
finally confronting her inner
emotions, Sawako knows the
feelings she holds for Kazehaya
are romantic in nature. She has
grown more confident thanks
to the true friends by her side,
but will they be able to remain
together even when school is
out? Will she be able to tell
Kazehaya how she feels?

“The story is heartwarming, the animation stellar, and the presentation is first-rate.”

About the show:
After ringing in the new year
with her crush at their local
shrine, things seem to be going
well between Sawako and
Kazehaya. However, a new
year means new obstacles to
overcome, and a young girl's
first love is no exception.
When Sawako begins to doubt
herself, her rival Kurumi senses
it and makes a few comments
that push Sawako's confidence
back to zero. When you add in
Kazehaya's misunderstandings
as well as a new boy in class
who seems to like Sawako the
same way Kazehaya does, it
sums up to equal another
exciting school year!
