The anime “Whispering Love” is a must-watch for all anime enthusiasts.

The narrative starts when first-year high school student Himari Kino (CV: Hana Shimano) is captivated by the band ‘SSGIRLS’ and falls in love with Asanagi (CV: Masami Seto ), the guitarist and vocalist.
In the third episode of the previous broadcast, Yori asked Himari for her response to her confession. Himari revealed her honest thoughts, saying, “I don’t know what it means to like love in the first place.” Hearing these words, “If we continue to spend time together and think that I like you, then we’ll be together…” Yori said, “That means you’ll give me a chance, right?” Confirmed. In response to Himari’s sincere attitude toward her, Yori smiled and said, “I’m going to make you fall even more in love with Kino-san, so be prepared.”
Yori is often flinched by Himari’s innocent words and actions, but when she hears his handsome lines, he says, “I’m completely in love with you,” “I’m numb,” and “Yi-senpai, you’re cool in a natural way.” The viewers were also captivated.
In episode 4, “Progress, Impatience, and Quiet Determination,” Himari meets Momoka, who starts looking for club activities. Momohana is a member of the cooking research club, and her easy-going personality makes her attractive. When she eats the homemade cookies, Himari comments, “It tastes kind of fancy,” to which Momoka smiles and says, “Fashionable~? That’s interesting~.”
Many viewers were captivated by the gentle Momohana, saying, “She’s so fluffy and cute,” “She makes me feel like she’s a kind older sister,” and “I love how gentle she is.”
