Love - the one force that simply won't be denied! Walking through the park, aspiring rock star Shuichi's latest lyrics flutter away and land at the feet of a stunning stranger that takes his breath away. The stranger happens to be the famous novelist Eiri Yuki, who completely crushes the young singer by telling him he has 'zero talent.' Now, Shuichi's so annoyed that he's managed to finish his song just so he can find and confront Yuki! But, are his actions really motivated by anger, or has he fallen in love? (official distributor synopsis)

The story is quite interesting. I wasn't bored,on the contrary I was quite entertained. I was just a bit annoyed by Shuichi's behavior a.k.a. puppy dog, etc... But I can live with that, otherwise I wouldn't have watched it until 6am :-) And I'd take Yuki too... Plus, I've heard a lot of guys saying Gravitation is awful fun if you hey picture Shuichi as a girl, which – considering how it's cartooned – isn't a problem. I highly recommend the manga. It's even more fun.

When it's funny, it's funny to the last gag; when it's romantic, it's romantic with every line of dialogue and tear from Shuichi. Gravitation has proved to be a touching relationship story, a band's journey to the top, or a dramedy about overcoming the deepest desires, and despite its clear exaggeration, it works in all directions. You can't help but love the main hero for his naivety, and tears of laughter often flowed from me because of all his disguises or attempts. The fifth star hung in the balance somewhere in New York, because after a quick look through the manga, it is clear to me that the more dramatic storylines could have received more thorough attention. Nevertheless, this is an incredibly entertaining and heartwarming anime for anyone with an optimistic mood and at least a little bit of an open heart.
