About H2O: Footprints in the Sand

Looking for background on H2O: Footprints in the Sand (H2O ~FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND~)? This romance series by ZEXCS (2008) starts out like this. At its core: Takuma Hirose is a blind young male high school learner, though the cause for his blindness is undetermined. In order to heal his medical condition, he is sent to live in a village with his uncle.

From there, there, he runs into several girls, three of which stand out more than any of the others. They are Hayami Kohinata, Hinata Kangura, and Otoha. Otoha temporarily heals his blindness and Hirose uses his sight to help others.

As a romance title, slow-burn chemistry and believable dialogue are what keep it engaging. Voice work is led by Harumi Sakurai as Hayami Kohinata and Ryouko Tanaka as Hinata Kagura. If you count yourself among viewers who enjoy relationship-driven stories, put it on your list. The run is 12 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
