For the past couple of years, I've been pulling my mama to the anime world by watching anime together. There's a limit to what I could recommend her because she doesn't like dark and bloody ones. I'm also not a huge fan of romance anime, so there's not many I could recommend from that genre. Luckily, we found a common ground and that is sports anime.
Because of that, we have almost finished watching (in my case, rewatching) a bunch of sports anime. So, I was racking my brain for something to recommend her that I'm also excited to watch again.
Ding! Ding! Ding! I found one. I remember being gaga over this anime with my bestie almost 10 years ago and guess what? My mama enjoyed it.
So for this contest, I'm also recommending the same anime I recently rewatched and recommended to her. It is entitled, Nagi no Asu kara.

Nagi no Asu kara (Nagiasu) or A Lull in the Sea is a drama, fantasy, romance anime released in the fall of 2013. The series has 26 episodes in total.

There are two types of people in the NagiAsu world; Thase that live in Oshiooshi (Land people) and those from Shioshishio (Sea people).
The story focuses on Hikari and Manaka together with their childhood friends Chisaki and Kaname. They're all from Shioshishio, but for some reasons, they were forced to attend the school in Oshiooshi.
The relationship between these two groups of people. isn't the best. Discrimination to the point of hatred exists. However, this relationship may change either for the better or for the worse as an impending doom presents itself.

If you're interested to know what it is, then better sit back and watch it. (^^,)/
I watched it for the second time earlier this month and my opinion on it didn't change. I still enjoyed the storyline, the beautiful art style and the gorgeous effects in the animation. The music they used in the anime is also really good.
Let me show you a promotion teaser below.

Did you see that art style? Waaa! It's really beautiful and the place is so mystical...
Although it's not Christmas or holiday-themed, this anime would show us the value of humanity and people's relationships; be it with their family, friends, partners or society in general.
It's pretty heartwarming, exciting and sometimes frustrating to watch. It's worth it, though. I hope you enjoy this anime as much as I did.
For those who have already watched it, please tell me what you think. Thanks a bunch and see you around, fellow otaku! ♥
