Synopsis

High schooler Mari’s rushed morning takes an unexpected turn when she collides with another late student—only to realize he’s beastfolk, and he’ll be attending her school. Beastfolk and humans may share the same world, but it’s still unusual enough to draw attention, especially with prejudice lingering beneath everyday life.

Though Mari is initially uneasy, spending time with him reveals a person defined by more than his fur. As she gets closer, she finds herself captivated by his steady presence and genuine kindness—and by an attraction she can’t quite ignore.

Otaku Consensus

With You, Our Love Will Make It Through lands as a niche but warmly received shoujo romance, reflected in its solid 7.13 MAL score and AniList’s 69/100 rather than breakout popularity. Its strongest material is the character-driven handling of interspecies attraction, school prejudice, and personal growth under Shin Itagaki and Hiromi Kimura’s dual direction; the main reservation is that its 12-episode format and visible CGI elements can make the social drama feel more functional than luxurious.

Why You Should Watch

Watch this if you want a shoujo romance that treats attraction as something shaped by social pressure, not just private chemistry. It scratches part of the same itch as Fruits Basket in its focus on kindness, stigma, and emotional patience, while borrowing a little of Beastars’ interspecies tension without becoming a crime thriller or psychological allegory. The appeal is not spectacle; it is the way everyday school behavior turns into a test of empathy, embarrassment, and courage. Viewers who like romance with a female protagonist, a primarily teen cast, and a visible coming-of-age spine will get the most from it, especially if they prefer sincere melodrama over ironic distance.

Key Characters

M
Mari
Mari anchors the series as a shoujo heroine whose growth comes from confronting the gap between what she feels privately and what her school environment quietly permits.
T
Tsunagu Hidaka
Tsunagu is compelling because the story frames his steadiness and kindness against institutional awkwardness, making him more than the novelty of his beastfolk design.

What Makes It Stand Out

1
The production comes from Millepensee, a studio choice that pairs conventional school-romance staging with enough CG usage for AniList to tag the series with CGI at 35%.
2
Shin Itagaki has an unusually broad creative footprint here: he is credited as director, series composer, and sound director, giving the adaptation a centralized authorial hand across structure and audio presentation.
3
Hiromi Kimura is both co-director and character designer, which is especially relevant for a romance where the appeal depends on readable expressions and the human-beastfolk visual contrast.
4
AniList’s tag spread is unusually specific for a romance page: Shoujo at 90%, Anthropomorphism at 86%, Coming of Age at 80%, Bullying at 70%, and Love Triangle at 66%, signaling a relationship drama built around social friction rather than pure wish fulfillment.
5
The 12-episode finished-airing format makes this a compact adaptation, better suited to viewers looking for a contained seasonal romance than a long, slow-burn franchise commitment.

Fun Facts & Trivia

Fun fact 1: The anime is based on the work of original creator Chihiro Yuzuki, placing it in a shoujo lineage where emotional perspective and social acceptance carry as much weight as romantic confession.
Fun fact 2: Masakazu Miyake serves as art director, while Miyuki Kowata handles color design and Arimasa Oomi is director of photography, a trio of roles that shape how the urban-fantasy setting reads on screen.
Fun fact 3: Haruka Nunokawa is credited for editing, a notable role for a 12-episode romance because scene transitions and pauses strongly affect how intimate or rushed the drama feels.
Fun fact 4: Its database profile shows a series with modest reach rather than mass hype: MAL lists 7,264 votes, a 7.13 score, rank #3889, and popularity #4502, while AniList records 298 favourites.
Fun fact 5: The English title is unusually search-unfriendly: web results for “With You, Our Love Will Make It Through” can surface dictionary and grammar pages for the word “with,” making the Japanese title, Kimi to Koete Koi ni Naru, more precise for research.
