A Chance Meeting (and a Lost Tourist!)
The episode kicks off with Mitsuyoshi Tada, a high school student who dreams of becoming a professional photographer. He's a quiet guy, always behind the lens. His life takes an unexpected turn when he meets Teresa Wagner, a beautiful exchange student from Luxembourg.
Teresa is lost and separated from her travel companion. Tada finds her in full bloom of cherry blossom. It's a classic meet-cute, but with a twist. Tada's known for… well, never falling in love! Hence the title, right?
Why It Works: The Visuals
The animation in this show is simply gorgeous. Seriously, the cherry blossoms alone are worth watching. Each scene is bursting with vibrant colors and detailed backgrounds. The animation style is cute and refreshing, which makes the whole show feel very pleasant to watch. The animators make great use of color and light.

Why It Works: The Characters
Tada is the stoic, dependable type. But you can tell there's more to him than meets the eye. Teresa is bubbly and a bit clumsy, but incredibly sweet. Her innocent charm is infectious. Together, they make an unlikely but endearing pair.
The supporting characters add even more flavor to the story. You have Tada's childhood friend, Kaoru Ijuin. He’s a bit of a goofball. And Alexandra Magritte, Teresa’s stern but caring companion. They create a fun and dynamic group.

The Humor is on Point
This isn't just a pretty show. It's also genuinely funny. The humor is lighthearted and often comes from the characters' interactions. Ijuin's antics are always a source of amusement. Teresa's misunderstandings of Japanese culture provide some great laughs.
