With that said, Its actually quite difficult to place Natsuyuki Rendezvous in a particular category. What can be said is that Natsuyuki Rendezvous is a series that will send you through a wringer of emotions. These will range from pleasant to exciting and cover the other side of the spectrum with tear jerking sadness and even deep frustration. The series is an odd, unpredictable beast.
