This series really surprised me with how good it was - my best friend isn't as into anime as I am but he really likes it so I checked it out on his recommendation and loved it. I think it's biggest strength is how the writers went "hang on, if we employ just this one really useful narrative contrivance of having people overhear each other when they're saying something important like a love confession or w/e that in other series would have lead to lots of misunderstandings and really drawn out the process of the couple getting together? Then they can have, bear with me guys cuz this is a lil out there... an actual relationship! (Rather than taking like 2 cours of eps to confess their feelings!)"
