Golden Time: Linda

Ok the next Golden Time woman up is Linda. :-)  Linda is a festival club member that Banri meets during his college orientation. She is very kind and Banri takes an instant liking towards her later on joining her festival club along with Koko. She looks out for Banri like an older sister. There are a lot of scenes in the anime where Linda wears ankle socks which conform to her feet giving us a good view of their shape. We are also treated to a couple of rare barefoot moments involving her in the anime as well. :-)

Some minor spoilers ahead:

Linda is revealed to be Banri's childhood friend from before he lost his memory. The two of them were very close and Linda blames herself for the accident that caused Banri to develop amnesia. (Banri was waiting to meet her when a speeding vehicle knocked him over a bridge.) Due to guilt, she doesn't let Banri know their past relationship when she meets him again attending the same college as her and instead forms a new friendship with him.

There were times when I was watching this anime that I wished that Banri would wind up with Linda instead of Koko. Koko is incredibly beautiful and she obviously cares about Banri a lot but it hard to compete with the way Linda look out for him in this. Linda is incredibly protective of her childhood friend and pretty much does anything that he asks her. She gives him space when he tells her to pretend that they never knew each other but she is there at the drop of a hat when Banri gets sick to care for him. Even when he doesn't know who she is, she is there to protect him. She really is the best friend that anyone could ask for. ^_^

Ok everyone. Still more Golden Time posts ahead. 

Have a great weekend and as always...more to come soon!
