Oh sure, he did give a dying girl a "first love" experience- and to his credit kept it fairly innocent, so it's a pretty sweet episode and in another episode he does the Clarence the Angel bit from It's A Wonderful Life, showing a skating star what the "ordinary" life she longed for would have been like- namely, boring and banal. Haruto's aid to the "Sleeping Beauties" is usually much more passive often I couldn't figure out what he'd really DONE to help them at all, which made their gushing gratitude to him seem a little strange. So since 18if is set in the world of dreams, Haruto does even more spectacular feats of derring-do, right? WRONG. Kanon is set in the "real" world, though most of the girls' natures involved major fantasy elements, and its hero, Yuuichi, usually struggled heroically to help them, taking on "demons" with a sword, or trudging out into a blizzard- or at least he'd put his heart on the line for them, "marrying" one girl to fulfill her last human desire. Some comparison/contrast may therefore be called for: The first thing that came to mind when I thought about this show's setup was, of all things, Kanon (2006), because that, too, was a game-based show in which a young guy helped girls get through their problems, and the girls also ended up returning the favor. Haruto is assisted by a dream researcher named Katsumi Kanzaki (who appears in Haruto's dreams as an anthropomorphized cat), and a white-haired young girl named Lily. Haruto Tsukishiro is stuck in the world of dreams, but he seems to have a natural talent for (SOMEHOW) helping various girls who are trapped in their own personal dreams (afflicted with something called "Sleeping Beauty Syndrome") to overcome the personal traumas keeping them asleep, allowing at least them to awaken.
