"The Nineties politically started with the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolving on December 26, 1991, and ended with both the 2000 Presidential election which saw the victory of George W. Bush and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which left people so stupefied that it functioned as something of a cultural reset button." - TV Tropes' article on the 1990s

Ekin is really intelligent and genius. He can find the secrets like Sherlock Holmes. He has a brilliant mind. He is also lover but girl isn’t in love with him. He has really great will. We can understand this because he is loving the same girl for like 4 years. And he will continue to love the same girl forever. And she will never feel anything for him. That’s not problem for him. He loves her unrequited. He loves anime but not more than Beren. He loves his PC but not more than Beren. He loves Beren more than he did yesterday.
you should love Ekin.
