Fun show. I'm glad I picked it up. I was happy they had all the characters make in appearance in this episode. It seems like a lot of people didn't care for Maitake and Haruka, but I loved both of them. :)

Great comedy. Pretty good romance. I found it rather cute that almost every kiss between those two was while they were sitting. Now I know what to do if I ever have a boyfriend Otani's height.. because I just so happen to be 5'8" XD

These last few episodes seemed to have a lot of development (or maybe just more screen time for others) that felt like it should have been in earlier episodes. It was almost like they did things backwards with the way they had it all at the end of the show rather than the beginning. Nobu was the only other character besides Risa and Otani that seemed to get a lot of screen time, while her boyfriend Nakao was simply there half the time. Then poor Suzuki and Chiharu were non-existant for a good chunk of the show. I just would have liked to've seen their relationships a bit more than each of our main characters having THREE other people to get jealous of.

Is it just me or did Otani never tell Risa that he loved her?

Oh well, great series.

What a great series! I only wish NobuxNakao were the main characters, I've never hated a character more than I hate Risa, how much more obnoxious could they make her?

Whoa! What can I say! XD I totally love the whole series... (etoh.. gonna comment as a whole series though.. sorry..)

Anyway, a very hilarious anime to boot! Love Otani and Riza's reactions! The best! Especially their kansai way of speaking.. Otani's voice actor is really good.. don't know why he only got a few roles in anime.. Riza voicing as Nami's seiyuu was great! XD I can't help but laugh at every episode.. really laugh out loud at their antics! Gosh! Love those chars! I enjoyed it immensely so much that I still playback some of the scenes in my mind.. that's why I gave it a 10/10! I'm very easy to please! hahaha!

It was a pretty sweet ending. I loved it, mostly because of the comedy aspects. They also did well on not putting the supporting characters aside. The plot development was great, for it actually makes you want to continue to watch the next episode and more. (8/10)

Great show, gread plot and great ending. It needs continuation. A second season showing the life of the main charachters few years after the graduation would be really nice ^^

Haha I'm really glad i broke my habit of not watching shoujo this time... This was so funny that I'm still laughing while typing this comment.
Other good points - this was totally watchable even for dude, i can tell.
Both main characters got somewhat enough time and space on screen to express themselves and i was able to understand both them without feeling that story would be centered only around one of them.
Romance was really romance, their relationship evolved and suffered and survived and recovered.
Risa's facial expressions, hell that was one the fumiest thing i have seen in anime so far.
I liked songs as well, though i had to get used to opening at the beginning.

Not the best end but it had a very nice feel to it :)

I liked this Romcom because it kinda differs from most of the others I've seen, great character development and I liked how Risa kept fighting for Otani even if there was no hope at all with.

Overall 8.4/10 :D

Just finished rewatching it. Again. There is seriously -- imo -- no anime like this one. As anti-climatic as the ending is, I think it does a respectable job. I'm going to be bold here, and say that Risa and Otani have to be the best anime couple to ever be portrayed. Or at least that I've seen. I can watch this anime time and time again an seriously never get tired of it. In fact, it wont be long until I watch it once again. The. Fucking. Best.

I loved this series. I am so glad that my friend reomended ths to me

I love the part where everyone is lying to Kohori and then when the "old lady" says she was that age once he was all like
" I'm not being lied to again"
I really liked the begining and the ending the middle was okay to.
I think I would definatly watch this again!!

A rather nice final episode to a pretty good series. The stupidity of Otani annoyed me once in a while but aside from that both protagonists were portrayed likeable.

The main idea of Lovely Complex was...okay and after 24 episodes there aren't many negative aspects I could think of the anime did.

I thought it was a great watch.
However it really did take me awhile to get used to the pacing. Normally most of the events that would only take one episode in Lovely Complex would go over maybe 3-4 in a lot of other romance animes. A lot more light-hearted and a lot of the problems didn't feel as heavy as normal shows would normally make them but that's probably what makes Lovely Complex really good as well. Wasn't a bad thing but it really did throw me off for a bit. In the end though I really did enjoy it. Can't decide my score so I'll go half and half and give it a 8.5/10.

"I won't be lied to anymore."

That was definitely the best line of an enjoyable final episode. My one complaint might be that the pacing for this episode seemed a bit fast; however, that is to be expected since they had to cover Otani taking the exam, the results, the graduation ceremony, etc. Still, this finale did what it needed to do in ending the show on a high note.

As for the show overall, this was one of the better romantic comedies that I have seen. The main pair were great (even if I did occasionally want to smack them and have them hurry up and work things out); and the side cast were fun too even if, outside of potentially Nobu-chan, they were not really given a lot to do. This turned out to be an enjoyable, consistently funny watch.

(As a side note, it's unfortunate that Otani's seiyuu has not done any more roles beyond this - I thought he did an excellent job here.)

The animators did a great job of making these 24 episodes seem longer than they were. Im sad to see this show end though but anything past this would have been beating a dead horse. Its nice to see they ended the show where it started with comedy. 9/10

im sad to see the show end but it really was so much fun and so emotionally juicy otani was a prat mostly risa on the other hand was amazing 3years of chasing someone she really is a saint the rows between the two are so funny there on a different plain of existence. at the start of the series the voice acting i found rather annoying but towards the end they grew on me and because the characters where so different to the norm i know i will not forget them .

Hah! The whole scene where they were panting after completing their bike ride to the test killed me:

Risa: Exactly... 5 minutes before."
Otani: "I... I've lost all my memories of my youth."

I couldn't stop laughing.

Anyway, really nice ending, and overall, a really fun series. I agree with some of the others that the middle wasn't as good as the beginning and end. I think this could have been solved if the pacing was tweaked a bit. Certain eps near the end could have stood be stretched out a little more, while the middle ones were sometimes laid on a bit too thick. But overall, LovCom kept me laughing straight through, and I loved Otani and Risa, even if they did sometimes deserve to get some sense smacked into them. 8/10

I'm so glad I gave this a rewatch. This Anime made laugh so much and the Kansai dialect was just lovely. The voice actors did an amazing job, specially Okamura Akemi. Without a doubt the best rom-com I've ever seen, will definitely keep watching this.

Great series. Since it appears they left a lot of the manga out (and some folks said it was still ongoing as of the anime release dates) I may have to give it a read. I'll add it to my steadily increasing "plan to..." list.

Great wrap up! And its been my second time watching this but I still never get bored. That kiss was cute and meeting Risa's parents are hilarious. Haha, and that bike scene! Just love how they both support each other.

Overall, it is a great love com series :) Will probably watch it after a year again. The voice actors of Risa and Otani are perfect too, btw.

this has got to be my fifth time rewatching this show, it's like one of those awesome movies that you never get sick of no matter how many times you watch it, I hope that maybe sometime in the future they'll animate "Lovely Complex Plus" maybe as a short special since there was only four chapters, chapter 4 would cap off the perfect ending for this series anime wise since it goes a little bit past the graduation. Sort of like a nice epilogue.

"I was that age once too."
"I won't be lied to anymore..."

LOL that was gold. Overall a fun and silly series. I had mixed feelings, because the use of comedy in serious situations kept it lighthearted at some moments but then felt awkward in others. Also felt it got dragged out a bit and ran out of material a few episodes ago, but still was fun nevertheless. The graduation speech at the end was especially fun, albeit short.

7/10, a fun watch.

The begining of the show was pretty damn great and managed to capture the steps within such relationships in a very realist light while being really funny.

At the half point though it slowed down a lot and the same jokes became a bit stale. Still was alright.

Really didn't cared bout the other couples problems too at the end and the added drama between Risa and Otani didn't do much for me. But the ending episode was good enough.

Overall a pretty good show 7/10 for me.

It was a strong end. The end card was really cute :)

Of course, the two of them had to be late for the ceremony :P

I was really scared when Ootani wasn't responding :O
But fortunately, everything went well.

The scene on the bike was hilarious. That damn policeman again xD

Well, it was a good serie in overall. It took a strong turn at the episode 6 and then turned a bit in round, but it had a really unique dynamic between the two main. They had that chimestry we don't see often.

I found it really hard to discuss after each episode so I ended up not doing so

but I will for the last episode it was a really well done episode I love how they had went to the getting closer with each episode I did feel bad for Koizumi for each time he rejected her to the point that it reminded me of Kimi ni Todoke however it was a misunderstanding for that but other then that I do love this anime I dontk now if I am going to put it on my top 5 just yet but I think I might with every episode I wanted to continue watching I will say that the first few episodes did kind of bore me alittle bit but very soon after that it was easier and easier to watch and harder and harder to stop watching hell I went from 1 to 19 in like 4 or so hours Kimi ni Todoke was the same way for me but from episode 1 I was hooked.

I am really glad I did watch this anime it is very well played out.

I loved this series. It made me laugh, tear up, and most of all care about the characters. However, I felt the last few episodes were a bit underwhelming compared to the rest of the series. I dunno, maybe my exceptions are too high. I mean, I liked the ending but there was just something 'grand' missing. I kinda would have liked a look at how they worked out during/after university and stuff.

Overall a brilliant series. Great example of a comedy romance. Really gonna miss it. 9/10 :D
