Danjo no Yuujou wa Seiritsu suru? (Iya, Shinai!!)

A boy and a girl pledge lifelong friendship in a small town junior high school. The relationship between the two, who are destined to share a common dream, has passed two years without any particular development.

Himari Inuzuka, a bubbly girl who has yet to find her first love, and Yuu Natsume, a plant-loving boy who enjoys flowers, still spend their days peacefully as best friends in the gardening club in the second year of high school.

"If Yuu can't get married, I have to take responsibility."
"I'm having trouble now because after Himari said that, your brother began calling me 'My brother-in-law!'"

However, when Yuu reunites with his first crush, the gears of their relationship suddenly go out of sync! Will Himari be able to escape her "ideal friend" now that she has found love?

I don't know why there's so many negative reviews, they don't make any sense at all

But from my view, this anime truly was fulliling, after watching the last ep all I can say/feel is "omg this anime ended in a much better way than I had thought given what we saw last time, But after all of that, our blond hair boy Shinji IS THE GOAT of this ep, bro came in the last sec and saved these two lovable love-birds from separation. KYAAHHHH. But man, this ep in general was absolutely peak. From start to end, every single moment has been so fulfilling ... that I just want more and more. Also, given what Yuu was saying in the end, I'll assume that their story hasn't ended yet, which means we might get a S2"

After all that said, the main review for this anime truly is PEAK and by far the best drama romance anime of this year up to this point.
Our MC Yuu is a character that for the most and little, can relate with, a high school boy who has dreams, and that dream of his is to open a flower accessory shop with his best friend that he "loves" but for the most part the best way I can describe a character like Himari (Yuu best friend) is quite of a scoundrel of a girl who isn't honest of her love towards Yuu, it has gotten to the point where she would do many things that she would regret doing that would involve the characters in this show with her mess that she lays upon all because she can't be honest with herself. But there's much more to the story, so without spoiling it.

I Highly recommend for anyone who's reading this review that, don't paid attention to any of the negatives and trust me that this is a must watch anime romance and I bet you are going to love each events that unfolds, you''ll feel the cutsy aggression with each ep, cringy and 2nd hand emeberment moments and many more feelings. but that's the fun of a romance anime.
Overall, I rate this a 10/10
I hope you enjoy this anime as much as I did.

Mixed Feelings

This was, in many ways, your typical cookie-cutter rom-com that drew me in with a strong start. The chemistry between Himari and Yu-kun was charming at the beginning (it got kind of annoying later on), and the early episodes had me hooked. It felt sweet, fun, and had the promise of something really solid. But unfortunately, things started to go sideways pretty quickly.

The writing kept putting itself into awkward corners. Drama that didn’t need to happen was forced in, and the pacing lost focus. The initial spark I felt slowly faded, and the story drifted into limbo for a good while. It was frustrating to ... watch something with so much potential slowly but surely lose everything which made it unique or special.

Even when what could only be called a confession finally happened, and they gave us a kiss, it still felt weirdly vague. The ambiguity never stopped. Instead of leaning into the emotions it had built up, it kept dodging them. And when the big issue that had been blocking everything finally got “resolved,” the way it happened was ridiculous and underwhelming.

The emotional payoff I was hoping for just wasn’t there. The final confession lacked weight, and the words I wanted to hear were missing. It ended up feeling hollow, like a lot of buildup for a whole lot of nothing. And of course, just when you think maybe they’ll give us one last satisfying kiss, they pull the “interrupted at the last second” trope. Still, I’ll admit the last few minutes were cute and gave me a tiny bit of the energy I wanted. But overall, the show fell into the all too familiar trap of creating drama for the sake of it, and not trusting its own story to carry the emotion naturally.

"Can a Boy-Girl Friendship Survive?" had the pieces of a great romance, but ended up playing it too safe. While still more or less enjoyable, it’s a classic case of “what could have been.” A decent rom-com with heart, but not enough guts. Still enjoyable in parts, but ultimately frustrating.

Can a boy girl relationship survive, Verdict? Utter waste of time.

I feel as if I couldn’t care less about any of the characters other than the main characters male best friend because he’s kind of funny, other then that they are all cringey, messed up weirdos. Also, what is the point of enomoto??? I feel as if this show was supposed to be a sort of close competition to decide which of the two love interests would win, but it’s almost like enomoto ( black hair) is there for no reason, adds nothing to the story, or really the romance element other than her begging ... the main character to love her.

Now we get to the blue hair girl (Himari). Might be one of the worst main love interests I’ve seen in a long while. Pretty much bullies and makes fun of the main character the whole time and he still picks her. She’s narcissistic, rude and inconsiderate for almost the whole show. Almost everything she does is for her thinking that it’s in the main characters best interests, but in reality it’s for hers.

Finally, the siblings and every other character, dull, childish and otherwise completely annoying or a terrible person towards everybody.


Stay away if you’re expecting anything good romance or story wise.
