Kuroiwa Medaka ni Watashi no Kawaii ga Tsuujinai

There is not a single room that Mona Kawai enters where she does not become the center of attention—dealing with this everlasting spotlight is but a fact of her daily life. Mona's absolute confidence in her own charms, however, is shaken when she meets Medaka Kuroiwa, a recent transfer student to her highschool. Unlike all other classmates who constantly fawn over her, Medaka frowns every time they interact. Seeing his disinterest as something to be rectified, Mona pulls out all the stops in the hopes of winning Medaka over, only to be met with one stern face after another.

Turns out, Medaka's indifference to Mona stems from his wish to one day become a monk, and hence must leave all worldly desires behind. As the unknowing Mona ramps up her attacks on Medaka, all her antics might lead her into falling for him instead.

This is a romantic comedy anime with a misunderstanding style that I quite recommend.
- MC who is quite innocent
- Blonde Heroin who is tsundere (it seems)
- Story about a love story in school
The right formula to make an anime story extraordinary. So far I recommend it, I give it a score of 7, maybe 8 if the ending is as expected. So basically this is the story of a high school girl who seeks the attention of the MC but instead becomes a story of misunderstanding that is quite romantic. There is also a harem story here, although it is only a brief fight over ... the MC by 2 girls. But it's still fun to watch.

Mixed Feelings

Honestly, it’s not great the perspective of seeing the girl trying to get the boy rather than the opposite and that’s the only interesting thing about it. It was boring until the last three episodes and I think the creator is the same because they spent the first three minutes of every episode of the same intro before the intro just to kill for time.

It took me a few days to watch it purely because I had it on in the background after I paid a bit of attention to it I didn’t wanna drop it but I also just rushed my way through sadly ... it’s just pretty boring

The main male character doesn’t look like a main character to me, I feel like the design should’ve been different

Overall, it was fine. You’re not missing much if you don’t watch it so I will get it mixed feelings and a rating of

6/10

This is disappointing, the animation is horrendous. Might be one of the worst adaptations I've seen. The color pallette/aesthetic is too bright and vibrant with no details. The manga is 10x better than this crap.

Mona's whole concept is to charm everyone with her appearance but she looks so bad. One thing that I kept noticing is how her nose looks weird, it looks fine in the manga but here it looks ugly. She has no charms at all.

I recommend reading the manga, the art looks best there but the development is slow as hell. That's all I wanna rant about, this adaptation is terrible ... but I'm generous so 6/10.
