Damn, this first episode really impressed me!

First we start with a general harem anime, but it start climbing in a funny way, his toughts in the second "confessing scene" started to get funny!

The second half was so damn hilarious, her dark toughts and expressions about the girls, with his pure honesty for us to watch, was pure gold, and when Pansy was introduced it turned into something even more hilarious, his toughts in her confession almos killed me by laughing!

I is very promissing for what i like, so i am gona pick this one aswell!

LOL interesting idea with the rehashing of the best friend trope not twice but three times .
Seems like a fun anime .

Despite being super hyped for this earlier, I’m actually enjoying Cautious Hero more atm.
But, let’s see how this all unfolds ...

I didn't expect this to be any good after the first 5 or so minutes but the second half of the episode was great. Looking forward to more.

Started like HenSuki, then turned into high jumping Emiya kun's best friend is Kirito as Mob.
Not sure of these relationships, but quite funny. Nice face details like amazing eyelashes.

I am blown away by how much I like this. I was expecting the typical high school harem romance with the push over MC. But this dude is no push over and he is out for blood. It subverted my expectations and I love it!

This is definitely the anime to watch for me this season!

LMAO! This anime is better than i thought it would be. It's like we are actually getting an anime from the perspective of the unfortunate best friend in a romcom series XDD
Pansy is a troll LOL, preparing the bench ffs.

I've been getting flashbacks to Gamers! XD

First 2/3’s of the episode wasn’t that interesting, but then the last few minutes with Pansy definitely hooked me into wanting to watch some more. I bet the book she held probably exposes the MC’s second personality like how in Chuunibyou, Yuuta had his second personality exposed by Rikka.

I like the main character. The character interactions has an intetesting dynamic as well.

Animation looks kinda tacky at certain parts, but that's a minor issue.
I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters.

If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate.

I wasn´t planning to watch it. Moreover, I do not watch school romcoms for a long time, actually more or less since my high school years. For whatever reason, I gave this show a try and I liked it. It is light-hearted and funny, some twists were predictable but still funny.

Second half was hilarious. Joro's monologue is hysterical. How Joro uses Engrish from time to time is funny.
This adaptation is even better than the manga and the LN.

Wow, that's some 360 degrees flip right there!

I was expecting a typical Harem show at first but that second half unveiling the main character's true colours was hilarious and great at the same time! Got to feel for him though, that deja vu moment must've ached. I feel like there is more to this given how exactly same the respective conversations went but I suppose that's just to elevate the Comedy more so than anything else. "East" and "West" gate though, what the heck is this about lmao?

Anyway, I'm really curious to see how the best friend will react when he founds out about these, he's clearly been misunderstanding a few things lol.

At least Pansy is nto him but not his ideal image apparently xD. I'm really curious to know what her game here is. How devious of her to summon a bench for making him go through all over again with a spicy twist xD. I could spot her stalking a few times but who would've thought that she'd come out clean like that. Got to say though, it felt as though the main character got isekai'd into the anime world with his fair share of anime knowledge xD. I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up like that lol.

Deku's VA though, certainly didn't see that coming.

Looking forward to where this is going~

The first 10 min of the show hit me hard with being to close to something like NTR. I predicted they wouldnt like him, but if the writter wanted to go that route, he shouldnt have dropped too many hints those girls liked the MC, and were trying to make him fall for them, just for then to try to break the cliche like that, it felt a bit forced there.

I would prefer some cliches to say the same, like the childhood friend (CH), having one CH is very close and seemly in love with MC, just for then to reveal it loves the best friend of the MC... you are trying to make people MAD here.

I loved the MC in the second part, they deserve no less, it would be poetic justice seeing both of the girls getting rejected by his best friend.
That stalker girl at the end is actually really cute, just pause when the camera focus on her eyes.

God damn the first half felt like watching some NTR hentai but without the hentai.

Yeah, and seems we will be getting alot more of that near the future, but I hope MC eventually stops paying attention to those two.

Went into this not expecting much since it sounds like a typical harem. Fortunately that wasn't true! I enjoyed the first episode alot, the writing was witty and funny. Joro seems like a typical protagonist, but I guess he puts on a nice look for himself but deep down he's kind of an asshole. It's a nice appreciated change instead of just having a shy nice guy as the main character. He felt used by his childhood friend Himawari since she did certain things in a sense so that he would help her out. Then he felt Cosmos used him with her sex appeal. Finally, glasses girl admits she has been stalking Joro and wants him to come too the library to talk everyday now that her feelings for him are out in the open. She's wants him to be himself, with his asshole side. Great start. 5/5

It's a theme with this show; all the girls have flower nicknames. It's not that stupid, really...I mean, there are anime characters named "Milk" FFS as their real names.

For this anime it feels especially out of place. Almost like parody-levels of bad.
I'm still not sure if this is anime parody/satire or actually an anime that tries to be taken at least somewhat seriously.

Library girl is the nerdy type with glasses who could be hot, like Naru Narusegawa. Just take those glasses off, quick makeover and suddenly she's a beauty.

MC seems like a usual cucked wimp but let's see. Friend zone doesn't cut it.

Lets hold a comrade for our fallen comrade, who died two times that day. Maybe two and a half times, even though the sinister love-interest doesn't seem like that bad a choice. But I bet she had more up her sleeve.

Liked the references and the third-wall-breaks. Where was that Deja-Vu from, tho? Kinda looked like Ani Ni Tsukero from the artstyle a bit...

Woman are scary...going on a date, giving mixed signals and friendzoning him....if only Joro didn't had such shallow intentions I would actually feel sorry for that bastard. At least he has a stalker who loves his true side. So far it seems like an interesting spin on the usual romantic comedy, especially with Joro's dark side. Looking forward to see more of the confession bench.
