Ep.1 was fun because of MC trolling Alya
Ep.2 was great because of imouto and more trolling Alya
The anime would’ve stayed great if it sticked with that wacky comedy formula.

HOWEVER, the author felt the need to write something bigger.
So he started writing boring, serious plot (muh student council election) that’s been done hundreds of times in other series already.
The trolling stopped and Alya became just another boring tsundere.

And the MC, who was previously introduced as otaku nerd JUST LIKE YOU, turned out to be a secret chad who’s just hiding his power level this whole time because muh traumatic past. He also happened to be perfect in every metric. You might as well switch him with Ayanokouji at this point.

Agreed? I can't be the only one who thinks this

Well, you can't write a whole of volumes filling just a girl fawning over a guy in Russian, who also understands all of it. Tbh, that whole russian shtick just died after her confessing in Russian. So, now we get this whole family + student council drama. Just enjoy the animation and VA, that's what I here for tbh.

I agree with this and this is what I've been saying... It had so much potential to turn out to be an anime like Dangers in my Heart, Komi-san, Nagatoro, etc etc but they decided to focus entirely on Student Council elections. 8 episodes and Alya's character development is still not visible. And most of all, after showing us that voluptuous gyatt in episode 2 they can't just take it away

So taking the serious route with trying to develop her confidence through the student council elections is bad cuz it’s been done a bunch of times already. But going the goofy trolling route is good even tho it’s already been done a bunch of times as well? If you don’t like this direction that’s of course fine, but it’s not like the parts you liked were new or original either.

@MusashiKarlsefni 8 episodes of trying hard to write serious plot and Alya is still the same stuttering mess with no social skill, the chad MC had to save her every single time. might as well abandon it all and start writing pure fluff with funny russian dere reactions.... like in the 1st 2 episodes.

I think this series fell hard the second student council got involved and turned into lame as cringe drama series.
As you, I enjoyed
Ep.1 was fun because of MC trolling Alya
Ep.2 was great because of imouto and more trolling Alya
moments. The only reason I enjoyed this series from the beginning. Now it's gonna get a mediocre score when it'd done though.
I started dropping series that falls flat after 4-5 episodes but thought I'd give this a chance.

It’s a great school romance with the added bonus of a few time bombs lined up to liven things up as we go along (knowing Russian, Yuki being sister, who was mystery kid he learned Russian for). A realistic MC complete with confidence and sarcasm, a female lead gaining confidence thanks to support of entire friend group, good comedy, surprise pantsu… what dropped off? Your attention span?

It's just what blud wasn't expecting from a romcom, is all. He felt that the first two episodes were the manifestation of the whole series. So he felt disparaged for being proved wrong.


But, I can see where he's coming from. And as an LN reader, any anime-only who mistakes the initial episodes as the main premise of the story could not be more wrong. They are a part of the picture, yes. They are but a slight portion of a bigger picture.

Understandable I guess, but I have the opposite viewpoint in that it started with bait to draw in ecchi fans and then settled down to actually tell a good story. I don’t mind ecchi, but this seems better without it tbh. But should any more occur, I won’t be looking away like a gentleman ๐Ÿง

What did you expect to happen? No election? They mentioned they were part of the student council since episode one. It's not like the election is some random thing that was going to happen later. If the episodes are going to push on to the later years in high school. It's only going to be natural that this plot is going to happen. You make it feel like this came out of nowhere.

IKR. I prefer it without any ecchi or unwanted fanservice. Just wholesomeness. That being said, it all comes down to taste.


The LN is wild, though. The anime took it up by a few notches. And also the irony of them skipping a particular (ecchi) scene which was supposed to feature in the latest episode.


Oh well.

Agreed? I can't be the only one who thinks this


Yes the first volume is big bait and I'm sad people look at how the story goes by comparing it with the first volume / the 4 first episodes.


Roshidere isn't a braindead ecchi romcom, sorry.

HOWEVER, the author felt the need to write something bigger.
So he started writing boring, serious plot (muh student council election) that’s been done hundreds of times in other series already.
The trolling stopped and Alya became just another boring tsundere.

And the MC, who was previously introduced as otaku nerd JUST LIKE YOU, turned out to be a secret chad who’s just hiding his power level this whole time because muh traumatic past. He also happened to be perfect in every metric. You might as well switch him with Ayanokouji at this point.

Agreed? I can't be the only one who thinks this


Yes the first volume is big bait and I'm sad people look at how the story goes by comparing it with the first volume / the 4 first episodes.

I dont mind the election plot, rather have that than planning for the sports festival or the cultural festival and figure if they should do a maid café or a haunted house.

No buddy. Roshidere should not be anything. However anime watchers (I mean NEETS) should stop considering girls like sexual objects and thinking like if a guy has sister then it's incest material...

Roshidere is a story about teenagers growing up. Yes there will be romance. Yes there will be comedy. But no it's not limited to it. Even the Russian will start to disappear little by little from the end of volume 3.

The school festival arc is really deep actually so it's not your average no stakes event but the sport festival was a bit meh to me (It actually actualizes all character relations so it's necessary regarding the plot but there is no major event except something between Masachika and Masha)

@aurora_yuuki This anime is a romcom that has no good ROMance or COMedy past ep.2
@GangsterCat The first two volumes, as @DragyG puts it, acts as a bait for ecchi fans. I guess you would've regained your interest in the show (like most other users) had they adapted the hypnosis scene from V2 in the latest episode, which would've been much to @DragyG's dismay.


To summarize, it's a full-on ecchi scene where Masachika hypnotizes both Alya and Masha via a book that specializes in hypnosis. Nobody thought this would actually work. It proved to be effective, and Masha went... well... It's better left unsaid.


Back to the stance, Roshidere isn't centered around uncalled for fanservice or ecchi. The rest of the volumes still have them, to some extent. It's a story about struggles and hardship, about fortitude. How the two main characters help each other in overcoming their respective drawbacks; how Masachika tries to rectify his sense of low self-esteem and depressive mindset, as well as his relationship with his mother. Alya acts as a catalyst in his case, benefitting both of them as an emanation. While it has its wholesome and comedic moments, it is important to realize that, that's not the focus of the story.

I really don't understand why people complain about lack of fan service. Just go watch Hentai. There are thousands of them.
