Pain, that was mostly the thing i felt this episode. pain.
I think i get wtf mami is trying to do, but holy shit does she have to be a class A certified bitch about it. Like blatantly bad mouthing a persons girlfriend calling them "cringey" and then the person themself, later acting innocent as if she wasn't the problem, like jesus christ have some self restraint with what you say, her self restraint is almost as bad as Kazuya when he hits the horny.
Honestly if i could sum up Kazuya, i'd say he'd be the equivalent to a 2 piece jigsaw puzzle, a 2x2 rubik cube. People can play him so easily i swear, either that be for emotions or money. I guess one thing i can like him for is his ability to speak up at times, but that gets immediately taken back because i just think the dude is just to big for his shoes, that scene with him and Chizuru at the table, they were in a delicate situation already and he'd dug himself a deep hole beforehand, and now it just felt like he was attempting to drag her in as well. Sometimes i can physically feel Chizuru edge ever so closure to cutting his voice box out.
i guess the only time i laughed, was when Chizuru suddenly came out of the toilet and surprised mami, get fucking gamered on mami know your place.

That's it, I cannot stand this idiot anymore, he's behaving like immature, insecure, and prejudiced 13 year old who seems is not going to change in the rest of the series (he's not even trying). I don't know what's going to happen but if he gets screwed by Mami or anybody, it's well deserved.

Of course, there's a beach episode. What else would you expect from a trash, fan service-inundated series. Jesus Christ, Kazuya is surrounded by highly manipulative people. His own grandma, his ex-girlfriend and even his classmates/friends are extremely manipulative. I have friends who have fallen victim to narcissists, both men and women.

I honestly don't think he's ready for a girlfriend yet, yes he's 20 years old but there isn't an age when you should or shouldn't have someone. He needs to work on himself. He has so many insecurities that it's extremely painful to watch. His own family and friends are using those insecurities against him. His grandma making him get a girlfriend and his friends taking him to places where his ex-girlfriend is. I don't know if this guy is a victim or he's just a fucking loser who can't stand up for himself. I'm going with the latter but I think he's a victim too. I don't know if I should feel sorry for him or hate him.

However, Kazuya is a pathological liar. He gets no pity from me. He got himself in this mess and hopefully burns but I doubt it. This is an anime after all. In real life, people like this are fucked up and can't tell the difference from reality and the fantasy they created in their own minds.

To see this chapter I had to pause the video many times since I could not bear the actions of the protagonist, I cannot believe how silly he is, but especially since I hate Mami-chan, few animes make me feel this type of feelings without giving me indifference characters

Bruh! Kazuya irritates me so much. Like why is simping over Mami when she literally said something that didn't sit right with him and he was still apologizing to her like what she said wasn't her fault, but it was her fault because she's jealous of a random guy she barely dated already dating another girl? Like Mami needs to chill and not be so pressed about Kazuya getting a girl and Kazuya needs to stop being so horny and see that Mami is not that good of a person.

Chizuru is far superior...both Glasses and Non-Glasses version.

I am convinced that this anime will be the dumpster fire of the season at the rate this show seems to be progressing in.

Oh well, at least we got to see Mizuhara tiddies.

I actually thing it's interesting and "fresh" for being a Harem Romantic Comedy. The problem is that sometimes the cringe is SOOOOO painful to watch, some situations and the extremely disgusting MC just ruin everything else.
I just hope the 2 heroines left are good because for me the main heroine is just decent, but I also think the toxic/b*tch ex is a good antagonist character and develops her function in the story very well, being a hateful character that makes the MC develop indirectly. BUT, If she ends up with Kazuma or he doesn't grow up because of Mami's Toxic influence (because of the main heroine as well of course), Mami will be a useless and wasted antagonist.
I have hopes that the shy girl will be a good waifu material, even if she seems to be the typical Hajidere character.

So a beach episode. Well judging from the PVs, I expected that the anime will have a bit of fanservice but goddamn thats a whole lot of tittes and panty zoom shots. (btw I'm not complaining or anything)

Not gonna lie Mami-chan is really cute. damn look at that smile.



I like the artstyle this anime is going for. Even though it's not that special, It really gives justice to 4 main girls of the show.

I don't know why but I really can't give any pity to Kazuya even though Mami-chan is just deceiving him. Mizuhara is just too kind to him even if she's just a Rental girlfriend.

Well this series definitely became my guilty pleasure this season and I think I'm gonna stick to it.(most especially because of the girls)

Curious to see what other personalities the 2 heroines left have in store for us in the future episodes.

Kazuya please... First she dumps you, then you go with a Rental to a little party and Mami throws lines at you for being too horny and all (which could be fact but don't be annoying and say it while a new girlfriend is also present...), just takes it without a budge and in this episode she gives you a little attention, throws the 'This way, Maya can't be born into the world' line and then tries to seduce you again to most likely deceive you again...
And here I am like; What is wrong with both of you? Woah.

Somehow, I love these romcoms though... Hope they will introduce the others soon.

The drama over their relationship had enough clash to made these series turned into some kind of intrigueing situations, atleast for me. Seriously, though, the fuck was that, actually? A non existence holiday in beach, led everything into somekind of a unique moment. It did solidified their characterization, once again, revealed their true nature of themself. Mami just a typical bitchy bullshit. Chizuru just your typical best girl best heroine. And Kazuya, the very cliche male MC with a lot of worse personality. Thats it!

Overall, its a nice episode to had seen them embarassing at any level. In the end, yeah, as i can see, everyone just fuck up with their idealism. Idk who the fuck was wrong. But to me, the drama was way too high to anticipated and i really enjoyed the direction. Damn, the first feel i did to liking a fast pace approach. Congratulations, then!

I don't really get or know what Mami's intention are to Chizuru and Kazuya, All I can thought is the beach episode comes so early yet good and really expecting some character developments on the next episodes especially to Kazuya for being a wimpy annoying virgin he is. It hurts me how easily this mc fall for cheap tricks.

That's all...

Oh god, this was physically painful to watch. I'm not meaning to say that it's a bad show, but Mami is pure sociopath shit, and Kazuya gets more spineless and a bigger SIMP by the minute, so watching the episode was a bit exhausting. I understand a heartbreak, but nobody can be THAT stupid. I honestly don't root for him but for Ichinose...

I don't really hate Kazuya since im 100% sure someone like him exists in reality, but I do cringe with some of his actions.

At least he knows he is scum, I might just read the manga at some point to see his development I heard there's not much but at least there is some development which is good, and it's still ongoing anyway so plenty of room to grow.

Chizuru never disappoints though undisputed best girl, Mami belongs to the streets.

Sorry to disappoint you but I heard from multiple people who read the manga, the MC has little or no development whatsoever. So it's better you don't expect him to have any development whatsoever but we can look forward seeing Sumi though

As far as ep 3 I thought it was good, it must be fate as Kazuya an Chizuru just keep running into each other while trying to stop seeing each other. As far as Miami I just find her to be the bitchy ex who can let go and really wants to control the situation, but is easily intimidated by Chizuru.

No girls deserves this guy. What a loser. Even if the rental gf was fake he doesn't even conisder her feelings as a human being. The ex gf speaks shyt about him but his all thirsty for her. ?????? clearly his deek controls his life.

im disappointed in kazuya, ik that mami pulled the gun and kissed him bc she is the manipulative bitch that she is but kazuya kept it going. I though that Kazuya was a more respectable guy even tho he is pathetic. My hatred for Mami just keeps growing and honestly i would beat the shit out of her to the point she is unrecognizable.
The episode was very hard to watch like the other two and if i didnt actually have some interest in the next ep i would have dropped this.

Kazuya is so horny he literally can't think of anything other than his dick. If he did he'd be able to see that Mami is obviously playing with him. Like even if he is truly in love with her, goddamn you can't be that stupid.

Yeah so I will drop this one. Not that I think it's bad.. It just makes me feel shameful and cringe about myself. It is like you can relate to the MC a bit, but his behavior is so unreal..and this kind of mess just never get resolved in those types of series.
Though I thought of an awesome "what if" outcome that will make this series x100 better. What if Mami-chan ends up sleeping with the MC because of jealousy of his girlfriend, then he ends up with "Yeah she (the rental girlfriend) is not my real girlfriend by the way". That would be truly justice him banging her and she did "all this work for nothing".

The girls are super hot, the art is great, but the MC is so cringeworthy and the situations he puts himself in get really hard to watch each time. I used to live by the no drop rule, but these days I find myself dropping shows. Sadly now I will drop KanoKari, but I might return to finish the show later on when it ends. Marathoning shows tends to lessen the pain usually.

Im loving this but get the feeling its going to end with no closure which will prob tank my rating for it. I hate harems but love romance. Who was the Maya - Mala - person Mami was messaging? Or was it a memo? Also i dont think her friends yet notice Mami's false personality.

I'm not sure if I would treat Mizuhara as an object just because she is acting as my girlfriend, but Mami is just a monster. I know we know things that Kazu doesn't (so that kiss at the end of the episode is pure manipulation from her part) but he is being a fool: Mami dumped him, in his position I would feel betrayed, then I would hate her, and then I would break any social link I had with her (which would include all of my friends, but whatever).

And ya’ll dare say this is a college setup when MC is literally just a dumbass horny bitch. Dude is a college student in disguise, you cannot be this dumb and pitiful without doing it on purpose (actually even on purpose it’d be hard to imitate this disgrace of a human trash)
First time I saw ED visuals, the girls were adorable, also I can get people liking Mami despite her toxic persona, I dated a toxic bitch before and had fun with it, just depends on how you can handle her toxic side and stuff to click.
