I had a great time reading its LN thats why I was expecting a bit more but I felt nothing but cringeness while watching the anime. I was so dissapointed specially the pacing. They adapted almost the whole volume 1 in just 1st episode like hell. Mc in anime looks f*cking dumbass compare to LN. How I wish some more average studio like Diomedia or Shin ei Animation or even Jc the goat Stuff adapted this series...

I'm not sure what to make of that first episode, what a weird first experience with this show.

The whole thing felt jumbled and irregular, the animation was pretty trash, especially the lack of detail in the backgrounds.

Thankfully, the main MC and the way he acts is interesting enough, at least for now.

Painful to watch...lousiest animation I've seen for something created recently.  Story is pretty lousy...bad script writing and lame dialogue (I'm fluent Japanese).  The characters are all pretty unlikeable on top of that.  The voice acting is not up to par either.  Looks like it's the ML's second job.  Low budget?  Rushed?  Well, I can't watch much more than half of the 1st episode.  Dropped.

this is really nice. at first i thought this would be crigne and lame and stuff but this was nice. the whole epsiode was entertaining though i don't understand wtf happened with that football at the beginning. i'm sure it will be explained later.

anyway, women☕. what do they want? i'm thinking she subonsciously got used to and attached to sajo's persistence and now that he has stopped she's feeling all alone. though it's kinda sad that she wasn't able to make any more friends because of sajo's continous attempts. let's see how this is dealt with.

but man i was horrified when i thought the guy at the start hitting on natsukawa was going to be our mc, he changed after the football accident so he's not bad at all now.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

That was quite good, but wtf is that sudden ball changing personality thing? Such a lazy way to make him realize how annoying he actually is.

I wonder if Sajou really got hit by that ball really hard that his mindset changed or that it was a crazy coincidence and his mind started going thru puberty at that very moment lol.

One of my favorite LN got an adaptation and they rushed it so much, one of the main strength in the LN is Wataru's monologue and its non existent in this episode

So we have an MC who's done being the punching bag and getting rejected and finally moving on in a way. Let's go man. We need more MC's like this to stop chasing the girl fr. Hope this gets better

Well the MC is very submissive to his sister and honestly he hasn’t really moved on from her

Ughhh this way worse than boring, this is thrash

Pacing is all rushed, characters are so boring they are practially non existent, the mc is such a twat I mean he acts like he got amnesia even though the fucking ball didn't touch him and nothing makes sense

I'm seriously confused. A bunch of random pieces of plot ... just happened ... very randomly. The dialogue scenes didn't make too much sense. And the characters are being all weird.

And there is absolutely nothing to make up for it. No humour, no witty banter, no interesting theme / backstory or whatever, characters all bland af, nothing ... it's so boring.

What was the full reason for his attitude change? To me it seemed like he took a step back after being pushed away so many times. At the end he seemed to have realised the impact all his "pestering" had had on Aika's other relationships and decided it was in her best interest for him to stop. Was that not it? I haven't read the source material but I quite liked the story

In my understanding, it looks like it's just some shock therapy, like when people are in a dangerous situation, their life flash before his eyes, and seeing his act all this time from a different perspective make him realize that it's actually annoying and will bother anyone in her shoes. That is why he realized and decided not to bother her anymore.

I don't get it. Maybe I am too dumb for this show...
Another hypothesis is that it's written by a social recluse who only has a vague idea how humans work or maybe written by an AI.

This was beyond terrible. How can you just ignore the BIGGEST appeal of the story? The introspective?

I completely understand everyone who says they feel confused. They skipped SHIT TONE of monoglogues, key story points and why he is now feeling the way he does.

This is just a huge disservice to the source material which is not really high literature to begin with but has its moments.

Skipping mother-sister insult tag team at the house during Aika's visit is flat out story breaking lol.

In the LN (and manga too) it was not seeing the ball itself but the sound it made as well when it hit the wall just behind him. It just made him snap out of a high so to speak. There were suppose to be a huge self-reflection scene at the toilet as well. They replaced it with dudebros coming and teasing him for some fucked up reason. That reflection scene alone would answer most of the questions people had after the episode.

I suggest anyone who wants to learn what is what to read  the first 2 chapters of the manga. Not as good as the LN obviously but it would clear some things.

He lacks self confidence. Like A LOT. He was drowning himself with his Aika delusions but he snapped out of it now to face his self image issues. This was futher indicated and reinforced during Aika's home visit with how his sister and mother treats the guy (they belittle and insult him next to the girl without care). This was entirely skipped in the anime along with his self reflection after the ball incident.

"What's the matter with this people?" the anime
From the looks of it, on what I've seen from the other comments that the story was rushed as hell compared to the source material.
Well overall for me its just a fine 2.5/5 episode. Quite the interesting premise but mediocre at best production value especially the character design.
What interests me  is why did he change that abruptly. There should be some reason for the sudden change.

what a strange romance it was funny being just as confused as all the crazy amount of characters were at the same time  (cast has like 20characters in the op that's a shit ton)

very confused on how MC went from being a known stalker /harasser realizing how messed up he was  then the love interest is somehow mad that hes now given up plus hes indirectly messed up her school social life ,so i'm expecting more how we got there scenes to fill in the void 

it's like we've started the story from a reset of the MC endlessly trying to get the girl that it is so abnormal for him to not do anything anymore 


this truly is a summer quality anime

I love the art style and how full this episode felt. It's a breath of fresh air when an anime doesn't try to pad out a story more than it needs to. I'm looking forward to what happens next!

As a reader of both the LN and WN versions, I'm feeling upset a little bit, they cut so many scenes.

But I still enjoy the anime version. Because they're telling the story with different approach to the audience.

I loved it because I love these kind of animes I mean both the MCs have feeling for each other but our main mc doesn't feel like he is worthy of her or something like that (Your lie in April lore but without that much emotions) . 2ndly the osts and art and animations are pretty good too . I was pretty unsure about the harem tag too but if it isn't harem then it has everything which I love in rom coms

Reality stinks sometimes. For instance, pursuing your first love over and over despite getting rejected. Some would rather keep trying, or some could just give up and move on.

its not harem. It looks like one but isn't. They instantly add that tag when there are more than 2 girls on screen at any given time.
