There were a lot of manga and anime dealing with love triangle involving twins. From the perspective of the serious tone of the show, Touch would be cited that has similar settings.

Well, they've hooked me. I'm glad it's serious. Hopefully main guy has some depth and agency of his own.

I know it won't happen, but I can't help but think that these are the exact circumstances under which a harem ending makes the most sense.

This was a very sudden break up and kinda silly. I wonder if Jun actually liked Rumi all this time, but didn't know how to approach her or felt really awkward, so he turned to mostly talking to Naori as a 'bro'.

One thing is clear, is that his feeling weren't considered at all here :/ And now if he were to start dating Naori, it wouldn't look all that good either, for Naori too. Quite a dick move from Rumi, tbh, as if she kindly stepped down to allow her sister have the guy, like he's some piece of cake or something but now with a 'leftover' connotation.

This looks pretty heavy and promising
- Thank god it wasn’t incest shit, I was really expecting it from the title
- I really love the dynamic between the Smart one and Jun. I’ll root for her
- The sisters are so considerate too each other, so sweet
- Poor Jun, at least tell him why, jeez.

From the first episode, let's not say that the idea of ​​the anime is confusing. I know that when it comes to comedy, we have something funny, but I only saw regrets, frustrations and unpleasant memories. And there are 11 more episodes, damn it does he do in the others? Do the boys start changing like socks, does our boy start going to the gym or does he become a negative character becoming cool and popular?
Their love story, I don't know if it lasts more than 2 minutes. There were: Two kissing scenes, meetings all quickly before

What a fuckin' unique crap plot we've here. Feel very sad for Jun. Dude didn't even do anythin' to deserve that. The guyz always gets their heart shattered for only the stupidness and asshole type behavior of the girls. Fuck it man. If ya don't wanna stay by his side forever then don't start datin' to begin with sigh.

I don't know how Naori was feeling when Rumi was dating Jun and going out with him every other day, but I feel really bad for Jun after such half-hearted dump... No matter how bad she may feel about going out with her sister's love interest she had no right to dump him in such a way... I really hate her... I don't know how things are going to turn out between them going forward but I hope Jun gets to know the reason why she dumped him...

Did anyone else notice the implied s*x or was that just me.

This was a pretty interesting albeit slightly cliche opening.

Girl confesses to guy knowing sister also likes the guy.
They go out.
Girl realizes that would make sister sad so she breaks up with the guy.

Guy: WTF?!

Looking forward to what happens next.

Don't know why people give it such a low score, it happens sometimes.

Also the OP/ED are nice

That was a very interesting first episode, I thought this would be a lighthearted romcom, I guess we getting some drama.
I really like the way they showed both povs of the twins. First look from the character design/style I thought the gyaru-looking one would be dumb and sporty type, surprised that she's the smarter one.
Feels bad for our Male MC, he got toyed just like that. I hope we get to see his side next episode.

This really made me tear up. Im excited for more.

What on earth?

The guy did not deserved that at all.

She just wanted to "make memories"?!

She broke up out of guilt for trying to monopolize the guy?

Why do guys always get their hearts, not just broken, but absolutely stomped on in anime?

The guy couldn't even concentrate on reading after, really cruel.

Some other girl is going to steal him away from them, if this keeps up.
@ejleon she broke out with him becouse she felt bad for her sister who was also in love with him she even said it near the end of her point of view

This is the first time in my memory that an anime character has tried to humiliate another using Lord of the Flies. And yes, once again they refer to De Sade. Hipsters reading De Sade is this some kind of local meme in Japan?

@CHT13 Makes sense. But I also think she couldn't handle the pressure because of her guilt towards her sister.
@RobertBobert yes she even said this was because of guilt toward her sister at the end of her point of view

I’m calling her selfish because she broke up with him. Knowing how much in common her sister has with him and is a better fit with him, which she says so herself in the episode, makes her actions terrible for not staying with him. I have no problem with her being a bit selfish and beating her sister to the punch but she shouldn’t have done so just to break up with him. If she truly cared for her sister’s feelings she wouldn’t have asked him out in the first place. So as the season goes on we’ll get a clearer picture as to why she did what she did.

Ah, I see ^^ I still don't share your opinion on this fully, but I get and respect your reasoning and pov ^^

I’m just guessing here but I think she broke up with him because she figures her sister will end up with him eventually and since she’s in love with him she’ll have less regrets knowing that she did have that time together and the memories of being with him even if it was just for a short time.
@CHT13 actually at the end of her point of view she said it was because of ger guilt towards her sister

Seems pretty heavy so for making me wonder where this is going.
Is it going to be light hearted or a heavy drama.
Well it seems both sisters care to much about each other to take the male lead as their boyfriend long term.
The question is will the both go wor him will one end up with him or will neither of the two end up with him.
@Aversa I feel the same exact way. The tag says comedy, but this felt a lot more like drama, which I don't mind at all, but I wonder too if it's gonna be light hearted or heavy drama. I honestly wouldn't mind if it stayed this mature until the end

@Elior21 I heard that, but I just don't get. The older sister was in love with him too, so she made the first move, nothing wrong with that. However, the younger sister said she wasn't going to ask him out, to keep the situation between them the same. Which means the older sister broke up with him for no reason, she did not need to feel bad. Now neither one of the sisters are going to be with him. And like I said, if that is the case, some other girl is going to ask him out and take him from them.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

The way they placed a lot (their story of how they met all the way to middle school +love story of both twins) into one episode without making it feel rushed it’s just magnificent I loved it. It felt like a short film and like a movie at the same time. I felt attached to the characters very quickly. I loved how they explained both stories, if it wasn’t for that I’m pretty sure many people wouldn’t had liked it. It had ups and downs.

I thought it was gonna end with Ryuumi dating Jun, I was happy “man that was a great movie 🥲🥹) but then I remembered it’s a series”

What the bleep is wrong with Rumi?!!!! Why after going out with the guy & actually having a good time together would she break his heart like so? If you were about to be this considerate to your sister, then she probably shouldn't have confessed her feelings to begin with. Terrible, TERRIBLE behaviour.

I was not expecting much from this show, but after watching I realized how thoroughly impressed I was. Fantastic pacing, great OST, great pacing and speedy developments; I actually felt like the episodes were longer than the typical 23 minutes all the while being super engaged. This was an excellently produced episode so kudos to the team. I will certainly be adding this show to my already extensive seasonal watch list. (I am at 15 seasonal shows now.. I think that is incredible and unusual!)

It's sad because it's very interesting what they've written/produced. The only problem is what the first girl says, the one who asked the boy out. I don't get it, she thinks boys are an experiment to be tested and so when you're wronged you can just walk away, uhhh I'm the one who doesn't understand or maybe she doesn't understand what love is?

It's horrible because I actually get the impression that she's not taking the boy's feelings into consideration, "actually it was an object to test and it turns out I've tested it several times and now I'm not happy because I've grown tired of the object, so I'm throwing the object away"

Bruh, why did Rumi breakup with Jun? Because of the guilt? Its been a year of dating, get over it. And the fact that she said "Its not you, its me" I hate her already lmao. Naori is significantly prettier than Rumi. Its also messed up that Jun said yes to Rumi despite not talking to her for so long.
As a wise man once said, "No one hates anime more than anime fans"

I read some chapters of the manga, and now I have to re-experience this again.

Overall, a pretty meh episode. Rumi breaks up with Jun because she wants him to be with Naori, but honestly, I see this as a dumb decision. Absolute fumble.

EP 1

I'll be honest, I dont know much about this anime. I mean it has futago in the title, who knows though
I did vaguely hear a little

oh starting immediately with the op
honestly the op is ok

Its kinda awkward since they had to compress a lot to fit into one episode, and even then theres a LOT of talking, and skipping here and there. like rumi, naori, naori, rumi
Seems like more time was spent on rumi over naori, naori's section is way shorter?

Yeah uh this is definitely one of those first ep syndrome
Actually rumi had about 12-13 mins out of 20-21 mins, while naori had the rest, so its not as lopsided as i thought
There really isnt much i can say about this ep due to the way they left things off.
It really feels like they had to leave off halfway through a 30-40 min ep.
Like rumi, naori, I'm not even quite sure what to say so far. Both of them definitely seem something.
And mr mc, not even sure if we can call him that since the ep is entirely from the perspective of the twins so far, we barely even know him.

Honestly like anything could happen. The potential complexity and otherwise is just hmm

Naori does sound vaguely familliar I'm not sure. The op/ed is uhh huh. Neither are bad, the ed is kinda plain, and I already forgor the op, have to see.

EDIT: Speaking of, ep 1 had both the op and ed. I guess they just wanted to end on a cliffhang and didnt need anything else

I hate love triangles, nay despise them with every fiber of my being, this is def a love triangle series, trust me that male friend there 16:31 will soon get in on this too, but as far as love triangles go, this ones pretty alright, it's well written too, sure it's a dumb conflict, but even adults struggle with dumb conflicts like this all the time so I feel their pain, not sure if I'm in for the long haul tho

The guy is a robot that functions with an I.A. His reactions were so awkward for a child that it must be an android or an adult reincarnated. Also why suddenly he stopped wearing glasses, did he took laser surgery or pupillents?

At first glance, I can already tell I won't be able to like Ruri.

And you know what, yes, I dislike her. What a fucking indecisive woman. Played the hearts of her sister and Jun. Just think about your own happiness all the way until the end. What she just did is she threw everyone out of the loop and now acting she did a right thing. What a bitch.

Finally got around to checking this one out, October is reserved for horror goodness so it had to wait till now lol. And this one was very nearly on my list for Summer 2024, it actually was on it during my initial picks, but after rearranging some stuff and making some final decisions, I took it off for another show. Summer this year was packed with romance shows as is, and as much as I would have liked to hit them all, I decided to take it off for a different genre of show to mix things up a bit, I was sad to do it but that’s what I decided, thankfully tho, just because I missed it as it aired doesn’t mean I can’t watch it at all lol, so here I am now.

And this was a nice start, first I want to mention how nice and unique the show looks, surprising for a studio making their first full work but I like seeing some different styles like this, hopefully ROLL2 makes more going forward. And the show itself is very interesting starting off, I like that we got introduced to these two sisters Rumi and Naori from their own perspectives on what played out with Jun, it was definitely a lot to take in and not your usual first episode, but I think it was a nice set up for what’s to come. I gotta say that while I think my preferred sister as of rn is Rumi, it hurt seeing her ruin what she had with Jun lol, I get why she did it but I really just feel bad for Jun, bro’s just super confused and understandably so, it makes me worried that he’s gonna get hurt more than either sister lol, but I’ll just have to wait and see what happens there, I can feel this is gonna be more dramatic at least.

And that’s a very nice Maaya Uchida OP, always love a song by her and this is another great one, ED by the VAs is also great, love the string arrangement version, almost makes me wish it’s the one we hear all the time but I am excited to hear the normal version too.
