| Not even sure how to feel, I really enjoyed Kuzu no Honkai back when it aired and the romantic drama vibes of this one reminded me to it at first, but after that it just got more and more boring and frustrating, open ending was expected but still disappointing anyways. I think I will give it a 4/10, I think I will forget about this anime really soon tbh. |
 |
| i loved every character in this anime, i feel so bad for Nisaki lol |
   |
| I really like the open-ness of this ending, I was expecting Neji to pick one of them and the other being left heartbroken but this ending leaves us on a lot more of a positive note. I really like the idea that Neji has decided to say "fuck you" to the system and love both Ririna and Misaki, meaning the 3 of them can stay together. I get that people are upset because its like a harem ending or they don't like that it is open ended but throughout the show I was just looking forward to seeing how the story went and I'm glad that it left us on a positive note with all 3 of them happy and together. I think my only flaw I had is that we didn't really get any revelation for Motoi Yajima but I imagine the writer decided to focus more of that in the manga and keep the focus on Neji, Misaki and Ririna in the anime. It's sad to see this end as this was my first ever seasonal anime I started watching but I'm happy with the ending, solid 8/10 in my opinion! Added Note: Holy shit could you imagine if they did a season 2 of this and completely flipped the genres and turned it into a Harem, Comedy, Romance show. To be honest I'd probably watch that haha |

| An open end and nothing gets resolved. I really hope that they make a second season to get a proper ending (if the manga ended until then). A OVA about Yajima would be great to see his past like in the manga. In contrast to the manga the anime made an original ending. I liked that Yukari did not choose one of the girls at this point. |
| So they still don't know what's love and what's a lie. |
 |
| Well uhh... okay? I really like how they adapted ch 114-118 But I do wish the anime did an ending of its own (as in, different from the manga but not a effin open ending) |
 |
| Eh, the ending doesn't sit well with me. It was weird, open ending which sucks but I guess they couldn't conclude it any better. It started of really well but became a bit irritating throughout it's run. Still decent 6/10 |
 |
| I usually don't like open endings, but I'm really happy with how the one in this show was done. Even if Ririna and Neji don't become a pair, their moments together in the first half provided the perfect closure for them. Though, now I'm more curious than ever about Misaki's secret. I guess we'll have to hope for a second season, or just read the manga. Episode: 5/5 Show: 8/10 |
| Yeah, so this shitfest will continue for god knows how long because they need to sell the manga and stall it for as long as possible. Fuck this show. Waste of time. |
 |
| The ending was kinda expected and a whole lot of "meh"! You know what would have been interesting, if both the girls were bisexual! :P |
| Sooo in the end nothing fucking happened. Same as almost the entire anime for that matter. What a snoozefest I'm struggling to think what the actual point of this anime was. If you want to see the whole government-assigned perfect marriages thingy at work, just go read the manga Sore wa Totsuzen, Unmei no Aite ga instead; it does everything Koi to Uso potentially could have done several times over in just four volumes. This anime on the other hand was just stalling all the way to the end whilst repeating the phrases "What is love?" and "What is a lie?" over and over Very mediocre |
  |
| So , no season 2 :)? just OVA's ? Season 2 for that won't be good , it will get a 6/10 on MAL |
| Signature removed. Please have a positive iq. |
| Did they just gave us the pussy way out? For fuck sake Yukari, you had one job! |
| "We could make the world better, but it's easier to just shut our eyes." ~Blackwall |
| i liked the show alot, but this last few episodes, i could have a 24 episodes instead then.. -_- i expected more of this to be honest., and this ending lanced it down to 6.8.. THE END |
| cause MAL is doing there job for once. |
| Nisaka is the greatest best friend that anybody can ask for. I hope for him to get a happy ending too and for him to no longer have to suffer in silence. I love both girls (unlike most love triangles in anime), but I hope Ririna pulls through in the end. Misaki is absolutely incredible too though. I might have to start this manga. |
| This was complete waste of time, typical solution thats to say the bland mc chooses no one. Not like it would have made any difference though, show started out interesting, but after the first half the show ran out of ideas, and the whole thing was nothing other than pure typical filler with the speed of snail. Also Misaki had no interaction with the MC we only told they exchanged some pencil or what and since then they are in madly love SO FAKE and UNREAL, therefore I didnt feel any kind of love triangle. Just going through the same motions that we have seen so many times in same kind of stories. So the verdict is 4/10,never want to hear about this show. In nutshell Anime original harem ending, mc couldnt decide, story went zero after 6 episode, the rest are 6 episode filler with fake drama and utter lack of development. |
| This is probably the only time where I want a harem-ish type of end lol God I hate this damn system fucking up these people's lives Anyway, overall I loved this series and unfortunately I doubt we'll get a S2 anytime soon since we are really close to the manga now |
| I feel like the premise was pretty interesting, the characters were fun but nothing really developed. The plot kept going on circles, nothing is resolved, the harem situation keeps getting more weird etc. Still enjoyable, especially the first half. 7/10 for me, even though I will probably read the manga for Nisaka (aka the most intriguing character) since the triangle is pretty cliche. |
| So, we got an inconclusive ending and Nisaka ends forever alone. Oh, well. |
 |
| So they took the safe route with an open ending. I guess it makes sense, but it's disappointing that we came all this way and he didn't choose either of the girls. Everyone is happy though, so there's that I guess? Well, except for Nisaka, I feel bad for him. Overall the show had a good premise but the way it was executed, coupled with an ending with no payoff, kept it from realizing the potential that it seemed to have. This kind of felt like a waste of time tbh......5/10. HaXXspetten said: I'm struggling to think what the actual point of this anime was. The point: Don't give your crush half of your eraser, otherwise you'll be caught in a deep shitstorm of confusing love. Lol |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| i would have given a 6/10 but after that ending......... 5/10 at least the opening is great and catchy, best thing to come from the show |
 |
| Literally waste of time. I sat through all that just to have this shitty ass open ending. GG. 5/10. |
| Rip Nisaka x Nejima hype train lol Actually does anyone who's read the manga know if there is even any development later on? We literally get a curveball kiss, which could've created some sort of weird next generation love triangle (love rectangle?) but instead we just get nothing Other than that this episode seems like it will be unlikely for s2 although if there was, I'd hope they would go for a more dramatic route. Overall not a bad show, debating between 6 or 7 but I'll just give it a 7 for the bantz |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| geeeeeez!!!!!!!! am so mad at this ending... to think I believed this show was going to be a beautiful love story like just a few I've had the chance to watch....I still remember the goosebumps I got with the 1st episodes however... last episodes tho, last episodes proved me so wrong... just like someone said... misaki did have 0 character development at all!! the hell was this?? why did they go with a half-assed ending like this.. i know we couldn;t expect much with how the previous episodes had turned out.. but this??? geeez the main character even decided it was fine not to choose 1 of them but have them both... if they stick to that.. hell i wouild like to see how much this "loving" ending lasts.. this anime had the potential to be a lot more... not this?? geez i simply can't get along with this >< |
 |
| The hate for the ending is unwarranted. At this point in the manga, Nejima has not picked either girl. This ending was to be expected and they couldn't have done any better. Overall good ending, but the show could of been adopted better. If no sequel, then it's disappointing. |

| After the start of the second part I started to receive Harem ending vibes that were growing and I almost scream "SON OF A $%&# ARE THEY REALLY DOING THIS?" when Nejima entered the church. Then we got an open ending, that is kinda BS, but better than an Harem ending... a shame given that the show had some fresh ideas... |

| Damn, I'm glad Neji cares more about Ririna and Misaki than many of the people here do. This is one of the few times that an open ending made sense. He was put in a very complicated situation, and it would've been too soon for him to make a choice now. |
| I suppose it was rather a given that at this point it was gonna be an open ending. Ririna is such a sweetie. <3 Screw Yukari for putting in her a position where she has to cry and attempt to sacrifice herself because he can't get his feelings straight. Yukari and Ririna's kiss was nice. Soundtrack was excellent this episode as well especially during the kiss scene and the final scene with the girls who looked stunning in their bridal attire. Overall, I thought the series started out pretty good. Unfortunately the show never really went anywhere and didn't reach anywhere close to something even remotely conclusive. While I really do like Misaki, it sucks that she can't be decisive about her feelings and it's ironic that Ririna is the most clear headed and proactive character in the series. In all honesty, I don't think I would've liked the series as much as I did if it weren't for her. I can safely say that she carried the series for me. Her development with Yukari was the only thing remotely linked to progression and were definitely my favorite parts of the series. I said it last episode but I find it extremely ironic that Yukari who is made out to be a nice guy is technically unfaithful to both the girls who love him and he jumps from one to other all the time because of his indecisivness. Not really a trait of a nice guy if you ask me. The soundtrack of the series was fantastic, huge points for that. 7/10, I don't know if we'll get a 2nd season but if we do I hope it can at least be more conclusive. It just sucks to see both the girls suffer with their feelings. |
 |
| To air this with 12 episodes pretty much ruined the show in the end. I did enjoy the drama and I liked the direction for the most part. Again, it's left so unfinished it's painful. |
| That was nothing... just like the manga. I was hoping for a better and more conclusive (anime original) ending, but I guess not. 4/10 |
 We ultimately fear what spawns from within us ~Shinsekai yori Music is freedom. ~Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso |
| This last episode was a disappointment. I really enjoy the premise of the story and think it has a lot of room for growth but the execution just wasn't there. There were a few shining moments here and there throughout the eps but overall, it needs more work. I started the manga to wash the bad taste of the last ep out and I am still unsatisfied with what I'm seeing, but it's a little better. |

| I liked the ending, it was a fun episode and well worked out in aesthetic, the two were very beautiful. However they sinned to leave the open ending overal: 6/10  |

| Oh my god, this ending has me so mad. I have wasted what, twelve weeks of my life watching this show and hoping for Nejima to choose one of the girls. What do we get? HE PICKS THEM BOTH. Lol I snorted when I saw that. What a horrible way to end the show. I lowered my rating by like three points after I saw that. I saw in a comment above how they should make 3 OVAs with 3 possible routes including Misaki, Lilina, and Nisaka. This would be so much better than this stupid harem ending they threw at us. I'm really disappointed because I really liked this show, too. Why couldn't they just stick to the manga and make a season two? Overall, it was an incredibly underwhelming and highly predictable ending, and I am S T I L L rooting for Nisaka until the end :,)))))) idc if there's no season two. he deserves happiness ok |
| The situation is like this: "Who do you like better, Mom or Dad?" Well then, be a rich man and make them both happy in your odd world, Yukari. |
| Oh well. I wish they wouldn't adapt manga's to anime's if there is no clear ending. 7/10. Disappointed. |
| so...it was an alright ending from a story perspective centered around this ideology about love...BUT I HATE open ending where the question of who will he choose in the end is left unresolved! Kuzu no Honkai is an example of an anime that is an exception as they did a great job with an open unresolved ending from a character point of view as well as from the story perspective...BUT this ending wasn't set up with the same type of story or characters that would lead us as viewers to believe this open ending to be within the realm of the characters personalities I thought the overall story and characters were alright...I wish we could have seen more on Nisaka and his true feelings which they kinda just slapped in this episode all half-assed...and they could have done more with the side characters like the agents overseeing the case that had a similar story to Neji and Misaki Overall this is just a fine anime that was an enjoyable watch but won't leave much of a lasting impression 6/10 |
| I shall rule over the realms of anime and manga! Mwahhahahahaha!!! |
| Me when I invest 12 episodes of time watching an anime that is only half-decent at most, only to get a shitty cop-out ending: |
~my list
| I really need to stop falling into the preseason hype. I didn't expect anything and still I was let down. Huge waste of time, wish I'd never started this. 4/10 |
 |
| Well nothing was accomplished and in the end Nisaka got the bad end. At least Nejima gets 2 beautiful girls by his side so it's not too bad. Sure he couldn't decide on who to choose but oh well. I was expecting a better ending tbh even if they went with an anime original or whatever. Felt rather basic imo. I still prefer Ririna so it's cool she some good development. 7/10. |
