Yeah, seems pretty generic to me. It's going to end up having the same executed characters and we could probably guess how it's gonna end in a mile away. Seems like a normal harem to me.

@gust11 Well, if nothing, that proves the team put quite a good amount of care to the fine details, and kept in touch with the author and the source material. That's definitely a plus.
Yup, props to them for that, although just from the OP I can't imagine that they'll get that far. Maybe they're already anticipating a season 2? I'd like to think that it's not just pure dedication and appreciation for the source material, I mean that's cool and all but I'd be sad to see them put in that extra effort, all for it to go by unnoticed by most anime-only viewers

I hate both main characters so much. One is a narcisstic asshole with no consideration for others and who can only think about his revenge and the other is a snobby stuck-up bully bitch. How are you supposed to care about the story if the main characters are that hateful? It's like they tried their best to make them as unlikable as possible.

For anyone who thinks this is a standard, stereotypical set of harem girls should wait for Yoshino and Neko backstory to be introduced. I think you'll be pleasently surprised.

Same here. I was really looking forward to this show, but it ended up being a major disappointment for me. Everything about this felt hallow and generic. Besides the unlikable characters, I had to pause at certain points to marvel at how bad the writing of this is. Has the writer ever heard of "show, don't tell", or that too many coincidences of people being in the same place at the same time gets old really quick? bleh. I can only hope that this is one of those shows that gets better as it goes on, or maybe one where it only has a weak first episode.

This is a pretty good episode. Pretty much what I expected of how it'll turn out, but it's still pretty good. I hate Aki and she is still piss me off with her bitchy personality like she did in the manga. Masamune isn't that much better but he's still entertaining to watch, unlike the bitchy Aki.

How is the main an asshole with no consideration for others?


How about the fact that he is a blackmailing asshole who genuinely believes he can get away with anything because of his looks and who literally treats others on the inside the way the lead female is treating them on the outside?
How about because he literally congratulated and was nice to the creepy dude who literally ASSAULTED A WOMAN?

I do not know what is more awful, his behavior or the fact that show might not be aware how awful that is. Because if the show was aware that both leads were just as bad it would be genuinely decent set up. If the show is NOT aware then eugh.

You are the dude who's always complaining about anything and everything in all the Fate/ threads. This is going to be so pointless, anyway here we go...

He's just narcissistic in a world that reassures him constantly that the more good looking you are the more advantage you have in life, how does that make him an asshole? Don't you have any defects? Are you perfect?

Leaving Aki aside because he hates her with all his heart and he sees her as her enemy...Who is he blackmailing? In what part of the episode did he treat bad others "on the inside"? In what part of the episode he had bad thoughts about anyone? Also, when did he congratulate the creepy dude who was truly sorry? He just told him he didn't give a shit anymore, and why would he? He.hates.Aki

Props for SilverLink so far, been awhile since I started the manga (which I did when I first heard the anime adaptation annouce, since the anime visuals caught my attention), so I dunno if they are following everything faithfully, but I was enjoying my time with the episode.

Aki is such a cute girl, really pretty too, also fatboy appearence on the OP...

Visuals are great IMO, silverlink been improving they quality with the passing of the years IMO, just look to Non Non Biyori (best BGs ever). Nice.

As for anime only viewers, dont take the plot too serious, there are no real morals to take from the series, but that doesnt mean it is shallow.

Hoping we will get a 2-cour, 1-cour wouldnt be able to adapt all the manga.

A nice 8 for this episode.

Nice try to slander and flamebait :^)

Bad shows are bad shows. Being critical and negative about badly written content is only normal. "You disliked something" is not an argument.

He's just narcissistic in a world that reassures him constantly that the more good looking you are the more advantage you have in life, how does that make him an asshole? Don't you have any defects? Are you perfect?

Because that assumption by itself is misogynistic because it assumes all the females are fickle enough to be "charmed" by nothing but good looks of a dominant male. That they "turn off their brains" around a pretty dude and abandon all reason just because he's pretty.

So either:
- The MC is an asshole who has disgustingly low opinion about women
OR
- The Show narrative has disgustingly low opinion about women.

So far I am willing to hope for the former rather than latter.

Leaving Aki aside because he hates her with all his heart and he sees her as her enemy...Who is he blackmailing?

He is planning to clearly blackmail Aki. Two wrongs don't make it right. Just because someone is asshole does not instantly make them deserving of blackmail.
One character trying to blackmail an asshole character does not make the character into good guy. It simply makes both characters into assholes.

In what part of the episode did he treat bad others "on the inside"? In what part of the episode he had bad thoughts about anyone?

Tennis court scene where he(and the show) treat the female characters as vain and biased solely on how the person looks? I mean his thoughts there are literally that of a condescending sexist ass - "all females are the same" and "being pretty gives me carte blanche" and stuff.

The class scene where he literally snarks on the inside on how he can get away with anything even sleeping in class because he is "hot"?

Multiple times he is shown manipulating other girls via putting on a nice guy act?


Also, when did he congratulate the creepy dude who was truly sorry? He just told him he didn't give a shit anymore, and why would he? He.hates.Aki

Being sorry does not excuse an intentional assault of a woman.
Aki being a bad person does not mean she "deserves" to be assaulted.
The dude can claim he is sorry all he wants, he still acted like an abusive piece of shit who can't take no for an answer and he can't be off the hook unless he apologizes to her or gets to pay for his actions. The MC being okay with that highlights how his behavior in the assault scene was just an act. Not caring that someone assaulted a woman DOES make one an asshole. That or the show did legit imply that Aki somehow "deserved" getting assaulted which is N O P E.

The only real difference between Aki and the MC is that MC pretends to be nice towards others while Aki literally does not give a shit what others think. Which arguably might paint the MC as even worse person becuase he hides his intentions while Aki is straightforward.

The episode sets up that the MC is:
- Vain and self centered(it literally opens with that as a comment from his sister).
- Focused on his looks
- Believes being pretty allows him to manipulate others and that all women will fall for that.
- Can hold a grudge for multiple years and be obsessed with it enough to formulate a revenge plan.
- Is willing to resort to blackmail.
- Is willing to hide his darker and assholeish nature behind the facade of Mr Prince.



Again if the show is aware that both protagonists are awful human beings it might be decent. But I hope for gods this does not veer towards the r/redpill propaganda level of ideas like some of the scenes in this episode did.

This has to be the least sympathetic MC couple I've seen on a SoL in a long time (heck, even School Days had slightly more likeable chars, at least at the beginning... and that's saying someting).

The girl is absolutely obnoxious, whatever kind of justification they may come up for her behavior will be hard pressed to do her justice.

The guy, frankly, is just as bad. I may understand why he behaves like he does, but his narcissistic personality is really grating.

In short, both chars feel so self-centered that you're left with a "why should I even care" feeling. I'm just undecided on whether I don't just care or whether I'm actively hoping something bad befalls them. And no, the guy who assaulted her was just as obnoxious, I can't rly get behind it despite her attitude.

Animation ~ pretty decent and beautiful
The mc is really cool and from the description I really expected to dislike him but not at all!
The Aki girl although she has something tsunderistic about herself it seems that she has her own secrets and own complexities and I'm pretty sure that we will get to discover them later..op was ~ good ed was ~ great! I'm dissapointed that there is no drama in the genres cuz I usually combine drama with romance but ..anyways looking forward to see more of this anime..its the first and the only anime I'm going to watch during the whole winter due to the exams...so let's see
btw the plot twist in the end with the "pig's foot note" was excellent!!
The guys who hate and flame about the mc need to understand that before watching an anime and hate should read a review or description first about what they're going to see..it was clear about the MC's narcissism. And the way the creators were trying to show that was in a funny and humorous way..they didn't try to show his personality with a hateful way

I think this will be the anime of the season I guess better than last season, Makabe reminds me of the MC of Charlotte anime they are really similar how they are proud of their hotness and always looking at their self in the mirror, the op was kinda boring the ending was better, It was really awkward that he was found out I didn't saw that coming I settled my self for his Big plan xD, I'll be looking forward for this anime it's pretty awesome.

Lol the premise is kind of interesting, it's pretty generic as far as setting and characters. The MC already got found out, but i'm hoping he finds some way to execute is plan properly.

Posted in another thread, but thought I'd share my thoughts here as well :)

I'm pretty sure the MC is going to b*tch out of his revenge plan and somehow fall in love with that Queen B*tch.

But wait there's more :)......

He's probably going to screw over at least one other girl that's kind, beautiful, and actually cares about him. And we'll see this amazing girl lonely, crying in the corner while we cringe at the fact the MC decided to date that arrogant b*tch no one likes. Well, at least this is how it goes most of the time. I'd be surprised as hell if this anime followed a different route.

See, I hate how anime with potential like these just end up following the sam old shitty cliche storyline. We don't know how its going to go, but I'm pretty sure I'm calling it right.

Starting out with a revenge plan and then falling for the girl is pretty predictable. There's also a high probability that the whole thing was just a miss understanding and she loved him from the start. But then she finds out about the revenge plan, and hates him for it. Soon the whole school knows his plans and hates him for it. The protag then has an internal struggle about his true feelings for the girl and confesses everything. Everyone forgives and forgets, and the two kiss. The End.
