| It was okay..but still left me hanging... Nejima loves them both... Ririna isa a big fat liar, so as Takasaki but both love him..what the EF! oh another passionate kiss by Ririna & Nejima...but it was just practise....really!? is this open ended? or can have an S2!? 4/5. 8/10. |
 |
| The whole anime is a lie. Much time spent on waiting and watching and I got an ending like this? Pretty weak ending :( |
| I am mad, I thought he would make his choice...Ririna even gave him a idea of how he could cancel their marriage! If he really loved Misaki likes he claim he should not think twice! But no, he wants both! Damn guy...I just hope Ririna finds someone who can make her happy, she is so nice...and Misaki, I think she is sick or something... |
 |
| WOW that was awful or even average. I can't believe I had hopes for this anime and it turned out to be boring and the ending was just WTF. The MMC should of just picked 1 girl and not deciding and where is the EXPLAINATION of the lie to which she needs to hide between the pairs. Edit: What about the Nisaka guy kissing him at episode 3, this is also left unanswered and the guy and girl relationship seems like there is something going on. |

| I was waiting for Takasaki and Nisaka to get their matches for the entire series. |
 |
| Hm... the show gets pretty boring after the first half, specially when starts all that Romeu and Juliet (so cliche ><) On the contrary of many, I liked the idea of them 3 ending up together even though it's not official or declared, it feels like a mutual love between them - harem. 6/10 |

| Before starting Koi to Uso I was expecting that it'll be that kind of anime series that end with nothing. And what I got? Exactly, nothing. Through the whole series Yukari's behavior didn't bother me so much as in the final episodes. Anyway, we've got the introducion or I'd better say the animated manga advertisement. If we want to know how it end we must read manga or wait for 2nd season (which I doubt). 5/10 |
| This series made me go read the manga because I was really interested in the story... so I guess that a plus... so I'll be continuing the story... I'm giving it a 5/10 ... I did find myself liking the manga a lot more... |

| This anime legit needed the Harem Plan. |
 |
| What about Nisaka, Yuusuk ? Does he like Misaki or the MC Nejima? It is never clear ed in the anime. |
 |
| all of you are dumb for thinking the three of them ended up together! IT WAS JUST A PHOTOSHOOT!! sigh can't believe such an amazing anime is scored 6.96 just because of you dumb people not understanding the ending, the manga is still ongoing so how do you expect the last episode to give you a satisfying ending to all characters? smh. |
  |
| I really hate this main character, he only knows to be in doubt, only the nisaka to put something useful in his head... At the end he he realizes that he loves both of them and can't decide... Really... Man.....I prefer a final with a harem of the two than an open ending like that. opinion: he should date Misaki soon or end up alone at once :P |
| 『 』 |
| Really... a harem ending? 5/5 episode 7/10 series Best girl: Ririna  But what the... Ririna is like "I'm dumping you"... but then she's like "can I use your for kiss practice". OMG I didn't know how far they were gonna go right there! |
  |
| It literally states that they both ignore their love, because protecting Misaki is more important. So mad that he doesn’t just accept his full on love for Ririna 😡 |
on 
| Yukari, how come you couldn't see the best conclusion for all of these, it's polygamy. Just like what you did right now, you should marry both of them. Both of the girls said if they love each other, so, it will be a win-win condition to polygamy. |
 |
| Damn that anime original ending. This anime ended in the first half of this episode for me at the end of the night in the inn... what came after was just the delusions of staff who wanted a wishy-washy cop out harem ending that also probably lets them get away without a sequel later with what the manga has left to offer. I'd say a lot of it was adapted well enough from the manga, with special praise for the excellent voice acting; I could forgive some arc order swaps here and some filler skips there but that ending nearly ruined it all. While watching, I listed up to 10 changes the anime did, some of which I find hard to forgive... |
| The end of this... completely sucked. Honestly, I'm only giving this anime a 7 because of Nisaka. Too bad he didn't even get the proper closure he deserved. |
| Wow, are you all NORMIES or something? OF FUCKING COURSE he wouldn't choose someone now when the manga is still going. Seriously, most people here should already have more than enough experience with anime to know that a conclusive ending would not happen. Anyway, I'm giving this show a lowkey 6/10. |

| You are not your body, you are your brain, the "self" that emerges from within it. |
| Ehh? I thought there was still a mystery to solve? What's with the notices in the beginning and what's with Takasakis lie? And I don't really get the ending either like he doesn't even choose one he just goes the harem route? It's just like telling us oh yeah I'm going to date both until I realize who my real soul mate is. I mean that's some super dissapointing ending and I feel like a lot of the stuff they tried to explore just went nowhere and the anime ends nowhere, too. |
| The ending really killed the show for me. Ugh. |
| "Scientifically perfect match" is the biggest lie here. It takes two somewhat compatible persons and binds them together. Just see: 'scientifically proved' premise, heavy family and society pressure, government measures to prevent breaking — why you would need all that if match was really perfect? Just let destined people to meet and voila: they would be ever happy without any push. But this is not 'perfect match'. This is a system that works the same way as traditional arranged marriage. You are not destined to be together, you have to work it out and adapt to each other because you have no choice. It's a big government lie to increase birth rates. That is why I despise author greatly — he makes characters fight wrong enemy. System is wrong here. Screw it over. Make Nejima go main office and say — "Go to the hell with your notices, remake it and let us live our way". See the truth. |
| So...........threesome? Yay!!! |
| In the end it truly was Koi to Uso "claps" I approve of the polygamy ending or maybe misaki will cheat on her arranged husband and keep going out with yukari, 7.5/10 |
 |
| The open ending made this show feel like a waste of time for me. Just talking/talking/talking never finding out the secrets him never really pick either of them. |
| soooo... what's the point? no ending? disappointed It started with those mutual feelings between two teenagers, now it's somehow a harem ending... at this rate at least include niisaka! Poor guy, left alone in the closet :( |
   |
| Honestly, the anime did not meet my expectations, The main character was beta-kun and different aspects of the story remained unclear.The animation was good, but the shape of the head of the characters was like an egg and their eyes were huge!! i liked ending song and also OST was decent as expected from Yokoyama Masaru compositions (he worked on Kuzu no honkai and Shigatsu wa kimi no uso) |
 |
| I am quite sure it havent end for the manga. For anime overall the OST is quite great, I loved the Shoujo Art though the Genre on manga is implied to be Shounen lol. I wonder why alot of people bashed this objectively? If i was in Yukari place i would've done the same, If i choose different or the opposite things are the same because in every people all everything is wrong. Same apply to mal ratings, Everything is subjective when it comes to option. Though sadly nisaka havent got much screentime to confess his feeling. The whole story seems doesnt properly linking each other yet which i already mentioned it havent ended on source material. For the harem ending, i am not sure (or poligamy that is), Just assumption its kinda obvious that Misaki assigned husband would be Nisaka. Unless a new person pop out of nowhere and theres also Shuu,Kagetsu,and Motoi story havent properly covered. |
| Nejima is indecisive as f**k. The ending was also very rushed. |
 |
| This ending was the correct one. 6/10 |
 |
| Well it was okay. I don't mind the open ending that much and I would prefer a harem ending instead of picking one over the other. But I read that it is somewhere between Kuzu no Honkai and Nisekoi in terms of the plot. And after completing this show I feel the same way. The story wasn't that amazing. It has this absurd and ridiculous concept of the government deciding your life partner without your consent or choice that you can't reject without dire consequences. It's almost like dictatorship. In addition, there is a typical scenario of an indecisive beta protagonist who is unaware of his own feelings and two female protagonists who value each others feelings more than their own. But the show has a lot of physical interaction and secrets which I hope they uncover in S2. However, the show makes true love feel pointless because in the end you might just fall in love with some random stranger you are paired with against your will. I can only imagine the amount of unhappy couples this leads to. But the anime tries to justify this with scientific reasoning and testimonials of other characters. And it kind of seem like the story is heading that way even if Yukari says he loves them both. But I just hope it doesn't end up like Nisekoi manga did. |
I-JitsuOct 22, 2017 8:26 PM
| oh well, I smell an ending like this a mile ago. I feel like wasting my time watching this. Nejima come out his true feelings, but didn't say it out loud. basically, the three of them entered the state where they're all can't live without each other, because Nejima took this so long to decide. thanks to Nisaka that makes Nejima to move. please, no second season if only would bring me more feels train. and I wouldn't bother to read the manga, since it only bring me more feels train and hurt my heart. |
| Although the show got repetitive at times and didn't truly resolve the relationships I was engaged the entire time. And the art's great. I can't blame Yukari for falling for both of them. I mean he's still young and hardly even knows himself. Misaki kept saying that she "couldn't" but wouldn't reveal why. I thought maybe it had something to do with protecting Yuusuke but I guess not. The kissing scene with Ririna really was lovely (she just wanted to practice, right? And of course nice guy Yukari felt obliged to accommodate. |
| I'm not a fan of open endings like this, but from what I understand the manga is still going, so an original end might have been bad.....plus now there could be a season 2, and I'm all for it. (team Ririna(not often I change my mind mid anime for best girl)) 7/10 could be bumped up if there is a season 2. |
 |
| Hm. Idk, mang. The story concept is interesting and I feel like it had potential. But too much wishy-washy, back and forth scenarios, confusion, drama, never finding a proper solution and just how wrong the whole situation was in the first place-- :/ Both are good girls. I still don't know who to root for. Ehhhh. 5/10 for me. Not the greatest anime. I really liked Nisaka but felt too sorry for him :( he's always quietly being the good guy without getting what he deserves. Neji is a weak MC as well. I still liked his personality and I understand he doesn't want to hurt anyone, but still. Such a messy situation to be in :3 Mixed feelings about this anime, but overall sticking with my rating. |
| Terrible ending, ruined the series a little bit for me, it sucked, knowing it's anime original and he couldn't choose between one of them, afraid there may be heartbreak. His heart probably already knew who he's gonna choose aka Ririna, but he's still holding onto his crush that was Misaki. I've read chapter 116-124 as suggested, and the story of Yajima makes it even more apparent that Neji is going to choose his true love.. though who it is, remains the question. Also, both Misaki and Ririna are wasted on Neji, didn't like how Neji is such a beta cuck. Stop getting flustered over everything and be such beta when girls get mad at you, don't apologize immediately without knowing what you did wrong man, that's not even being kind anymore, that's just insincere. Really no clue what they see in this blockhead that's not even all that interesting, feel like he's a self-insert protagonist, meaning trash. Ending further enhances Neji's indecisiveness. OST is decent, gives off a "dangerous" vibe, but sometimes it's misplaced, sometimes it's overplayed. Overall positive. |

| I couldn't careless which girl Nejima's gonna pick, but I really feel bad for my boy Nisaka, the high school version of Mou Ten (Meng Tian). The main reason I watched this series till the end was just because of him. He deserves a better life. |

| Through tears and smiles, I loved the experiences this anime brought me. Getting to learn more about Ririna and Misaki, riding through their emotions and witnessing their strength to endure sacrificing one's self for the happiness of their loved ones was memorable. Due to my selfish desires I loved this ending. I don't wish to make a decision between the happiness of either of them. GenesisAria said: I'm not familiar with Polygamy but in my mind I regarded it with a sense of being unpure or loose, like "friends with benefits" or questionable "forced marriage" for the benefit of one. Entirely contrary to these believes, I would love to accept this anime as a bitter-sweet transition to a heartwarming glimpse of a situations where three or more people CAN love and accept each other in such a way. I believe a big part of society doesn't accept three way marriages and I think it's even illegal here. That mentality may be a part of why people in this thread feel unsatisfied without a clear side being chosen, but personally I've come to see their three way love as "pure", acceptable as an ending to stop their self-sacrificing ways and legal if they were to agree to it. Granted, I don't know how jealousy works in this kind of situation... But they could figure it out somehow.I stand by my original statement: they're more than capable of being a very stable and happy threesome because of mutual love and compersion. A certain 10/10 anime for causing so many emotions in me and opening my mind to a different kind of love. |
GenesisAria said: I stand by my original statement: they're more than capable of being a very stable and happy threesome because of mutual love and compersion. I totally agree with this, It's clear that Neji is in love with both of them and they both are extremely close friends and were willing to give him to the other so I think a relationship between all 3 of them could work out. Regardless of it's flaws it was likely the only way a happy ending could be achieved, if he had picked one of them then the other would have been left miserable. |
