OMG so many waifus! I love their character designs and their seiyus............many of my favorite seiyus.

The one I liked the most was Itsuki, I don't know, I liked her personality + Inori Minase <3. The second would be Yotsuba, genki + Ayane Sakura... more please! Finally Miku, she hasn't stood out much but I liked what I saw, I see potential and she has all my attention.

So yeah, great start, the genres, synopsis, the girls' designs and their seiyus made it one of the series I was most looking forward to this season and it has definitely exceeded my expectations. Looking forward to more!

Bland as fuck. Be it the character design that is really bland even if I don't compare to the manga, the animation is mediocre and direction is bland. This shouldn't have 7.80, it should have 7.30 at best. Only the manga should have it as the anime is a bust on those questions I mentioned before.

I've read the manga and dropped it after around 5 or 6 chapters. So I wasn't expecting anything from this series, story-wise. Just wanna say the animation quality of this adaptation is pretty...mediocre.


This manga is one of the best romance manga i've ever read and definitely the best harem manga. The girls have god tier character development level and as time goes by you can't even decide who is best girl. The authors are really trying their best to make it different from other harems and they have achieved that. They do things the way they are supposed to be done ( Like Nino's Case ) and it's absolutely not a first girl win manga. I understand that you dropped it early but i highly recommend it and i think you should give it a second chance.


I haven't read the manga, but the first episode was pretty much just ok in my opinion. I don't think it will change my mind on the fact that the best harem anime is the Monogatari series.
I also got the impression that is really clear who's going to win at the end.
Sorry if I wasn't clear, I'm from Spain and I'm still learning english.

Well, the first few ch of the manga are the worst imo even I dropped the manga because of this but it gets good later on.

Also, u can't say who's going to win for sure as the one who has read the manga.

I haven't dropped the anime, i thought it was worth giving it a chance, I also liked the MC, so I guess, I'll have to see where it goes.

Best romance manga is a stretch and quite the exaggeration, but to we do not need to compare this with monogatari since besides both series falling to harem they are remotely different from one another.
The great thing I have to say about this series is that it knows how to keep us readers/watchers guessing. It does the harem name justice unlike nisekoi. It lets its heroines shine and make a believable case for each one being the end girl.

Yeah, the harem is the official genre, but in the plot itself it is rather weakly expressed. Damn, at the time of 90% of the chapters left, only one of the sisters was in love with him.

Perso—oh wait, wrong harem anime.

But it really is like watching Yu, if he lacked the charisma and the natural ability to make friends. Must be the ahoge.

Pretty unusual to put the ending at the beginning with a wedding scene (even in the title), but I suppose it works when they all have identical faces so you don't know which one (because the unknown bride's hair is more of a wine-red/Maroon 5 maroon color which doesn't match any of the 5). At any rate, looks like it's the journey to the end that matters the most here.

It'll be fun seeing which one will win the the ring so to speak, even though it'd most likely going to be the first girl as it usually is in these types of series, though there are some exceptions to the norm. Excited to see more.

I don't think that you can call monogatari 100% harem cause araragi has a girlfriend from the 3rd or 4th episode. But yeah trust me you are gonna love this as the plot unfolds. In the start it's ok but as time goes by you are gonna fall for most of the girls unlike other harems.

This first episode wasn't too bad or anything, but something about it definitely felt off, and I'm not entirely sure why yet. Plot doesn't seem terrible (implausible for sure, but it can at least be entertaining) but it's just not grabbed me yet.

I also bet it's gonna take several episodes before I actually remember which sister is which without having to look.

Voice acting of the characters seem pretty fine to me, but yes the artstyle will obviously feel downgrade compared to the art of the manga, and the animation is pretty bland. Still a decent episode.

Interesting twist on the harem approach. Well we know that he does marry one of the five sisters but given they are quintuplets, the question is which one? We're obviously not gonna find that out this season since it's one cour and just looking up the manga, it's 70ish chapters so far and still ongoing. So basically this adaptation is gonna bait hard.
Don't believe the hype.

Being in Manga that's very questionable ATM.

Although if it's a typical harem yes she would win by default.
Tsundere character sure be loved.

But for me at least Miku,Ichika is godsent.


Satisfied with just Miku and Ichika

It was ok.

aside from

-the fact that they shoved down our throat what a smart loner our MC is
- that the imouto had to break the ice(as always)
- the lazy introduction scenes of the females and their personalities

Only "liking" the "onee-san" so far and everyone that knows me shouldn't be surprised about that. She's also voiced by Hanazawa.

Far from a good start, but there are aspects that seem promising and I might enjoy it once I'm warm with the cast.

I liked it. Main character so far looks good (especially thanks to Matsuoka's great performance), and the sisters look pretty hot. Hope it remains as fun as this episode.

Also, I'm the only one who confused the father of the main character for his older brother? He looks so young (and way hotter than MC himself, lmao).

Glad to see someone thought that, because I also felt the same about the father while reading the manga lol. Looking forward to how Fuutarou's no nonsense attitude will be reflected in the voice acting too.

Oooo this is my most awaiting this season I have read the manga first, so at least I know where this will going.

I know what it feels to have a private teacher that same class level as you are, very embarassing. It just like a group study but the smartest got paid.

Nice design. Very lovely for all of the girls. Nice to see Hanazawa Kana voicing for my favourite Ichika, fits her oneesan personality. Also the rest 4 got perfect seiyuu,too.

The ending is very very neat, answering all question about it. So for you who already read the manga, you know that there're some epilogue with future fuutarou's bride like what you have seen in the ending of this ep. There's a dialogue there, and here they choose to not using voice, just a text. So, fuutarou's bride is still a mystery. Hahaha, nice job Tezuka.

Now i know why they colored the other 4 hair beside Yotsuba more or less looks similar. The v.a's doesn't sound convincing though somehow. I can't explain but it sounds "fake" or more like not a good marriage between the character and the v.a to me.

Well I was about to discard it as another "HAREM" anime. But man the story, artwork are awesome especially the female MCs are just too cute. Each have an unique personality than the the other. So dealing with them won't be easy for the MC but will be fun for us. Can't wait for the next episode

I believe they're supposed to have the same red hair color but in anime you can't really put 5 really similar characters, they need to be made so the viewers can differentiate them but take my words with a grain of salt.

It's only 12 episodes, what did you expect? They always have to adjust pacing and cut scenes to get to a 'conclusion' for the anime.

I agree with you about wishing they left more intact, there is a lot more nuance shown by the characters in some of those exchanges. Unfortunately, there are very few shows that are basically 100% faithful to the source (FMA:Brotherhood being one of them).
