| I really frickin' hate Mami... what a two faced bitch! It's so frustrating that Kazuya can't see what she's doing because she isn't be very subtle! I feel sorry for Mizuhara in all this because she's just a really kind girl who keeps helping Kazuya out of potentially pitiful and embarrassing situations but he takes advantage of it every single time. |
 |
| Another anime that could've been good but suffers from overly dumb MC syndrome =( |
 "Only one with the courage to shoulder the burden of their own fate can be called a hero.." |
| When writing this review I thought about doing a technical analysis, but this anime is so good, it is so wonderful, that I feel like talking more than that would be unnecessary. |
 |
on 
| The main issue currently in this anime isn't Chizuru or Mami but definitely this meh MC... I mean, if at least he had 13 yo I could understand a part of this stupidity.. I understand he's still in love with his Ex-Girlfriend and we can't control our feeling however what's the point with all those lies and useless reactions. This is what bother me the most. Both Chizu and Mami playing perfectly their role, but really, grow up and go forward man |
 |
| If there's anything clear from this episode, it's that Chizuru is far too good for Kazuya. Chizuru is gorgeous in her swimsuit, she's probably going to be one of the main reasons I watch this. |
 |
| I'm sorry but Kazuya is the biggest bitch on the planet if not in all of harem slice of life anime. Like honestly, he is the perfect simp god for all other simps. Then we got this ol thot ass, yandere ass Mami Chan coming in with that fake ass persoinality! Lmao honestly Chizuru is the only real MVP in this show at the moment |
| Ok so are we cancelling Mami-san yet? She's a rental girlfriend but bruh, this MC, BRUH. smh.... Also, loved the ED. Kanojo and ENS both did some retro ED's this season and I love them. With that being said, I thought Peter Grill was a simp but at least he can handle the situation. Said it best this episode, "Virgin's gonna virgin". Still a 9/10 anime because of Mizuhara being best girl in every way possible. |
 |
| Lot of kazuya hate in the discussion as expected, but there were points in the episode where he acknowledges that his actions are scummy and wants to make a change, but he can't translate them into actual actions, which bring along all the lies and uncomfortable actions. If the creators behind the story know what they are doing, that area of his mindset will be a subject of growth, which will feel like a bigger pay off if the MC starts off at a really low point in comparison. Also, is no one gonna talk about how the new ED's just a big metaphor of masturbating lol |

snowykevin said: This shit is getting harder and harder to watch by the episode, Kazu is legit so spineless and Mami is the definition of toxic and I don’t even understand her motives. She breaks up with him but she is getting mad when he gets a new girlfriend? this is just laughable. Mami has a god complex so her ego is hurt a lot by Kazuya getting another "girlfriend" so fast. She is a total psycho if you haven't noticed it yet xd. |
| am i the only one here who hate the MC too much? i mean how stupid and hopeless can anyone be? |
 |
| Damn, people are getting so salty over this show. xD |

| Set SCE to AUX |
| Obviously a lie about trusting kazuya. Everything about him is just beta male written all over. It doesn't matter how this ends. We just all know kazuya is a beta and the girls are the only ones actually controlling the outcome. lolz |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| This dude has reached Shinji levels of dis likability... |
| Pretty alright episode, nothing too note worthy really happened. I would totally roundhouse kick Kazuya if given the chance to lol. |
 |
| I wish Mami was the rental girlfriend. She'd definitely milk him dry and leave him dying on a street. |
 |
| Yay, wet got a beach episode! Chizuru is so tsun-tsun when it comes to Kazuya, now she is on the trip with him for free, good job Kazuya! Mami-chan is shitposting on Twitter over Kazuya's relationship and trying to break them off. Finally, Mami went for the kiss and on top of that Kazuya didn't resist it, let's see how he will deal with Mami and Chizuru next week. |
| I wonder how long it will take for this guy to realise dont want anything from him. I mean she was the one, who broke up lol |

Yeah, I haven't read the manga either but I've heard similar things, so if that's true, then that really sucks because there's a lot of potential for some good character development. Maybe the mangaka is trying to prolong the series idk Spaceship said: plz_nofindme said: Lot of kazuya hate in the discussion as expected, but there were points in the episode where he acknowledges that his actions are scummy and wants to make a change, but he can't translate them into actual actions, which bring along all the lies and uncomfortable actions. ^That's ONLY thing I give him ANY credit for: He admitted the fact that he was a total creep and loser twice in the episode. Yeah, but he does mention how he wants to set things right by breaking up with chizuru and correcting the lies he told the people around him (not just in this episode, but was also a thing last episode if I remember correctly). Of course, no merit is given to these thoughts as not only does he not go through with it, but he somehow makes the situation worse with more lies and just being a sleaze in the process. Also, it doesn't help that the majority of his motive for breaking up with chizuru shown in this episode was so he could hook up with mami again, making his act of wanting to fix the situation seem misguided. Despite all of this, the first step of fixing a problem and becoming a better person is recognizing you have a problem, which we know the MC is aware of, so we can only hope he continues to follow the right path of fixing himself. |
| Yeah, even I that was a bit defensive of the MC in the first episode can't defend him now. The guy is just way too horny. But I feel like the author is what it makes it worse. He is the one that love putting those coincidental scenarios so the plot doesn't really progress and the characters don't develop much. This ending indicates something will actually change, but I'm not that hopeful |
 |
| I wasn't expecting a beach episode this early, but at least we got to see Mizuhara in a swimsuit. Mami continues to be toxic with Kazuya and doesn't realize this because he a long lost puppy trying to get her approval. It's obvious that Mami is tying to drive a wedge between Kazuya and she's being a straight savage at it. I use to hate the MC, but now I just get a kick out of him simping and failing in the process. So, I can point and laugh at his punk ass. |
 |
| Mami is the worst! Don't like her one bit. Her aura is so malicious it's scary ._. Can't wait for the day when someone discovers her true nature. Even so, nice episode! I am rooting for Chizuru to win over Kazuya's heart >.< It hurts seeing Kazuya falling again for his ex and soon getting heartbroken for a second time. Ouch! He seriously needs to wake up and forget Mami. He doen't deserve to be with that trash! |
 [*]My Completed List [*]♪Listen ► [/list][/left] |
| its hard for me to admit that mami is seriously hot, even though shes an actual manipulative cow personality-wise |
| alright,the protagonist is annoying,trash,pathetic and really naive. this is annoying. |
 |
| i've given up on Kazuya hes simply scum and there an't no hiding it it's good that he at least is aware of those shitty aspects of himself but i doubt this will be written in a way that shows him grow from being the lowest of the low so i just try and enjoy seeing him get shit for being awful . Mami right now is just a manipulative embodiment of jealousy but i don't get tired of seeing her darkness leak out(her poor friends having to take the blunt of it sometimes). so very conflicted on this show after seeing the mangaka's studio and his workforce and how nice they all seem but when i think of this work i'm like how yall make this?? lol it's like i'm a masochist for enjoying and hating this |
 |
| It was a nice episode. Can't wait to see the next one. Wonder if the scene where gets adapted there, or in the next one. |
 |
| I not sure about this show anymore. I liked the first episode but that it so far. I like Chizuru I get Mami is meant to be this toxic hate person But Kazuya is just the worst. He not just a awkward guy but a straight up scumbag of a person. I just Hate this character. Also the show fails at being funny I think its trying to do. |
| It's rough watching this man letting himself get played by Mami lol |

This is not a low point it his actions that a causing this issues in the first place. He just dragging Chizuru along like how Mami is trying to drag him along. It not him being awkward but him being scum. |
| Idk, this anime is good and bad at the same time. The scene where the group was at the table made it really hard for me to watch. Like, why does the MC go out of his way to come up with "lies" for simple questions that Chizuru could answer? She probably has experience with these types of situations, but yet again, the MC goes out of his way to say some B.S. Like, I sympathize with him to a certain degree, but dang, this guy is the type of virgin that all virgins should not strive for. Like, dude didn't even use incognito mode when searching for "How to get back together with ex". Anyways, Mami, she is toxic, but she cute af, ngl. I do wonder, what is her motive? Also, when are the other side characters gonna appear? What about the group of friends in today's episode? Definitely will stick around, but MC is making me lose my brain cells. |

| My boys, say it with me... "Mami-chan, From the streets, did she emerge, and to the streets, she will return. And I say unto you, she is for the streets. So be not weary, when she must return from whence she came.”(THOTLATIONS: The Lost book of Ghetto Philosophers 14:28). amen🙏 |
Chizuru and Mami are clearly opposite. Chizuru is so kind and intelligent, like an angel sent by the heaven. On the other hand, Mami is so selfish, mannipulator b!tch, rotten to the core. Mami is so disgusting. |
| Man, I love Chizuru so much wearing a swimsuit, she's just perfect. BEST GIRL OF THE SEASON I hope she ends up with Kazuya :D  |
