Seriously? 7.25 and dropping every week? What the fuck is going on... this show is soon gonna hit the 6's before the season ends, putting it in the same trash ass shit garbage tier as many other legitimately trash ass shows that are genuinely terrible.

But unlike shows that are genuinely terrible, this show is actually fun and enjoyable...ironically even with SNAFU, SAO and Re Zero bashing heads every week, this show is the one many look forward to the most for some strange ass reason, you can tell by how many degenerate reaction channels react to it every week and the number of mash up videos that follow, so why dafuq does it keep getting trashed by 1's and dropping.

Probably because people see Kazuya as a simp and some of the indecisiveness that he shows early on, especially with Mami (I feel like there's more going on with her under the surface, but I digress). It has its dumber moments, but I (as someone who can't stand most harem anime) am enjoying the hell out of it so far.

I don't think that the show will crash too hard by the end of the season, and even if it does, there's some legitimately good stuff that is in that range still. I think it's at least more enjoyable and consistent than GOHS this season, which is saying quite a bit considering my expectations for both series. All I'm saying is thankfully it takes place with college students and not high school ones (that's a considerable plus for me since I'm in the same age group and have been attending college for 3 years, makes it easier to connect to them overall).

Lmao it's cuz people dislike the protagonist and find him to be a simp so much that they felt the need to rate it 2 or 3.

Maybe someone already read manga, I guess there's something unsatisfied about anime adaptation. Btw, about Kazuya I don't know I should hate him or not cause he's stupid or he got manipulate by Mami

Why this thread is created for a lot of seasonal animes? it doesn't matter what score people give in this shitty site, the ones who give scores and make reviews for unfinished animes are just dumb as fuck, you can't judge an entire anime before it's finished

I like the anime show far. Chizuru, the two grandmas, and now Yoshiaki (after the last episode). So far, I have it as 6/10 and to be honest, I don't see the score getting better any time soon. I mean, I could be wrong it would get a better score from me, but it could also go down. I think the determining factor is the relationship between Kazuya and his ex-girlfriend, Mami, and how that plays out. Those two are my biggest problems with the anime so far. The anime so reminds me of Nisekoi.

It's because the source material is an absolute clusterfuck. The male lead is close to the worst character ever with female characters (maybe except for Chizuru) being not much better. The studio it doing everything they can to make it at least slightly enjoyable and I appreciate them but as I mentioned, due to the source material being so bad - the ceiling is not very high. IMO this title is a misery and a cringe fiesta to watch except for 12 yo / super childish people.

Most fans generally don't like these type of romcoms and it shows, I mean just look at #9 and the manga itself is just slightly higher. I'll advise you not to care too much for scores and just enjoy what you like.

People just need to calm their shits down and wait. The MC has one of the biggest character formation on the later episodes or others say "redeeming arc". They can't just put a early With an early series of 4 episodes. Grow up

Why you care about the score? pls notice that most people are idiots on this planet with IQ lower than 90. They are sheep who rate things same as others do. You can look at Europe for example how they vote for leftist.
Protagonist is not important at all it can be any random guy, anime like that is about girls and story.
Maybe too many guys watch this anime and they wish to identify oneself with super cool person who they can't be in real world, but as Japanese culture is wise they go by route about making oneself better person, they give u bad protagonist and evolve him into someone better. Also - most viewers are kids who did not experience real life yet.

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I was really really looking forward to this show but after watching 3 episodes i felt like why the hell did i watch this. And also according to manga the story will continue as the same crap which is going on right now. I love Romance stories but this is something which i never want to see in Romance story, also i hate that MC. So basically aside from art/animation everything in this anime is crap for me so i dropped it. And i believe many of the people who dropped it has the same reason :P

Just read the manga, and to be honest tho, i find the story quite good if you read. Too bad for others who immediately dropped the anime soon just after watching 2 episodes. I recommend reading the manga.

I think it has to do with the show's progression. It's really slow but upon reading the manga, the MC is correctly portrayed as indecisive and always thinking with his dick. I wish they can capture his character development until the later chapters. It's not enough to have 13 episodes but since they hinted Sumi. Maybe 24-26 episodes?

I have read the manga. I'm literally caught up with it. Nowhere is there any sort of "redeeming arc" or "biggest character formation" anywhere present imo, he's literally almost the same person throughout with only a few decent moments here and there (the couples area convo with Sumi comes to mind)

Why do you even care about the ratings here. On a site where SAO 2 is rated below 7 along with all the other dumpster fires isn't a trustable site at all.

On the other hand, for this show I'm enjoying it at the times and the cringe moments get to me at times. Just hoping for some damn character development for the MC. If he doesn't get it then sorry I have to rate it low.

Based on the few min I watched from the first episode, this was more cringe than fucking Arifureta. I would give it a straight up 1/10 based on the few min but obviously I am not gonna rate it.

I thought what you mean is the score is too high for this terrbile incel story.

I must say the MC is that kind of man who I am always trying to avoid. Dealing with this pathetic type is a daily basis for a girl. Can't really watch this anime not thinking about bad experience we all girls have with horny immature boys. It's sad seeing how this behaviours are normalized and also gather approbation.

Please don't only think how to get to the girl's pants. Kazuya is a trash and badly written character. I'll tell you this: you also can't say YanDev is a good person... and they have some resembles XD

I read the manga long before the anime was annouced. I hate it so much. There's no character I hate as much as Kazuya. I don't like Chizuru at all, she's horrible. Ruka and Mami I don't like. Sumi is alright. To resume, I don't like at all any of the other characters as well. The history makes me wanna die, I hate it. The same goes for the anime. Only watching it to have more episodes watched in this website and I already know I'm going to score it a 2. I give the manga a 3, only for Miyajimas's art, sadly wasted on this series.
Btw, I'm up to date on the manga, and the reason of why I keep reading it despite how much I hate it is to be able to talk about it without being told that I can't cause I don't know what happens in the later chapters.

Chill and learn to live with the fact that some series you like have an average mean score.

He doesn’t though. And that’s the problem. After the supposed “redemption arc” you call it he reverts right back to the same old MC.
There is no character development to be had. If you don’t like him at the start. Which I understand why you wouldn’t cause he’s terrible. Then you will never enjoy this anime/manga.

Is there another manga version of Kanojo Okarishimasu? Because after 150 chapters of the manga I'm reading the main character is the same pathetic cringe kid and no character development happened at all. What "redeeming" are you talking about? lol

Im going to post some of this series scores:

MAL: 7.2
ImDB: 7.3

If you see those scores, theyre almost identical so why are ranting over a said series. For me i find it fun and entertaining to watch. At the end of the day its up to the viewers on how they are scoring a said series plus if they are enjoying it or not.
