Koi to uso -About Anime, Manga and my feelings for Sanada Ririna [and the fact that i think I've come to genuinely develop love feelings for her even though shes not real]
About the Anime
For me it was a great experience. I could call it even a sublime masterpiece, maybe just because I have developed genuine feelings for ririna and fall for her so much that watching her and hearing her voice was as much as to call it a sublime experience.
just the fact that anime actually covers 2 of the greatest scenes in the whole manga made me rate it with a good grade
you know...
At the ministry of health special lecture where yukari push her down and kisses her for the first time it was captivating watching her reactions
Hot spring trip where they both spend the night alone in the same room, where ririna suggested a plan for yukari and misaki even after her being conscious of her feelings for yukari, she pushes them aside and at the end the both engage in probably the most hot scene in the whole anime adaptation manga, in where both realize that they love each other....
Man this 2 scenes especially the second, are priceless and worth the watching in the whole anime adaptation
i know anime is not that great rated
when both go submit the paper to the ministry of health and having successfully concluded the procedure to official engagement
...still the part when yukari tell her he chooses misaki [misaki route], that part just broke my heart into very small pieces, i'm glad i read misaki route first
so i could have ririna for the end and finish with a greater satisfaction
Perhaps it was my favoritism which made me leave the best part for the end yeah. i ended up loving everything about her
Abou Manga
ririna route was great it did a perfect job giving a feeling of closure
but i honestly think it could've have been even better
the part when yukari comes back and meets her early morning to tel her " i love you, please marry me", seeing ririna face, expression and smile was priceless for me and i truly felt happy, i wish anime have adapted up to the end to watch this moment but sadly it was just solely to promote manga which is pretty understandable.
If I could at least see more of ririna...
like it would've been nice to had seen the both of them a bit more on a date after the end
and a more passionate kissing... just like the hot spring trip part
[and maybe a more intimate act 😏 since they couldn't accomplish it when they took the ministry special lecture]
still we got to see the wedding wich was so good to give it the final touch needed to accomplish perfect closure
maybe i would’ve liked to see a bit of their married life as an epilogue .... yeah that would've been so good [sighs...]
It was a great story.
compared to misaki route which couldn't really give the same degree of closure as with ririna. since we only see a short epilogue with nothing to build up a good feeling of closure, and totally Hurt ririna as hard as breaking her heart and the possibility of yukari dying soon after.
just imagine...
the person you love and care the most chooses other girl even that girl was her dear friend still hits hard, on top of everything the fact that yukari just wouldn't live a long live she's put to the place where shes not only watching him choosing misaki, but also watching him die some day soon...
truly the worst fate and the worst route or possible future.
that's why ririna does make the true or canon route or whatever you like to call it.
musawo sensei [author] recently started working on a new manga [Kareshi Tokidoki Kanojo] in where it clearly evident ririna was musawo sensei favorite too, girl therefore making her the true/canon route... it's what he intended probably.
the female heroine it's just like another ririna in appearance. I haven't read it yet, it just started days ago from this post date, and I'm really looking forward to it.
i need more ririna T.T
Sanada Ririna
I've come to genuinely develop love feelings for her, seriously even though i know and I'm conscious she is a character in a fiction story, which make me feel even empty inside 😥
She always was there for yukari and cared for him, even to the point of neglect her feelings so that he could pursue his love for misaki
misaki was too, and was there for yukari whenever he needed someone to rely on, always worried for him. that's why i ultimately come to like way more ririna because this and her quirks, her cute reactions, her expressions and her lack of experience when it comes for love and perverted things, it was just so adorable, watching her in the anime adaptation makes it even more adorable, seiyuu portrayed very well her cute voice and expressions.
I can't get it out of my mind, it seems like the only thing I can do to get over it's by writing how I feel. i just come to love her and wish she was real or i was yukari to be able to be with her.
I mean, ik it's a fictional character, it's always stated "this is a fictional story..." everywhere, still i can't help but have developed feelings for her, to the point i wish i was yukari to make her happy, cherish her and be together with her forever... I just can't help it. I've even ended up developing post depression after reading manga till the very end.
I was delighted with her ending on her route in the manga, the marriage proposal, the wedding and their future together.
So good she found happiness she deserved.
[still i can't help but to feel depressed, empty and sad as much as i feel happy for her]
About depression
Have you ever felt like this before when you finish a manga, anime, or visual novel?
it's like having a hole somewhere, pain and emptiness that suddenly appears whenever you finish whenever you've been hooked on something?
when you come to love so much a character or series that letting go at the end does hit hard...
I've felt this several times, whenever a great story or in this case for me a character you've even developed feelings for...
[sighs...]
if you relate with this:
is there anything you can do yo get over this feeling?
it's so painful yet i find myself craving for more stories like this...
Any other anime manga recommendations you might have?
what are your experiences with feelings like this?
I also profoundly like Ririna although I do understand that she is anime so my liking is surely not to the extent of your liking towards her. Ririna is one of those waifus that is severely underrated and overlooked by most romance watchers. I think even Misaki Takasaki is more favoured than Ririna according to MAL with her character having a higher number of favourites. However I think that is just MAL, and in my experience with interacting with other fans, the fan bases between the 2 girls seems quite equal.
The 2 scenes you mention, they are also my all time favourite from the anime due to the intimacy and physical affection presented even when both Ririna and Yukari are opposed to their relationship working out. Another scene I loved was when Yukari had that conversation with Ichijou in the cafe where let's say she was quite unprofessional😅. Also the scene when they were getting the train back from Ririna's grandma's place was such a great scene.
Contrary to you, I actually read the Ririna route first and it honestly felt more realistic. I consider the Ririna route to be the most reasonable where Yukari is thinking the most rational. Even if his emotions are greater towards Misaki, the Ririna route was the best in all aspects when considering his feelings, health, society, parents, government and friendships. Seeing Ririna in joy when Yukari selected her naturally made me smile and realise her efforts did not go to waste. The ending of the Ririna route was also delightful to witness with the wedding and both Misaki and Nisaka attended... it was just perfect!
The Misaki route on the contrary was quite distressing to read. The fact Misaki jumped off the cliff even with the intervention of Yukari was shocking. I really wasn't expecting it to be so dramatic for a romance manga as they both risked their life in that forest. I kind of did feel sorry for Misaki as throughout the entire show, she was sacrificing the love she felt to comply with the government system and repeatedly resisted her affection towards Yukari even when both Yukari and Ririna were in favour of accepting her affection. The worst part of the Misaki route is undoubtedly Ririna's reaction to her rejection. Honestly felt nauseous after that scene knowing how painful it must have been. Ririna is also nowhere to be seen in their future pictures which is sad.
You have probably realised that I really was fond of this anime and manga so it really does bemuse me to how the MAL score is so low. I can kind of understand why Yukari isn't the most commendable or astounding MC and most viewers prefer an MC who is competent and decisive. Also the reason why Misaki initially likes Yukari is pretty ambiguous... It can't just be because of the eraser scene can it?
Other than that it is a very well written anime and manga where it was so engaging to watch and I was amused throughout the entire show.

yeah, misaki jumping from cliff was kinda too much unnecessary drama, still i get it, she decided to abandon everything even abandon the deal so it's like betraying everyone, her family and friends, and betray ririna cuz she knew ririna was inlove with yukari too so was basically killing yukari by taking him to death with her.
i was originally planning for reading ririna rout right after the branching but i thought i wouldn't stand seeing her cry and heartbroken cuz since was a fact it would happen in misaki therefore i endured a bit so i could have the best for the end [and forget her reaction], seeing her cry at that rejection part in misaki route was the worts thing i had to endure.
then the fact to think what ririna would have to go after hurts even more [as i explained in my post], worst possible future.
the part on the train when ririna kisses sleeping yukari even though he noticed was so cute, she couldn't help but to let her fellings out.
yeah, pretty good scene i might say, shes so adorable and loving, i wish i could meet someone like her... [still feeling depressed rn...]
im satisfied with ririna ending and at the same time not cuz i really wanted to see more of her happiness afterwards, wedding part was short but it truly made me feel satisfied and happy about her, at the end with the future collage i couldn't help but to smile why my eyes were watery, i did indeed shed a tear at the end while gazing upon that ending
[and listening anime ending song to build up the mod, listen to the soundtrack was also an option especially tracks 24 and 26, 26 was especially good cuz that's the one playing while the hot spring kissing scene. pretty recommended, this soundtrack. other good track were 10, 15, 40, 30-34 give cozy feeling, though 15, 24, 26 were my favorites.
best route indeed]
I'm glad im not the only one that thinks the same about this series
