This episode was phenomenal. I am flabbergasted to how we arrived here, like what the fuck. Episode 1 was a 5/10, episode 2 was a 2/10, and now episode 3???? A literal 10/10. Just as emotionally captivating as FMAB episode 4, which is going to be an incredibly controversial take but holy shit this one’s good.
The episode follows our main character, Rentarou and the primary girlfriend of the episode, Shizuka.
Shizuka is a short, quiet librarian who has extreme social anxiety when it comes to communicating. Her fix for this is that she carries around a book that she’s memorized, flipping to the page and line for those communicating with her to read.
Rentarou in the previous episodes was always incredibly passionate about those who he’s romantically involved with, but this time he brings it to a whole new level.
He spends all his of his free time for days to the point he’s sleep deprived, manually typing this girl’s book into an app, so she can simply tap the line she wants to say and it’ll text-to-speech it for her. It really shows what kind of person Rentarou is. He said that he would never push her to speak verbally to him, as he knows how hard it must be for her to talk to people. This is in direct contrast to Shizuka’s past, as her mother was very verbally abusive towards her. She had no friends because she was called the weird girl. Rentarou goes out of his way to not only accept this, but improve her way of communication substantially, and I find that beautiful.
The comparison to the fantasy world (in the book Shizuka speaks out of) was wonderfully done too. It was quite a simple story, but that’s all it needed to be. I especially appreciate how when Shizuka points to a passage out of her book, it isn’t a perfect translation to what she wants to say, which is much more realistic. It shows the studio/manga taking the extra step to add an additional level of quality.
I wasn’t looking forward to the end of the episode, because I had a bad feeling that Shizuka would be introduced to Rentarou’s other girlfriends and it would be really cringe. I was really surprised. Hakari’s initial reaction is being overwhelmed by appreciation for Renrarou, as he had found another girl to love like the others, this was a wild reaction lol. Karane (tsundere) is initially very upset, and we get this crazy animation frame of her yelling. Rentarou says that if he ever loves Hakari and Karane less because of another girlfriend, that he will literally kill himself. He even ordered a knife off of amazon lol.
Speaking of which, this episode is really funny. It has less jokes than the first 2 episodes, but these ones are much better. The first 2 episodes weren’t overly funny in the first place.
The animation is on par with the first 2 episodes, that being really good.
Before I finish here, let me mention that having more than one girlfriend is very odd, and personally I think it’s really gross. In shows like this, it appeals as a male fantasy and doesn’t portray women realistically, which can be detrimental to a teenager’s perspective on women. I do not condone this. That said, this critical flaw is is unavoidable, and to watch this show you must look past it. Personally I can overlook this. Or at least I’m trying, the first 2 episodes were quite hard to watch at times. Unlike the Oshi no Ko insest and pedo parts, which were direct choices made and make the flaws a much worse show.
I’m excited to see where the show goes, considering the huge differences in score I’m giving each episode. Episode 3 will most likely be the best episode, and I’m praying that episode 2 was the worst. No one is going to read this review, like literally no one fucking cares lol

Shizuka so adorable. "Must protec at all costs" type of girl. Didn't expect to see her getting abused by mom and classmates... *rage face*
Surprised that the blondie is the only one to make sense lol. Rotting brains :D
Will she have a heart attack after 4th and 5th gf? :D Guess she'll just give up.

Shizuka is way too adorable! She definitely doesn't deserve that ruthless treatment from her peers and mom simply because she's shy! I'm glad Rentaro is such a great soulmate and was able to help her even slightly.

It's unironically refreshing to see a harem anime where the main character isn't afraid or hesitant to act on his desire at all – if all lovegons were resolved with polyamory, maybe I wouldn't have so much beef with the romance genre, lmao.

Rentaro is shamelessly collecting new girls left and right, but he still manages to stay likeable due to the lengths he's willing to go for all of his love interests and the fact that he communicates his genuine emotions regularly. The show even acknowledges the absurdity of the situation through Karane's character yet simultaneously manages to make it feel like bringing new girlfriends into a relationship is an acceptable, everyday occurrence... This show is actually way more well-written and wholesome than I ever expected, haha.

Speaking of Rentaro's determination, the fact that he copied the entire book for Shizuka manually was so sweet! And even sweeter was seeing her be moved by the gesture after her backstory had been revealed... (⁠〒⁠﹏⁠〒⁠) Cheap formula, but it hits.

After the second episode was mostly gags that didn't necessarily land for me (not helped by the creative liberties taken in the localisation), I was surprised how good this one was. Wholesome and moving, but still funny.

Nothing else to say that hasn't already been said. 10/10 episode.

Perfection. I love the extra scenes taking place in Circlet Love Story and those scenes not only fill out extra time but also elevates Shizuka and Rentaro’s growing relationship. A really well done episode.

They really nail the blushing in this anime. It stands out a lot compared to other romance anime’s.

I’m curious to see how he goes about handling the next few girls and how the author managed to keep such a stupid plot together.

Rentaro has managed to get 3 girlfriends before most romance mc’s even realise they have feelings for the female mc.

Shizuka might be my favourite so far. She feels the most real and relatable so far.

This show is so stupid I love it.

Not quite as explosive and funny as the first two episodes, but really sweet! Shizura is so cute, I just want to hug her and tell her everything will be alright xD

I fear between Thirsty & Tsundere, I fear the worst for her is yet to come. Love isn't all cute & corny as in her favorite book. But Rentaro will certainly help her out. Unless another Soulmate appears...

This will be my dropping point. I was trying not to fast forward at all points. I guess one thing that ruined the episode for me is how often I see the quiet type character in anime. She has the sense of humor of a dried squid, and had no spine at all. Even TWGoK chic knows when to talk back. I usually like harems, but not ones where the fem Cs can't do anything outside worshipping the mc as a god. This episode lacked comedy I watched it for, and I could never respect this as a romance. Lol

First loli gf is here and she's sooo cute! It's like seeing Nanako (Senryuu Shoujo) or Komi but shy, loli and with a shitty middle-school life. Definitely must protect!!

Great introductory episode. I'm honestly impressed that a show with such dumb premise can mix comedy, seriousness and heartfelt moments so well.

Must be one of a kind thing to converse with someone who does the same with you.. with the help of a book??? Lol, but yeah this was exactly what happened when Shizuka got on screen, felt the soulmate shock and happened to make eye contact with Rentarou. Though I loved how she introduced herself as the guardian who governs this place.. the place being the library lol. Anyways, being the walking attraction our man is, it didn't take long until he started exchanging books and day to day talks with her.

Now as it might have been expected, the term "friendship" wasn't known to Shizuka since forever, and knowing this fact alone led Rentarou to one of his freak stunts once again… I mean dude literally made a whole copy of that one volume of the novel and stored it in sd, just so Shizuka could use the same on her "text-to-speech" app lmaooo. 

100 out of 100 for dedication, and of course he got the reward too.. Shizuka confessed and now she's part of the harem as well. Though not sure if Hakari should have this reason while accepting lol.
@Softhenic03 i agree with you buddy

Quite ironic how you got the series this wrong, considering this one of rare harem where every female main character stays relevant all the time, all have agency and constantly interact with each other even without their beloved MC. Especially funny bit about not respecting romance, considering some chapters blow dedicated romance series out of the water.
