I'm reading the manga and I'm so excited for the anime >_<
Well, the story is quite common, but it has a certain charm to it.
Ryou, the main male MC, is like a grown up Tamaki Suoh, well aside from those 'father' feelings 😅.
Expressive, Exaggerating, but sincere with his feelings.

The production seems early, I hope make a good anime because the premise is super interesting.

This doesn't look to bad at all. Might check it out when it comes out.

I guess for countries characterised as having a pedophilia problem, it's not unexpected for pedo romances to become a staple in their respective entertainment fields.

Female MC is in high school and Male MC is in his 20s. For you know high school-ers nowadays are dating adults alot. The synopsis is nothing special anyway.

I'm hoping that this will be good and will do well~

Also, the age gap and the ML and FL kind of reminds me of Takane and Hana, which I hope will become an anime someday...

After reading the synopsis, this is an insta-avoid for me. This is now the 2nd "romance" anime featuring some loser as an adult office worker and an underaged high school girl.

The fact that no one here thinks there's anything wrong with that is the reason why anime fans are seen as creepy pedos smh.

He is neither a loser, nor a pedo. In fact, he is in love with the girl (for a very understandable reason):

And that ‘loser’

Please forget I replied to you. Saw your previous posts.

Anyway, I read a tiny bit of this a few years back and wasn't impressed. I don't think this will turn out good. It's nothing like WotaKoi btw.

Last I heard it's the opposite, western countries are the ones with problems. Also at least learn what pedophilia means before criticizing something.

If anyone was wondering why Eikichi Onizuka was listed as his top favourite character.

This seems interesting but then again expectation can be harsh sometimes.

My god! Stupidity went from 0 to 100 real fucking quick.

Warning people right from the synopsis: This is a romantic comedy about a twisted elite employee and a normal otaku high school girl.

The cast seems pretty good, I hope it doesn't flop

Dec 4, 2020 1:09 AM by HelProcks

Okay, this will either turn out to be the comedic show of the season or flop by 2-3 episodes.

Definitely in to see where it'll end up at.
