Scrolling through the other reviews left me wondering.
Am I seriously the only one who thought this was such a wtf anime?
So, I loved the beginning, it sparked a great interest for me to see the rest of the anime and I liked the first half.
Then the seventh episode came along and things started getting... I don't even know how to describe it. I can't emphasize how weird and nonsensical the show started turning real fast..
The new girl, Himeka was introduced, there she was for one episode and was never noticable again. Literally one episode was all she got. She feels so unimportant, volumed down and received so much less screen time than the other three it makes me wonder why they even introduced her to the show. Hence, it was actually a fight between the other girls.
*Minor spoilers*
The two girls introduced at start, Chiwa and Masuzu, were going at each other in first half of the anime, then Ai came along and story mostly focused between the relationship between her and MC, main lead across 7-10 eps.
Now, that part about her crying when he promised her to heal her back injury wasn't even touched upon until practically the end and after going through the second half of the anime it felt so incredibly out of place
In fact, everything that happened in first part felt like that, as if it was all forgotten.
The pretending part was something I had completely forgotten about throughout the second part, as well as some other things I won't bring up since I already spoiled enough.* *
The last three episodes were so painfully uncomfortable and awkward for me to watch and enjoy. The relationship between the characters was so unclearly shown to me I couldn't even tell to which point did he come to with each individual girl.
You know that feel when you watch a typical harem and you know which one is going to be picked, which ones are just extras and which ones will get the short end of stick? Yeah, nothing of sort is even remotely apparent here, except for the completely discriminated one I mentioned before, himeka.
Maybe I'm being crazy and stupid. I don't know, that's just how I feel about the show as a whole.
