Now yes, I understand that it is exaggerated, but that is what makes it enjoyable! Their constant back and forth makes for a tale of two people who have never loved before, and are finding ways to make the other confess.
As a wise reviewer once said : "if a tsundere and a tsundere liked each other, would they ever find out...?". This basically sums up the entire show, as they both are constantly passive aggressive to each other, while still harboring strong feelings for each other. The situations are exaggerated, but take a good look into what real life situations are like, in a kind of meta-analysis of the romance genre itself.
The only thing I would say fell short of my expectation are the ways in which they decided to go about tricking each other. They only ever think 1/2 steps ahead, and never take their own goals into account, and in the end they manage to lose themselves. This may be part of the point of the story, but this is what makes it falls short from being like some of the great shows that include such mind games (i.e Death Note). That and the sometimes filler-esque situations (i.g when Chika shows her accidental noodle prowess) are the reasons I gave it an 8 overall. Other than that, a real banger.
