When you get rejected by a girl, what do you do? A lot of times, you would get sad and cry about it for a bit. Maybe focus on self-love and spend more time with friends. OR GET ABSOLUTELY SHREDDED OUT OF SPITE. To be fair, all these things are what actually happen with a lot of guys. I myself have even gotten out of relationships and tried to make myself better mentally or physically to show that person what they are missing out on. Of course, you obviously need to be doing things for yourself and not make changes because someone else told you. But our MC got called fat as a kid and is now a hunk to try and ruin this person that rejected him.

I think a lot of people are already turned off by this revenge plot, but this seriously happens. I've even motivated myself in the gym (which I gotta get back to I've been slacking this month) to do an extra rep because "screw this person". I understand our MC's reasoning: this now queen of insults was his only friend growing up who he thought betrayed him which he used as motivation every day for years to get fit. Of course that would be engrained in your mind for revenge since it was the only thing keeping him going.

On to the actual show, the first 7-8 episodes are STRONG. There's great humor and the characters are all entertaining. If it only stopped there, but we unfortunately had to see a terrible plot twist which a fat kid pretended to be the old fat kid (our MC in the past) that for some reason the ice queen liked. The manga reveals why later if you want to read it (it's finished). It's trying to push this narrative that any shape or size can be loved, which is fine but this person faking it is so boring. Genuinely never felt like a threat to the actual MC. I know the story needed something for the MC to confront his past, but this was such a silly way to do it.

I had to know the ending, so I read the manga, and it actually ruined everything I came to like in this anime. The motivations for some characters were even shallower than before, but at the very least there was a happy ending. The comedy on this is really good. Unfortunately, the last couple episodes to the show really took a nose dive. Not really a must-watch at the end of the day, but if you want a harem comedy then go crazy with this.
