Story :
So, the story being your typical as you might have guessed from the title is just Alya speaking Russian and hiding her feelings from those around her, she does so by speaking in front of the MC. Now this concept did get my attention and I thought it might be something unique. But the way it has been progressed, I found it very cliché. Even the fact that the MC learnt a whole language such as Russian is insane and just to converse with a girl, is like nuts. Some snippets of a childhood friend are shown which cover the backstory, and trust me this idea has been used in like every other romance anime. If the author wanted to do something unique then he should have just followed the story with the same sense of uniqueness.
Apart from this, there are a lot of fan services in this show which I hate. Don't get me wrong, I like fan services, in fact I love them but the fan services in this show are just downright indecent, creepy and unrealistic.
Characters:
1) MC - The MC is the perfect human being. He literally has no flaws and he is good at everything. He is a ladies man as well and he learnt a whole other language which just showcases how intelligent he is. This according to me are the worst type of MC's in a romance anime. These guys do not even try to do anything since everything is well served to them on its own. The harem of girls just fall for them because of their fictional priviliges.
2) Alya - Your usual usual tsundere-chan. She also has good looks, good popularity, good intelligence, but unlike the MC she finds it difficult to deal with other people. The MC being her guardian always guides her out of these tough situations. She is written in such a way that it's almost too predictable to what she'll do next. She denies her feelings of love towards the MC (ofc) because of her pride like you see in almost every romance or harem anime.
3) Yuki (MC's sister) - The most annoying character you'll find in a romcom. She yaps a lot and also has a brother complex. Now this is really weird and in no shape can I fw this. Some said it's a joke but jokes are supposed to be funny and not creepy and weird. It's almost like that this thing is very off-putting and if it wasn't there then this show would atleast be watchable and it wouldn't even affect the story as such.
4) Alya's sister - She might be the only perfectly written character out of all. I have no problems with her.
Art & Sound:
The art is super good and the animation is alright. I really like how all the characters are drawn and the backgrounds are done. 10/10
The osts are kinda mid, voice acting however I must say is top notch.
