Roshidere has a very intriguing concept, but in my opinion, it doesn't fully realize its potential and seems to decline with each episode. The show's comedy is top-tier, largely due to the captivating dynamic between Yuki and Masachika. Despite the title focusing on Alya, I felt that these two characters carried the show. During the summer of 2024, an abundance of romantic comedy series flooded the anime industry, leading to oversaturation that hindered the success of other rom-coms during that season. Amidst this competitive environment, Roshidere emerged as a standout exception, largely due to its captivating waifu characters and an approach that resonated with rom-com fans in various ways. The series managed to captivate audiences and carve out its own niche in a market filled with similar content. Nonetheless, it remains one of my favorites this season, particularly because Yuki is one of the most compelling characters I've ever encountered and is truly one of the best female characters of all time. I highly recommend the show to those who love the rom-com genre. I am confident that fans of the rom-com genre will thoroughly enjoy it.
