Synopsis

Kazuya Kinoshita is a 20-year-old college student who has a wonderful girlfriend: the bright and sunny Mami Nanami. But suddenly, he doesn't. Without warning, Mami breaks up with him, leaving him utterly heartbroken and lonely. Seeking to soothe the pain, he hires a rental girlfriend through an online app. His partner is Chizuru Mizuhara, who through her unparalleled beauty and cute demeanor, manages to gain Kazuya's affection.

But after reading similar experiences other customers had had with Chizuru, Kazuya believes her warm smile and caring personality were all just an act to toy with his heart, and he rates her poorly. Aggravated, Chizuru lambastes him for his shameless hypocrisy, revealing her true pert and hot-tempered self. This one-sided exchange is cut short, however, when Kazuya finds out that his grandmother has collapsed.

They dash toward the hospital and find Kazuya's grandmother already in good condition. Baffled by Chizuru's presence, she asks who this girl might be. On impulse, Kazuya promptly declares that they are lovers, forcing Chizuru to play the part. But with Kazuya still hung up on his previous relationship with Mami, how long can this difficult client and reluctant rental girlfriend keep up their act?

If you can't take cringy things do a 180 and go watch ANYTHING else, if not keep reading.

This is a anime that is more simply a car accident that is wildly burning, you know it is bad, but, you won't stop watching it.
It has some good moments and the protagonist with all his defects still make some sense in some parts of the season.
All girls are very much interesting to say the least, because I've thought that this anime had some superficial people but not so much, everyone has their motivations and reasonings to do what they do, even the scummiest ones.
It is an anime ...

Mixed Feelings
So, after all my apprehension over watching this due to the negative reception I hear whenever people talk about this show, when Rent a Girlfriend came up in my list, I sighed deeply, shook off the despair clutching at my chest (or possibly just the hypertension) and prepared myself for a train wreck. And, to my genuine surprise, it really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, or even as bad as people make it out to be.

Now, my problem is; I can't tell whether my brain has been rotted to the core by the sheer amount of anime trash that I've consumed ...

GOOD IDEAAAAAAAAA HORRIBLE EXECUTION

My high hopes coming into this show was crushed as I believed that the idea of 'Rent A GF' would be the perfect topic for a great romcom however this turned out to be a waste of a good idea.

Of course this show has numerous flaws but the most obvious flaw is the characters who regardless of their writing are simply wayy too annoying making it unbearable to get through the show.

The MC speaks for himself as you get to see the dude jerk off which is just unpleasant already but on top of this the decisions the MC makes in ...
