| I was hovering between 6 and 7, but overall went with 6/10 I liked how this reverse harem had a clear route; not many series do that for this genre so it was refreshing to see. Shipped her with Ougai > Shunzou > Otojirou > Fujita Although I must say, Fujita route was a little weak lol. He didn't really show any signs of warming up to Mei cuz all she did was cockblock his slashing LOLOL. So his route was a little out of the blue for me. But I understand this series might have been too short to work out some specifics. Shunzou went hard in on the second male lead syndrome TT____TT He was actually the 3rd to join my ship list (Otojirou beat him), but the focus on him went so hard in the latter part of the series that he really grew on me. I just didn't like how his blurred eyesight issue didn't resolve. Initially, I thought his Tamayori eyesight was awakening so that he could see and find the black cat himself, but that wasn't the case. Then I was expecting him to get glasses after that, but he suddenly got okay eyesight again without visiting the doctor for surgery???? NANI?! LOL xD Still an enjoyable watch anyways. I'm glad to see Mei mature throughout the anime bc a lot of reverse harems tend to have weaklings or bimbos as the FL lmaaoooo. I wish she chose to stay tho or at least find a way back eventually orrrr show us the bois in ghost form interacting with her in modern day Tokyo. That would've made me happier with the series. I didn't make the connection that the fox charm was Charlie until the v end tho XD That was a really nice touch C: The least they did was give us a kiss outta this, so there's that semi redeeming factor hahah. Once again, 6/10. The 2 movies are on YouTube, but the auto translate is so bad, idk if I should watch them or not. But yeh, those are the only available options to watch those movies atm so maybe I will ._. |
| I really feel bad for Otogai, man his love always end up being miserable then Elise and now Mei. He deserves better. Expected ending but they could've made it better |

| Aw, turned in to a bad looking end... There is no way she goes back in time in the otome game right? :/ Hope the movies give us a better ending. |

| I guess I understand what the ending was trying to do but it was done so badly that it actually just made me mad and her leaving makes her seem like a really badly written character. Based on everything we knew about her there was no good reason for her to go back, not at least good enough reason to leave the love of her life and all these people she cares about so strongly. We could've gotten the "she learns to open up and love herself and gain confidence" even without her going back in her time. Also the way she didn't even bother to talk about her decision with Ougai-san until right before and even then she didn't really explain anything. She knew he's had his heart very badly broken before and now she just goes and does this to him?? Without even talking to him. And right till the end she kept on telling Ougai-san that she was going to stay with him forever... so she just broke all those promises and maybe even lied at the end, cause there's no way she didn't know the day before (or if she didn't then going back seems like a spur of the moment decision which also makes her look awful). I quite liked her character but this ending just ruins it for me. If you want to make her go back then at least do it better and in a way that shows why she is doing it better. It would be more understandable if there was family or friends that she was missing, or if she had absolutely anything going on in the present time. Her self discovery and learning who she is has nothing to do with her time, and I just find it hard to believe she would leave Ougai-san and the rest. Overall I enjoyed watching this but this ending is really bad and unsatisfying. Time to go and find the actual good endings of the visual novel somewhere on the internet to get an actually satisfying ending for this story. Now I just feel so bad for Ougai-san, as the way Mei was written it makes it seems like in the end she didn't really care about him all that much. :/ |
