| Dormant male MC stories are the new hot thing now, aren't they. |
 |
| Oh boi. It's ENGI again, which means Kadokawa is rather interested in making money than anime. Sounds like this Popular Girl vs Unpopular Boy type of romcom, which we have quite a lot lately. |

| I didn't expected the light novel will get an anime adaptation. I've beem reading this since the novel was released and for those people will expect something from this show, don't expect something great. This is a lowkey Rent A Girlfriend + Sono Bisque Doll story. And ENGI will animate this? Good riddance. Well that's the same for the novel. |

| GREAT! FINALLY! LET'S GOOOOO! I really hope ENGI will not mess everything up. |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| This sounded really good, then I saw it was by ENGI… I’ll still watch but hopefully it is decent. |

| So, LN rom-com adaptations are now a seasonal thing too? |

| Studio ENGI, automatic red flag. I may watch, but I'm going to wait. |
  |
| I really dun like ENGI's adaptations. They tend to be bland af. |

There is some kind of love triangle in the light novel, but not a harem. |

| Never heard of this LN title. So I went to the LN community to check for responses. One of them mentioned that this LN is similar to My First Girlfriend Is A Gal. Never heard of that anime too. :/ |

Sounds like this Popular Girl vs Unpopular Boy type of romcom, which we have quite a lot lately. Popular Girl and gloomy* boy. I hanged out in the LN community. The most common types of romcoms are: 1) Popular Girl and gloomy boy. A lot of them has "Angel" in the title. 2) Started dating from a penalty game. A lot of these types of romcom LNs have not gotten English translation. 3) Popular girl wants to be spoilt by boy (most of the time average boy). There is a new one last month in HJ Bunko. By the way, the number of new romcom LNs outnumber isekai LNs~ |
| ENGI is pretty much a death sentence for it lmao. |

| The synopsis sounds shit to me. |
| @Tokoya oh sorry my bad , it wasn't mentioned in the synopsis , i read it in some reviews well , the title is sussy enough to makes me realise it though x) @ninka22 yep my reaction will be the same , i dropped some anime/manga because the mc was a playboy when it comes to romance/comedy and cgdct i demand a high level of purity , i watch them to relax and warm my heart not for some shitty angsty drama even though i hate playboys/whores i wouldn't mind them in a dark anime |

I'm pretty sure this going to be a sh*t show in the end. Eh, what the hell, just put some fanservice and its good to go.  |

| at least this is keeping ENGI occupied from taking good stuff lmao. but fr tho, i hope ENGI becomes a better studio. |

Hoppy said: Hate to break it to you but it's a bad romance actually. We have an unpopular virgin guy and a whore who dated a bunch of men until she picked him. I think the last volume ends when after they stranded on a love hotel because of a storm. And we have also a bitch who is obssesed with the MC.Natsuki_SanJuan said: I didn't expected the light novel will get an anime adaptation.

That's even worse than I thought, I hope such a romance isn't becoming a trend. |
