I am inclined to believe at this point, that author is fully aware of the level of quality he is producing, yet he still maintains this just to either mock the viewers or he knows that this sells. We are third season in of that thing for a reason.

Literally what the audience thinks:

Literally what any girl would think of Kazuya and him trying to help Chizuru.


I absolutely refuse to believe that it wasn't deliberate. Kazuya himself seems to realize, that no mentally stable girl or Ruka would even look in his general direction. We even had mob background characters pointing out the same thing.
Think what you want about the author, but this is an absolute 500IQ move.

yeah, it sells. I don't think it's mocking at all. it's just a successful series and the guy is going to milk it because it pays well. it can still be a self insert for the author and be a cash cow at the same time.

it is implied that he really loves chizuru. the fact that he's not getting it on with ruka who's a S-tier woman who wants him to do it is proof enough that kazuya just doesn't want to get in chizuru's pants, it's more than that for him and it is pretty obvious. we have been seeing that since ruka was introduced.

and of course kazuya knows what his status his. but that's the point. we are seeing this garbage of a man getting better with every passing season. he's a lot better in this season compared to season 1. and the point is that he gets good enough to get chizuru i think. that's the main plot of this story. all this interactions with different girls, all this situations he's going through. all these different types of experiences are making him grow and making him a better person. someday he might become a man who deserves to be with chizuru.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.

Dude knows that if he finally ends it nobody will ever read a thing he puts out again. Any manga that releases with his name attached will be avoided like the plague. People are only still here cause of sunk cost fallacy.

This is THE show where I watch it, realize nothing happened, then tune in again next week. Only I used to get dumb entertainment out of it, now it's just boring. Done after this season.

I also feel like the anime is mocking us in a different way, they use so much text on screen to tell us what characters are implying or thinking. Like we are bot trusted at all to deduce anything.

@TsutanaiFuun no one cares if he really loves chiz. almost everyone in this world would fall for a hot japanese chick. the issue is this pile of trash rejects ruka who is a+ tier if not s tier who i rate better than chiz bc of her personality. why go for the perfect women when a 99 grade women is begging to be with your entire life and much younger?

this is like going for marilyn monroe 1% chance when someone like madonna in her teens is begging. like i would at least entertain rukas offer and maybe do a secret plan hiding the fact but thats it theres no way im rejecting her without any guarantees im sleeping with chiz.

idk what to tell you. you're bringing logic into this but how I see it is he loves chizuru and nothing can be done about it. his love is genuine, it's not simply lust or infatuation at this point. if it was he could have dropped chizuru anytime and have ruka's children but he just doesn't love ruka. not to mention her personality is inferior to chizuru. just because anyone could fall in love with chizuru doesn't mean kazuya's love is any less. he is dedicated to her. you're straight up dismissing someone's love like it's nothing. "just go for A tier if you can't get S tier", love doesn't work like that and it's more than physical attraction for him at this point. if he just wanted some pussy, ruka was there for him with legs spread multiple times but man wants a genuine relationship between 2 people who equally love and deserve each other and we're building upon that.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.

It's as simple as that. Keep putting out material until the well runs dry. Creators might never succeed again.

the MC is an extremely cringe massively over reacting incel who acts like a 5 yrs old who's surrounded by people who unironically validate his emotions

there's nothing really else to the series

He knows that it is selling. I don't blame him, it's his work. He is not forcing the audience to watch, so kudos for him.

People just need to start seeing this as a comedy series, anyone expecting a deep romance story will be disappointed.

@bastek66 yet it fell out of top 10 polls on by week 3, has no plot whatsoever, mal score crashed from from low 8s to low 8s., despite being the 3rd most anticipated anime that season. Even ln readers said it was hot garbage that only managed to get a decent score because it had the konosuba label slapped onto it
