Ah yes it's feels good to have Natsuki Hanae again in another romcom after Masamune-kun end last season.
and also Saori Onishi as your "perfect girlfriend" again after Shikimori?


Reminds me of Hajimete no Gal, anyone?
but wholesome, maybe.

Yeah, that was not good. It was slightly better than Megane from last season, at least. Though that was a pretty low bar. I guess I will give this a couple more episodes. Best thing about the episode is MC girl's hair.

I'm surprised how they actually managed to talk about what was on their mind without holding back. This really seems like a start of a sincere relationship.

Looking forward to them exploring the issue of what liking each other means and for Shirakawa to learn that actual dating isn't just about what bf wants, but her feeling should matter too.

"You can argue whether or not partner count causes divorce, but on average, couples with less partners get divorced or broken up less."


Yeah, duh. If you only date 2 people and die lonely and alone, you've only broken up with 2 people.

If you've dated 4 people and broken up with 3, but died alongside the love of your life, you've technically broken up with more people.

No shit, sherlock. If you date less, you break up less. That's just math.
@loreeellaii lol way to misconstrue the point, but let me spell it out for you: people who are virgins who get married will get divorced less on average than people who have a body count from previous sexual partners and get married. Relating it as to why men want virgins, it's cause 50% marriages end in divorce and around 80% of divorces are initiated by women. If you can do the math, then women with previous sexual partners are divorcing their husbands at higher rates.

Not trying to read too deep into this, but it really is sad that she has an image of dating like that. Hopefully, he can man up now and treat her right for real.

Op suggests that we might get some side couples too, I'm not expecting anything at all from the series but hopefully it turns out fine-to-good ish. Feels like that's the best it could get to, based on this first ep.

@RedChrome

Hence why its still considered anime when no s*x scenes involved. Though shes probably done it too many times to know how it all works

I read the first couple volumes a long time back and it was really cringey and annoying to read then and the anime hasn't changed much from what I remember, still pretty annoying to watch through here. The main characters suck, the voices of the side characters/Ryuto's friends were annoying, the premise feels boring to watch with the relationship dynamics feeling way too predictable and stale to watch and just everything about this episode did not click whatsoever. Not much positives to gather from this, can't even say I've outgrown stuff like this since I never enjoyed anime like this to begin with when I was a bit younger.

so the actual reason why some people are showing such discontent especially towards this show is because of how women (young or not )are being depicted in an awfully negative manner in more and more animes,
where either they themselves show no self-respect and dignity leading them to be shown as a mere sex object or are a victim of various assults like_sexual and verbal.
.
and some of us just wants to see more wholesome romance like TONIKAWA, ETC. and see women get treated is a more appropriate manner.
.
bottom line is that there is nothing wrong with not wanting to see other people suffer regardless of wether or not that person is aware of their own suffering.
we just wish that 'it didn't had to be that way'
reality is as cruel as it is if even fiction is going to be this way than.........!!!

Oh no, it’s the same suuuuuuuuuper bland, dark haired, gloomy, by-product of the industrial waste which goes by the name of light novels, protag ONCE AGAIN.

“My life is miserable as a high schooler, with little to no friends, but.. but I want a cute girl who could order me around as a girlfriend”. Yes, it’s the same background telling too, and guess what? A gyaru who’s rumoured to be a sex-freak, and coincidently the crush of this creature, accepted his proposal of going out, just like that… JUST LIKE THAT. Guess the rumours did have some truth in them after all:)

And no, we didn’t just stop there. That girl literally led this loser to her home, because they’re now going out… asked him if he wanna go all out and have sex, because they’re now going out… and, straight up accepted the fact that it’d have been fine if they fucked like rabbits, BECASUE THEY’RE NOW GOING OUT lmaooooooooooooo.

We didn’t see sex or anything, because of course these dudes aren’t programmed that way. So, would not pretend to be surprised.

But man, this was some horrendously stupid first episode, might be top two this whole year in that category lol. Can just laugh it off.
@Softhenic03 Can't agree more.

The last Oonishi Saori lead role I saw from a high school romance was Shikimori (I skipped Fuufu), and Shirakawa pales miles in comparison as a character. As Shikimori, Oonishi was able to showcase a strong performance in a female lead with high EQ from episode 1, while as Shirakawa, it is pretty much a complete 180. Shirakawa Runa has to be among the most bland / lowest EQ female characters I’ve seen and this is reflected in the short gyaru influenced lines that she uses within this episode. I’m very disappointed in this first impression of a character, albeit Oonishi nailing just how shallow Shirakawa is - dating and bringing home a partner who’s name she did not even know. I sincerely hope that Shirakawa will grow and develop from the boring mess of a character she is right now. (There’s never any hope for male leads in shows of this nature, sorry Hanae Natsuki.)

Meh. This is really not going to be any good, isn't it? The mc is your basic LN self insert introvert with no major selling points (why would any girl in that age group as beautiful as she is go out with him? Oh yeah, he's kind (sure)), his friends are the typical despicable jealous lot that hate anyone that is getting ahead of them in any sphere of life and neither the animation, music or art is anything to get excited about.
The worst thing is going to be the discussion threads here though. The level of incelness and hate directed at the female lead in some of the comments is astonishing.

The basic plot of shy guy starts dating hot girl isn't new. But Runa & Ryuuto are presented in a fairly realistic way. I'm eager to see how their relationship develops. Since the creators aren't looking to get laughs every few minutes, I hope to learn more about Runa as a person.

It hasn't convinced me at all. The protagonist gives me a bad feeling. I think Runa's development could be interesting, because her point of view of love is hard... I feel bad for her... Let's see how this progresses.

So if I understand right form her past relationships she has developed a f*cked up understanding of what a relationship is because people only were after her body and MC he's gonna teach her what a real relationship is where you're after the person not their body. But here come my thought and the actual me trying to understand her. Does she have trauma or is she just genuinely stupid. Well I definitely calling her a bimbo. But like how she constantly being in relationships. So why didn't she learn form them? Sounds like a fear of abandonment and loneliness to me ah and the need for constant validation.

Okay, so the whole point is that the FMC basically had multiple boyfriends in the past and all she did was give her body out for them to use?? Man.. my stomach was literally hurting while watching the first episode. Imo it's a wack romance if the MC or FMC already had their v card taken and not just by 1 person, but multiple. Like man. Can't we just get something wholesome where both MC and FMC are each other's first? :( I'll give it another chance and see what happens in the next 2 episodes of so.

I wasn't going to watch this, but I was just craving some trashy romcoms. There always feels like there is some vanilla romance of the season that just has the unpopular boy getting with the popular girl, and this isn't an exception. It makes me nostalgic for how simple romance seemed when I was in high school.

I would give it credit for Runa being shown being taken advantage of and Ryuuto wanting her to focus on what she wants in the relationship, but it does reek of "I would be so much better for her" type of wish fulfillment. Sometimes a bit of wish fulfillment and comfort food is just what someone needs thou, so I hope the people that like that get some enjoyment from this show.

I was a little shocked by some of the reactions in the forums. The show is literally called the experiences you and the inexperienced me, if you had a problem with the female lead being with people before you shouldn't have started the anime, lol.
