The fact that the show is called my happy marriage but doesn't even have the marriage occured infuriates me . Shouldn't it be called My New Beginning instead? (Just my opinion)

Unless it really ends with a happy marriage. Then it's properly titled.

@Moppit I highly doubt that's gonna happen this season given the fact that only 1 more episode left ╮⁠(⁠╯⁠_⁠╰⁠)⁠╭

I get that "My new beginning" fits better. But I'd say more people would have started a story with the title "My Happy Marriage" since "My New Beginning" is a lot more generic.

Well I think Miyo making a happy marriage with Kudo her goal that is the start of her journey to self acceptance and healing so I think the title is fine.

I haven’t continued with the season yet, but I assume it fully adopts the first two volumes of the light novel (the first 6 episodes were the first volume)? I don’t know if it is spoilers or anything, but with how far I have read in the light novels, they aren’t married yet, and I have read past volume 2.

They are working towards having a happy marriage, so I don't think it's a bad title. Not just about the marriage itself but the idea of it.

It's the same name as the Manga which would probably end in a happy marriage.

@Raajdeep no, it implies that her marriage continues. especially if they make it 'my happy marriage 2nd season' but 'my new beginning 2' implies she's having another beginning again, even if you add '2nd season' at the end, it's like holy shit how long is her beginning gonna be lol.

I think "My Happy Marriage" is a great title because it hooks us viewers immediately with what the title implies, especially for romance fans. It would be difficult to convince people to watch a romance show called "My New Beginning" since it has to imply that we already know who the character is from the beginning (which we did not). Miyo might be the main character, but she's an unreliable narrator and definitely someone who struggles to stand on her own for the most part, and a title called "My New Beginning" invokes Miyo as a character who broke through the stigma and got out of her own when we know that's not where the story went.

Plus, the title didn't technically lie to us. "My Happy Marriage" can also be implied as "I am happy that this marriage happened".

I know this is an old thread, but OP has a very limited concept of 'happiness.' It doesn't pertain to having good and positive things happen to you. It's having a pleasant life as a whole with its share of ups and downs, sadness and joy. If Aristotle is to be followed, having a happy marriage means having a lifelong relationship that's fulfilling as a whole despite having some negative episodes.

The Japanese language seems to make this distinction too in that it uses shiawase, a more enduring form of happiness, compared to useshii, which is something momentary and fleeting. The title uses shiawase: Watashi no Shiawase na Kekkon.
