this is not going to be really a review but something i just had to get out of my chest. this anime is possibly the most wasted potential I have every witnessed in my life.

From the same guy who directed "Plastic Love", Engaged to the unknown is enjoyable if you are looking for cute girls and more than decent animations but that is where it pretty much ends. the premise of the plot and the backstory of the Male love interest could have been so much more than what it was and if the conflicts of this anime did not only rely on misunderstandings then ... this could have been one of my favorite romcom. There was barely any build up to any of the major reveals except one that I can certainly tell that it did have some build up and the romance was not really strong at all as the main plot of the show is barely given any development and the climax of this love story is... how should I put this... all too sudden, why? Because there was not enough build up in the romance.

so there is my rant, had to get that out of my chest. I still enjoyed it nonetheless but the story disappointed me for not being what it could have been.
Should you watch this show?- honestly you probably have better ones to watch other than this but its worth a try if you like cute girls but can handle the story being.... okay....

short review- from a story telling point, this anime is certainly watchable but you really have no real reason to watch this show other than to look at cute anime girls.

little bit longer review- if you like cute girls in an anime, then you are going to like this anime as the story is far from terrible but not that great either, still watchable though. animation isnt great but that is to be expected from a slice of life anime that is from a studio other than kyoto animations. characters are pretty bland and unoriginal but still cute so there's that and very wholesome. ... Now if you are trying to watch a show that actually tries to have some good story behind it, then dont watch this. At the time of writing this review, I have not finished the series so take everything with a grain of salt

I watched this movie thinking it would be pretty mediocre and the first 5 min of the movie just made me think it would be another wasted potential the tv show was. but thank the lord I was wrong. the shining moment of this anime movie is probably going to be the character development that was missing in the tv show. kyoto might have listened to the feed back and added some deep stuff in the anime when it came to teenage love, confessing and both sides being to shy to acknowledge their love for each other. personally, I enjoyed it and I would have ... been a 10 if it wasn't for the first 5 min. I do recommend it and the show but don't expect too much from the show because like I said, it was a wasted potential that this movie tries to redeem itself
