What the fuck did I just witness?

I am not that new to anime, but I have this goal to watch many different genres and go through different themes (as in the plots) as much as possible. I have seen mixed reviews about Domestic Girlfriend and it's been on my watchlist for quite some time. Because I am a sucker for romance in any shape and form, I decided to finally watch it. And for your information, I did not check the MAL score for this before watching, which I kind of regret now.

I did rate this 4, which I think is GENEROUS. The only ... character that did NOT make me want to drink bleach and die was Rui. Don't get me wrong, she was a dumbass too, but tolerable. The opening was fire, which this anime did not deserve.

The thing that disturbed me the most was the plot. Like WHAT THE FUCK??? "Forbidden romance" my ass. You mean ILLEGAL ROMANCE?? Hina was his teacher, TEACHER!! AN ADULT. An adult and a child. That is not romantic. SHE IS A PEDO and a groomer. And on top of it all his STEP SISTER. Natsuo gets between two sisters, oh I'm sorry, his STEP SISTERS. They really tried to make this a love triangle. It's just a bunch of horny teenagers (some of who are siblings) and an mature ADULT woman. The plot made no sense at all. Natsuo is a dumb teenager who is clearly not mature enough to understand relationships whatsoever. He isn't mature, because HE. IS. A. CHILD.

I am not the type to drop an anime, so I pushed myself to finish this. Now I kind of wish I had dropped this after the first episode. I am shocked to see that this anime / manga even has fans. I have not read the manga, but I am pretty sure it is not any better. I am disgusted, save your time and do not watch or read Domestic Girlfriend, please. If you genuinely enjoyed this, I am deeply concerned for you.
