From the very first scene, where the MC was whining because real life isn't anything like Rom-coms, only to wake up and find that his childhood friend had snuck into his bed - like she apparently does every morning - I figured this was going to be an aggressively dumb, not exactly subtle anime. But yikes.

Yep, this show is stupid trash so I am on the edge on whether to continue or not (have more time on my hands than usual due to being on medical leave).
