Don't really care for the character design...Oh well the story doesn't sound that interesting either. I imagine I wont get past episode 1.

I tried the manga and ofund it just bad, maybe if you really want to watch some light femdom you might enjoy this, or maybe if they increase the fanservice from the manga, since it's there but it's nothing that would make fanservice watchers even care for this series.

Yeesh this looks like a cheap generic h-anime, without any of the nuikge.

I remember reading the manga for this and the main guy was such a cringe worthy dweeb that I just couldn't take it. I was at least surprised that the main girl wasn't the hate magnet in this series even tho she looks like she should be.

I'm not terribly keen on some of the character designs but I may check it out. I don't have high expectations though.

A good funny slice of life rom-com. And at least we don't have to wait until the last episode for the confession.
The characters design is also cute.
I'm in!

See this pisses me off, so many people on the internet talking about this manga calling MC a dweed, a beta, a cuck, etc. It's not easy to talk to girls and be romantic, if anything the MC is closer to a normal guy and how he would act with his first girlfriend than a majority of RomCom MCs.

This is MCs first girlfriend, he's a virgin, it's actually kinda sweet that he's not just drooling all over her and struggles to be romantic with her, cause that's normal for most people.

Reddit and forums may like to believe their all strong Alpha men but in reality they'd struggle just as much as MC if they tried to be in a relationship with a girl who was way out of their league.

"Jun gets on his knees and confesses his love" yeah not normal. But besides that I have no knowledge of the character so maybe he gets better later? Based off my limited knowledge however it seems he has zero self respect and is quite shallow. On top of that his only goal is to lose his virginity? I'm not sure what you would call him but I can say I don't care for him. Mind you this is based off of synopsis and nothing more.

I guess I should be more specific. Him being a dweeb wouldn't have been so unbearable if he wasn't a total as*hole. He only confessed to her for the sole purpose of having sex and is completely incapable of trusting her which just made his "beta" personality stand out even more. And the fact that she genuinely wants a relationship with him made it even worse.

If he gets better later on then fine but with as far as I read it wasn't anywhere close.
