It was pretty common that many people recognized this series a dumb, stupid, and cringe worthy of a show. But all in all. This show, Kanojo mo Kanojo gave me an outburst of a laughter. Which 80% of the series are laughing matters. At first glance, I thought this will be another anime where the MC starts being a geek and never will find a solution of what is best for him and for the girls. But what lies ahead are just full of comedy that gives you a genuine smile one after another.
Story: 5
Here we see Naoya, Mukai (MC), a charismatic high school student who has already found a girlfriend (Saki-chan), who was his childhood friend. AND NO, this is not another Osamake. AHHemm. He has committed his whole life to be with his girlfriend and never leaves her. Oh, wait? What's That! Another Girl?!? Is this Harem?!. Maybe. So on, she (Minase-chan) confessed to him. Love Triangle. yadda yadda. WAIT! She wants to talk to his girlfriend!?
"Well let's go watch and find out to what their solutions will be."
Art: 5
Art is good, their thought process of making this RomCom is ideally relevant that happens to be atmospheric of these kinds of genres.
Sound (OST): 6
Since many anime fans happen to be in love with the course of the series. I invested in listening and watching the Intro's and Outro's soundtracks. If you would like to excuse me since this is the first review that I have to put some anime intros that I love about of these kinds of genres (Rent-a-Girlfriend, Koikimo, Wotakoi, Oregairu, Kaguya-Sama Love-is-war, Hyouka, My Little Monster) I love these animes (I meant the ost) which it binged myself watch most of these series just because of OST's. The OST of this anime is aight.. aight. But the opening thoo..
Character: 6
MC is a Chad af
_"It is a motto here in the Anime community when I watch a Harem Series. Which I hate it, but I have to say it. Best girl in the series"._
FMC-1 (Saki-chan) She's has a respected personality, athletic, tsundere ??, a slight cuteness when she gets emotional.
FMC-2 (Nagisa-chan) She cute but dumb
FMC-3 (Rika) Annoying but manageable
FMC-4 (Shino-SAN) One of the smartest of them all, Logical, She Loved Mukai first, “I can’t believe I have to say this”. Best Girl in this series.
Enjoyment: 9
The comedy of this anime is at the peak of not being cringe unlike Osamake(pls god remove my memory of that series). I hope I get to see some more joyous times and get a sequel Kanojo mo Kanojo.
Overall: 85
Its fun, Made me laugh a lot of times, Reading the Manga now, Shino Still best girl(i hate saying that).

Sorry that I would like to compare things here:
Kanojo mo Kanojo is much better > than Kanojo, Okarishimasu
My Thoughts when I watched the first episode back in Summer 2021
When I saw the rating of Kanojo mo Kanojo, it is sitting below 70. It made me think "why". Well maybe because the adaptation is different? So I plan to read the manga because I was so curious enough. After the anime finished airing. I read and caught up with the manga. After all that, I don't know how many times I laughed while reading the manga.
So for the reviewers. Bear with me. If you plan to hate this anime at first ep, don't make others think that this anime is bad. Below 70 rating is not a consideration for me a good rating. I only happen to watch this because of Enoki, Junya is the same voice actor as Itadori from JjK and Sakura, Ayane from The Quintessential Quintuplets as Yotsuba and Nino as Ayana Taketatsu. And I can't believe that they give the VA Rei Takahashi to Shino. I just love the collaboration here.
