I have a little bit to say about this show

First off I want to say that the opening and the side characters are the reason I continued this show past episode 3, honestly, the side characters carried hard. I loved how dry yui was, shuu and kamiya were also brilliant additions to the cast.

But unfortunately they weren't the main cast so we watched shikimori and yuu for 12 episodes be embarrassed and absolutely refuse to have any substantial character development until the final episode when it was crammed into a measly 24 mins.

It tried to be the rom com of the season like dress up darling was before it but unfortunately it failed. Whilst it is by no means bad, it is defiantly not peak and it does not live up to the hype I had going into it, unfortunate really because it had so much potential.

The opening was the best part of any episode, and I actually loved every second of it from the great visuals to the amazing voice to the well done track. Defiantly one of the best parts of the show after yui.

I hope that rom coms try to put more of a twist on the genre as opposed to just 'make the girl the dominant, safe keeping, one' but whatever,

It is one of those shows that I finished because it is short (finishing at twelve episodes) but in all honesty, I wouldn't have watched it if it was a full twenty four episodes simply due to how bland the main boy and main girl are, but there we go.

This is a show that I firmly believe did not live up to the hype.

It could have been brilliant but settled for okay

now my review has concluded I need to reach the 2200 character and 2100 word limit I will answer four questions I made myself:

who is my fav character from this show and why?

Yui because her sense of humour and dry delivery made the episodes significantly better, unfortunately, it did not save the show.

If i could change 1 thing about the show what would i change?

id make the main two have a more three-dimensional relationship and three-dimensional characters, maybe have yuu suffer an actual consequence of his bad luck, for example, his bad luck causing actual problems in his relationship with shikimori somehow, etc. Id also make shikimori less of a love dove for yuu and have her own problems that are significant enough to make her seem like an actual character as opposed to being akin to a bodyguard that happened to be in love with her client.

is shikimori best girl of the year?

shes not even best girl of the season (that would be yor or chika fujiwara

would i rewatch this show?

I would not simply because there are shows that do the same basic plotlines much better, for example, my dress up darling, maid sama, and wotakoi : love is hard for otaku
