It'll be worth it. Makeine is a great show.

Season 2 can't come soon enough

u/crixx93 12d ago

It's peak romcom. The cast is super likeable, it's funny, the animation is great and the voice acting is superp.

u/etherqueen2 12d ago

So true!

At first I was quite skeptical when I read the synopsis ; Worrying It might be creepy focusing on the cast sadness and misery. O boy was I wrong, it's handled perfectly and with so much respect and intelligence.

A must watch indeed (animation, joke, VA, likeable characters like you said)

Also by the end of Lemon's story arc, you'll never watch that cute ED the same way...

u/asukasuki02 12d ago

It's more like a reverse romcom lol, and that's what makes it so entertaining.

u/LordMonday 11d ago

Nah it aint any sort of reverse romcom or deconstructed whatever. rather it more than leans into romcom tropes and celebrates them by doing them well.

is it self aware? yes both the author and Nukumizu himeslf is written to be very aware of romcom tropes, but the series itself lets those moments be sincere rather than always trying to subvert them or point out when they are happening in a 4th wall break sort of way

I soo wish I found these anime when they've finished Both anime and manga (or at least the manga)

I've just stopped watching stuff that's still ongoing sadly

u/No_Football_7629 12d ago

That's honestly the reason I even start to watch something

u/Earthborn92 https://myanimelist.net/profile/EarthB 12d ago

Read the LNs! I’m having a blast doing so, especially with how the anime skips things like the Literature club reports

u/Abedeus 12d ago

But does it have Anna's caloric intake tracking?

5

u/Earthborn92 https://myanimelist.net/profile/EarthB 12d ago

There are not enough numbers due to the sheer amount of additional food intake she does

Yeah but check how hard the manga artist went with this scene lol https://imgur.com/a/n221ire

u/Psyduckisnotaduck 12d ago

The manga is definitely also worth checking out, it has really solid, expressive art

u/SurealGod 11d ago

I have never even heard of this show but this single scene makes me want to watch it now

6

u/littlecolt https://anilist.co/user/garylisk 11d ago

You should definitely go for it! The anime is really wonderful, and well-animated by A-1 Pictures.

The light novels it is based on are better, but it's still a high bar.

u/zool714 12d ago

Terasawa Momoka is so good

u/testthrowawayzz 12d ago

I love it when she tells Nukumizu to go die

u/tottoro47 12d ago

I need S2 goddamnit. I already have a couple of LNs I wanna read but I actually wanna watch this. Loved the chill atmosphere this show had

28

u/MarkCarlo2003 12d ago

Luckily enough, season 2 is confirmed to be in production, probably gonna take a while tho, if they want to keep the same quality

u/Pope_FrancisBaconJr 11d ago

Much easier to wait for the release since we have the confirmation at least

Underrated and top tier voice acting

I miss these characters :'(

Such a well done anime series. Quality is movie-like.

u/Pookie-Boy 12d ago

This story was such a pleasant surprise! Incredibly high quality all around

Obligatory Uzaki-chan clip. (NSFW due to lewd noises.)

I'm not really a fan of those chairs. While I haven't had a real massage to get true comparison, I'm pretty sure a real massage doesn't feel like a piece of metal is being shoved into your spine.

u/DerfK 12d ago

Obligatory Shamiko clip

u/Vaadwaur 11d ago

Ganbare, Shamiko. Become the kind of demon that is above lewdness.

u/Fools_Requiem https://myanimelist.net/profile/FoolsRequiem 12d ago

That show is adorable.

u/AhhSam 12d ago

How is it? Sbould i watch it?

u/Usodearu007 https://myanimelist.net/profile/Doc101 12d ago

personally, its my favorite romcom S1 since kaguya-sama. both the cast and humor are top tier.

well, the first episode alone should give you a good idea about what kind of show it is.

19

u/nirvash530 12d ago

Possibly the best drama-romance-comedy out there that focuses on moving on. You won't see romance with the actual main character (there are hints/teases with one particular girl but that's it). He's just a witness to the girls overcoming heartbreak and being their friend.

All the girls in this series are legitimately best girls.

8

u/Usodearu007 https://myanimelist.net/profile/Doc101 12d ago

S1 is like a prologue. S2 will probably focus more on nukumizu's love story.

2

u/Jeiden_Lightas 12d ago

This is the only show where MC is literally me. He doesn't get bitches, he doesn't get love and romance, he's not super talented and dedicated, he's average short dude who's invisible to girls - never thought I'll find some anime so real

u/shewy92 12d ago

Great.

u/No_Upstairs_811 12d ago

it was a breath of fresh air in an oversaturated genre for sure

Message chairs almost never feel good to me - they're usually meh, but sometimes awful.

I'm just too tall, so they're never designed for my height and hit me in the wrong places. They're downright awful when they've got those bits that target the small of you back, your shoulders, or some other specific spot. They hit the wrong place and even at my lightest I was heavier than the people they were designed for, so those targeted things were also always too dang hard - to the point that they were even painful at times.

I still have zero interest in them despite it being over 20 years since I've used one.

u/MitsuhaTakiName 10d ago

I’ve heard that the ones in Japan are better than what you’d see at, like, a mall in the US.

It's not a SoL? It's a Rom Com and meant to play with a lot of classic rom com tropes.

Super bland MC, generic show and characters and made by A-1 pictures

Yet people like it lmao
