I can't believe it… Episode 12 completely destroyed this anime for me. I was so excited for the finale, planning to read the LN right after. But after THIS? Nope. It’s over.

"It's true... I hate you so much, Saito! It's all your fault!" That line from the episode hit hard, but you know what? I hate Himari the most. No matter what excuse the anime gives, I would never want a "friend" like her.

I LOVED this anime because of Akane's yandere/tsundere attitude and her relationship with the MC. Their dynamic was what made the series special. I thought Himari would be sidelined like Hina from Blue Box, but NOPE.

You boast about having perfect memory but forgot Akane from childhood?! That was the core conflict, and you messed it up. This whole thing could have been avoided, but nah, we had to get this garbage plotline instead.

I was hyped for ep 12, ready to dive into the LN. But now? Forget it. I can ignore small issues, but I can't ignore a whole character ruining everything. Himari is the worst, and I can’t stand her.

Up until ep 11, I had this anime rated 10/10 on MAL. Now? It’s getting my first-ever 1/10. I was here for Akane and MC's relationship—that’s what made it special. But the writer just had to ruin it.

I’m done. I’d rather watch something wholesome than force myself through this mess. I wanted to love this series, but the betrayal is too much. Goodbye. It’s over for real now.

I just finished the 12 episodes in one go and i feel like 💩 now with that ending, did some research and heard the chances of it getting a season 2 are dead 0, just wanted to check with the fanbase if theres still a possibility.(im just coping)

I just finished reading the light novel and words can’t explain how great it was🥹

Genunely have been waiting for a while for the new manga translation and a new season to drop. I think vol 9 of the manga just dropped like a week ago. Do we have any chance for s2?

Any hope for season 2 since we are so close to the end of manga?

I really really hated this anime and I just want season two to come out so I can see how disappointing it was again. Hmph. And I DEFINITELY don’t like this anime.

I like her character overall but oh well... 💀

I AM MAKING THIS POST BECAUSE FUCK MAHO! say all negative opinions you have on maho here so we can all congregate to here to Hate on Maho. We can also discuss just how bad she is, however I would also like to hear from any Maho fans on why you like her. I will heavily disagree with, but respect your opinion, and I ask others to do the same.

I want akane there on wedding stage with saito they kiss is front of everyone like himari ,shisei and then after some time we see akane and saito have children and then the end😌

I had postponed watching this one because of negative comments I’d seen on Reddit before it started, so I almost discarded it and my hopes weren’t all that high, but I just decided to give it a shot and I fucking loved every second of it. I watched all 8 episodes and it might’ve already become one of my favorites: it’s very cute, wholesome, and hilarious at the same time and the characters are pretty likable (I’m still unsure about the little sister, though, but we’ll see).

So, I went to check the episode threads and I was dismayed to see such hate and negativity; it was not at all what I was expecting and it made me genuinely sad ☹️. Just wanted to find people I could share the love for this series with and shit, but all I found was toxicity (why even watch it if you hate it so much? I don’t get it, but anyways…).

Regardless, I hope things will go different over here and that I’ll find a more… positive attitude overall. I’m even thinking about the LNs already, so I’ll probably be asking where I should pick them up after the anime ends and all that. By the way, for the people who’ve read them, would you say it’s been a decent adaptation so far?

I'm new to the series, just finished the anime and that's pretty much my only experience so far. I'm seeing a lot of hate towards her and don't really understand why.

From what I saw in the anime she is neglected by her parents and shares more in common with saito then akane does & seems to genuinely want the best for him and to take care of him and can relate the most with him.

Also from what I understand she waited for akane to make her moves and gave her time to persue him, then decided to move in when she had the opportunity when akane didnt. She capitalized on her moments and akane had every opportunity to stop it

I'm totally open to new viewpoints and wanna know more, dont really mind spoilers. When they showed how smart she was and her book collection I can suspect she will mind f**k the characters to her advantage, but I just don't see all the hate. Again totally open to different perspectives and wanna hear y'all out

Boy and girl dating in secret so their work life isn't ruined, brown haired cute FMC, black haired MC

Boy and girl forcefully married in secret so their school life isn't ruined, brown haired cute FMC, black haired MC

Coincidence? What do you think?

I've only seen the anime so far, but Akane is honestly incredibly toxic. Like, if we switched the genders, the stuff she says and does to Saito would be considered emotional abuse. Don't get me wrong, I like Akane, but it's getting to a point where it went from funny, to just manipulative.

She gets angry with Himari for making a move, despite saying she was okay with it. She loses her mind over the smallest things, and my god that temper is just awful. She even goes on to unjustly call Saito a cheater, because he had Himari's number, despite the fact that Saito wasn't romantically involved with Akane in that instance.

Quite frankly, Akane is just awful to Saito, and no amount of "character development" in my opinion could even fix the damage done. She was fine up until after the ring episode, then it just went absolutely downhill.

I'm also incredibly bothered by the way she used Himari. She knew Himari had feelings for Saito. So deliberately making her the fall guy to keep their marriage a secret was cruel. Doesn't matter if it wasn't malicious. She still knew and then got angry with Himari for it. What Akane did to Himari was nothing short of emotional abuse.

Edit

[Episode 12] Her whole speech to Himari is bs. She can't pull that when she refuses to face her feelings. I'm so done

Do y'all think it will ever come?

Personally I def think it's possible, it did good, and they'd have to adapt one more season anyway. (LN has 10 volumes and 5 were adapted w season 1)

(I remembered this subreddit cuz the opening randomly played on my playlist LOL)

This is like post #2 about a potential season 2, imma say it right now, I fucking love this series, I love the manga, the anime. I'd hate for it to be left on just akane yelling "I HATE YOU" to saito on the season finale, they gotta adapt the remaining volumes/chapters etc. Legit. But yeah anyway glazing aside how likely do you guys think are we gonna get a season 2, if I'm being realistic I don't see it for another 1-2 years, or even at all and I've accepted that. But hey, I like to hold on to hope. What about you guys, I know the anime is, unpopular among many fans but, yeah to those who like the anime, what are your thoughts?

I know I made a recent post about it being in English or not but never mind that… I just watched the last 4 episodes and I’m upset because I hated (mainly this): why tf do we have to get a kiss scene (like I was hoping for) BUT WITH THE WORST GIRL IN THE SERIES!!!!????

PLEASE TELL ME THERE’S a season 2! Or even a manga series that I can read more on this anime!

(Sorry for my little butvof overreaction but I HATE that Himari had to be the kiss). WTAF!!!!!!

Edit: Overall I like the anime bc I think it’s a bit of a cute (and different) approach to the high school love romance, but the forced marriage is not too good in my thoughts tho.

I’d rate it a solid 7/10 for me rn based on the Anike only

I know this topic is intertwined with another anime like Danjo no and has nothing to do with Kurakon, but since the Danjo no light novel has ended (at least its youth arc; the author mentions in the acknowledgments at the end that there will be a university arc to continue the story), I'd like to ask you all which Himari is more toxic, the blonde or the blue-haired one.

\And yes, perhaps we already know the ending of the Kurakon light novel where Himari has no chance at all, but judging by the ending of Danjo no, blue-haired Himari will return for her second chance.\**

I’m very new to anime and this is the first anime I read the Light novel or manga of without waiting for the anime to release. But am I tripping or would the series be waaaay better if Shise and Maho were out of the love contest? I find the incestuous trope very unsettling (maybe I’m to western? Idk if that’s normal on Japan) both from Maho’s obsession with Akane and not to even mention Shise.

I love the “best friends fight for the guy” idea, specially with how Akane kinda fumbles the bag every time she speaks even haing home field advantage (literally)

But yeah, I can’t stand how forced Shise and Maho’s characters feel.

That, and that it doesn’t feel like anyone not called Akane actually loves Saito. The other 3 feel like they’re just written to love him for the plot, not that they actually do

Hey I’m not trying to bring hate to the show or anything but I feel like sharing my opinion that Maho, Akane’s little sister is actually my least favorite character in the anime right now… sorry to all those who enjoy the character, I just don’t like the addition of it.. 😨 I’m also curious what others think!!

Or do you guys think they'll ever announce a season 2? Or will they just end it at s1 and use the anime to advertise the manga or something like how many romance animes do apparently. Or would you guys not rather have a season 2 as from what I see in the sub alot of people didnt like the anime.

So plans change, the world spins. I was getting ready to go to sleep. Guess what i see? A comment saying "The girls forced akane to invite them to their honeymoon". The girls did WHAT. OKAY so we being a pushover now? Great, perfect. And there i thought it was over. NO. SAITO DOESNT EVEN KNOW?? Akane you did the wrong choices in life. The author would prolly use this if a honey moon spin-off or sum like that comes, he gonna get the girls on da honey moon even if that means he DIES. God sometimes i hate the guy. He knows we dont want the girls on their honeymoon, but he doesnt care. Im convinced he has a crush on himari of some sort.

I hope saito just flat out rejects them all, so he could spend time with akane. Theres still hope guys!!

Posted bcz i said im gonna do so if akane/saito invite anyone on their honeymoon

"I think i want you for my own". EXCUSE ME?? The age gap is crazy😨 She ruined the show when she appeared. How? First of all: she fucking tried to sexually assault saito when she got to their house, and when akane walked in she fucking said: "i had saito for dessert" ... yeah thats not normal for a girl which is def less than 15 yrs old. Again the age gap is CRAZY😨🙏 Second of all: she gets away with EVERYTHING. I swear to GOD if i see another "ill fondle your boobs❤️" im gonna kill myself🔪 Third of all: You remember the scene where she came into saitos room (i think while they were on vacation) and said to massage her. Guess what? Ofc saito says yes because hes a fuckin punching bag. And it would have been normal if it was ANYONE else than maho (even himari vro), but then she has the AUDACITY to ask him to "massage my butt" 😐 What the fuck. Again saito is a fucking wet towel so he agrees (i hope he dies). And she proceeded to ask "massage my thighs". And saying that she will tell everyone that they showered together. Ts pmo bro🥀 and then she made sounds like saito was fucking her. And guess what? She tells everyone anyways🥀🥀. Like keep your mouth shut you pmo. Fourh of all: I hate her Fifth of all: She is such a pervert and she made akane do pervert things too. Next post gonna be about himari After that ill talk about shise Saito already covered in my a post i did a few weeks ago Final maho rating: 4/10

Now that i think about it the age gap isnt THAT crazy

I ask you the following...

- ¿What would you add to the anime?

- ¿What would you remove from the anime?

- ¿What do you think was missed in the story?

I wish there were more mentions of Saito and Akane's parents.

I would remove the maid from Shisei's house; it seems she's a character who doesn't do much.

I think Maho's attitude was missed a lot.

What do you think about it? Let's see who is the most interesting in their answers in the comments...

You have to accept that the mere concept is already generic as such, but the anime has something that draws attention throughout 12 chapters and that is that it has a minimal bit of plot construction and yes, perhaps the title is already a spoiler of how it is going to end, but to be honest, here it is how they are going to get married if they are supposed to hate each other and the fact is that for Japan it is not a formula that is seen very often, it is always the ones of the shy boy with the popular girl, the other plot where the girl hates until after several chapters she realizes her feelings and goes for the boy, but here the hatred is mutual and that is very clear in a very short time of the first chapter. Also, it is something different since they as such are already married against their will which makes it fun and something different to see how the relationship will be built since the hatred is mutual between both and I say this because if in effect certain points of the story were rushed in both the anime and the light novel the manga has not yet because it has not finished (It has just started to cover volume 8 of the L.N)

And I feel at least another point in favor is that in the anime the interactions in the house were the best and at the same time a little better worked than in the light novel and are at least somewhat faithful to the manga also how both Saito and Akane hid this whole wedding thing from the others

But just as I say the good I also talk about the bad (and is that Akane does not get to fulfill as a Tsundere as such sometimes she is but she becomes annoying and mind you that is the mission of a Tsundere character to become a little annoying only that here she is not as accepted most of the time that was something negative and very wasted and the same with Himari does not fulfill the role of a rival in Akane's love and Saito is just there doing what she wants with the latter but she does not feel like a credible girl is more I think that between her Shisei and even Maho it is not known who is the rival for Akane)

Anyway, I do not know what you think I would like to know if you think if she is generic and Something was wasted here or it is generic, but it is something functional and different at least in these 12 chapters that the anime offers and the first 5 volumes of the light novel that covers said material from the first season.
