Oh so this does get an an anime adaptation. Since I read the manga, I guess I'll give it a shot. I assume it'll likely be one cour.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS! This manga was annoying at first but then I grew to like it!
It's a different kind of shoujo manga.
I can't believe this, another shoujo is getting animated! What a glorious year 2014 is!

This is the type of shojo I don't care for. Will probably skip, even though I try to support stuff aimed at a female audience, the material which glorifies abusive behavior in a romantic interest nauseates me.

Oh c'mon, it's what a manipulator deserves.

This isn't what people are saying of it. The lead male is a cold guy annoyed at the tricks of girls throwing themselves at him. The lead female wants to use him to avoid being honest with her creepy friends. No one in this comes off looking great, but the hero obviously falls for her in the first volume because she's the only girl who's honest with him, but he stays in the role she demands of him to keep in the fake relationship. Then she falls for him in the second volume and she stays in role so she doesn't lose him by turning into one of those fawning girls. So they both wind up being dishonest with themselves and each other, and that becomes frustrating.
And yet it's a good story because how many times do we do that with friends and lovers? I'll enjoy seeing what they make of it in the anime.

Damn straight.
...........why can't NICER shoujo manga out there get anime!? They're so much more deserving. God, this is depressing...

Well....now THIS makes it sound so much like Watashi Ni XX Shinasai and I'd much rather see an adaptation of that.

Anyone who gets involve in a relationship like that deserves what happens to them anyway. So not interested either way.

Who hasn't done that at some point in their lives? Especially when they're young teens like these two. That would be a rare person indeed.
