Ayaneru as a gyaru from Hokkaido? I feel like she's played Hokkaido characters before.

From what I've heard of the manga it's fun enough but the plot doesn't really go anywhere?

The latest developments on the romance front definitely had soured the readers, the last time I read it...

I can spoil it for you
spoiler[So far the situation remains: two girls (at least) after the same boy who is unable/unwilling to make his mind up. Ditto the girls, who run away the second he's anywhere near of giving an answer].

Is a little inoffensive romcom with some fanservice, not even near Ayakashi Triangle.

The current plot in the manga is really annoying (see the spoiler posted above), but the chapters that are likely to be covered by the anime are good.

Indeed, it's like the others said. I somewhat enjoyed it at the beginning, but had to drop it last year because it was just getting on my nerves.

I think you’re being a little unfair on the MC there. spoiler[ MC confesses to the girl who he likes. She turns him down for reasons (even though she likes him), and pretty much defriends him. He’s heart broken and when girl 2 confesses he tells her that although he likes her he’s still not over his heartbreak. Girl 3 is currently romancing him. Girl 1 (who likes him) is still ignoring him because she’s a moron, even though she will probably win the MC stakes in the end.]

So yeah, I liked it early on and the art is cool but the FMC is a moron.

At first I thought this manga was a tourism ad campaign.

Imagine my surprise when it genuinely turned out to be a romcom.

I was prepared for the punchline of "it genuinely turned out to be a tourism ad campaign" because it sure works like one, lol.

The spoilers and the fact that Sakura-san is starring reminds of the show "Girlfriend,Girlfriend" in which Sakura-san plays Best Girl.

Anyone have an idea on who will license the manga? My money's on Seven Seas, but I don't think SS will announce it during this licensing cycle, because it seems to be the "shojosei cycle", where the majority they're going to license is either a shoujo or josei.

The manga is a free simulpub on MangaPlus, if you just want to read it.

Started out cute and wholesome, became incredibly formulaic and annoying. Art can also be very miss at time, especially with what is supposed to be "lovestruck pretty faces".
Pass.
