Is this as raunchy as it looks (at least in the source material)?
Also what exactly are oni gyaru and individual gyaru?

Not sure where the "Kakurenbo" title came from, but Japanese sources say the title of the ED is "Aikotoba".

Winter: 55
Spring: 59
Summer: 43
Fall: 43 (as of today)

I'm through the third volume and there's not really any raunchiness other than two attempts to proposition characters. Also, "oni gyaru" is a specific term of address used by one character for a specific reason.

I found using this type of premise in LNs really stupid. Oh, yeah, our heroine is pretty chill in having sex. It will be used for no purpose beides showing even more that MC is your typical romance protagonist who has a whole bunch of dumb reasons for justifing not having sex during the whole story. I get the point of showing that relationships are not just about sex but how it makes the story different from the million other tame romantic stories?

I miss the times when romance series did not put characters having sex as anything extraordinary. You could still find them a few years ago, but nowerdays you see it as either something forbidden or the series goes the other extream and just looks like borderline hentai.

Another cool/gyaru girlfriend Oonishi Saori role for the list... (thinking of Shikimori from Shikimori-san, Akari from Fuufu Ijou)
