I’m genuinely enjoying this series, and looking forward to the anime. Weird that it seemed like for a while the only place really promoting this series was the born-from-RightStuf’s-hastily-discarded-porn-pile BuyAnime.com
TNFWIBYLU plays with one intriguing idea in volume 2, though I’m not sure how seriously it’s going to take it going forward. To wit: while Renako is so determined to be gal pals, Mai asks how different that really is from being lovers. The two concepts have more than a little overlap, and the Renako/Mai relationship drifts into a gray zone between the two, at least for a time. |

Watanare is a lot of silly fun. I've read the first four LN (volume 5 is sitting on my desk) and find the manga version pretty solid also. I'm looking forward to when spoiler[Kaho] is more prominent in the manga.
Of course I've found most people's enjoyment depends on where Mai falls on their tolerability scale. I have different prescription lens for fictional characters than ones I wear in daily life, so I find her amusing. Results may vary, but Ajisai helps ease any bitterness that Mai may induce. Looking forward to the anime. |

Mai's behavior is definitely offputting a lot of the time, but wasn't there like a whole thing where she gets slapped for it and learns to take consent more seriously? Like, it is portrayed as a flaw she has and not something romantic.
...But frankly the way she's such a cartoon character at all times makes the whole thing come across pretty weird. |
