One Episode out.
It's Teenage Romance, aimed at adolescent Kids.
Real life has nothing to do with it.

You listed all the things the Episode was going for, point for point. You know what they're building. They just haven't build it yet. It's Episode 1.
OR you just saw through it, already. Who knows.
Suspension of disbelief, my guy. How do you enjoy ANYTHING with an attitude this nitpicky?

Yes, there will be some stereotypes and cheesy Moments in this.
Deal with it.

As a manga reader, I can just say this: give the anime some time. It's only one episode (about 2 chapters of the manga), and this anime is far from over. I might spoil things for new otakus, but there's a reason why this manga is so popular.

so don't get disappointed from just one episode

I've read the manga and I think most of the events are very convenient, the romance drama became annoying as the chapters went on.

But NO ONE in real life would talk badly about the protagonist of this anime, no one. No one would look at someone with his appearance and build and think he's weird, evil, ugly, or anything like that.

But the anime's narrative needs to force an unrealistic drama so the otaku can wrongly identify with it and feel hurt along with the character.

It's kind of funny, the anime tries to present the boy as someone "misunderstood" and with low self-esteem at the same time that he's surrounded by friends and a seemingly good, understanding family. So… huh? Where exactly is this personality coming from?? In practice, from nowhere. Because to justify it, autor uses the laziest possible device: random crazy shadow people spouting nonsense in a completely unrealistic and senseless way.

It's almost like a version of the "Ugly Betty plot paradox" a central contradiction in the narrative: the story wants to avoid real, grounded drama that would require giving up some of the character’s positive traits, but it still depends on that kind of drama to function.

So it does things like: making the guy seem like someone who gives off a bad impression for looking grumpy and intimidating, while in practice he’s not drawn that way at all.

Wants us to believe he’s a misunderstood guy, while also showing him surrounded by friends and family who clearly understand him.

Wants to create conflict and put him in a pitiful position, but doesn’t want to give him any actually negative personality traits, so it invents these "random evil crazy people" mistreating him out of nowhere, which is absurdly unrealistic.

(ps: yeah, I know that some of these people are "arrogant teenage girls from a rich school", but even that is a cheap writing choice. Like, come on man, a school rivalry "divided by gender and social class"? What is this bullshit, a shoujo from the 80s?, No teenager actually cares what school another teenager goes to, for god's sake, this isn’t Imperial Japan)

Everything has to be 100% pleasant and contradiction-free so what you end up with is an anime that refuses to challenge the viewer in any way.

I like good romance anime, I don’t want to sound like a hater. I was looking forward to this too. But this first episode It really annoyed me, the girl is so cute and pretty, perfect, and obviously she’s going to have zero flaws and also be the victim of random crazy people, that for a moment I almost just let all this lazy writing slide right past me.

@Power013 Honestly, I don't think the manga is that good. I remember when I was around chapter 80, I started to feel like I was wasting my time and stopped reading, but I want to continue the anime just so I can see Kaoruko in animation.

I could buy people having misconceptions about the main character because he happens to have a rough look and be from somewhere that seems to have a reputation for being violent. It was a bit exaggerated, but not too unbelievable. For me, it's more the way the girls at the rich school all hate everyone at the poor school so much and openly treat them so badly with no provocation that felt really forced and overdone.

Is this serious? If so, most drama anime wouldn't work.

The protagonist's social insecurity comes from everyone being afraid of his height, no matter if he has a good family or if he is handsome or rich, insecurity does not choose classes or appearance, maybe you just thought too much and ended up getting lost in your own thoughts, or it's simply not for you. So stop watching, it's better than questioning things that sometimes don't have an exact answer, emotions sometimes to observe from the outside maybe don't make sense but these things when they are standardized and reproduced several times do create this kind of drama, especially when the person is still a teenager. So yes the drama makes sense, you just didn't like the anime and created this comment to try to create a situation that is "a flaw" when in fact it's just not to your taste.

listen you don't know these types of people really do exist, even my highschool had a boy(I don't remember his name) the whole school had stereotypes about him like- he would hurt anyone except his close ones and friends, they said that he was really really aggressive also that he liked to hurt people mentally and physically, he was good looking but even then he rumours like these about him. I did met him once and talked with him he was lowkey a chill guy who had friends too. so if this can happen to a single guy I can't see why this can't happen on a larger scale. please don't hate this anime, this is only the 4th anime in which I have giggled this much to myself in the first episode so just because we have not experienced the things that the mc has doesn't mean that we should hate the anime or say it's unrealistic so please refrain from commenting about it.

It may seem exaggerated from a viewpoint of a viewer of the show, because we know that rintaro is a good person, but the discrimination that we see toward rintaro is not only because of how he looks, but because of how he act. We’ll later see that at one moment, he did stop trying to make friends and was cold toward others.

But yeah… I know that it may seem a little exaggerated, but that’s just for us to get the moral of the story easier, trying not to judge someone from how he looks will always be a good moral, no matter how simple or exaggerated they may show it in a story.

Maybe a little exaggerated but no nonsense, seen a 1,90m guy, with died hair, piercings and from a school that has a reputation of having delinquents, being judgy about that… I totally get the reaction, but the important thing is not the reaction, but why to get over that and try to know someone despite their looks.

But this is just the firs conflict that we have in the show, they’ll get over it really quickly, and we’ll be facing much deeper and complex conflicts, which I’ll say are much more relatable with us, like not knowing what to do in your future, what ur gonna study, what university you’ll get in, and how that may affect the way you interact with others.

I’ll say that this show has a really good writing, way beyond avr romcoms, that 8.83 calcification that the manga has is not because just a “scary” mc and people being scared of him, so chill out, theres only 1 episode out and the story is just gonna go up from now on.

If you want a show that does not exaggerate the problems and reactions of the characters, while having plot that moves fast enough for us to get everything in just ONE EPISODE…. Idk what you are looking for… Boku no hero?? Nah.

Nah what doesn't make sense is the insane 8.9 score.

I know we're only one episode in, but wow was that the most generic piece of crap I've seen in a long time. Rarely do I guess every beat, but somehow I was able to with that episode.

Also, she's never had a guy stare at her before? REALLY? And he's a tall handsome man, and not even a single girl has been nice to him?

7 at best. Seems like manga fans came in and caused some seriously inflated expectations by rating it so high.

You're too old for this man, this anime clearly aimed for teenagers audience. If you're like 20 or 25 years old like me then yeah I think it's safe to assume this anime is not for you.

I also couldn't bring myself to enjoy this anime as much as people did but yeah it's probably because i'm too old for this show.

Go read 'Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece' If you like webnovel with historical, military and kingdom building genre.

Ever seen Toradora or Kimi Ni Todoke? Aside from that though, this does happen in real life. It may not be super common but I've known a couple of guys in my 30 years who dealt with the same thing. Some of us got to see they were actually good guys but most people judged them by their appearance and made up a lot of stories. Just because someone looks a certain way doesn't mean they're bad or violent.

At the end of the day, not everything we watch has to be realistic. Most anime is highly unrealistic. There's plenty of anime/movies/shows/etc. out there that are simply for entertainment, not for people to relate with. If you're looking for something deeper, there's plenty of slice of life out there. Check some out and see what floats your boat.

I guess it's the typical female fantasy: a 6'3" model-looking guy is rejected and needs to be saved by the female lead. It's exactly the same as the trope of the antisocial guy and the popular high school girl.

My problem with the series lies in the idealization of its world and its fake innocence. It's fine for the characters to be kind, but it's taken to such an extreme that it feels superficial, and the characters act like robots programmed to apologize for the smallest things.

Just hear me out, there are actually people who get judged on the basis of how they look even in the real life. Just because you have a family (and so far we have only seen his mother) and a few bunch of people who supports you doesn't mean you wouldn't feel bad about others misjudging you on the basis of how you look.

Moreover, He is still a teen so yeah you are just applying an adult thinking over a teenager who usually overthink a lot and are judgemental about literally anything along with lack of maturity. So the drama is definitely not "unbelievable". I could have understood if you pointed out Waguri as over expressive.

Anyways it was just the first episode so wait until we actually go more into depth of his character.

ok, so let's get this straight out of the way: What kind of drama do you want? Is it he said, she said? or some crazy ass life-threatening situation that drastically affects the main couple? either way, you have a pool of manga and media to absorb.

Then again, having low self-esteem is NOT a negative trait ig. You need to understand that even in RL their down to earth people with close to zero hostile traits written on their face.

As for the discrimination part, let me ask you a question: Would you rather buy food for a street vendor or a restaurant? Maybe that street vendor doesn't use any chemicals or added color in his food, but how would you know? This might seem silly, but your appearance is the first thing people judge on you.

Then again, this is a work of fiction, so we do not need to compare it with the real world.

Well Japanese people are one of the most polite people in their public behavior who often use "Thank you" and "Sorry" so that's one thing. Moreover, I don't think if we have seen anyone too innocent here so far besides Waguri.

I don't think if it ever tried to show idealistic approach so far, understandable if you are talking about particular character. Also, Rintaro has reputation of delinquent so he is definitely not a model-type, more like "I can fix him" fantasy.

@Aritree It's more common to see this kind of behavior when the girl is super attractive or a model. There was a girl in my class who used to be a model, and I met her back in high school. She was way too physically developed for her age—not only was she constantly harassed by the boys, but she was also ostracized by the group of girls. It was common to hear rumors that she was a slut and disgusting comments driven purely by envy from the other girls. That girl went through hell, and most of the time she sat alone at her desk. Now, it seems like she's doing well, and I'm really happy for her.

Now, can that happen to a guy? Maybe—but I doubt a male model would be seen as someone threatening. Most likely, he’d be praised for his looks and height.

Lastly, in Japan, anyone with dyed hair is often looked down upon or seen as a delinquent. Maybe that's all there is to it, haha.

although its not peak rom com as people were saying but it's a good watch ( from 1st ep).

and i hope it is explained why waguri was so flustered after seeing rintaro, why did she seems to have feeling for him, why would she have sudden feeling for him as shown in last scene where she opens the curtain of class window to see him(although there may be other reason)?

Imagine hating hating on an anime after just one episode without having learned anything about the characters background or how the plot develops.

Idk what types of shows u lot watch but here we actually have something called growth and and progression that will go way beyond "why they scared cuz he's tall? that's stupid".

I can only encourage to keep watching and if it's not for you then it's not for you. But don't give us that shit after just watching one ep and going "how did that get an 8.9?.

Obv we manga readers already know what awaits us and thus the score is that good.

Do you know the significance of “anime”? It’s pure fiction, it has nothing to do with real life situations. That’s why, in anime, authors can create everything they want, because it doesn’t have to respect the real life.

I don't know why are you being so hyper. no one here is judging the anime just discussing things that seem wrong in ep 1. No one is saying this anime is trash just saying that some scenes seem to forced. that's all. We are still saying it deserves 7.5 from ep 1. but not 8.9 for first ep

@supremeone55 yeah think I overdid it a bit, but my point is that the 8.9 doesn't necessarily come because the episode really was an 8.9 but mostly from us manga readers already knowing this is gonna be good so we give it a good rating. And here u got people calling it a "piece of trash" cuz of one episode where u haven't got to know any of the characters or the development of the plot. Do they expect a 1st episode on the level of SAO or AOT or what idk. Just wait and let it ripen a bit yk what I'm sayin

Honestly.....so what? I could say the same about being tired from all the stupid isekai or mappa shows and so on....Every anime but few are cliche, its just how it goes. Its very hard to find a good and sweet romance anime these days without it being cheap romcom or a harem or have very boring visuals. As a anime only I have same feelings about this anime as I had with Horimiya and therefor I am really looking forward into it. Sometimes you dont need complex story for a good anime and enjoyable time. I just want something that "feels" nice is a bit different. I trully feel sorry for the people who can’t enjoy something without analyzing the f out of it

Idk why no one’s pointed this out just yet in this thread but in Japan (or at least in anime from what I’ve seen) having blond hair and piercings are massive red flags for delinquency, and being that tall and having narrow eyes is supposed to be scary and/or ugly. He genuinely is quite frightening, and I figured if I suspend my disbelief for how exaggerated it is it makes sense how all these middle class rich high school girls (cuz if it’s the norm then high schoolers will act like sheep to fit in) would act really negatively to him and anyone like him. Or how anyone on the street would find him scary at first glance.
That kind of reaction just to your presence builds up after a while. Of course the poor kid feels misunderstood.

This is kind of a weird take. Even just looking at the poster, it's pretty obvious that this is a typical "wet dream of a 15 year old teenage girl" type of story. What did you expect from this?

Give it time, the anime only will have their TRUE opinion come and the rating will adjust...its just mainly the manga readers hyping up the score now

although its not peak rom com as people were saying but it's a good watch ( from 1st ep).

and i hope it is explained why waguri was so flustered after seeing rintaro, why did she seems to have feeling for him, why would she have sudden feeling for him as shown in last scene where she opens the curtain of class window to see him(although there may be other reason)?

@supremeone55

Knowing these types of romance animes...we could be waiting a LOONG while before any of those questions get answered

Imagine hating hating on an anime after just one episode without having learned anything about the characters background or how the plot develops.

Idk what types of shows u lot watch but here we actually have something called growth and and progression that will go way beyond "why they scared cuz he's tall? that's stupid".

I can only encourage to keep watching and if it's not for you then it's not for you. But don't give us that shit after just watching one ep and going "how did that get an 8.9?.

Obv we manga readers already know what awaits us and thus the score is that good.
You could have figured that out with 2 seconds of thought but yall just over here ragebaitin or smt idk

As a huge fan of romance, I agree with you. I’m 26 now and I am just fatigue of all the obvious cliches and high school setting. It’s just not our target audience.

@Souljasleet

I agree with ya old man...but I guess we can't help but have our "guilty pleasures" eh sonny?

I agree. It's contrived. I'll keep watching and see

It's a really good and popular show if you see people whining about it after the first episode.

The melodrama in this anime doesn't make any sense
