      I was caught up on the manga until very recently when I quit over it still leading nowhere
      Also it has gotten very… preachy?
      How do you do spoiler tags… This is the memes community, right? How do I check their sidebar from the draft screen on Summit…

      I wonder if they’re getting some of that federal population-encouragement money because half of it is “wash your balls, man up, take her to this very specific theme park and do these rides in order and this is what healthy eye contact looks like” and half “tune in next time for a continued absolute lack of momentum”

      Sidebar says we’re good

        I mean the whole premise is a blatant metaphor for prostitution because they were too cowardly to just make it prostitution and then the author literally physically changed the MC to more closely resemble him.

        You can’t say you weren’t warned.

      A lot of thirsty boys and a lot of archetypes to create fantasies for? (I don’t know, I haven’t watched it)

        The thing is, it was actually kinda sweet how S1 went and seeing the (albeit totally not new) idea of a (borderline) sexworker love story in anime was cool (among other things), but then comes S2 and I was like: WTF?! Did they just completely reset the relationship between the two main characters for some arbitrary reason? It just made zero sense to me and there was no indication of it getting any better.

        The show was basically over for me after S1. I’d say that is worth a watch if you like romcoms. But you can really just stop there, call it 7-9 / 10 and leave.

      Wouldn’t even start watching if I knew there would be [more than] 4 seasons of it. Dropped it at start of S3 I think, don’t remember, don’t care. If not for FOMO, Touyama Nao, and this handsome fish, I would have dropped it sooner.
