A Mature Guy in Love With High School Girl, Sounds Creepy , but this Lovely Story Shows Us How This Creepy Turns into A Heart Melting Love Story.

This Anime Show us Age is Just A Number In Love, Whatever the world Says , you gotta Listen To Your Heart .

This Anime Ended in So Sweet Note ,that you Just Smile in the End & Just Bless that Character To Be Together.....

Amakusa Ryo is a young salaryman with a reputation as a lady's man; he will certainly never commit to one woman. Then one day his life is saved by Arima Ichika, a school girl who happens to be in her sister's class at high school... he falls for her but she has no interest in dating this older man. He won't give up though.

This anime series could easily have ended up being creepy due to the age difference but thankfully it turned out to be surprisingly sweet thanks to the way the story plays out. Arima Ichika is a good female lead; more than capable of dealing with Amakusa Ryo's advances. Amakusa Ryo's behaviour may be somewhat inappropriate but he never comes across as threatening. The secondary characters are pretty solid too. Overall I'd certainly recommend this to anime fans looking for a romcom; the story succeeds in providing both romance and gentle comedy without being offensive.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

It's Too Sick to Call this Love. A womanizer fell in love with a high school student who is much younger than him.

This anime was controversial, which made sense because at the beginning our handsome protagonist, Ryo, was pushing and simping hard on our high school girl, Ichika. The large age difference was the main factor that made this anime popular.

However, despite the sensitive topic, I loved this anime and the weird romance. There were plenty of comedic and kawaii moments that started out my Monday mornings in a good mood. The side characters had funny moments of their own, and they all pushed the story forward. Ryo's sister, who was very chill and caring, was a great and wholesome wingwoman.

For a romance comedy, there had to be some drama, and not surprisingly, the major drama here was the age gap. After the first half, the tone of the anime turned serious, and the age gap struggle became more apparent. Ichika and Ryo both had to face the issue and reflect on their feelings and futures by themselves.

Even though the anime is unique because of age gap, the progression was not new and the in last episode I pretty predicted what was going to happen. However, since I'm a sucker for feels-good romcom, I still loved those final scenes and felt very satisfied.

Since the anime is only 12 episodes, there were subplots that were glanced over. The relationship between Ryo and his dad could have been delved in more.

Overall, a lovely and enjoyable romcom anime that dealt with a controversial issue in a more lighthearted way. 8/10.

This is one of them shows that is good because of the side characters. Sure, the mc was interesting as well but I felt more interested in the other characters, they made me laugh and feel. I wouldn't mind another season tbh.

I really like this anime series kyaaaa !!!! I want more than 12 episode 😭.. i just love ryo's character, he was really in love with ichika even tho he has been rejected many times.. but still try really hard to win her heart.. and he wasn't creepy at all he was just super sweet .. !!! Looking forward to a happy ending episode, probably.
