Oreshura

(10/10) A romance anime that makes you wish it had multiple endings. The series is a funny harem style romance that focuses on a young man and the struggle he faces when he falls in love with 4 women. The only down side is that he can't chose them all. Overall one of my favorite animes to date. This show will break your heart while simultaneously warming it.

Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru left me underwhelmed and frustrated. I expected a light-hearted rom-com, but got a messy, dragged-out watch instead. Masuzu's forced fake relationship with Eita felt like a lazy cop-out, and her treatment of him was harsh and uncaring. Chiwa, the childhood friend, deserved so much better than to be shafted for the more "popular" girls. Eita's indecisiveness was infuriating, and his inability to make a choice led to unnecessary drama. The love triangles and frustrating characters made for a disappointing watch. The only redeeming quality was the occasional humorous moment, but it wasn't enough to save the series. Overall, I'd give it a 4/10. Not recommended for those seeking a satisfying rom-com.
