    Best Anime I have ever seen

    Season 1 one was good but Season 2 was epic x 100. Best thing about anime is I felt emotion which I haven't felt in any other anime. This anime became my one of my Fav anime.

    A Hidden Gem Uncovered

    Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend - where do I even start? I went in expecting a generic rom-com, but what I got was a beautifully crafted story about creativity, passion, and finding your purpose. Tomoya's journey from a bored otaku to a driven creator resonated with me on a deep level. And Megumi? She's not just a 'boring' girlfriend, but a complex character with her own struggles and growth. The supporting cast is equally lovable, and the animation? Stunning. I laughed, I cried, and I cheered them on. If you're looking for a heartwarming, inspiring anime, Saekano is a must-watch. 10/10 recommend!!

    A great watch

    This is one show that will truly make you feel emotions you haven't felt before in any other anime. The S1 was good but S2 is like a blast. This is the best harem anime I've seen. There will be many moments in the anime which will leave you very emotional.

    A must-watch if you love Harem.

    Self aware romantic comedy!

    (9/10) Not your average harem anime, a story about a group of creatives, their muse, and the journey to create a story so stunning it redefines a genre. This anime is full of moment that will put you on the edge of your seat eager to see what happens next. The combination of the characters snide remarks yet the the ability to put everything aside for a freind makes you feel like you're there with them making their ups and down that much more impactful.

    Review By Kamal K

    dreams and goals you wanted to achieve when you get older. The anime tells the epic adventure it took our MC, Tomoya Aki, to achieve his goal of creating a game, complete with all the girl problems, and sexual harassments he receives each day from his devious co-workers.

    While I was scrolling through the notoriously long new anime section of an unnamed website "how to raise a boring girlfriend" caught my eye, then I thought to myself "better take some notes." At first glance Saekano looks like an average rom-com anime, and being your normal rom-com lover I decided to give it a try, and let me tell you I was definitely in for a treat. Saekano is one of those anime's that you just can't get enough of, not a single episode has left me without tears rolling down my face from laughter.
