@Lordponczek She is. Even the LN itself acknowledged that the FMC got overshadowed by her best friend lol

They gave Maki a major glowup!!! He's a LOT more derpy looking in the manga, which was kinda the point, since it's supposed to be a romance between two people whose social circles never would intersect because of status.

The girls look a lot different too, to the point of Umi's thumbnail in the video made me think it was a different show altogether. Yuu's OK, but Best Girl Nitta got trashed....😥
