3.76 AVERAGE


I honestly haven't finished reading this volume of the manga. I'm on chapter 21 as of writing this review. I just had to take a moment to say fuck me. 

I'm literally only reading this series as an endurance test through hell. So here I am to say, this volume gets one star because we're not even 20 chapters in this bitch and I had to witness our female lead get sexually assaulted by our main doucebags shitty fucking grandma while being told how many children she should have. 

It wasn't even 9AM and I needed a drink. May all the gods help me because I'm not tapping out yet. 

It seems to get better with each book.

A new player enters the game!

This one is actually more sweet than last two volumes. Kazuya finally realizes he might not like Mami as much as he thought. Instead he finally realizes he might actually like Chizuru more. So he tries to figure his feelings out and begs her to be his rent-a-girlfriend some more. But then a new girl enters and she might have her own secret!

This is sweeter volume which I liked, and also pretty funny at times. It really helps the art is some fantastic stuff with great comedy moments. I'm really starting to like Chizuru more and more as a character and feel her trying her hardest to make it.

Overall, another really fun and solid volume. I'll be continuing to read this one. A 4 out of 5.

I don't know what it is, but this volume was kind of meh to me. Mizuhira continues to be best girl, as you do, but honestly she was the best part of this whole volume. Kazuya declaring that he wants to change is great and all, but he doesn't have a game plan on how to do so and it really shows. Also, the accidental pervert scenes with him and Ruka were so unnecessary. I know this is an ecchi series, but if he's going to have moments like these with every significant female character my brain might explode out of frustration. Speaking of Ruka, I don't particularly like her (all she really did was be loud and obnoxious to Kazuya) and I'm sensing her inclusion is just to offer the "bad" side of rental girlfriends. Hopefully her character will grow on me, but I have my doubts.

So, yeah. Those are my thoughts. I'm praying volume 4 will be better because I do think this series has potential, but unfortunately this was pretty underwhelming.

That revelation at the end wasn't all that surprising, but I can't deny that I want to know how far this is going to go.
