This isn’t a comfy romcom, and I think a lot of people bounced off it because they expected one.
If you want a show where characters say what they’re feeling right away, problems get talked out cleanly, and every episode feels like progress, this will probably annoy you. People hesitate. They dodge conversations. Tension hangs around longer than it “should.”
That’s not an accident.
This show is more interested in pressure than payoff. It lets situations stay awkward, unresolved, and uncomfortable instead of smoothing them over for the audience. Relationships here don’t magically become balanced or easy just because feelings exist.
The characters are frustrating sometimes — but they’re frustrating in a way that feels human. When you think, “Just talk already,” the show clearly knows tha…

This anime should come with a warning: “Prolonged exposure may cause bleeding ears and emotional detachment.”
Story : 1/10
The premise already sounds like it came from a gacha machine that ran out of ideas : A forced marriage arranged because the grandparents had an unfinished love story? Imagine your grandparents’ failed teenage romance becoming your life sentence. That’s the premise, A “forced marriage” between two people who hate each other because grandpa and grandma never got to smash.
It’s not even bad enough to be funny it’s just confusingly Pointless, The writing tries so hard to be “romantic comedy,” but forgets the “romantic” and completely murders the “comedy.”
Characters Development : - 0/10 (Yes Negative)

This Anime is out of my expectation. Some people seek for am intimate intrict or drama as well as cool action scene, but you can't get along with all of that in this show.
At first, this Anime is for people who are able to laugh at absurdity or shitty things around, this Anime is well-written in basic, the characters are also genuine and feel safe to watch, especially the Main Character, this Anime just dumped all of the hell situation they are in, within an absurdity. However, i found this Anime is for me, especially the peak scene between Himari and Akane in the last eps.
At last, you will know if some Anime are made for you or not, fundemantally, I'm not into absurdity comedy which wrapped with romance genre, prefer deeper story, drama and characters such as Oregairu. Nevertheless, t…

This is such a complete fuck-up that everything that happens on the screen is complete absurdity. If you want to laugh at the cringe and absurdity of what is happening, then this anime will do the trick. AI can't generate such a shitty plot. I RECOMMEND ONLY IF YOU ARE THE SAME CONNOISSEUR (TOTAL IDIOT) AS I AM.
The characters are surprisingly well written, but the situations they find themselves in are horrific.
You might like it if you can laugh at all the bad stuff that's going on there. I love laughing at all the absurdity that goes on there. If you do too, watch it.
Это настолько полный пиздец, что всё происходящее на экране - полный абсурд. Если хочется поржать над кринжовостью и абсурдностью происходящего, то это аниме справиться. Да не могут нейросети генерировать настолько хуёвый…

Honestly this RomCom is a disaster.
Let's start with the MC, a flat character with no appealing with the usual good behaviour who is forced into marriage with one of the most sterotypical tsunderes out here plus we have the gyaru and the Cousin aka your typical imouto.
The plot like i've already mentioned begins when the male MC is forced into marriage with Akane (the tsundere) by their grandparents, this premise wouldn't damage the romcom quality if only the plot wasn't so exagerate in its tropes which is actually what happens and no, it doesn't get better.
Don't waste your time watching this romcom, there are way more better ones out there.

Make characters great again. This rom-com suffers from two bland main characters who fail to carry the show. The female lead is a pseudo-tsundere, offering a watered-down version of the trope, while the male lead is just plain boring. Watching these two interact is like watching paint dry—there’s no spark or excitement to keep you invested.
The characters lack depth, resembling a shallow pool rather than a vast ocean. In contrast, the side characters steal the show with their more intriguing personalities and better chemistry. The anime truly shines when they’re on screen, outshining the leads by a mile.
The writing sticks to tired, predictable "misunderstanding" plot lines that plague generic rom-coms. By the end of the series, nothing meaningful is achieved, leaving you with little mor…

Honestly, I started off kinda enjoying it — the idea of two people being forced into marriage while still hating each other had potential. The tension, the banter, the awkward romance — it was fun at first.
But after that pink-haired girl showed up, it just started falling off hard. The whole vibe shifted, and not in a good way. She felt so out of place and completely ruined the dynamic between the main characters.
And don’t even get me started on the ending... it felt so rushed and underwhelming. Like, all that buildup for this? Bruh.
Overall, the anime had potential but dropped the ball halfway through. Mid-tier at best — kinda disappointed ngl.

It seems that I've been late in giving a review after scoring, but that doesn't stop me now.
The picture is balanced where color and brightness are concerned in this anime, at least to be enjoyed as a meal companion. An interesting premise, plus some characters, makes it an anime that can be quite popularly discussed at the time of airing in its season.
What makes me give it a low score?
It may be quite funny, but after you watch it all the way through, this anime has no clear explanation or narrative direction. Maybe we should look at the synopsis. But not everyone wants to read it, as a result, the early episodes of the anime show the goal but there is no context of where you want to go. And the peak is at the end of the episode. We wonder whether this anime will continue or not, the…

You have already seen this show. It's every other romance with no interesting plot point or character/s to differentiate it. No modern amenities really either, but hey it was cute and I liked it. Don't bother watching it unless it's the only thing left on your list like I did.
MAL requires me to write more to post the review, blah blah blah, plot point is blah, hooplah, girls were alright, mc was mid. blah blah.
Seriously why can I not just post a review with 2 lines that adequately explain the point? Afraid of bots? get real. I can not post the review because it is negative and I did not meet a word count. baby shi fr

Class no Daikirai na Joshi to Kekkon suru Koto ni Natta is a romance/comedy anime that explores one of the most classic clichés of the genre: an arranged marriage or forced relationship between opposites due to an external decision. The story follows Houjou Saitou, a student who, despite being considered a genius at school, later reveals that his intelligence mainly comes from an exceptional memory. Due to a selfish decision made by his grandfather, he ends up engaged to Sakuramori Akane, a classmate who is dedicated to her studies in pursuit of her dream of becoming a doctor (for a deeper reason that wou…

Class no Daikirai na Joshi to Kekkon Suru Koto ni Natta, or “the romcom anime that is 15 years late”... Characters, dialogues, tropes, animation style and character designs, absolutely everything in this anime is dated. So dated I’m starting to think I may actually have been run over by a truck and reincarnated in the year 2010. Jokes aside, let’s review this anime.
-- Boring premise
There’s a lot of anime out there that have an interesting base idea for a plot, but fail miserably in its execution. But as you can see from the synopsis, the plot of this anime doesn’t even sound good on paper. Basically, it’s a high school romcom where the protagonist is forced into a relationship with a girl he hates, but surprise surprise, actually they’re going to fall in love for real. Totally didn’t s…

I think I was wrong to watch this on my TV. I should have seen it through my toilet bowl.
I want to start this with the positive point of the show: the character designs. They are generic but functional. At the end of the day, you'll end up liking one of the girls more just because the design matches your tastes. The problem is that everything is ruined as soon as they open their mouths because the dialogue is so poorly done that no matter who speaks, you only end up generating a certain amount of rejection.
Now for the part that matters to us: everything that's wrong with the anime. Starting with the script, which doesn't meet the most basic points of a romance. The problem with the script is that it never decides whether it wants to be an enemies-to-lovers or a classic school romance.…

This anime has a very promising concept and the first seven episodes really delivered on that; after that, it devolved into nothing more than the worst romcom tropes thrown together into an uninteresting mess that left me infuriated after each episode up until the last one. I actually loved the first episodes and really enjoyed the 7th one. It gave me a genuine feeling of progress, I was left satisfied and I want to genuinely recommend these episodes, which were really fun. Sadly, I hated everything after that.
I hoped for a satisfying conclusion after the last episodes for which I would readily stand these infuriating parts, yet the show left where it started. There was nearly no development in any character at all and I still don't know anything about who and what the male mc actually i…

I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.
Finally, it ended. FFS. This last episode drained me. If someone tells you this is a good show, they are trolling you. Or worse, they are dumb. Knowing how this series is supposed to be and how it actually is, those are two different things. I don't know the sauce, I don't care about the sauce, I'll be talking about this media, the anime. And on paper, this one should've been nice, if not great. But that's not what we got. Why? Well, because this is not a rom-com anime, with character development and such. And why is that a bad thing? Usually, its not, unless you're trying to do a rom-com anime with char development, which they obviously tried. And now, spoilers free.
The visuals are good. More often than not, you'l…

I will be clear. I am not a romcom expert at any means. I dont know why, but this show made me feel... something. It's been a while since I felt something jittery when seeing anime, and most of the episodes made me feel really happy, its weird to describe, but it just clicked on me.
Slight spoilers ahead:
-The only thing i didnt truly liked is the need to make this a semi-harem kinda anime. The male protagonist is clearly interested on the female protagonist, so every other female that's interested in him it wasn't that interesting at all. I just want to see them happy together, man. All the other things are fantastic, i really enjoyed their seeing relationship grow.
Probably I'm scoring it higher than it deserves, but for me this is the case of an anime at the exact point in my life I w…

What a disgrace how this anime turned out. This show is running circles with no real progression happening and then it's finished off with an inconclusive ending, basically back to base 1.
In itself it was a promising anime that could've been much better easily, yet it keeps repeating the cycle of the main couple getting closer then further then closer than further etc. Whenever they are getting closer Akane snaps, gets embarassed/shy and pushes Saito away, this happens every other episode, each cycle being built around some bs trope. Worst of all is that each conflict could be solved in 2 minutes by the characters not bottling up all their emotions or just being less oblivious, this is the worst kind of progression roadblocks, absolutely cheap and unnecessary.
The reason it sucks the mo…

At a glance it might not seem like Kurakon is special. We’ve certainly had plenty of arranged marriage and haters to lovers trope shows over the past few years, but trust me when I say the execution is what counts and this show pulls it off very well thanks in large part to the chemistry between the two leads and the MC, Saito, being an actual normal human being who’s not afraid of girls and isn’t afraid to say what’s on his mind. Almost every story in human history is derivative so it’s all about how you write the characters, the interactions, the story etc., and this show just works for me. I instantly knew from episode 1 that Akane and Saito would be one of my fave ships of the season and 12 weeks later they’ve remained that way. If you enjoy MCs who don’t let themselves get pushed arou…

Rom-coms in latest years have a syndrome of pairing up characters in a relationship while trying to hide their true nature. Such examples include Rent-a-Girlfriend and 365 Days to the Wedding has this as a central plot device. Why do rom-coms like to adapt story in such a way? The answer is simple because there are just countless opportunities for drama and storytelling. Class no Daikirai na Joshi to Kekkon suru Koto ni Natta (I'm Getting Married to a Girl I Hate in My Class) is just the latest example.
The premise brings together a bag of mixed drama containing misunderstandings, heated arguments, and endless amount of character personalities clashes. You know the time when you and a sibling fight over something stupid like 'who has to take out the trash today'? That's the impression thi…

Have you ever had that friend who actually changed the homework they borrowed from you?
Kudos to them for the valiant effort, but here’s the thing: if they have to copy, they're probably not that bright in the first place. Sadly, Kurakon’s author is that friend who will probably get you expelled from college for aiding academic plagiarism.
The assignment is due tomorrow morning and it is already 2 am. Kurakon picked up a dusty copy of “Nisekoi” from a second-hand bookstore this afternoon. No one will remember this old show, Kurakon’s author thinks to himself. But who cares if someone does remember? He has better things to worry about - escaping the authoritarianism of Turnitin similarity checks. If we cannot use synonyms, why don’t we just use acronyms? Just reverse some of the settings,…

I'm Getting Married to a Girl I Hate in My Class — Love 'em or hate 'em, boy, do we sure LOVE the never-ending Nakama power of tropes and cliches. And whatever you do, don't EVER deny your true feelings.
As long as the AniManga medium has existed since the "days of dawn", there'll be the "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatball" type of stories that exist to showcase its potential, yet, like "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice", the tropes and cliches that continue to see the light of day in the modern age, while getting old at best, just do not translate to the success that executives had hoped for in jargon. Yet, in this Winter season, that's exactly the case for novelist Seiju Amano's Class no Daikirai na Joshi to Kekkon suru Koto ni Natta. a.k.a I'm Getting Married to a Girl I Hate in My C…
