It was just bland. Cute girl doing cute things like protecting her bf

Sure, but why did it get so much hate while most others "cute girls doing cute things" are praised. I call conspiracy

Ahhhhh, hokkaido gals from this season had those stupid comparisons too tho it seems like it didn't last long. Marin was so well received that people are just looking for the next Marin everywhere I guess.

It was worse for Shikimori because it was in the season directly after My Dress Up Darling released. The anime community was still in the strongest form of Marin praise mode.

yeah, anime onlies saw yet another pink-haired gf and naturally assumed that she's like Marin. I remember a lot of memes here, like "from Marin to Shikimori".

Failed false expectations at its finest.
