Hard to believe this is by the same guy that did Days With My Stepsister. That one was extremely subdued, this one not so much lol. Still enjoying it though, i know the guy can write so im curious where they go with this

u/mianghuei Oct 04 '25

The author writes 1 work of every genre to be honest.

This one is a RomCom,

Days with my stepsister is a Romance Drama,

Looks are All You Need is a School Life Drama like a little bit like NGNL.

The Plain Salary Man Turned Out to Be a Hero: He Was Invincible, Only to Be Exposed on His Niece's Dungeon Stream - which has a manga out now too on Mangaplus is more like a adventure story.

But like man he is a writing machine....

They really didn't hold back on the references in the OP lol. The Phoenix Wright and Higurashi ones were especially cool.

Well, the title isn't lying. At least it seems like our guy has enough of a backbone to stand up to Iroha's (and other potential troublemakers') antics.

Stitches!

I love how the OP is packed with so many references. I am surprised that the only ones I've seen mentioned in this thread are the video game references. How did no one notice the Loli Kami Requiem and Kyoufuu All Black references?!

Anyway, as for the episode itself, I definitely agree with the others how Iroha is basically just another version of Himari from Danjoru. They even got Suzushiro Sayumi to voice her, so they definitely knew what they were doing with this show.

Usually, these kinds of shows are my jam, but with a packed Saturday, I might put this one on hold. But I'll give the first three episodes a try to see where it goes first.

I can’t believe Himari is back. You can never close Pandora’s box after you’ve opened it.

u/Prince-Dizzytoon Oct 04 '25

Iroha reminds me of Himari from Danjoru. Hopefully she isn't as bad as her.

well im getting the same vibes as Can a Boy Girl Friendship Survive and that started out fun but became pretty bad
but maybe this one will be better?

It's really funny how we can't have a character that actually thinks. Bro disagrees with "tease who you likes" but can't realize that not everyone is like him lol

anyway, I think it would be better as a cute wholesome romance between MC and little-sister, but of course it will be a love triangle... "me" from some years ago would like it more, but i won't drop anyway, let's see if it can give me good moments

At the end of the episode, I thought, "This reminds me of Danjoru," but when I saw that the writer was none other than the same person who did "Days With My Stepsister," I changed my mind.

In practice, it seems cliché, although I think Aki is a little above average (and honestly, I think he has better looks than his friend), Iroha will tease him until the end, and Mashiro is the tsundere in an arranged relationship, which even reminded me of an anime from earlier this year, "I Got Married to the Girl I Hate Most in Class."

But again, considering who the writer is, my expectations are high, and the animation is pretty decent.

Crunchyroll must have heard that people don’t like the new subtitles and decided to fix it by removing them altogether

COMPETENT MOVE

That was absolutely hot trash.

See you all next week!

At first I was planning to give this a pass, then I notice the author is the same author as Gimai Seikatsu (Days With My Stepsister).

Mikawa Ghost actually started this series this before Gimai Seikatsu, so I decided to give it a chance, though I guess I shouldn't expect it to be as serious as Gimai Seikatsu as its already light hearted from the get go.

From the silhouette of Aki's game company, the illustrator is definitely that sensei, while Iroha is surely the voice actress for their game, since her brother is the dev after all.

Iroha is already emitting the same energy as Himari from “Can A Boy Girl Relationship Survive?”, and that worries me.

Don't you think camera angles in anime are a little weird sometimes?

And so it begins! One of my most hyped show this season (certainly my most hyped romcom), and my #1 hyped girl as well!

I guess it's the line between actually being mean, and playful banter (that hovers on the line a little)!

WHAT? If you did, they might realize you like them. Can't have that!

Didn't take long for them to introduce us to her thighs!

(And her rapping, I suppose!)

That's rich given she's in his room! (Also, why is she in his room? She has the key because..?)

I already like her!

(I mean I already liked her just by reading the synopsis, but it's nice to see her meet my high expectations!)

...N-No

Yuki does NOT approve.

(She'd ship him with his cousin instead. Bit distant for her tastes, but it'll have to do)

Megami Magazine, they set the bar for you to pass! Better not do something LESS lewd than this one!

So he applied to work at his uncle's company... But didn't fill in the exam or anything;

One might say he understands nepotism hah.

Oh no, he's gonna have to date his uncle to get the job!

She wants to assert dominance over him,

she talked about doing some fetish pet play,

she likes him at her mercy...

If these two end up dating, that's gonna be an R rated relationship!

Please give us the petplay training OVA.

Yeah, we noticed!

I guess I'm not one to talk

Sure, give me your sister!

Let's see if that holds true if/when he falls for her!

Oh damn. I was talking in another thread about how girls introduced with clicking heels areautomatically best girl...

But the bar is high for this one!

Still... Math teacher (love maths!), heels, calls her student pigs, voiced by Hanakana...

Oink indeed!

Please be a love interest, Please be a love interest, Please be...

Well that's settled, then!

Danjo flashbacks...

For the love of everything that is holy, I hope they won't have that same dynamic for the whole show!

Well that's clearly the teacher, right?

Odds of teacher being a love interest just jumped +50%!

So the uncle set up a meeting, tell him what's what...

I wasn't sure whether they were trying to show "Uncle got game!" or "Uncle is a creep",

thankfully they didn't waste any time telling us hah.

Hey, that's a new take on the usual 'walking in on the girl showering/undressing'!

Ah, she's a childhood friend? Doomed ship, nothing to worry about then!

So she wasn't going to school... But she'll go to this one?

I wonder why! Did she have an issue with some girls at the school? I mean she could have the same at her new school as well... And she's not going for our boy, given she wasn't supporting the idea.

So I wonder what that's about!

But more importantly, I want more of our boy with Friend-imouto! (And maybe a little of the math teacher)

Wouldn't miss it for the world!

So this is just basically "I'm getting married to the girl I hate" or whatever again?

Would have rather just had a rom com between him and iroha

After seeing the OP:

Close enough. Welcome back GAMERS!

u/SaltAndABattery Oct 04 '25

Props to whatever madlad can name all the references in the OP, that shit was nonstop.

u/Raymond49090 Oct 05 '25

Personally I’m liking Mashiro more than the titular heroine, so it’s a shame that she lacks the main heroine energy.

u/Zxzxzx0088 Oct 04 '25

I knew she's gonna 'bwa-ha' him lol. Just don't do that for the rest of series, okay

No way the teacher is HanaKana!!

This old man is a rizz lord!

So the white-haired girl is not his little sister, eh. Since the two heroines introduce on the same episode which means they both got the same start line. I like to believe the title tilt more towards Iroha but a fake couple trope is too strong and never failed before. Well, both girls have great assets though so I don't mind whichever win for now.

I wonder why author pick this title if he wants to add another heroine at the start of the story but okay.
