You know, Ruka's got a point: Chizuru likely has a long list of paying customers. She doesn't even need Kazuya simping on her, lol

Imagine the amount of money he would have if he had save it instead of simiping...

Dude could've bought a premium account on the Hub, bought tissues at the dollar store, and ordered a pizza

It's practically Friday night! But NOOOOO.... THAT would make too much sense.

Simping is eternal, money is temporary lol

I still can't believe he has a lot of money to rent a girlfriend

Death is ethernal, simping is temporary just like life.

The true meaning of
Guilty pleasure lol... 😂

Those guys at the back are jealous because kazuya gets to date chizuru

Lol bruh tbh both sound depressing. But at least he'd get a 🥜 and some pizza 😂😂😂

What a cliffhanger the key of mizuhara is gone

Lol yeah but yk dudes not a closer 😂

Damn I think he be one of the richest people in Japan lol 😂.

well if they get along and get together thats worth it. Main point she is not a hoe, now he knows having hard time, she needs money and starting to kinda date lol.
Ruka she just taking advantage of a guy, showing her cutiness and some sexy posture to start his nose bleeding

Well that's a first mizuhara used to be clingy and kazuya thought the mizuhara he knows is strong

We saw the episode

Facts mate would've become a business man like Elon musk of Japan and have a harem of Chizuru Ruka Mami Sumi

you've just triggered a lot of vtuber fans

but he's trying to help her out, I mean for all that she has done for him he wants to return her in some way

yup

Imagine if he just had some balls and applied pressure without being a loser about it. She's given him a lot of opportunities to not be a rent a girl simp. He'd rather blush and yell something cringe 🤣. All the money he gives her could've been several dates and money in his pocket leftover lol

By switching to Gieco , you can save 15% or more

I just want to imagine chizuru spoiled tho , like kazuya did , man has some culture if not anything else ^_^

And yet Chizuru, who is doing fairly well for herself and all, throws it all away, self respect and all, for a guy who stalked her FOR AN ENTIRE *******EPISODE!

Why do people like her again? At best she's overrated it's just Sora Amamiya voicing Aqua as a RAG. At worst she's not that likable either.

out of the 4 she has the most personality and is the most likeable.
Mami is clearly a jealous girlfriend that wants to not see her ex happy with anyone else especially since Ichinose is more beautiful than her.

Ruka doesn't really care about Kazuya. She only does it because he's the only one she found that can make her skip a beat(any guy would work). She says that she loves him but that is also just one sided he doesn't love her She's pushy and possessive.

Pink haired girl(Can't remember her but doesn't matter) she's too shy and has low self esteem and confidence. You could date a brick wall and it would be the same.

OK, I'll you a point on personality, but "most likable"? Is she REALLY though? Her place in the narrative and her relationship with Kazuscum doesn't make a lotta sense, heck, she's the sole reason this anime (and also the manga) is still going; at ANY point she could've ended this "relationship" that only exists for petty reasons, effectively ending this dumpster fire of a story, yet ACTIVELY CHOOSES NOT TO pull the plug, and the idea of her and Kazuscum not finding time to spill the beans is just bull. She's as just unlikable and she's as much as a wet towel as Kazuscum, just more subtle. Even then, how can I buy their relationship when Kazuscum looks at the bodies of his ex, Ruka, and Sumi?

Not even gonna mention the Blond B****.

Ruka, yeah the whole heart thing IS dumb, and by that logic, I could easily jumpscare her and make her heart beat, therefore she falls in love with me. Yeah she's clingy and posessive, but she's at least honest about her feelings, unlike Chizuru, who'd rather take this secret to her grave, taking Kazuscum's money, and is in a fake relationship for petty reasons. Could've just as easily told Grandma the truth in the bath, and yet when Grandma says she wouldn't be mad at Chizuru even if she were lying, Chizuru STILL doesn't fess up!

The pink-haired girl Sumi is easily the best character, because she's actually the ONLY decent person in the show, with Kibe being a close second.

Stop defending Ruka. She may be "honest" but that doesn't excuse any of her actions up to this point (and in the future...trust me she gets much much worse).

Trust me, I haven't forgotten what she's done either. And frankly I don't think I wish to know on what you mean by "much much worse".

She's no saint either, and don't mistake me for defending her because I'm not. Yeah she's clingy, but it's as I said, at least she's more "honest" about her intentions than some girl who only cares for you so long as she's paid. You don't see Ruka running around being obsessed by some guy to the point of being stalked and could've blacklisted him when exposed, or lying to her own grandma.
And honestly, in a MUCH BETTER STORY, a character like Ruka actually could've worked, depending on the execution of course.
Ruka might get a ton flack, but Chizuru's just as bad, if not worse, just in more subtle ways.

Oh don't get me wrong. I'm not a big fan of Chizuru either, especially being a manga reader. I mean...she's the main reason the manga is a shitshow rn. But I'm sorry, even if Ruka is more "honest" she's still worse than Chizuru in my eyes.

I don't think Chizuru realized the extent to which Kazuya stalked her. If she did she would've been way more spooked. Correct me if I'm wrong on that though as my memory is fuzzy from that whole episode (I cringed so fucking hard throughout that entire episode and wanted to forget it existed).

I also don't agree that she doesn't care unless she's paid. She DOES care about people, but like her grandmother said in this episode, she feels like she has to put on "ice armor" to put on a front.

If I'm being honest, it's also definitely not above Ruka to stalk someone either, so there's also that.

Chizuru lying to her grandmother is definitely awful though, and let's just say it will look even worse in the future.

yup my thoughs exactly my friend honestly Chizuru is just the most interesting of the bunch thats why i like her the most Ruka is more or less the normal girl that's new to romance Mami is just a bitter ex that is better off our of the MC's life all together its not the type of person he would want to even stay friends with as for Sumi shes basicly our MC's friends that hepenst to be a girl i cant see her being more especially when the MC has 0 interest in having a romance relationship with her so theres that and all of the fit there rolls perfectly i hope Ruka does find another guy and actually falls in love with him and him loving her back i dont see her keeping this BF/GF status must long with Kazuya especially when even she sees that he like's Chizuru just doesn't want to admit it to herself and move on just yet

Ruka and normal in the same sentence? Lmaoooooo

I guess the catch phrase " love is love" is just BS at this point

Nah Chizuru isn't more likable than Sumi. She has more personality than her though.

Took my like back because the last one mfs make whole anime romances based on that type of character eventually opening up so you kinda wrong there the rest is true

You my man, are a true man. It is good to recognise the quality of a woman from the scenes you see. Only thing I will correct you is that the blonde one is a jealous 'bitch', not girlfriend. Please make sure to put empathy on that. Someone who wishes the misery of the one who SHE dumped is a bitch and nothing more.

You underestimate the power of close proximity and frequency. Through their grandma's, their bound to build a symbiotic relationship. I don't feel like she's fallen for him yet. Just tolerates his behavior for the sake of her nana and the fact that they are living next to each other. In real life, a girl would likely react the same way since she doesn't really know how he would react if she completely ghosts him. She clearly stated that all her money has been going to acting classes so she isn't ready to up and move.

You mean the same grandma's who they could've just as easily spilled the beans, but couldn't because reasons? I don't buy it, I find it hard to believe that neither sent their grandmother a text, or what about when Chizuru and Kazuscum's grandma in the bath? Even when Grandma stated she wouldn't hate Chizuru even if she lied, Chizuru never fessed up.
Also, "symbiotic relationship"? Maybe it's just me, but I wouldn't call them saving each others lives' because love is not how normal people function. And even if it was, why would a hard working woman like Chizuru fall for such a scumbag? What girls have YOU run into where they've done just as you described?

Symbiotic relationship when describing human relationships is synonymous with mutualistic relationship. Again, she hasn't fallen for the MC yet although it's a romcom and all signs point towards that end. I haven't read the manga so iunno what will eventually make her fall for the guy but we're not there yet in the anime

WHOAH! Calm down. Why you hating on an anime and the author as if you're the one paying them? You just watching for free so just watch and stop with the hate and negative comments. If you don't like the male MC then dont watch the show, easy. It's season 2 already and you're still here? You dont like the characters and you still watching and then go to the comment section to complain? You're weird, you need some help, don't take the anime seriously, just enjoy it. If you're not enjoying it then stop. You're not obliged to watch it. Move on to another anime that pleases you. We watch anime to enjoy, relax, please us not to make us negative or a hater.

All I can say as to not spoil the manga is the author is too ‘attached’ to Chizuru and it might be a problem for the conclusion of the manga

I guest you never watch season 1 then

No I did.

I just don't get why she'd fall for such a scumbag.

are you talking about kazia

Yes

okay noah i was going get upset but i think that not good so i just tell you see kazya maybe scumbag but how you ever seen his ex girlfriend, she became a total bitch all of sudden in season 1. There something that alot of people dont know dude even me. So i want to apologize to you for getting upset over something that really stupid and i wont do that again

"Maybe"? No he's a piece of ****.

damn, read the manga, he has grown as a person, and has helped her a lot

He will improve this season. The issue is the lack of progression in the manga.

.....really? "Lack of progression"?

You DO realize the author's clearly only continuing this for a paycheck, right? Or did you forget about Chapter 218?

Yes...that's my entire point? He's dragging this fuckery on and on by baiting people into thinking there will be some progression, only to take 2 steps back again. Chapter 218 is actually a very miniscule part of the issue. Despite how bad that chapter was, there was potential to atleast progress the plot and do something beyond that point...and while it did go forward a bit a few chapters after, literally the next 5 chapters after that progression, all of it was lost and we went back to square one.

but yeah right now he isn't the best in the future maybe I'm not a manga reader though I just watch for the possibilities of shoujo and liking a character
