Recently, a pirate anime became known for adding ( Rent A Girlfriend franchise to a separate category: titled "Cringe." This expression refers to "embarrassment, awkwardness, or secondhand embarrassment," and the series joins anime such as Jaku-chara Tomozaki-kun , School Days , and others.
Proven why Rent-a-GirlFriend is so hated and popular
However, there were mixed reactions such as " I expected that ." How is it possible that Kanojo, Okarishimasu is so popular, but at the same time so hated by the community? Reddit user u/Excellent-Release-76 asked this question in a forum and received several answers:
"Many anime fans feel that people look down on them for liking anime because of stereotypes, and seeing something like this become popular 'confirms' those stereotypes, which bothers them."
"It's basically a trashy romantic comedy that became popular. I mean, it has an interesting premise and genuinely good art, plus well-designed waifus, so yeah. There are probably people who project onto Kazuya and get upset about it. I don't know, people who take this series seriously also find it weird. Personally, it's fun to watch the discussion threads and it's really fun to throw shit at them. The series is almost like a shitpost, to be honest. Right now, it's just a sunk cost fallacy and it's funny how bad the show can get."
This is what happens with any low-quality program, phenomenon, or film that becomes popular. It's the whole paradox of "you try to eliminate it completely, but end up revolving your life around it anyway by trying to denounce it."
The main character is a nuisance. He makes all the wrong decisions, cries about it when things go wrong, throws a pity party about how awful it all is, and then does nothing to improve it.
Synopsis:
A 20-year-old university student living in Tokyo. After a painful breakup with his girlfriend Mami Nanami, he decides to rent a girlfriend. He soon finds himself in situations where he has to continue renting Chizuru to keep up appearances with his family and friends.
