6.07 minSeason 1 • Episode 8
LatestMarika, Toyotomi, Mikasa, and Niino's lovemeters go on a rampage! I feel like I'm being suffocated by all these lovemeters... Just as I thought hard for everyone not to fight over me, I get baptized by the lovemeter only I can see, and I'm on the verge of death. Somehow I manage to confess to Marika, saying she's the one I truly love, but... With that, Marika's lovemeter goes even more completely haywire???!!
Now I can see how much my crush likes me. I lack the courage to confess to my childhood friend, Marika. One day, I make a strong wish upon a shooting star: To read someone's feelings like in a dating sim. The very next day, much to my surprise, that wish came true…?! Lovemeters now appear over the girls in my class. Confused by this surreal sight, I check Marika's, only to find her meter's plummeted to the rotten depths of hell...?! Marika, if you hate me, then why were you always so kind...? What are Marika's hidden true feelings? Does she really hate me, or...?!
Acting
Maaya Uchida's voice work sells Marika's chaotic hidden depths.
Writing
The premise commits so hard to its own absurdity it loops back to charming.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Based on a manga by Shimesaba, whose username literally means 'mackerel'—peak internet anonymity energy.
The 'childhood friend loses' trope is so baked into anime that a series where she MIGHT win feels almost rebellious.
