Plot

High-school student Hikari Tsutsui is unpopular with classmates for his otaku behavior. One day, he is assigned to pool cleaning duty for being late and is paired with the beautiful but unreputable troublemaker Iroha Igarashi. When Iroha asks if he would like to be in a relationship with her, Hikari turns her down at first, because he doesn't like her at all, but eventually agrees to give it a try. However, there is a catch: Iroha will be moving in six months because of her father's work and she will be transferring to another school.

Iroha is a beautiful girl (considered by Yuto Ito and Sumie Ayado to be "the perfect 3D Girl") but is a well-known delinquent. She initially encounters Hikari after being assigned to clean the pool with him. She begins to like Hikari and eventually agrees to be his girlfriend but tells him she has to move away in six months. She is kind-hearted and takes the relationship seriously and stands up to those who look down on him and their relationship. It is later revealed that she has a brain tumor and requires surgery, later making her gain retrograde amnesia.

Hikari Tsutsui is third-year high school student who has been stigmatized by his classmates for being an otaku. As a result, he isolates himself from the rest, his only friend being the oddball and fellow otaku Yūto Itō. He initially disliked Iroha for being the personification of everything he disliked about 3D girls. Although he initially turned Iroha down, he decided to try a relationship with her.

Voiced by: Shouta Aoi (Japanese); Daniel Regojo (English)[7][8]

She becomes friends with Hikari and Iroha, and when she meets Mitsuya for the first time, she instantly falls for him.

Mitsuya is a popular guy in school, and has his eyes on Iroha. He cannot admit, though, that a guy like Hikari is her boyfriend. One day he sees Hikari helping his sister Anzu stand after falling; he tells her to scream, catching the attention of the police and branding Hikari as a lolicon for days. Iroha found out the truth later through Anzu herself, and they apologize to Hikari.

Voiced by: Reina Ueda (Japanese); Natalie Rial (English)[7][8]

Live-action film

A live-action film adaptation directed by Tsutomu Hanabusa and distributed by Warner Bros. was released in Japanese theaters on September 14, 2018.[1][50]

Reception

In reviewing the anime's first season, Paul Jensen of Anime News Network criticized the animation quality for the first three episodes as "mediocre". However, he praised the storyline and characterizations between Iroha and Hikari.[51] For the final episode, Jensen said that Iroha and Hikari's chemistry was the episode's "saving grace". Although he felt that the season overall "wasted far too much time trying to spice up the drama", Jensen said that it "wasn't terrible, but it never made the most of its strengths".[52]
