like what if it's like in christmas movies, you are a career woman who is sick of everyone trying to get you a boyfriend. but itoshi sae is also sick of getting question about his relationship status, not exactly the guy with bright smiles who will change your mind about relationships.
nonetheless, somehow the two of you ended up on a dinner together and walked out with not a relationship, but instead a plan and a timeline of a fake relationship for a year. the first month is secret dates that somehow always ended up getting caught red handed by rin—or victim a; third month is moving in; then starting from the eleventh month it will be where the relationship is facing problems. then at the twelfth, the two of will break up and go on with a wound so deep that a new relationship will be impossible for the two of you for a while. it's a plan that you offered with a customer service smile and sae accepted because he is just sick of it all.
and then chats in between the meals happened, sae making sure no one touched in the part happened, sharing black coffee every morning happened, you finding sae's habits and such oddly adorable happened, and sae finding that whatever he is having with you is not bad at all. the oh moment hit. the staring at your back silently with wide eyes moment hit.
so at the ninth month, you decide to sped up the plan a little bit and tell him you will move out. you start this as a mature adult, so you will walk out before you no longer have the will to be one in front of him.
sae is like those christmas movies heroine in some ways. i no longer remember what sort of thought convinced me last 3 am but. he is. and he is a funny guy who i cant think of doing anything if it doesnt benefit his soccer career while also being the guy i really like to put in a domestic setting. probably because he is a family guy in some way???? (honestly i dont know) and then there is my recent obsession with ' i didnt mean to fall in love with you' kinda beat which go hand in hand with fake lovers. i really want this to be fluff full of moments shared together along with the crashing realization (that came twice) of "oh" moment from fake lovers trope. and. yeah im definitely confused but i think i got the spirit.

my new years resolution is that if i see a long discourse-looking post im just scrolling past it. im so completely sick of seeing these long paragraphs of “we have to stop doing this” or “stop misusing this word” or “if you do this you suck” or whatever. were never going to get anywhere with it. i am on this website to see art of my favorite little guys, not pick apart every thing people say and do. idc if the post aligns with my beliefs or not. i will just scroll past it. dont be afraid to do this too

Long ass negative rant about a silly idol game story because I'm annoying and that shit has been eating away at my sanity for this week and I need to get this out of my chest
I had low expectations for the story but man I am still some how disappointed. I have a disdain for alkaloid and Crazy:B constantly mashed together since the abomination that was Romantic?date and the current event is sadly reaffirming that feeling even more.
To start off , while I liked the interactions between some of the characters , in general I felt they were mostly shallow and just felt like they were regurgitating the same constant shitty jokes without developing the existing relationships between them or building up new ones between characters that didn't have the chance to properly know each other yet. (Like for example, personally, I am so so tired of those embarrassing awful cannibalism jokes between mayoi and Niki that their dynamic is mostly based on, especially since that's most of Niki's Screentime in the story) And a lot of interactions just feels like soulless ship-bait that flies by even worse when you hate 90% of the ships they're baiting.(Enstars always had those kinds of moments but there were times when they felt genuine and added at least a bit to the characters and the dynamics between them, while here it's just painful to read) Sometimes I even felt like the characters were basically caricatures of themselves.
Also , the story is currently 26 chapters long with more dreadfully coming soon, but it feels like nothing happened so far which is alarming knowing that we're already 2/3 into the story. After just reading , I barely remember anything that happened besides the awful moments. Nothing feels like it has any significance whether it's to the characters involved or the reader. I mean , going back to the village felt like nothing more than a background change so they can continue doing nothing but in an old house this time instead of a studio as well as an opportunity for aira to be racist again, which shouldn't be the case considering it was the place both Amagis grew up in and have complicated feelings about. Especially for Rinne who was shunned all his life by the village for his status as future "monarch" and for his mindset which led him to run away to the city to pursue his passion of being an idol, so a thing as big as returning there (even if the main immediate conflict was solved by the end of the main story) should hold more weight than him just being a little bit mopey on the way there. Also they straight up just pulled a Turkish drama by introducing some random kid that came out of nowhere just so they'll get some "shocking" twist about his real identity that no one really cares about and that adds nothing to the already existing characters and only takes focus away from them. (Anyways my bet at this point is that he's secretly akanP's son and she's somehow related to the Amagis or even better, she was actually their mom all along or something but I digress) at this point I'd rather hear more about the weird and complicated Godfather nonsense than whatever's going on here
And didn't even get to aira racism. it was already unfortunately established as a character trait for him so it was unsurprising for him to act that way. Even then, him describing his prejudiced views in great Detail was so shocking and tasteless and left a bad impression of the whole story for most even when aira gets reprimanded and scolded for saying such things immediately after because it's obvious that the writer won't put in any effort to make the character outgrow his awful views. So even if we take it in good faith and assume that the writer was intending on mocking and criticizing those views , the whole thing feels tasteless and tone deaf because of how badly written everything is, especially considering Akira's less than favorable track record in handling topics like racism.
All of this is a huge shame considering they actually mention interesting things that they most likely won't bother exploring in the future that would much rather have them focus on instead of whatever we got (like Kaname being mentioned and tatsumi guessing something is up with HiMERU, Niki knowing what cooked human meat smells like which alludes to his father's past which we literally have only been getting crumbs of since the main story as well as Niki's complicated relationship with being an idol and his low self-esteem. just to name a few)
What makes everything worse is for how long the event has been teased and how it has been hyped up as this GRAND FINALE that finally wraps up the alkaloid/Crazy:B plotline. And if THIS is what we get I'm very concerned about what is to come. I know that we're only through 2/3 of the story so far, but I doubt they'll be able to get back up from this garbage this late into the story
I know that I'm writing this in the heat of my emotions and this is all silly and doesn't matter and I'll probably be over it by next week , but it's such a shame to see a series that can do WAYY better sink this low.
