I Want to End This Love Game #1 — Fan Reactions: The childhood friend doesn’t want to lose SUMMARY. Ngl, watching these two overthink their childhood friend dynamic is pure brainrot, but I’m totally here for the sugar rush.

Commenter

Omg finally this gets an anime adaptation, I've been following it since day one so I'm lowkey emotional rn…

Commenter

Why is the residential area aerial CG rendered way too detailed lmao

Commenter

Kinda rare for an anime to start with a bird's-eye view of the town.

Commenter

Hey, I love you ♡

Commenter

Bro's playing the Switch fr

Commenter

Wait, Miku is voiced by Miku-nene? (Miku Itou?)

Commenter

Green uniform + smile = perfection

Commenter

Doing this for 4 years, you guys are practically married already lol

Commenter

So happy it's a HoneyWorks-style anime, feels just right

Commenter

So thankful to live in a timeline where CHiCO with HoneyWorks exists

Commenter

OP by HoneyWorks is honestly overkill, absolute banger

Commenter

Lol not Takehito Koyasu again 😂

Commenter

That was actually kinda cool ♡

Commenter

Wait, a Takehito Koyasu character who ISN'T the villain?!

Commenter

Lowkey more distracted by this blonde clerk ngl

Commenter

Yukiya, dude, you've already lost haven't you

Commenter

Is that really your honest feeling lmao

Commenter

Is this ASMR or an anime

Commenter

Bro really paying attention to body lines like that?

Commenter

Junior high uniform flashback let's go!

Commenter

Cute JK is life!! JK is fine too!! The novel adaptation is on point, absolute peak!!

Commenter

Where do you even find a middle schooler this cute irl

Commenter

Giving me major Teasing Master vibes ngl

Commenter

Doing this for 4 years straight is wild www

Commenter

Well well, look who we have here~?

Commenter

Bro's doing some Ring Fit stuff w

Commenter

Thinking a new hairstyle is gonna change anything lol

Commenter

So embarrassing lmao

Commenter

Wait, is that Saitama-Shintoshin?

Commenter

Stop with the sudden ikemen Koyasu voice www

Commenter

With Takehito Koyasu as CV, he's definitely gonna call someone "kitties" or something

Commenter

Love it, they adapted the manga straight up, huge W!

Commenter

"Were you looking at me with those kinds of eyes? Gross…"

Commenter

Using shoujo manga as a reference is a bit sus tho—

Commenter

Given that Koi-Kyun took 18 volumes just to say "be mine," this might be Kanokari levels of slow burn

Commenter

Guess the green uniform is why she's so cute after all

Commenter

Spending 2 whole hours getting ready tho

Commenter

Bro was fully prepared for this too

Commenter

Taking 2 hours just to get ready… Is she too cute or what

Commenter

Honestly, no matter what people say for a bit, just confess and start dating already, that's literally the optimal play. This kind of game is winner-takes-all anyway… (though the story would end right there 🤣)

Commenter

Super high tempo right out of the gate, that's how the champs do it

Commenter

Straight from the manga, ultra-cute JK is top tier 🩷

Commenter

Both of them are kinda high maintenance ngl

Commenter

Yukiya calling her "cute" after all that effort… You better step up man

Commenter

Fake it till you make it with those chest pads!

Commenter

Random CG moments popping up here and there

Commenter

You guys better get to school already wwww

Commenter

Won't she be shocked if you suddenly pop it in?

Commenter

She's literally a public indecency offender lmao

Commenter

TIL how girls fold their skirts from watching this show

Commenter

Seriously, get to school already wwww

Commenter

Can't blame the little sis for snapping when they're flirting right in front of the house forever

Commenter

Little sis has it rough fr

Commenter

Little sis! Wakana Maruoka as Asagi Wakana let's gooo

Commenter

Well, to be fair, the girl was pressing the attack hard there

Commenter

Wait, the little sis goes to a different middle school? So Yukiya and Miku weren't even at a public school…??

Commenter

Bro just go to school already

Commenter

If you guys stop walking you're just gonna start flirting like outside the house again, keep moving!

Commenter

Animation quality for episode 1 is actually solid ngl

Commenter

Decent first ep. Wonder how far the anime's gonna cover

Commenter

The staff credits are full of Chinese and Korean names… Ah right, it's a Squid Game world after all (; 😉

Commenter

You know you're happy about it—

Commenter

Reading the source material makes it so chill to watch since I already know what happens. First-timers must be dying of cringe rn (though I was dying while reading the manga too)

Commenter

Just date already!

Commenter

All they do is delusions fr

Commenter

This whole anime would've ended in one ep if either of them just admitted it

Commenter

I mean seating is probably by attendance number for now, but they'll def end up next to each other soon. Probably in the same committee too

Commenter

Character designs are cute so it's good. But… are we really gonna watch this much fluff for a whole cour??

Commenter

So cringe, way too cringe! www

Commenter

Watched ep 1~ These childhood friends are way too sweet 🥰 Total sugar overload 🩷 Miku's aggressive moves (especially the skirt-shortening part 👍) had me grinning from ear to ear ⤴️⤴️🥰

Commenter

PompadollS still slaps even as a trio. The anime is giving me all the heart-fluttering vibes!

Commenter

Okay I learned that if Akira Miku does this, she wins the game instantly

Commenter

Was smiling the whole time because it's too cute. So good… definitely looking forward to this season the most

Commenter

Wakana Maruoka in the next episode preview sounded almost exactly like Yuki Suou from Roshidere lol

Commenter

Omiya Park footbridge and Saitama-Shintoshin actually made an appearance 🤔

Commenter

Ending of "I Want to End This Love Game" #1 "The Childhood Friend Doesn't Want to Lose" — Miku moving around just made her even cuter, absolute peak!!

Commenter

Looks like I can just sit back and giggle at these two flirts without any stress. Definitely gonna watch every week

Commenter

The latest-starting new anime of the season lol

Commenter

Sunday-magazine style romcoms really shouldn't be underestimated… Next week!
