Question to everyone who's read the manga, how's the adaption so far?
I'm a little disappointed. I really enjoyed the chapters of the manga that I've read (I'm not caught up). The manga was super bombastic, and written more like a slapstick comedy than a rom com. Any drama was really overshadowed by the ridiculous characters and scenarios, and that's what made it so enjoyable.
The anime - so far - I feel has messed with the pacing of these events. Admitedly that comes from my reading speed, but I think this material is best done at a (relatively) breakneck pace with a bombastic flare. Think Kaguya-sama or even Aho-girl. This adaptation, however, feels slow and forced and almost completely loses the bombastic nature that I felt was so important. The music choices feel off, the cliché sad music and whatnot just doesn't feel right. Also, what's up with the puppy noises. It feel's like I'm being told what to feel.
For the voice acting, I always interpreted the characters as practically always yelling, kinda like Iida from My Hero Academia. While I think the anime does an okay job at this, I definitely think it could do better.
Tl;dr - I think the anime is treating this too much like a dramatic romcom when it should be more of an off-the-wall slapstick comedy.
