I love the anime mostly but I am inclined to agree.

It goes like:
Character A: I'm sorry
Character B: Huh?
Chatacter A: I'm so sorry!!
Character B: Oh. It's fine I wasn't bothered
Character A: I apologize here is a gift!!
Character B: I-I am sorry too!

And it just goes round and round for like 4 minutes....

@AlexGK I don't see how this anime is better than shows like Kaguya Sama tbh
@The_Spectre_01 I don't know, I dropped Kaguya, I don't like plots like these where we are constantly circling around a confession.
I like actual relationship development.
Wasn't that funny for me as well.

Maybe I should give it another chance at some point :)

I'm only on Episode 3, but I like that about the show.

We could all be apologizing and thanking others more. Over the years people online seem to be getting meaner and more stubborn. It's like no one can admit they were wrong or they messed up. Never back down, never apologize, deny everything, take everything.

Fair point about repetition, though, the writers should be working to avoid that.

I don't care about it. Because this is the cutest romance anime ever with better animation than most shitty Isekai anime and other generic shit.

Still considering if I should pick up Angel Next Door again. Should I read volume 5.5? Should I drop after volume 7 as recommended by other romance fans? Hard decision~


Follow this reading order and your experience will be better =)

The main story of Roshidere is the student council president election, something I still don't care about in volume 10.

Roshidere is basically a copy of Classroom of The Elite but with romance sprinkled in it then, that kind of melodrama doesn't fit for a show that was meant to be a light romcom...

I think Roshidere sells well because of publisher's marketing.
Kadokawa titles tend to sell much better.


They did a lot of promos, taking into account the LN had high sales and Roshidere was animated by Doga Kobo so expectations were sky-high; but fans were disappointed because the story didn't align with the expectation in the end. I don't know if you care about its rating but the constant decline should reflect how overrated this show is. It's currently rated 7.57 and will drop further unless the show redeems itself in S2.


To the OP: I'm not a manga reader, but it's kind of a part of the work identity indeed. It doesn't really annoy me because it's to portray how polite and respectful the characters are to each other, and I prefer that compared to more toxic dynamics in other series.

Currently at Angel Next Door volume 7~

I heard that volume 7 and 8 are the weakest volumes, is it true?

I got really bored in volume 7 until Amane's mom appeared. :/
I heard that the story goes in a different direction after volume 8.5. Some readers mentioned that it is fresh read while there are readers mentioned story gets worse. What are your thoughts on it?

Considering if I should continue reading or drop Angel Next Door? I still have a ton of romance novels I need to catch up on~

Part-Time Housekeeper is the next big romance light novel, but I have only read the first volume. XD

@NewestPersonHere Just a little more and you'll eventually read volume 9, Mahiru's 17th birthday and that's the peak of Angel Next Door~



I've cried in happiness after reading it, and I love this series more than Roshidere where they're dragging things out with some generic presidential election plot and still no romantic progression... No wonder why 70% of the fanbase says it's worth sticking around just for Yuki already.

I have an opposite thought - people in real life need to tell thank you and sorry more often.

I really don't see anything wrong with that to be honest.

It's normal to express gratitude when they feel thankful and also it's normal to apologize when they realize they have done something they deem bad.

This anime is way too hyped for this kind of plot, tbh it's so mid just like a junior high student's wet dream. The score is absolutely overrated.

Just finished volume 8~
I initially thought that the cafe job will have interesting moments between Amane and his employer, but there are none, more on Amane and Mahiru flirting~
I can see why many romance readers call it the weakest volume of Angel Next Door~

Considering if I should start reading volume 8.5~
Heard that the story will go in a different direction~

Roshidere is a slow-paced romance, there are progression, but very slow. Even slower than Gimai Seikatsu~
Romance only starts at volume 8, but still very slow as most of the chapters are used on gags, which becomes distracting~
I got bored of Roshidere's gags in volume 4.5~

Well, Roshidere is not the slowest paced romance novel~
The slowest romance novel goes to Tenkosaki,
I think you should avoid the anime when it airs next year since you dislike slow-paced romance~

I only read Roshidere for Alya's seduction attempts, nothing else~
As mentioned, I skipped chunks of paragraphs when it is Yuki, Masha or Nonoa gags~
The only other foreign heroine romance novels I am still following are Otonari Asobi, British Stepsister and the Nordic one~

Well, many romance fans keep promoting Ice Princess but I dropped it. XD

Right, but why did you rate it 8 if it's mid?
