Anime Review: Kiss Him, Not Me

Kiss Him, Not Me (Watashi ga Motete Dousu n da)- 12 episodes

Kae Serinuma is a well-rounded fujoshi. But then her favorite character dies making her lose weight. Her previous male acquaintances suddenly see her in a different light but problem is, she's not interested with the boys. She is more into shipping boys with other boys.

This is the anime that is closest to reminding me of Ouran High School Host Club with the anything goes style in highschool and with the otaku related activities which make it more relatable. I also learned a lot such as the difference in shipping of whose character is more dominant.

It's been a long time since I watched a shoujo highschool anime sans supernatural or fantasy elements. Its fun, laidback and easy to watch. Meanwhile for my favorite bishie, turns out he'll have the sweetest development of 'em all.

This is a first in history in reverse harem anime with a busty heroine. In Mangaupdates, they lump harem and reverse harem together. Without looking at the synopsis, you'll notice right away if it's harem, if the girl/s is busty. Meanwhile for reverse harem. the fastest indicator is the very beautiful boy/s. Well-endowed heroines are also more prevalent in reverse harem books while in mangas the only thing that comes to mind is, Tokyo Crazy Paradise.

I wish I could lose weight that easily. Sigh! I also like it that they still tackled the weight issue as a factor for their feelings for her. You may also want to check out Love Revo which is about weight loss too. This also reminds me to try the moetivational app, Burn Your Fat With Me. Let's see if it will be effective. （ﾉ｡≧◇≦）ﾉ

Updated review on Top 10. 1/24/2020:

I chose this because I need a tenth anime and if a better anime comes along (I'm looking at you certain otome reincarnation anime) this anime would be the first to go. Or maybe La Corda. Or Maybe Maid Sama?? I don't know we'll cross the bridge when we get there. I'm not looking to rewatch or to read the manga but then again never say never... I'm not saying it's bad, it's really fun! It reminds me of Ouran because of the otaku details and the randomness or anything goes episodes. Plus I love the fact there's a character who still loves her even with her original weight. The reason I might not be too keen is that the story lacked depth or conflict...I don't know but it was super refreshing to watch this from the usual otome game adaptations. And it was only recently announced that there will be live-action movie.

Reverse harem is not an exact science. Fans may have a different interpretation of what reverse harem is. Now, this a tale of two otomes turned animes from Winter 2015 who just didn't quite feel reverse harem at all. And I thought it was going to be the best season ever. Boy, I was wrong.

All-Time Top Ten Reverse Harem Anime

Hello Wallflowers! I am not going to do a decade in review since I did that already a couple of years ago. but I am loooong overdue for my top 10 anime. I actually made one coincidentally a decade ago but it's a consolidated top 10 of everything from anime, manga and dramas as the titles are fewer back in 2010. I should have done it sooner but it's the nagging feeling that I should finish everything before I can post this. What if there's a hidden gem in my backlog that piled up beginning 2015 (due to pregnancy)? Fast forward to last year and major life events later, I have finished nine anime in eight months. It felt like forever. And after that, I found out I could actually start the list even without watching the backlog. LOL But the good thing is I was able to finish it and that has put off a lot of guilt feelings from me. I mean who blogs about reverse harem and never watches past the first episode??? Sadly, I don't remember most of the story of the anime...

Reverse Harem Anime Catch-Up Marathon: Nil Admirari, Yume 100, Dame x Prince, Scared Rider Xechs and Magic-Kyun

My marathon started in March of last year with two seasons of B-Project , fourth/last season Uta Prince No Sama and Phantom of Twilight . I usually blog my review before I start with watching the next anime but at the rate I'm going it will take me forever to get it all done. I decided to watch the remaining anime one after another without blogging and I finished it all by December. The last time I had this marathon was from the time I first discovered reverse harem. But unlike before, this time I feel like I was losing my mind and I'm going to quit watching reverse harem anime for good. Well almost. The only way for me to blog all these anime would be in one go...again. I'm just going to keep 'em all short. Disclaimer: As usual I have not played any of the games.
