I just finished watching the anime a day ago and I just finished reading the manga today at 12:06 on the 25th of November 2024. I really loved the anime though sadly it only has 1 season and wasnt able to wrap everything from the manga. Though its understandable since they could only adapt around 2530 chapters from the manga to 1 season with 12 episodes. But I wished they made another season for it since the manga only has 94 chapters which could be wrapped by the anime in just another season or 2 more especially the anime having a very decent animation. Wished it got the Saekano treatment and it wouldve been way more famous sadly not all anime are very popular but hopefully someone else also finds this hidden gem like I did. I really love slowburn/slowpaced romance animangas since it shows us way more wholesome scenes of the characters developing feelings to each other. I started liking romcoms like these ever since Ive watched Saekano. Though the story of Kawai Complex is way different from Saekano the vibe it gives me while reading and watching it is pretty similar to it. The Main couple having a slowburn romance while it also being comedy with some very wholesome interactions reminds me alot of Saekano. I really love Ritchan too the way she started like Megumi from Saekano without showing any much emotions and just being a plain girl and actually started to show more emotions while the story and romance progresses is just so cute. Ive had a thing for Kuuderes for a while now since having a girl not showing that much emotions from the start and has their own world but after meeting the MC they start showing little by little more emotions like shyness and embarrassment is just way too cute. It also shows us a character development of the Heroine which is a good thing since most new gen romcoms dont have character developments that much nowadays. I really also love the way how they dont make the atmosphere too plain with adding a bunch of very well lovable side characters especially like Shirosan and Mayumi. Despite being a side character the author was able to give them a special relationship that most readers wouldnt have expected. Having a really great MC and Heroine is good but we also need great side characters to fill those holes in the story that seems too plain. I really love most of the side characters though I kinda dont like takashi or whatever that guys name is since he tries to find a gap between Usa and ritchan even though knowing they are dating. He also pisses me of the way he acts especially being with Ritchan. The last chapter of the manga where they show his perspective and when he liked Ritchan was kinda unexpected ngl. I thought they were gonna end the manga with a chapter where it shows everyone having a happy ending or taking a group photo together or like the wedding of Usa and Ritchan. Though seeing him try to get in the way of Ritchan and Usa and getting rejected by Ritchan right away was very great. But he also had some small development in the ending too. But even though he pisses me of and was at the last chapter the author was able to make up for it by showing us Ritchan rejecting him and showing her loyalty to Usa. I love the part where she also copies Mayumi and calls Usa lol. This is why I love kuuderes very loyal and very cute. Overall 10/10 I love wholesome romcoms
