Chouchouté par l'ange d'à côté

Yeah, yeah, the initial setup is total nonsense, I understand, I agree, boys' wet dream, isn't it. However, when it comes to execution somehow the show finds the way. Because the male lead is not a childish idiot (looking at Kazuha from Rent a Girlfriend), the story is about Mahiru's and Amane's relationship not about a bunch of other characters (Rascal's Bunny Girl Sempai) and both of them are able to lead a proper conversation for more than just a few minutes and one does not wonder why these two are together at all (Horimiya). They even have friends coming over, who are a pair, not a group of other girls, and altogether lots of realistic events happen with them as they slowly but steadily get closer and closer to each other. It's a slice of life anime. (Luckily, there are not too many school scenes and I haven't seen a Student Council President. Chitose and Itsuki are a nice couple with a mature relationship, I was surprised about them.)

There is a relaxing tranquility coming from this show. The characters are not extreme (okay, Mahiru's character is a bit unrealistic as said in the beginning), maybe they are a little bit dull according to anime standards, but as a result, there is no constant, made up drama, nobody is screaming and whining through episodes, the male lead has a brain and actually uses it, he is capable of making decisons and communicating those straight (whoa! Ok, not with a Hachiman level of vocabulary), or express his emotions in words (double whoa! "Do you wanna me to make a move on you?" That's all folks), nobody, and especially not the girls, is put into humiliating situations, there are no nasty jokes, fan service, nobody is bleeding through their nose.

Chill, peace and love, a love story in soft water painting. Really likeable if you are not looking for the adrenaline. (Mahiru would look better as a traditional Japanese girl, considering her behavior, just my 5 yens. Makes me remember Aoi from Ai Yori Aoshi... they are a bit flat, true, somehow it didn't make me bored. She turns out to be more than what she shows in the beginning, which makes she cool at the end. I loved her smug face.)

"The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten" is a heartwarming and delightful anime that beautifully captures the essence of a gentle romance between two seemingly different characters. The story revolves around Amane and Mahiru, two high school students who are neighbors and slowly form a special connection that goes beyond friendship. Their growing bond is portrayed with tender moments and touching scenes that showcase the power of kindness and genuine affection. The anime's animation is crisp and vibrant, enhancing the emotional depth of each interaction. The character development is sincere and relatable, making you root for the pair as their relationship blossoms. With its charming narrative and sweet moments, this anime is a must-watch for anyone looking for a feel-good, wholesome experience that will leave you with a smile on your face. That's how I find the best couple in anime by showing honesty to each other.

This anime was a great watch. The romance is innocent and subtle and slowly builds up to something you'll find yourself invested in. Both protagonists are strong characters with individually strong personalities and it's quite the journey seeing how both characters intertwine throughout the episodes. Not only that but the side characters also have equally strong parts to play as well.

The ending was very heartwarming and has me extremely excited for the recently announced season 2. There's a bunch of questions left unanswered so I'm excited to see the story continue.

If you're looking for a love story to indulge in, this is it.

Through this story, it is known that no matter how you look, what kind of person you are, how you think about others, and how many you are and how good your heart is.

These words have been understood so beautifully that I personally liked them very much. Thank you for such a beautiful story.

I want more stories like this to come in the future.

Such stories teach us many things about life.

Which are very useful in our daily lives.

Love is a part of life.

Which is more or less present in everyone.

But there are many people who cannot express it in front of everyone and some people can Waiting for season 2.

This series offers many wholesome romantic and cute moments for the audience to enjoy. The protagonists have very similar personalities, but they differ in their backgrounds, values, behavior, and outlook on life. As they get to know each other, they learn more about each other's backgrounds, and as each character starts revealing more and more about themselves through their actions, speech, as well as the characters around them, they come to like each other more. I feel like this series, unlike many other's within this genre moves a bit slower, which depending on the viewer can be a positive or negative thing. In this series, you get to see how their relationship slowly plays out, from a point where they really have no chemistry, and get to see what specific events that allowed the characters to get closer and closer, eventually revealing to the audience what traits made each character find interest in the other. Overall, it was a series that I found overall wholesome with many romantic and cute moments, and it is in my opinion, one of the better anime series released this season.
