The series, which chronicles Kazuhiko Nukumizu’s
unexpected involvement in the lives of three girls unlucky in love, has
captured viewers’ attention with its mix of drama, romance, and comedy. Even
though Kazuhiko is considered a “background character,” he ends up being the
center of a complex web of romantic relationships and misunderstandings, which
has kept viewers hooked episode after episode.
The victory of “Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines!”
has not gone unnoticed among fans, who quickly flooded social media with their
reactions. Some comments celebrated the result, while others expressed
doubts about the legitimacy of the ranking.
- « I
never had any doubts, I knew it from episode 1 and it stayed that way
until the end. Anna, Komari and the other girls were special. A-1 did an
amazing adaptation, improving the story in many ways. Make
sure to support the books too! »
- « Can
anyone tell me why Monogatari is not included in these votes? »
- « Shogakukan's
marketing gave Makeine the win in this popularity contest. I like the
anime a bit more than its light novel, but it's not even a top 5 this
season to be honest (it's still a top 10 though) ».
- « Well
deserved. Much better than Roshidere ».
- « For
me it wasn't, but it's definitely in my top 5. »
- « Many
sites have their own anime awards. I personally prefer Anime Corner. 'Days
with My Stepsister' is the best »
- « I
wish they would have announced the second season! The next arc of the best
girl, Yakishio, in volume 6 is definitely the best, and I also want to see
more of Tiara Basori! »
- « For
me Oshi no Ko should have been number 1, but Makeine was also very good,
so I don't mind, well deserved »
- « The
anime of the season is definitely Oshi no Ko season 2, but if we're
talking about new anime, it's Wistoria .»
- « Most
overrated anime won? Nothing new in these tops. In any serious ranking it
would barely be in 5th place. That it beat Gimai Seikatsu, Monogatari and
Oshi no Ko is one of the worst jokes on this site ».
- « I
wouldn't go that far. It's good, but not the anime of the summer ».
- « It
was pretty predictable, it’s always weird how every series gets some of
the categories that would normally go together. Like someone who votes for
Masachika would also vote for Yuki or Alya, or the same for Makeine. Anyway,
I just hope Shoshimin won something . »
Despite divided opinions, “Makeine: Too Many
Losing Heroines!” has established itself as one of the most successful anime of
the summer season , and fans are eagerly awaiting a possible second
season to continue the story.
