3D Kanojo Real Girl Jmovie review

3D Kanojo Real Girl as can be surmised from the title is an otaku falls in love with real girl rom com. It starts of ok enough and you could tell where the story was heading when the main girl Iroha tells the guy Tsutui he would be her boyfriend for half a year.

Then cracks started appearing in 3D Kanojo. Their chemistry was lacking and as the main characters asked each other what they saw in each other, I as the audience was wondering the same.


Before the story had any time to build on the relationship between the characters, the story introduced a third girl and we had a triangle relationship that I did not care about.


There's this bit in the story where the doctor says Tsutsui was changed Iroha but we don't really get any elaboration on that. We can only surmise based on Tsutsui's ramblings about Iroha in the beginning that she was a bad girl but its not been elaborated upon. 

Then we get to the 6 month point and we have this Halloween dance sequence that feels out of place and then Iroha disappears to get the surgery and then we jump to five years.


Wait, what? The girl you have been dating for 6 months goes to surgery and the main character does not even try to contact the parents to find out what happened during the surgery? Maybe visit the freaking hospital after surgery? Who the fuck wrote this shit?

I think its completely impossible to f up a romcom but 3D Kanojo really did it when it tried to cram too many storylines with earning any of the payoffs. 3D Kanojo would have been better if it concentrated on the characters' personalities like how Iroha was changed by Tsutsui instead of shoehorning more romcom tropes. Also, the Halloween dance which they used for the ending is so freaking out of place. Avoid.
