Koi Nante, Honki de Yatte do suru no? is the new Hirose Alice show about 3 super stylish 20 something women and their love life.
Horise Alice plays the main character Jun who proclaims in the beginning of episode 1 that being single is great. She's never been in love and I know you are thinking she's the female Kuwano Shinsuke, she's doesn't seem to enjoy single life like Kuwano in KDO and spends a lot of time fretting about how she's missing out.
I do not enjoy the Jun character because while she is successful at work, emotionally she is like a middle school girl which the show explicitly states is part of her character. I also dislike the lack of believability around Jun's plate making business job. Its just feels so generic.
Anyone June is drawn to this waiter who is super nice to every woman he comes across and I do not care about the two main characters. They are annoying and I want to fast forward their scenes so I can watch the other two character.
The second main character is Kyoko who is in a marriage with red flags all over it. How her supposedly best friends are unable to see the red flags is unbelievable. The writer should have made the super husband addicted to online gaming instead of a bland husband with no dedication to his wife to make it more believable.
Anyway Kyoko is slowly drawn to a mysterious cook played by Fujiki Naohito.
Luckily there is the third character to save Koi Nante and that is Arisa who is in a papakatsu relationship. Arisa regularly receives expensive gifts from her papa but one day runs into a combini worker played by Ichitaka from I's. The combini worker seems to also have an interesting secret.
Koi Nante, Honki De Yatte do suru no? is a very shoujo love story and I was ready to drop it but I kind of want to see what the secret of Fujiki Naohito and Ichitaka are. I can't really call it watchable because there a lot of things about the show that bother me. Meh.
If you are not the target audience, there is not much here for you. Koi Nante needs a lot more humour because Jun is just annoying.
If you are still interested in watching, you can get the subs from subscene or you can get hardsubs here.
