We all know it will turn out that Ena had another guy she now can be with and was using the girl to help them be introduced because of the thing they hinted at in the flashback.

A better story though would be the guy straight up wins forces the girl away. It then comes out Ena wanted the MC the whole time and had some stupid reason for doing this but since they "dated" the same person it was basically like they never broke up since they went on dates as a trio

WHAT

THE FUCK

DID I JUST READ?

honestly i really hope that she loses and he goes and tells her to go fuck herself at the end, but since this is given the romance tag, he'll prolly fall for her.
I agree, like why would you for someone that did this to you? like i hope there is a new love interest thrown in, hell i would rather he go back to the Ex girlfriend then her,

Bro, If self confidence is your weakness, then rejecting her is a sign of improvement not the opposite
Chapter 1 and it's a mess and also so many sign of future bad writing. but still bookmarked for now.
That's the conclusion I came too as well. People with self-confidence issues aren't as forward as he is shown in this first chapter. If it's about how he never made an actual move on her, well, that's just being awkward, not lacking self-confidence.

Crazy this has such a low rating. Didn't think it was that bad at all for a start. Dudes not even a spineless loser MC like most, he turns her down over and over until she gives him an ultimatum that's his only way out. Actually talks back and shit. I liked it.

The writing is kind of foreseeable though.

I'm assuming the reason she likes him has something to do with the trip his friend mentioned where he was super kind. Ena will have some dumbass reason for breaking up even if she didn't want to (i want to support my best friends romance, because her feelings are for sure and mine are just blossoming) or some shit. But that's not terrible.

I questioned more on why? Why she's in love with the mc and why did the other girl actually broke up with him. My guess is that it's the cliche rich family won't accept the daughter having a bf and the tomboy girl "broke" them up and claimed him so that he won't that anyone else. Cause seems like the mc is popular with girls he's just too dense

Why don't we do a quick prediction on what happened prior/will happen in this manga?
  1. MC somehow saved/befriended cuckGF long before current events.
  2. MC and exGF started dating and exGF ended up falling for him (though she may not realise it herself just yet).
  3. ExGF and cuckGF became good friends.
  4. ExGF found out cuckGF has a crush on MC. They talked it out and hatched a plan where exGF decides to support cuckGF in her love by "dumping" MC.
  5. MC by some astronomical plot stupidity decides to date cuckGF.
  6. Thanks to miracle anti-amnesia plot pills MC finally starts to remember his previous encounter with cuckGF and falls in love with her.
  7. ExGF changes her mind and wants to date MC again.
  8. Both girls compete until the end where MC decides to choose cuckGF.
I don't think there's much more to talk about here. Let's just all move on to reading something actually substantial.

The rating on mangadex is worthless. Go look at the rating for Karamizakari, third lowest rating on the site.

So~ he just need the confidence, eh? If that's the case, why Ena didn't say it in front of him? This girl either wants to see our MC having a spine and get his ex away from him, or she wants a boyfriend too.
And by the looks of it, she's maybe one of the girls that has a crush on him back in his childhood days. So she stole his girlfriend just to be with him...

From Novel Updates, provided by YourMorninCu:

Mizushima:

Her first impression was incredibly strong, she essentially solidified herself as public enemy #1 right out of the gate. As the story progresses, you can see that the author is trying to get you to like her more, but her initial actions kind of overshadow anything else she does (at least for me). I mean, she "stole" MC's girlfriend, and then outta nowhere states that he was the main target all along, and she did so in the most arrogant manner possible.

What we come to learn later on is that the whole "steal your girlfriend" thing was actually a game/bet between Mizushima and Ena (they're childhood friends). If Mizushima could steal MC within a month it's her win, if not, Ena's win. Now the whole underlying reason for the bet is s*upid (but more on that when we talk about Ena), but it was proposed because Mizushima also knew the MC when he was younger (shocking). He had saved her from a drunk man who got hit in the head with a ball while she and her friends were playing. Everyone left her with the adult and MC happened to pass by and save her.

She fell in love with him from here and kept thinking about him throughout the years. Part of the reason she becomes such a public figure is in hopes of becoming someone worthy of MC and in hopes that he'd find her. However, right before entering an all girl's highschool, she gets a message from Ena (they had kept in touch over the years) with a picture of her new boyfriend (guess who).
Mizushima still covets the MC and still wants to be with him so she tells her parents she's changing schools to be with him and one day Ena complains about her relationship with her boyfriend to her supportive childhood friend.


Ena:

She was pretty much manipulated into the whole game/bet thing by Mizushima, but it doesn't make what she and Mizushima did any less vile. How it went is that after complaining about her relationship, Mizushima saw her chance. She spilled everything about how she met MC in the past and her love for him, and proposed the bet. Ena feeling guilty for stealing her best friend's crush agrees, but forbids her from talking about the past.

Another thing to note is that Ena also agreed because she questioned if the MC really loved her. She grew up in a strict family and didn't get out much. Coupled with the fact that the MC didn't touch her (handholding, kissing, etc) she thought this was a good opportunity to find out (ya know, instead of just talking about it, but whatever).


MC:

Nothing much to say about him despite he's the MC lol. He's pretty much just dragged along by the others. The only thing of note is that he used to be bright and active, and that he once wanted to be a hero so he practiced martial arts (this comes in handy). This is also why he saved Mizushima when everyone else ran away. But what upsets me is how spineless he is, these two literally toyed with his emotions like it was a game and didn't really feel any remorse until around the last 5 chapters. He's like a doormat the entire time and doesn't even put his foot down when his family is in danger (more on this in the next section).


The story itself:

MC goes along with the bet with Mizushima and during this time he is stalked, his family is potentially put in danger, and he is almost stabbed twice. Once while he was protecting Mizushima from a crazed fan (but she ended up shielding him and getting slashed on the forehead) and another time when her other crazed fan (her manager's sister) saw them together posing as a bride and groom for a photoshoot and tried to get rid of him (once again Mizushima took the knife, but this time she actually got stabbed in the side and was hospitalized for about a week). This is what I'm talking about with the author trying to paint her in a better light, but in the last instance of stabbing, MC was trying to take precautions but she basically said "I'll protect you, it's fine." Mind you the reason the stabber knew where they were is because she asked Mizushima out on a date to the aquariam, Mizushima said no, but still took both tickets and used the other one for MC (to which he foreshadowed "you're gonna get stabbed someday"

After Mizushima is released from the hospital we get the confession. It's been a month and she once again confesses to MC, but he turns her down (but not because he doesn't like her or he still sees her as the one who stole his girlfriend), it's because he didn't want to see Ena said because at this point he still thought they were doing this behind her back.

With that said, Ena comes out and everything is revealed. Ena apologizes but before getting back together she reveals Mizushima's (who has already left at this point) and MC's past and gives him the option between the two of them again. He runs after Mizushima and finds her on a beach blowing a whistle he gave her when they were younger (saying whenever she blew this he'd come save her). They have a heart to heart and right before solidifying their relationship Ena shows up regretting her decision to let MC leave to chase Mizushima. They go back and forth, neither wanting to give up on him until someone sees them and calls security.

They resume converstaions the next day after school; the girls start off by apologizing for treating the MC like a toy this whole time and tells him to choose. He can't so they do the next best thing, he can just date both of them. But this doesn't sit well with him so he asks them for more time. The story ends with them joining the same film club MC is a part of and introducing themselves as girlfriend candidates.
Fucking hell, like, I could let go of many things, but open ending for such a story is a cardinal sin.

Why do you consider the Mangadex rating worthless? Is it simply because you disagree with it? Using Karamizakari as an example may not be the best choice; it holds a rating of 4.54 on MyAnimeList, 4.4 on MangaUpdates, and 39% on AniList. Do you consider those ratings worthless too?
Definitely. Just because someone doesn't like the story and setting, that doesn't mean it's bad. I think that about all ratings.
If you read something that's in a genre or with a tag you don't like, and you don't like it, you can't claim that it is bad.
The same case for this, if you don't like the premise and story from the start, then this obviously wasn't meant for you in the first place.

If only people who liked a series rated it, the entire rating system would be completely biased. Ratings are meant to provide a balanced view by gathering a wide range of opinions, both positive and negative. If only fans rated it, the scores would be inflated, and potential readers wouldn't get an honest representation of the work.

It's important to have diverse perspectives, including those who may not enjoy the genre or premise, because that helps provide a fuller picture of the work's overall quality. Sure, personal preference plays a role, but people can still critically evaluate aspects like the story, character development, or pacing, even if it's not something they typically enjoy. That's what makes ratings valuable—they're not just the opinions of people who already love it; they're a broader assessment that helps others make informed decisions.

I disagree, and I never use ratings to decide if I will read or watch something or not. Though neither do I for popularity I guess, that something is popular or not is also not a deciding factor if it's good or not. There's a lot of popular stuff that's outright trash, and there's even more unpopular stuff and unknown stuff that are hidden gems. The only way to know is to check it out for yourself.
The things you are describing would be fine if a work is rated objectively, but they never are. And more than enough ratings on places like MAL or even here on mangadex are obviously manipulated. Except Frieren of course, Frieren should obviously be on top of MAL at all times.

plus, dude can't even stand his ground, the only right way to fix this is, overhaul this twisted plot with more common sense, this plot is like...i mean what kind of straight girl who will fall in love with a girl, it just doesn't make any sense. it would make any sense if dude's gf started to like someone else that a "guy", probably like cool guy or idk,

idk bro, this GL stuff ain't my jab, i hope the author will provide something better next time

### don't be mad at me if you're one of em
