Overall, this series is one I would recommend for anyone who wants a fun, laid-back, and relatable series to watch. Despite my love of the ending theme, the OST itself was lackluster and forgettable. The art for the anime series is stunning and does justice to the manga art. Some characters such as Nishina, Mutsumi, and Nanashima left larger impressions than others.
The anime hits the reset button however, this is fairly common with 12 episode adaptations of shoujo series.Īfter reading some of Junko’s works, I have faith that the manga’s plot will continue to progress though I have little idea who Kae would end up with.
Unlike Wallflower, the plot appears to progress until the end of the series. However, the colorful cast of characters made the series much more enjoyable, as did the relatability of Serinuma. The series follows a similar formula as “The Wallflower” which nearly made me drop the series. Kind of like a kid walking right into a candy store, the show. There’s also Kae’s best friend, A-chan, who provides the unnamed “best friend” role that every otome game has. Watching Watashi ga Motete Dousunda (Kiss Him, not Me) reminds me of feeling like a kid again. The characters are fairly interesting in their own ways as they range in type: Igarashi is the “boy next door” who is aggressive in his affections, Nanashima is a tsundere bad boy with a soft side for his little sister, Mutsumi is the kind, upperclassman, Shinimiya is the stereotypical cute underclassman, and Nishina is a girl who writes yaoi and loved Kae before she lost weight.

See a recent post on Tumblr from millenialfanfictionaddiction about kiss him not me. It was funny, light-hearted, and terribly relatable. Despite my difficulties with sitting through a good number of Slice of Life series, I found this series to be my guilty pleasure this past season. Kae Serinuma is a second year high schooler and an avid fujoshi who secretly ships her classmates, Igarashi-kun and Nanashima-kun. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could all get skinny and attractive when our favorite anime characters died? If this were the case, however, I would’ve probably dried up and wasted away a long time ago. Unfortunately for them, Kae just wants to “ship” them with one another. With little care for her bizarre ramblings and yaoi obsession, her classmates continue to try and win her affections. Upon her return to school, four of her male classmates and one of her female classmates all fall in love with her. After the death of her favorite anime character, Serinuma falls into a deep depression, hiding in her room and losing a bunch of weight. Series Summary: Kiss Him, Not Me follows the tale of Fujoshi (female otaku/yaoi fangirl) Kae Serinuma.
