Review after reading manga

[akshitanpanchal · 6/10 · 2 January 2021]

The truth is I would have given it 3 stars if I hadn't read the end in manga.

This anime is more like a girl drooling over a hot guy who she fell in love with. The issue is more with the girl than with the guy. The guy knows he's a sadist and knows he's mean. This girl just takes up every insult, every demeaning stuff and it made me sick. She's so under-confident, self-centered, and a hopeless girl in the anime that I wondered why he even fell in love with her. The whole start still makes me cringe, she refuses a guy who promise to respect and treat her well and went with a guy who calls her a dog and makes her act like one. They are incompatible, childish, dishonest, and I wonder this is what teenagers think of when they think of "love"? This show is annoying and sickening in the start.

Now why I gave 6 stars? I gave it for the last 5-6 chapters of manga. The ending shows how couple works in a realistic way, what lies ahead for them and how many hardships are actually there to make a relationship work. I skipped many chapters to reach to the end fast. I would suggest you people to watch few episodes to know the flow then start reading from chapter 38 or so to avoid feeling disgusted. Anyhow, if you plan to just watch the anime, DON'T. It isn't sweet high school romance, it's just a hot guy insulting and toying with a girl. Rather watch Ao Haru Ride and then read its manga. I like the main character(girl) much more than this one. She atleast has a good amount of self respect and isn't annoying.

Wolf Girl and Black Prince

[Tweekums · 7/10 · 30 December 2014]

Erika Shinohara is an ordinary high school girl who wants to be part of the popular set so when other girls start talking about their boyfriends so does she; the only problem is she doesn't have one. When the other girls start sharing photographs of their boyfriends she takes a snap of a handsome boy and claims to be dating him… this is when her problems start; she thought he was just a random boy but actually he goes to her school. Fearing the humiliation of being exposed she approaches him and asks if he will pretend to be her boyfriend; he agrees… if she will be his dog! The boy, Kyouya Sata, may have appeared charming but he clearly has a sadistic streak and plans to have some fun with Erika. The question is how long will Erika put up with his cruelty or will she ultimately win him over?

In the opening episodes this series was a hard watch; one can't help feeling Erika would have been better of facing the embarrassment of admitting a lie than the constant humiliation heaped on her by Kyouya. Thankfully as the story progresses it appears he isn't quite the sadist he first appears. It may be rather cliché and a bit of a fairy tale but the bad boy being made good by the right girl is more enjoyable that seeing that nice girl being humiliated every week! The character designs are good enough although Kyouya is the typical bishounen bad boy of Shoujo series. Overall this is a decent enough series if you can get past the opening episodes; not a classic but enjoyable enough.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

It was pretty good but should have a deeper character development of Sata....

[Irishchatter · 7/10 · 30 July 2018]

Although I liked the story of this romance anime and the fact its giving a message that all guys can be jerks even if they act nice to ya. However I thought the character Sata wasn't at all clear for me personality wise. He goes from being kind, manipulative, naughty or just fed up with life. Yeah we can have mood swings but I just thought the character development on him was all over the place and pretty much utterly confusing. I would ask the writers to just please concentrate on only just one personality for Sata, I think it would've made my head spin even less, seriously haha!

Other then that complaint, I thought the anime was quite alright but I have to give it 7/10

A stylish anime

[amindez · 10/10 · 17 September 2017]

1.my comment is completely disagreeing with comment of Madame Monster

2.This anime has new things to say, Unlike other anime, this time a girl try to make someone like her.and this is new.

3.Madame Monster in her comment said: He's(Sata) not a hero we should be rooting for and yet this series keeps telling us he's good.and my answer is: Sata is a real hero because Erika dishonor about Sata in the restaurant in the first episode in front of 100 people but Sata always respect to Erika in groups.And in episode 2 he saves her and fights for her, although anybody isn't perfect except God.

4.After a long time, at last, I find an anime that is as good as this anime: AO haru ride.it remind me Ao haru ride,because: the boy has some family issues and the girl doesn't know anything about them.and they complementary and solving problems of each other.

5.personally in real life, I am a little like to Sata Kyouya, I don't laugh more without a reason and I am a Serious person.and because of this I like the character of Sata Kyouya.

6.this anime just has 2 problems in my opinion.The first is: Hibiya Takeru is one of the main characters as if we saw him in the first episode at the beginning, And he is likable,but we don't see him much in other episodes.And the anime replace Kamiya Nozomi instead of Hibiya Takeru. The Second problem is: After episode 5(from episode 6 until the end) The anime doesn't follow his storyline and his title.We can't see anything about Wolf girl or being a dog.

'Romance' genre at its best.

[kyrienero · 10/10 · 14 October 2018]

Honestly, I was never into Romantic stuff before this. I was bored and wanted to start a new anime, a friend of mine happened to suggest this anime. I was sceptical of it at first but after finishing it, I'm completely amazed. The story line up, the art, the music, the characters everything was great. The main protagonist was a bit twisted but you'd come to like him as the story progresses. It just gets better and better with each episode. Do watch it, I highly suggest this to all the anime fans!

Wolf girl and Black prince

[webhaunted · 9/10 · 9 March 2022]

This anime is one of the best shoujo story for me!

However, it has a very oposite kind of love" Talking about the girl who was very sweet is actually good enough to complete this anime.

The guy is good for taming everyone, but i guess he seeks for true love!

The title "Wolf girl and Black prince" is just too cool for these two main chracters!!

The anime is so good also recommending this anime for the people who seeks for true love!

more sad than funny

[hhangel-47466 · 4/10 · 30 March 2020]

This is a semi Classic trope for anime, Good looking person with a terrible personality. Usually its something you can work with and you can see the good in them and you root for them. I just hate the dude. He is emotionally abusive and I kept hoping he would have the paradigm shift that would make him better but it took too long. His good points are too little and too far between. I watched this years ago and didnt remember it much(gee I wonder why) and came back to it because of this top romance anime list it was on. I disagree but that is me.

- Pretty good -

[bundnak · 9/10 · 28 March 2020]

I think the anime was pretty good but I really recommend after watching the anime PLEASE go read the manga because I promise you won't regret and if you can find the manga online on websites like kissmanga and in the manga I think the anime ends around Vol.006 ch.21 hope this helps! :)

My review if based on the entire series itself!

Cringe

[Trixie_reviews · 1/10 · 22 October 2018]

After reading mixed reviews I decided to give this anime a chance and watch it. At first, it seemed like it had the potential to develop into a cute romance, but unfortunately, with time it just became worse and worse. And no, it's not because of the whole dog thing. Even the pretending boyfriend thing could be developed into something better if the makers of this would know how to make a romance progress organically. Unfortunately, the story now reads something like this:

Protagonist Erika is a shallow girl whose only goal in life is to have friends (doesn't matter if they're fake and she has nothing in common with them) for the sake of the looks. She likes inventing things, including a fake boyfriend. When Sata decides to go along with her lies, she just keeps on pretense. Any normal person at this point would've admitted being an idiot, apologized, and then asked that if he could've pretended to dump her (so that she could've kept the appearances and stop bugging a guy who clearly doesn't want a girlfriend). Instead, pretending to have a love life clearly seems more important to her than anything, and they both keep on the appearances. Sate is being a jerkt to her from time to time, but honestly it could've been way worse. Most of the time he just uses her like some sort of an assistant, so she keeps on fetching things for him. Erika is pretty annoying, especcially when she "falls in love" with him, which happens way, way too soon and for no good reason. Her proclamation of love sounds more like a declaration of war, and then tries to win his affection in the most cringe-worthy ways. She's pretty much thowing herself at him, which is hard to watch. When he doesn't return the feelings, she ackts like a spoild child who can't take no for an answer.

I do admit that I watched only until half of the season, but I simply cannot bear this bad "romance." It's too childish and bad developed for my taste. If you force yourself on a person you shouldn't expect them to want to be closer to you (unless they have issues). This brings out the exact offosite efect. That's clearly something the protagonist can't understand.

Just Skip It

[madamemoviemonsterheart · 1/10 · 6 July 2015]

Whether you love anime or not don't watch this.

1. The animation is nice but nothing huge.

2. Romance in this series sucks! The man is just a huge jerk who treats Erika like a worthless animal. He's not a hero we should be rooting for and yet this series keeps telling us he's good. How can we get behind their romance if he's only been arrogant around her.

3. The characters are all shallow and dull. Erika is a whiny teenager who wants a boyfriend, Sata is a nice on the outside but cold in the inside, her 'friends' Aki and Marin are clique girls who only ever talk about their boyfriends.

4. The story revolves around Sata and Erika being a pretend couple. Erika wanted to have friends so badly that she lied about having a boyfriend. Karma comes around and the guy she showed a picture of who her boyfriend is goes to the same school as her. So now she has to lie to her 'friends' about having a 'boyfriend' just so she won't be alone. That's one pathetic teenage girl right there. The guy goes along with it because he wants to use her as a dog. Yeah, why are we supposed to be rooting for these two again?

Yes the series does get better but it takes so LONG and every second of this series makes it feel five times longer than it actually is. The story is dreadful, the romance is horrendous and the characters are bad. If you want romance anime please watch Toradora, Kamisama Hajimemashita or Kaichou Wa Maid Sama. Stay far away from this.

Stockholm syndrome : the anime

[mafiagirl-21431 · 3/10 · 1 July 2022]

And i thought "maid sama" was bad... like damn, i don't know how anyone can watch this and root for the two main characters to actually end up together. The guy was straight up abusive to the poor girl, like, i never liked Usui from "Maid sama" but at least he was only teasing and never insulted or degraded misaki.

This guy is just cruel for no good reason and the girl falls for him anyway, the only reason i didn't give it a 1 is because there's some touching-ish moments but it's clearly not enough to make this relationship non-toxic.

It's so disrespectful to woman and humiliating !!!!

[kho-50724 · 1/10 · 21 May 2020]

I didn't like how they Personality embodiment to be so humiliating and showing that some girls will do anything even if it's disrespectful for them just for pretty boy or Social relations

Dont Recommend

[heelayoon · 1/10 · 18 May 2021]

Erika character is really stupid. Everyone hate girls with low self esteem who want to become a pet for a boy and dont have any values of their own.

Dont waste your time on this anime if you have any respect for women.

Worst Anime

[sirazzsadiaa · 1/10 · 12 July 2020]

This is a worst anime of the world. It has no comedy. Besides, It is very annoying! It just waste my time. The hero is very bad and the heroin is sweet ,but stupid. IT has a good ending. But the story is not good .This is a overrated anime. No one should watch this.😡😡😠😠😵😵
