Girlfriend, Girlfriend
Tweekums18 September 2021
This comedy anime is centred on Naoya; a first year at high school who has just plucked up the courage to tell Saki that he loves her. He is overjoyed when she agrees to be his girlfriend. Things don't go as expected for long; another girl, Nagisa, confesses her love for Naoya and he can't bring himself to turn her down! This being a harem series the three of them are soon living together. They don't want their school mates to find out so things get even more complicated when Rika, a popular vlogger finds out.

There is nothing deep and meaningful about this series... of course there isn't it is an ecchi harem show. There is however plenty enjoy. Every episode made me laugh many times. The characters might not be the most believable but they fit with the genre. The girls are each suitably different and Naoya isn't quite as sleazy as he might be; nothing too much happens between him and the girls and the occasional nudity is given the 'censor steam' treatment; at least in the version shown on Crunchyroll. The animation is pretty good as are the character designs. Overall I'd recommend this to anime fans wanting a good laugh; it's probably not for younger viewers though.

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

Overall
Mysterygeneration14 January 2024
All that's needed to remember not to take harem seriously is this anime.

I knew right away that this was something I want to watch when I first saw GF GF reception and how everyone seemed to think it was cringe or some bs takes up space for no purpose. Something that is irrational, has a silly concept, or merely has a low mean score tends to be looked down upon solely because it is illogical, cringe-worthy, and blue-pilled. However, some anime are intentionally stupid, and for that reason, I don't understand why people take stupid anime so seriously. GF GF is a prime example of this.

This anime is absurd; it follows outrageous and ludicrous character behavior, with chemistry that fluctuates like a crazy trigonometric polynomial function. The plot does whatever the heck it wants, and I have a sneaking suspicion that it will get even more absurd in the future. But GF GF is so entertaining to watch because of all this silliness. In addition to the production value of this, which appears to be greater than that of any previous harem I can recall, Perhaps not quite as attractive as Oresuki, though. Overall, I truly look forward to GF GF, and it's okay to adore dumb stuff.

Good show worth a watch

Girlfriend, Girlfriend

Hello Fellow Humans,

I am going to talk about the show and about the subject. First the show is cute and fun. It has good animation and character build up. It's a taboo subject which makes it fun because most men that I know in America would be happy with a situation like this. It is worth watching as long as you don't take anything too seriously.

Now as far as the subject goes, from a purely scientific perspective. There are only a handful of animals that are Monogamous. You have a few penguins and birds that are monogamous in mating. While most animals either do mass mating like fish and crustaceans. Then you have herd animals that do one top male for a group of females. Lastly you have group animals like lions and wolves and monkeys.

For some odd reason humans over the last few hundred years have started to choose monogamy. Not sure why, except for religious reasons. Other than religious reasons there is zero benefit to only pair up. Now I am giving one example but the makeup of adults can be anything. But let's use a small group of two males and four females. The house would be slightly bigger but overall less materials used to house 6 adults and whatever amount of kids. Assuming two master bedrooms or one massive bedroom for the adults. Adults could break up things easier like out of 6 adults 4 can work while two stay at home and raise the kids and cook and clean. The 4 would help with cleaning and chores but overall everything would get done faster which means more free time for everyone.

Some people think you can only have one love and one soulmate. But technically soulmates as a word is around 100 years old. Before the 1900s love wasn't really a concept. Before the 1900s soulmate literally meant GOD, because God was your soul mate while your wife or husband was your physical mate. Also it wasn't uncommon for say a brother to die on a farm and for the other brother to takemin his dead brother's wife and kids and raise them. It was much more of a community thing to raise kids and to help family. Whereas in America if your brother died his wife is on her own. You may feel bad but she would not look at you to take her in.

Then you have your classic two girls that are best friends and like the same guy. They fight and become enemies and neither gets the guy or only one does. But why not both? Again aside from your religious views. Naturally why could two women not be with one man? Maybe that man is successful and able to provide. Maybe one woman wants to be a stay at home mom and the other wants kids but wants to work. If they both go after him then they all win.

So a show like this that shows a taboo subject that humans made taboo. Because in nature it is actually the norm and monogamy is the taboo. I like when a show can push people's views and make people think. Because if you take your personal religious beliefs out of the opinion you form. Objectively there is nothing wrong with multiple adults being together. Again I say adults. Not child brides. Adults who can legally make their own decisions. This show isn't for you if you don't have an open mind or you are so closed off from the world that anything new and different makes you uncomfortable. But I would say to you get out of your box. I would say to society let people love and be with whoever they want as long as it is consenting adults.

If you have free time to spend, it may be a good comedy show
The-Last-Sith-Lord1 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Typical harem-type Japanese love comedy, where the girls fall in love with the protagonist, in this case, the protagonist is already in a relationship with one girl, and he really asks his girlfriend to have another girlfriend and he starts to date and live together with both girls.

The girls are enjoyable and have good personality, but they really don't have much chemical with the main character (I really can't see any reason for the girls to like him), the main character really lacks some charisma (his personality is really flat which makes him not much of an enjoyable character), which makes me only 5 stars to this show.

Fresh and fun Harem anime
firebrand816 August 2021
Fresh, modern and absolutely hilarious harem anime. All the characters are absolutely top notch and far from the boring stereotypes of the genre. This is the only harem anime with a real harem, it's something never head of!

The protagonist, our boy Naoyia, it's a mixture of genuinity and honesty taken to the extreme consequences. All the girls are well characterized and developed, and you cannot not also fall yourself for all of them.

For sure, best anime comedy of the year 2021.

This program is still worth watching.
Mysterygeneration14 January 2024
Two years ago, when "Kanojo mo Kanojo" first broadcast, I saw two different kinds of reviews. While some viewers applauded the show for taking a fresh approach to harem comedies, others took it too seriously and expressed dissatisfaction over how ridiculous the show was or how each character behaved strangely. I really enjoyed the first season. Not just because of its original idea, but also because each episode had me laughing out loud. As someone who enjoyed this "trash" in the past, I'm happy to hear that a second season is coming.

Thus, Shino's manga arc will most likely be covered in this season. Since manga readers have long loved Shino, this is one of the best arcs to cover. This show's humor is still excellent, and fan service has been present since the first episode. The main distinction is how Shino enters the picture, adds herself to the harem, and creates some drama around Mirika's problem. The characters are still completely bonkers and behave in an abnormal manner. If you can acknowledge that this is a work of fiction and that there is no possibility that these events could occur in real life, then this program is still worth watching.

male character is very bad he gives me headache
sarveshwarapr16 October 2021
Girls lead the anime but the male character is super annoying. He is more like an idiotic pyscho who is super emotional and does meaningless things IDK why the girls like him he is personally the worst male character I have ever seen in an anime anime is overrated and was not worth my time left it at episode 10 as I could not bear naoya (the main male character) anymore and would recommend to watch any other anime or summer anime of this year.

Pure comedy gold!
yuhatashinatose17 September 2021
This romcom takes a complete different approach than all other comparable animes. And wow, this is fun!

Naoya is overly honest and eager, so when Nagisa confesses to him, he can't turn her down, though having Saki already as his girlfriend. He decides to propose a love triangle to Saki, promising to make them both happy...

Each episode is really creative and the characters are unique, well developed and likeable. In addition the japanese voice cast, the animation and the music are really top-notch.

I you haven't seen it already, give it a shot. You won't regret it.

Absolutely Hilarious!
Meisinger2323 April 2022
The whole premise of the show is just so unbelievable and ridiculous.... And that is what makes it so funny! The characters are very fun and full of personality. The voice acting performances were also top notched and so hilarious! This has been one of my favorite romantic comedy anime series I have ever seen! I would highly recommend for someone looking for an outrageous plot and non-stop comedy gold! Also read the manga too!

burn in hell Saki
erminahotmail13 December 2023
Then this anime series could have gone very well, that is, the animation was quite beautiful, the plot could have been a lot better. But the problem with this anime is that the hateful character of Saki who always gets the programmer Naoya sometimes because in all the episodes he is takes a lotseveral shots always at all times together with Saki and I couldn't stand to watch anymore she's just an ugliest character in a lot of anime series that's why I really don't like this anime it's the worst one it came out at the second season my God I don't want itjust follow the second season because I never want to see Saki again to conclude vote 2.

Really good!!!
jadondude6 August 2021
If you like anime like, Rent a girlfriend, Quintessential Quintuplets, and many others like that, your going to love this one. Girlfriend, Girlfriend, is about the protagonists Naoya, who got a girlfriend he has loved for years. And then another girl confesses to him... so stop thinking and press play!

Why did I even like this that much?
gvidas-992013 November 2022
After watching this Anime 2 episodes in, i was for sure not going to finish, because the main character really sucks, hes just too active and goofy, but somehow i just got pulled right into it, mainly, the concept reminded me of Domestic Girlfriend or rent a girlfriend, maybe thats why i just got pulled right into it. I kinda see why it has such low rating as 6.7, but weirdly enough i gave it 10 stars, why?

Well first, the animation was so great, it's honestly very good for such low rated anime, i really enjoyed the style of it, second, it had some funny moments, thats what i would call rom-com, and it truly was, third, since i didnt like MC, i'm happy we got more involved with different girls, so I saw less of the Goofy MC and more of the girls stories and etc. Thats it really, but somehow i stayed to the end and watched it all.

I'm really happy i got to see this gem, and hoping for 2nd season :)

To be real are all of you blind or have everyone lost good taste about anime it's not always good to be realistic in every place we all have to be realistic but that's why anime is made to make us escape reality so what is with these ratings it should go more higher. It is a too good comedy and harem anime and I personally want all of the girls to be happy and that he too marry all of them. I know it's not possible in Japan but if I were in his place no matter where I would have married them all and made them happy too.

Very different
leprigg25 March 2023
This show is very easy going and often rely on crazy situation for comedy.

Definitely it deserve a watch.

It's out of realistic touch and not something u should take seriously at all.

Everything is written in such a silly way that u would find it hilarious.

The very concept of this show is hilarious.

But don't expect much from this show.

As it's needed to be watched with a light mood.

The anime main character are girls.

And it's kinda dive into male fantasy.

So if ur a girl watching it u might not like it at all.

Our protagonist don't have a charm , everything happening is just sudden for him.

He is a straightforward, idiot who is just lucky to be stuck in such situation.
