This thread piqued my interest in this series so I decided to catch up on the manga. I have to say, it's one of the most satisfying romantic comedies I've ever read. The main reasons are
1. There's actual progress.
2. The MC has some balls and isn't completely oblivious to girls' feelings.
3. There are a decent amount of supporting male characters.
4. Not really a spoiler but just in case
Not all the girls love the MC
5. The facial expressions are gold
Anyway, so far what I've seen of the anime is just mimicking the manga so that's good I guess. A little mixed feelings on the art since I enjoyed the manga's style but like FOG said it's probably to attract a bigger audience.
