The newspaper club angle is a fun device to add outside pressure on Joro's already chaotic love life, and forcing him to avoid romcom clichés on purpose is a great meta joke for a show built entirely on rom-com clichés.

I swear, I’ve never seen a more hilarious episode, there’s always something to make you laugh😭 The storytelling is so natural that it makes us feel like we’re the main characters ourselves! The plot is so well crafted that it complements the humour perfectly, and really hits home with the audience. The story doesn't feel forced, it leaves a lasting impression as pure entertainment.

A nice characters development and bond between others...good pace of the storyline...nice visualization of the anime...a blackmail kind of trap that roped in the protagonist...funny and comendic romantic series..

Episode Context

Just when Joro thought he had things figured out, the rug gets pulled again. Episode 5 leans hard into ORESUKI's bread and butter: subverting expectations and punishing its protagonist for any shred of optimism. The introduction of Asunaro from the Newspaper Club injects fresh tension into the mix, as serious accusations force Joro onto the defensive in ways that go beyond his usual romantic scheming. The comedy remains sharp and self-aware, but there's a noticeable edge here, the stakes feel higher as perception and reputation come into play. Pacing is tight, moving briskly between confrontational moments and the show's trademark comedic deflections. If you've enjoyed watching Joro squirm through misunderstandings and social landmines, this episode delivers exactly that energy with an escalated sense of consequence.
