Say 'I Love You' Episode 1 - Summary / Rant

OKAY GONNA RANT A BIT HERE.

PROBABLY GONNA HAVE SOME GHETTO IN IT, IDEK.

I decided, let's watch anime tonight! Maybe catch up on KuroBas! But I wasn't in much of a sports mood so instead I watched Say "I Love You".

OKAE. SO GENERIC.
SO FORCED.
THIS IS WHAT TURNS ME OFF FROM SHOUJO ANIME.

You start off with this girl named Tachibana Mei. She never had any friends. She never had a boyfriend either. Oh, and her dad died.

Some girls were like, "Hey Mei, it's been like 16 years since you had a boyfriend right? LOLOLOL!!!1!!!11"

I kinda bonded with Mei at that part. I was like, "Gurl, I'm turning 16 in four months and I ain't had no boyfriend either."

But then Mei was all like, "Omg fuck the world. Fuck people. They're all backstabbers omg."

I just sit there like, "Dude. What about your mom? Your dead dad? YOUR CAT MARSHMALLOW?! ARE THEY GONNA BACKSTAB YOU, TOO?!"

And then later on in the episode this pervert classmate dude who is friends with the "most popular dude in school" (with funny hair, btw) bumps into her accidentally. She gives him some death stare and runs off. Like, WTF no wonder why no one likes you, you're a bitch.

Then the most popular guy in school... Uh... His name I forgot so we'll call him MPG. But anyway, he was like, "Who is she?"

And the perv man was like, "Oh, some girl from my class. What a weirdo. She doesn't talk. I don't think anyone has heard her talk."

MPG: "She's interesting."

Oh, big surprise. MPG takes an interest in the reincarnation of the devil, Mei.

So not too long after, perv man is looking up girls skirts. He sees a long skirted girl with knee high socks and is all like, "Ooooh, who's under this skirt?"

OMG IT'S MEI.

And then Little Miss Sunshine gets all buttmad and blows her head yelling, "IF IT'S AN ACCIDENT, WHY DOES IT KEEP HAPPENING?!"

Then MPG comes in and is all like, "omg dat was my friend, srry."

But for some reason, Mei does some roundhouse kick and bails MPG, making him fall down the stairs. And then she storms off.

Then MPG's fangirls and perv dude were all like, "omg MPG, u okae? D:"

And MPG just starts laughing "Omg she's interesting!!!1!!"

Then it's the end of school and MPG somehow finds Mei (who is feeding cats 'cause she's a crazy cat lady) and gives her his number 'cause she doesn't want to exchange numbers. #2MUCHSWAG

And then Mei goes to work at a bakery and there's this pedophile there who keeps looking at her and looks at her name tag and shit. I knew he was suspicious but he didn't do anything that time.

So the next day at school, MPG keeps saying hi to Mei but she just straight up ignores him. I don't think she realizes that that's why she doesn't have any friends. But eventually he finds her in the hallway and they talk.

MPG: Mei! Why didn't you call? I was waiting. D:

Mei: I don't like talking on the phone.

MPG: What? Not even to your friends? :C

Mei: I DON'T HAVE ANY FRIENDS. *shows MPG how she only has two contacts on her phone. Home and bakery* I DON'T NEED FRIENDS. Everyone is just a jerk who plays a role as your friend but backstabs you later!!!1!! *runs away*

MPG: ....

Seriously, Mei. If this were real life, you would've missed your chance already. Someone is offering you a hand as you dangle off a cliff to your death but you're just ignoring if. You'll need friends to be successful in life.

So then Mei goes off to work and MPG goes karaokeing with his perv friend and their bitches. They're real pimps. They got the big boobed girl.

So Mei is walking home and she notices Mr. Pedophile following her. She heads over to a convenience store and calls home. OHSHIT NO ONE ANSWERS. Luckily, she conveniently has the slip of paper with MPG's number on it!

So she calls him and he's all like, "omg I'll be right there!" and he ditches his friends and runs super fast to Mei's location.

They talk a bit about the pedophile stalker and he buys ice cream because he's hot from running. Then he puts his arm around her and they leave the store.

Pedophile: Who is that?

MPG: Mei, I love you. *passionate kiss*

WHAT. SERIOUSLY?!
YOU COULD'VE JUST SAID, "I'M HER BOYFRIEND." AND WALK AWAY. BUT NO.
YOU KISS THE ANTISOCIAL-CRAZY-CAT-GIRL YOU MET ONLY YESTERDAY.
LOGIC.

Mr. Pedophile leaves and MPG looks at Mei who is all sparkly eyed and dazed 'cause that was her first kiss.

And the episode ends there.

WAT.

And that concludes my rant.

This is why I don't like shoujo anime too much.
