Romantic Killer, Vol. 4: Volume 4

Product Information

I found out at some point that this is only four volumes (NNNNOOOOOOO!!!!!) and that it's based off of an anime or that an anime of it exists, so guess what I need to hunt down?!? SO EXCITED. That encounter also introduces the school prince, who has all the money and none of the charm such a title implies. His methods of getting close to Anzu are hopelessly ineffectual, since Anzu is exactly that amazing a character, but they mine some great comedy from it (tsundere’s are gonna tsundere). I am obsessed with this series. It's good. It's funny, it's everything I look for in a manga, tbh. I still want to punch Riri though lol!

I finish this season in 1 day and never got enough of it? i really want a season 2 is really interesting and very funny . Can’t wait and hopefully there will be a season 2 soon. ?? Overall, I feel my review is harsh even though I didn't intend it to be. While I'm full of biases for a ship I want to see sail, I would be curious enough to try the third volume just so I can see more of Kazuki and Anzu together, whether in a "romantic" way because of the imp's doing or just them chilling at the house with their everyday shenanigans. And it turns out Junta hasn’t been under a spell of any kind, so yay, but also boo. So that mostly leaves Kazuki, but there’s absolutely nothing done with him this volume except a brief bit at the start with his sister. It’s good, but if I’m going to care about anything I need a little more.Mateo, Alex (February 14, 2022).

But somehow she has been caught up in a fairy’s plot to help her find love, and she’s not allowed to have her 3 favourite things until she does. Determined to never fall in love, Anzu suffers through high school life with hot boys being thrown in her way at every turn thanks to the fairy Riri.

I think I liked this a little better than the first volume. Anzu's personality really starts to form in this volume when the first she seemed more focused on losing all her stuff. This volume also introduces a 3rd potential romantic trope, but I'm not sure how I feel about them. He's a rich kid who thinks he can win Anzu's affection by buying her stuff. Struggling with a magical imp that pushes good looking teenage boys on her, Anzu refuses to adjust to her new life. It's bad enough that she can't game anymore, but now the imp is throwing romance at her too? This is indeed not her dream, but someone else's! She meeting Tsukasa Kazuki, a boy who (through a series of magical unfortunate events) ends up living with her. As Anzu dodges the magical romantic plans, she starts to realize that maybe having Tsukasa around isn't all that bad? One is that Netflix has a good history of renewing its original anime series. Shows like 7 Seeds, Aggretsuko, and Baki have all received multiple seasons. Another is that the Romantic Killer ending is far from conclusive — on the contrary, it actively sets up a second season with much higher stakes. What I think we’ll see as the denouement is that Anzu does indeed find love, but it will end up being on her terms and through none of Riri’s meddling (outside of introducing the boy to start with). That’s a pretty solid way to split the difference and I hope it goes there (I have not watched the anime, although I admit I am more interested in doing so now).

It breaks your common Shojo tropes by, quite literally, breaking them.I'll admit that this made me leery at first, even without taking into account the fact that I read this volume a few days after I lost my sixteen-year-old cat Big Al. Largely that's because from a certain, possibly overthought, perspective, what Riri is doing is explicitly forcing Anzu into a situation she neither wants nor is comfortable with. Add to that the fact that the little imp makes it clear that he doesn't give a damn about whether she's anywhere on the LGBTQIA+ spectrum, and it's a premise that can be a little uncomfortable. We don't all find hot guys sexually appealing. Romantic Killer happily breaks the fourth wall to laugh at these tropes, which makes for a refreshing take on the standard formula.” ~HoneysAnime I just finished it. An I am so hooked. I really hope there will be a second season! It’s not like other reverse harems/otomes it’s different and I really really enjoy it. Due to a series of unfortunate events, Anzu gained an unexpected and hot roommate. But wait, now she has two! And now Anzu has not one, not two, but three hot guys forced into her life. What’s a girl who is uninterested in dating supposed to do to fend these hotties off?

Fav scene of this was the panty thief, I love how absolutely FIERCE Anzu can be. I must have re-read it five times when I first came to it. (I have since re-read the book itself at least as many times. It just makes me so happy, siiiigh.)In the first volume, Anzu’s life was turned upside down when a magical creature, Riri, transported her to an altered reality where she no longer had access to any of her favorite things. Riri’s goal is for Anzu to end up In a relationship, and so she’s using every manga trope possible to increase Anzu’s likelihood of dating. Loveridge, Lynzee (August 19, 2020).

When gamer Anzu gets transported to a world of hot guys, it’s like she’s in a dream… someone else’s dream! Surprisingly, Riri was quite the fun character in this volume! In no way have I liked the imp in this series, but there were some funny shenanigans between the imp and Anzu that did make this volume a little more exciting than the beginning led me to believe. The Imp is the apex of all that is evil and I really like how Anzu isn't giving up and really wants to help free Junta from the Imp's spell. I kind of ship her being single, BUT I'm a romantic at heart, so want her to be happily paired off, but I DON'T want the imp to win. Catch-22!
