Review of Don't Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro
To be honest, after careful deliberation I have concluded that you either have to be 12 or a pedophile to like this show. I'll start off with the positives I suppose, then move on to the negatives: Positives - The animation isn't bad. This IS an anime after all, so I have to give it that much. Also, the male MC had some potential as a character and some slight character growth in the series. Slight. Negatives - Nagatoro literally looks like a middle schooler. This show was often extremely uncomfortable to watch, and the fact that this was trending as popular on Crunchyroll amazes mebecause it is literally degenerate clickbait. For those who like fanservice, that's your prerogative. In fact, there was a time I admittedly used to be like you! But I saw the light and I just can't condone this show. Not because I'm not a fan of the ecchii shows anymore, but because this is crossing a line. Also the storyline feels like filler to justify the gimick of the show thats just more one-sided bullying and torment from Nagatoro.
For those defending Nagatoro's bullying as her "love language", then she's either emotionally abusive, or the author has a humiliation fetish.
The only thing that really kept me engaged with this show is because the male MC literally looks like the anime version of someone I know, and it was funny to see. Also, I was curious to see if he would actually gain some character development and stop being such a timid guy. I have to give this a 1, again fanservice is one thing but Nagatoro looks 12.
