Poor Anzu, all she wants in life are video games, her cat, and chocolate. Unfortunately those are taken away from her by a stupid, horrible, obnoxious fairy named Riri that wants her to become romantically and sexually involved with a generic hot guy. Fuck Riri, the entire time I wanted to throw him against a wall and then stomp on him over and over until he's dead or gives up on forcing romance and sex onto Anzu. This manga is a great example of how enraging amatonormativity is, regardless of whether Anzu is canonically aroace or not (I see her as aroace and nobody will change my mind about that).
