This School Force Students To Be Married Couples While Monitoring And Rating Them
Anime Explained -- May 18
A high school implements a new experiment where random male and female students will be paired together for a mock marriage.
This has made every student nervous. But Jiro (Jee-Roh rhymes with hero, zero) doesn’t really care for all that because he’s a gamer dude. He’d rather shake his rod to animated girls—-- ahem. I mean, Jiro is often arguing with a popular girl named Akari (Aa-Kaa-Ree). Akari is your typical mean girl, the Regina George type. Akari actually has a crush on the tall, handsome and soft-spoken guy named Minami (Mee-Naa-Mee).
