Yuna Ichihara's spring break is far from pleasant, especially after she sends off her best friend Sacchan, who is moving away. But while heading home, the timid girl brightens up when she encounters a boy who looks exactly like her first love—a prince from a shoujo manga. Subsequently, she finds herself in a peculiar situation with the mature Akari Yamamoto, a new neighbor who immediately befriends her.
Now attending the same high school together, Yuna shows interest in Akari's brother Rio—the same mysterious and handsome boy she met during spring break. Likewise, Akari is falling for Yuna's carefree childhood friend, Kazuomi Inui. However, love is not at anyone's fingertips, as the relationship between these four contrasting friends faces complications, preventing them from moving forward. To discover the truth between them, they will need to confront their own struggles and uncover secrets hidden among themselves.
Omoi, Omoware, Furi, Furare was originally slated to premiere on May 29, 2020, but was delayed to September 18, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The series was released on Blu-ray and DVD in Japan on April 7, 2021.

It was fast paced. They didn't show much interactions between the male and female leads. The interaction between the female leads, specially how they met, didn't seem forced. In fact, it was okay & I liked how they became friends. But, as for the interaction between the female leads & male leads, I guess many scenes were cut. So it kinda seemed forced.
I think it'd be better if this movie showed more interactions among the leads. Then, a lot of the scenes would have made more sense and would not have looked so forced.
Parasite In Love 01
Nevertheless, I kinda enjoyed it. I was ... craving for some romance anime & I got to watch it. So, if you are looking for a light hearted romance anime just like me, you can watch it.
This movie was quite enjoyable in the beginning, however characters were quite inconsistent with their writing while the story devolved into a complete mess. It did not take long for the movie to turn extremely cheesy with most of the character interactions being frustrating and hard to sit through. As I said earlier, the writing for the characters towards the middle of the movie started to show a constant inconsistency. The two characters that were introduced presented a common dichotomy that isn't new, but was rather charming, with both of the characters actually fitting into what the synopsis of the anime described them as. ... However, towards the middle of the story, both characters started to turn into the same characters and lost the charm that was given to us at the beginning of the movie. The movie isn't all bad however, the art was rather impressive for A-1 Studios and surprised me in certain key scenes, but wasn't anything special nor unique other than the bubble motif that was presented towards the end of the movie. Music was excellent as it was not too distracting from the dialogue but when paid attention to really sets the mood of most of the scenarios in the movie as BGM should. BUMP OF CHICKEN really impressed me with a their performance with once of the scenes in tandem with the fairly impressive animation. All in all, the movie is quite a letdown especially with the encaptivating exposition, but slowly derailed into a romance drama with no passion, creativity, or good character development. If I were to describe this anime as an equation, it would be y = -x + 8.
... Unrealistic characters? Cliched and cheesy dialogues? Forced character interactions? Or maybe all of the above? Omoi Omoware Furi Furare should be named as Rejection Compilation as rejection is everything that happens. Am I exaggerating? Ofc but not too much. The premise of this movie is interesting enough. 4 main characters with different views on the love end up together in a high school as a classmate. Will they be able to achieve their wished youthful romance? It's not bad I liked the first 22 minutes of the show (yes exactly min 22). I wish I could say the same about the rest 1 hour and 20 minutes. It was just a complete mess with a huge Love Triangle. The characters are nothing new and interesting. Yuna is just like your everyday annoying shoujo character who is living in her fantasy and confessing to someone who already rejected her once. Akari may seem like a mature girl but she is selfish af. Kazuomi is that one character that every anime has that even the author must've forgotten about halfway through their work. He was the most interesting one but had the least screen time. His having to hide his passion and dream of being a movie director from his not well-mannered family was interesting, but the author decided to ignore his interesting side and just focus on boring love triangles. Rio is just a (cool) character that every anime has who is mysterious, tall and handsome. He loves his sister ( not blood-related). So he is jealous when Kazuomi is together with Akari. Nice incest going on here. Our leads meet with a complete coincidence. Yuna helped Akari once and Akari invited herself to Yuna's house. Kazuomi was Yuna's childhood friend while Rio was Akari's brother who was someone Yuna was interested in. It's not a bad way to introduce a character to other characters as it is done way too much in animes already, but I don't like when this happens coz this will take away the entire important factor of How our leads met and became friends first. The movie did a pretty okay job of this on Yuna and Akari, but this movie is not Yuri so it doesn't matter much. Because Rio and Kazuomi are brother and childhood friend of Akari and Yuna they are already friends before even interacting with each other much. So I think this is an easy and boring way to introduce the characters, but not everyone has the same opinions. So there is nothing I can do about it except for putting my own opinion. Except for how characters are introduced, how characters fall in love is not well executed either. I believe 2 things are important when it comes to romantic progression between the leads and that is Why they fall in love and How does the love affect their lives. But I think the author has a different view on what's more important. The movie is full of confession, but none of them feels like genuine love and that's because they don't have much reason to fall in love. Yuna loves Rio coz Rio (coincidentally) has similar hair to her prince from what they read in her childhood. Wow, interesting. If the fairy tale prince had black hair instead of blonde does that mean Yuna would've loved Kazuomi and not Rio? Guess we will never know. Rio loves Akari since childhood and love at the first sight. Interesting too. Akari loves Kazuomi and the author dismissed it by making Akari a kind of girl who easily falls in love. How interesting too. Rio later in the series loves Yuna and that's after literally kissing Akari like 10 minutes earlier. Is that what society calls Fuccboi? Okay people can defend him and I can understand it as Yuna did help Rio to make up with her sister, but is that enough to make Rio forget his first love and move on? I don't think so. And last and not least Kazuomi loves Akari. Idk why and I don't think the author knows it too. They had few interactions with each other and none of them helps to justify his feelings. Okay, he once saved Akari from falling as most anime characters do, but it it's not a reason. And to make the thing worse. The synopsis said, Kazuomi doesn't understand the concept of love and he is dense about these things. So why will Kazuomi love Akari? The movie suffers quite a bit from the pacing issue too. The movie is kinda fast-paced than it needs to be. Due to it many of the character interaction seemed forced. The future couples don't have much interaction with each other. A lot of my IRL manga reader friends said a lot of the scenes were cut in the movie. This can be the case but we are not talking about the manga here so it's a con here. Even though I said earlier that the characters don't have much interaction and when they do have some it's all filled with cliched and cringe dialogues which are simply frustrating to sit through and watch. Just think of any cringe and cliche lines used in romance anime. What can you think of? - It's okay, you rejected me.
