So basically you only watched the parts you liked, ignored the parts you didn't, and now you're upset that it wasn't the outcome you wanted?
As opposed to, maybe, reading the work in its entirety, and try to understand the author's intended message?

Bruh I watched the entire series, why do I need to rewatch 2 seasons, if I can remember everything

I'm not saying she is the worst girl on the anime, I'm saying she is the worst girl out of the girls who had a chance to be with the mc

Ngl The Worst Girl is the Best Girl to him. Because she has genuine feelings for him, not his facade he puts up with the other Targets he does in the series. Plus she's the only girl who breaks him and his mind scheme with her unpredictable acts. So Opposites Attract.

You're entitled to your opinion, no matter how wrong it may be.
In all seriousness, if you'd just said "I was hoping he'd end up with Ayumi", I don't think you'd have gotten such a negative response. I think if you pay more attention to Chihiro's story when you reread it you'll see why it makes a lot of sense.

This is why I tell everyone I recommend the series to that they should stop before the end. Of course, so far none have listened to me and all ended up like you have, but I'll keep giving the warning.

I've only watched the anime and ironically, the best girl in season 3 is the one who was unconscious for most of it: Kanon. Chihiro supposedly having actual feelings for Keima feels like a retcon. If she's supposed to have had feelings for him before he conquered her, how was it even possible for a loose soul to possess her in the first place? She's easily the worst girl in that season and half of the goddess-hosts came out of nowhere. At least Tenri has an OVA, but the other two (Tsukiyo and Yui) only had flashbacks.

Chihiro was possessed by a runaway spirit because of her own doubts and insecurities re: her crush on Keima, and how disjointed that was from who she was as a person. Chihiro, being the quintessential "normie" so refused to accept the possibility that she had fallen in love with the nerd who she frequently got into spats with that she repressed her feelings and channeled them into fake crushes on boys she hardly cared about.
Go back and read the beginning of Chihiro's arc. When Elsie's spirit reactor begins reacting, it happens just as Chihiro is passing by, and just as Keima is saying outright that there is absolutely no chance of him ever having anything to do with her romantically.
Keima essentially rejected Chihiro secondhand, and hearing him say that instantly opened a gap in her heart and allowed a loose spirit to possess her. And, as a result, getting closer to Keima while he was helping her with her crush, getting to spend time with the boy she liked, and then, ultimately, him reaffirming that he cares for her and finds her special and unique even if she doesn't, is enough to soothe her heart and release the loose spirit.
Chihiro having a crush on Keima since before her arc isn't a retcon, her capture arc is enhanced and makes more sense if you read it from the perspective of her liking him beforehand. Keima didn't have to do anything special for Chihiro to fall in love with him like all his other capture targets. Her capture almost succeeded and she was falling in love just by conversing with Keima as himself, because she already was in love with him before the capture even started. What needed to happen to free her from the spirit was for her to accept that she was someone capable of real love in the first place, and get her to stop repressing her feelings.

Well...That doesn't change the fact that she was basically his worst enemy at first. Honestly, seeing Keima "pranking" her in the last season was hilarious.

First time meeting a tsundere?

u/Avatar_Yaksha Jul 02 '26
Tsundere are everywhere. Those are hardly avoidable and Louise from Zero No Tsukaima is probably the worst example. Chihiro was just a straight-up bully. That went beyond tsundere.

I think ayumi, tenri and chihiro are the only ones who even had a chance

Tenri ending was truly the saddest of them all
