Renako Amaori is leaving her awkward and lonely junior high school life behind, determined to become a normal girl with normal friends in high school. Glamorous, confident Mai Ouzuka is Renako's total opposite: wealthy, outgoing, and a literal fashion model. Against the odds, the two girls form an immediate connection. Renako thinks she may have found the best friend of her dreams…until Mai's romantic confession sends her into a tailspin. Renako wants to prove to Mai that being BFFs is better than being girlfriends, but Mai is dead set on convincing Renako that they're destined to be lovers.

The first love interest in this is very predatory, and the show wants you to think it's cute. I dropped after the sexual assault scene in ep 2, while knowing (from novel readers) more about what was coming, and how the series handles this sort of thing going forward. In the novel, there is an attempted rape that's interrupted, and involves Renako slapping Mai - but then later being gaslighted, and apologizing for this.. If you want to spoil yourself, you can read more about all that here. To be fair, it's actually a very realistic depiction of someone predatory. Renako's reactions in the first 2 eps felt less realistic.

Renako is generally adorable, and a good portrayal of someone with social anxiety. I can't speak to the harem writing, since I dropped it before the other leads really kicked in.
