I was dubious but now I am watching it.
Definitely odd but it's actually an alright watch!

You watch Promised Neverland already. :)
Here are some others (in no particular order):

Dororo - historical, horror, demons
Manaria Friends - magic, slice-of-life (that's all I can say not to spoil it)
Magical Girl Spec-Ops Asuka - action, military, magical girls
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime - isekai, fantasy
The Price of Smiles (but the final episodes were very disappointing) - mecha, military, drama
Kemurikusa - sci-fi, makes you think
Revisions - sci-fi, mecha

Don't care to watch the anime (or live adaptation), I'm all about the manga version though. Been following the mangaka's work
since GE - Good Ending.

That being said, damn there are a LOT of potential love interests for the MC. I will say though that I'm not a fan of him and
Rui. I prefer him and Hina.

Oh, nice! I plan to start buying the manga as well. It's a great story and the art quality is so good.

Yeah. I also think they're a better match. But for me the reason is that he doesn't deserve to have Rui as his girlfriend. With Hina they're both at the same level of dumbness. :P

You mentioned that you've read other manga of this author? Are they as good as this one?

I actually think its the opposite, I don't think she deserves to be his girlfriend.

She admitted to swooping in after he had broken up with Hina, and she has mostly shown herself to be very jealous,
quick to anger, impatient, immature, quite literally a brat.

She and Natsuo are so much more similar in personality type and it just gels well, from what I've seen of their
interactions anyway. Not because they both tend to tunnel vision and be absent minded, but they have far better
chemistry.

Okay that tangent aside, I liked her previous work, which was GE - Good Ending. It's slightly more somber in tone,
but it's still a decent high school romance/drama. The art is still quite good, although obviously her work on
DxG is much better. I recommend that one as it gives you a great insight as to how this writer works on her script.

She's only ever had 2 series, with DxG being her second. She's had a few one-shots, which were okay, but nothing
to write home about.

I'm genuinly happy about the way this anime was concluded. Wasn't really a happy ending but it wrapped up the anime nicely.

Yeah. It's often the problem with abrupt endings in anime, but this one was done well. :)

These are better than being indecisive, irresponsible and dumb. :D Let's start the Hina vs Rui waifu war!!! (just kidding)

But tbh, I don't see the things you mentioned in her. Actually the opposite. She's shown her maturity by trying to separate herself from Natsuo and even mentioning that she will try to hate him, after she learned about his relationship with Hina. Being jealous is a positive thing. Being quick to anger, if there is a real reason to be angry, is positive too. Why do you think she's impatient? Another of her good parts is that she shows/tells what she wants and when she's not happy about something. In comparison Hina could one day say one thing and another day say a different thing and one will never know what she really thinks and what is important for her. She didn't even discussed with Natsuo the issue when their relationship was discovered by the school. She just made a decision herself completely ignoring him.

And of course Rui SHOULD take action after Hina and Natsuo broke up, lol. That's in her best interest (from her point of view).

It's up to chapter 229 (Volume 23 or 24). From what I heard, the Manga Serial is very close to finishing. As for where the Anime ends, it adapts mostly up to Chapter 72 of the Manga (part way through Volume 8). For anybody interested as well, you can buy the Manga both Physically through Amazon (I'm not sure where else) and as a digital eBook via Amazon Kindle, or Crunchyroll subscribers can read Chapters from unreleased volumes on their website or via their Manga app.
