Rent-a-Girlfriend
Synopsis
The story
Kinoshita Kazuya is a 20-year-old failure of a college student. He managed to kiss his girlfriend once, but was dumped after a month. "Ugh... Damn it. I never want to go through that again." Completely spiteful, Kazuya uses a certain method to date a girl. He goes to their meeting place and suddenly hears, "You're Kazuya-kun, right?" A beautiful girl brushing her long, black hair behind her ear was there, smiling at him. Her name was Mizuhara Chizuru. Something real is born after just a single rental! A reckless rom-com filled with love and excitement is about to begin!

Lively RomCom with a Mad Simping MC Loves Monologing a Girl's Features and is Shameless and Useless in Every Other Way

Rent-a-Girlfriend is a harem where the MC makes it impossible to believe any girl would ever fall in love with him.

Something of a guilty pleasure, Rent-A-Girlfriend fills a certain niche despite its flaws.
