Osamake: Romcom Where The Childhood Friend Won't Lose (Osananajimi ga Zettai ni Makenai Love Comedy) is a Light Novel series written by Shuichi Numaru and illustrated by Ui Shigure, which began publication in 2019. A manga adaptation illustrated by Ryou Itou began serialization the same year in Monthly Comic Alive, and an anime adaptation aired as part of the Spring 2021 anime season.The title of this work promises to be "the love story where the childhood friend doesn't lose", but how can that happen and still keep up dramatic tension? Simple: make every girl a childhood friend!Kuroha Shida is Sueharu Maru's pretty and affectionate childhood best friend. However, when she confesses to Sueharu, he immediately rejects her because he's interested in someone else. This is where the attractive award-winning Shirokusa Kachi comes into the picture, the girl whom Sueharu calls his First Love. However, his spirit gets crushed when he quickly learns that Shirokusa has a boyfriend. Kuroha then comforts him and presents him with an offer he can never refuse: getting revenge.

The Man in Front of the Man: Kuroha decides to be Haru's sidekick in his plan for revenge, although it is obvious that she is the true mastermind of the team. And it is eventually revealed that she was manipulating him, only to be able to reject him later.

Faking Amnesia: Kuroha tries to pretend she has amnesia, not remembering the confession event at the festival, and losing her odd habit of combining weird foods. However, she's quickly caught as she says something at the end of the second arc that proves she never lost her memory at all.

The Beard: In the Confession Festival Arc, we have 2 of them: Kuroha for Sueharu and Mitsuru for Shirokusa for the same purpose of getting revenge. Eventually, Shirokusa shaves hers off after ditching her revenge plans, pursuing Sueharu for real while Sueharu becomes attached to him after an epiphany, but the feeling wasn't mutual at the time.

Poor Communication Kills: The entire Confession Festival plot could have been avoided had Shirokusa known about Sueharu's Dark and Troubled Past, which in turn would prevent Shirokusa from initiating her Operation: Jealousy with Mitsuru which caused Sueharu to retaliate with his own since Sueharu and Shirokusa were mutually in love with each other at the time. Then again, Kuroha and Tetsuhiko had other plans...

Green-Eyed Monster: Sueharu's male classmates are always jealous of the attention he gets from cute girls, calling him "guilty!" while comically crying to the point where Kuroha has to tell them to leave him alone. Kuroha herself. Much of the conflict revolves around her jealousy towards Shirokusa Kachi for being Sueharu’s first love since he rejected Kuroha when she asked him out. This persists past the Love Confession Festival despite turning down Sueharu’s feelings for her.

Hidden Depths
 Osamake / int_2dc0d2bf
comment
Hidden Depths: Several characters aren't as what they initially appear to be: At first, Shirokusa is an Aloof Dark Haired Teen Genius (she won an award for her novel at the age of 17), but as the series progresses, we see that she's clumsy, very hard-working, Prone to Tears, and has a habit of self-deprecation. Who would've thought that the sweet, perfect childhood friend Kuroha is a selfish, Manipulative Bitch? Similarly, Tetsuhiko seems to be a Romantic Wingman for Sueharu and Shirokusa, except he's just manipulating things for his own interests and doesn't really care for their complicated love lives when it doesn't benefit him.

comment
Love Dodecahedron: It is a mess. In the Confession Festival arc, We have Kuroha in love with Sueharu, who in turn is in love with Shirokusa, who is pretending to date Mitsuru. At first, it's a Love Triangle once Shirokusa reveals that she's in love with Sueharu all along and faked a relationship with Mitsuru just to get revenge on Sueharu with Sueharu doing the same with Kuroha. Later on, Shirokusa dumps her plans for revenge and starts pining for Sueharu for real, but at that point, he lost interest in her and confesses to Kuroha in the end, but gets brutally rejected, even though Kuroha still loves him. Post-Festival, Kuroha and Shirokusa love Sueharu who shows interest in neither, but a third Love Interest named Momosaka arrives to claim him for herself. Then Kuroha's sisters start to crush on him.

The Gadfly: Ooragi Shion has no filter whatsoever in her childish exchanges with Sueharu, where she's constantly trying to provoke him and refers to him as a "toy" for the three girls that are in love with him. She even points out to him that he's undeserving of their affections. Asagi Rena, as well. She calls Sueharu "Paisen" (the inversion of Senpai, as she's his junior at school) to mock him and frequently calls him an idiot, much to his irritation.

The Ditherer: It's the main plot point that Sueharu is inconsistent; one minute, he's drawn to Shirokusa, and another, he confesses to Kuroha. Then he rejects the latter's advances on him because as much as he loves her, his feelings aren't 100% there, and even thinks of the other girls, though he still doesn't have the heart to outright reject her. Or else the light novel would have ended too early.

Tempting Apple: Apples are repeatedly used as a motif for love in which falling in love is likened to something that "spreads over your body and eats away at it", just like how poison spreads in apples and makes them rot. The apples are golden in the anime, symbolizing the object of desire and temptation.

Fat Best Friend: Meiko, the girl with the bob hair who's always hanging around Shirokusa in class, is on the chubby side and acts like her spokesperson and assistant.

My God, What Have I Done?
 Osamake / int_a1b141f4
comment
My God, What Have I Done?: After learning the real reason Sueharu didn't come to visit her, Shirokusa is deeply ashamed of her past actions against him. Kuroha herself shows regret in rejecting Sueharu in the Confession Festival due to effectively losing any trust he had in her making it more difficult for her to secure his heart in the future, going so far as to fake amnesia in order to get a fresh start.

Imagine Spot: Episode 10 starts with one, where Sueharu is imagining a naked Shirokusa caring for him in an erotic manner, rather than all three girls being there and fighting over caring for him over his broken arm.

Jealous Romantic Witness
 Osamake / int_bc97f0c6
comment
Jealous Romantic Witness: Any of Sueharu's Love Interests seeing him "flirt" with another girl is enough to make them jealous, sad, or angry. However, it's more prominent in episode 9 where both Kuroha and her little twin sisters have to see him worry about Shirokusa at different points in the trip. Later on, Kuroha even admits that seeing them together felt worse than when she rejected him.

Compressed Adaptation: It's not that noticeable, but some of the details regarding the characters and minor events in the original light novel are removed in the anime adaptation, such as Shirokusa's clumsiness being downplayed, and the conclusion to the cooking competition in episode 8 getting cut.

Romantic Wingman: Subverted for Tetsuhiko. He initially appears to be one to Sueharu in pursuing Shirokusa, but he's actually manipulating him for his own gain. He later offers his services to the 3 Love Interests post-Confession Festival in order to increase Sueharu's reputation and clout for his ends.

Hypocrite: Kuroha gets jealous that Sueharu is getting attention from other girls since she herself is still in love with him, but as her competition points out, Kuroha herself rejected Sueharu's confession in public out of pettiness with video evidence to boot. So Kuroha really has no foothold to stand on regarding Sueharu's love life since she was given an opportunity to be with him and shot it down.

Balanced Harem: The plot rotates between Kuroha, Shirokusa, and Momo in terms of screen time, chemistry, and depth. Even the Shida twins who aren't primary love interests for Sueharu and are mere hopeless suitors in the harem, get fleshed out to some degree in episode 9 as they ruminate their hopeless suitor status in a poetic and tragic manner.

Vitriolic Best Buds: Tetsuhiko never misses a chance at holding Sueharu in a headlock, hitting him, or throwing him in a pool while screaming "Go to hell!" whenever he's merely thinking of something perverted much to Sueharu's bewilderment. Sueharu gives him the same treatment, especially when he acts like an ass. Although they are frequently bickering, they are still close friends and Tetsuhiko gets angry when someone badmouths Sueharu.

At first, Shirokusa is an Aloof Dark Haired Teen Genius (she won an award for her novel at the age of 17), but as the series progresses, we see that she's clumsy, very hard-working, Prone to Tears, and has a habit of self-deprecation.

Gambit Pileup
 Osamake / int_de9047ac
comment
Gambit Pileup: What the Confession Festival story arc boils down to. Shirokusa pretends to go out with Mitsuru in order to get Sueharu’s attention. This is all part of her plan to get Sueharu interested in her and then reject him when he decides to confess to her. The reason for this plan is that Shirokusa believes Haru broke their childhood promise and abandoned her. After learning of Haru’s circumstances, she abandons her plan, reveals her identity as “Shiro” to Haru, and is more than willing to accept his declaration of love. Mitsuru, after hearing of the aforementioned “rumor”, decides to play along, and even goes to lengths to antagonize Haru, spurring the latter into one-upping him at the festival. The reason for his actions is to make Haru, his idol, regain his interest in acting. Kuroha consoles Haru over the Shirokusa ordeal and suggests that he should take revenge against Shirokusa for breaking his heart. This is part of her own revenge plan against Haru. She can get close to him while they are discussing their course of action, and should he switch his target of affection to Kuro, she will promptly reject him. The motive is to get back at him for rejecting her before the story begins.

Sugar-and-Ice Personality: Shirokusa can be quite distant with her classmates like tearing apart her notes because a girl wanted to copy them, as Shirokusa sees compares her to a parasite and is acknowledged to be detached In-Universe. However, she's kind to the people she cares about and Sueharu defends her by saying she's actually "cheerful and even innocent!"

Determinator: The three main love interests of course never give up on pursuing Sueharu and trying to make him pick them providing contrast to the Shida twin sisters who know that their attraction for him clashes with their older sister's feelings and seem to have given up on getting him to reciprocate. On a non-romantic note, Shirokusa always tries to do her best in dance practices for their commercials and MVs, staying up at night to practice more even when her foot is hurting her. She is determined to be strong and stand beside Sueharu on stage.

Theme Naming: The name of the two main girls refer to clovers. Kuroha sounds like “clover”, while Shirokusa is named after the white clover shirotsumekusa. Conveniently, they both wear their respective flower in their hair. All the girls have colorful names. Kuroha's sisters are even nicknamed the Colorful Sisters. Shirokusa -> Shiro (White) Kuroha -> Kuro (Black) Midori (Green) Aoi (Blue) Akane -> Aka (Red) Maria Momosaka -> Momo (Peach/Pink) Rena's family name Asagi means "light yellow"
