Loo, Egan (March 16, 2021). " 'Don't Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro' Anime's 2nd Promo Video Unveils April 10 Premiere". Anime News Network . Retrieved March 16, 2021. I'm Pretty Sure You're Not Into This Stuff at All, Senpai!!" ( センパイこーゆーの絶対興味ないっしょ！！, Senpai ko ̄ yu ̄ no zettai kyōmina issho!! ) Well, I've Got Something for You Too, Senpai..." ( じゃー私からセンパイにも..., Ja ̄ watashi kara senpai ni mo...) In November 2019, the manga had over one million copies in circulation in Japan, and surpassed 1.2 million in mid-July 2020. [87] [88] As of October 2022, the manga had over 3.3 million copies in circulation. [89] Naoto Hachiouji, an introverted second-year student at Kazehaya High School, prefers to avoid social interactions and draw manga in his spare time. However, first-year girl Hayase Nagatoro - who is secretly head-over-heels in love with him - inadvertently discovers the manga, calls him " Senpai", and teases him to the point of crying. She frequents the Art Club room where he hangs out, and continues to bully him for his timid personality and otaku interests, sometimes in a sexually suggestive fashion, calling him lewd. Initially, Senpai really does not like Nagatoro at all, and desperately tries to stay as far away from her and her antics as he possibly can. But as she continues to push him to become more assertive, he slowly realizes he is also falling in love with her, and gradually comes out of his shell and involves himself in her life.

You Know, That Felt Pretty Good, Senpai ♡" ( なかなかいー感じでしたよ　センパイ♡, Nakanaka i ̄ kanjideshita yo senpai♡) Bonus 2: "Senpai, Your Body Seems So Stiff" ( センパイって体，硬そーですよねぇ, Senpai tte karada, kata-so ̄desu yo nee)Well?!

Regev, Nir (June 10, 2022). "Kimberley Anne Campbell Interview: Voicing Hayase Nagatoro". The Natural Aristocrat. You Stay Here and Mind the House, Okay, Senpai? ♥" ( お留守番しててくださいねー　セーンパイ♡, Orusuban shitete kudasai ne ̄ sēnpai ♡) Nagatoro and Senpai are constantly giving us interesting chapters, no matter what they do. If you’re into a more calm setting, this is for you! Bonus: "You Like This Kind of Thing, Don't You, Senpai?" ( センパイ好きっスねー　こーゆーの, Senpai suki ssu ne ̄ ko ̄ yu ̄ no)Bonus: "Please Give Me a Massage, Senpai! ♥" ( マッサージして下さいよ センパイ♡, Massāji shite kudasai yo senpai♡) From this, I get the story is meant to evolve and develop a cute romantic relationship but no matter under which angle I take this, I can't see it being healthy in the future. This manga has no humor weight or deep meaning, it feels like it's only a way for abusive comportment in romantic couples to be romanticized. If this manga had as a purpose to expose Nagatoro's journey to redemption like Shouka from A Silent Voice, it would have given more depth to the characters. I'm persuaded the story would have found a better place in the drama category. However, this is not the case. And as a comedy, I did not even smile.
