Are you still wallowing in misery because Muri Muri Mondays ended? Is the There’s No Freaking Way I’ll Be Your Lover! Unless … sequel too far away to offer any comfort? There’s no need to answer that; I know it’s a yes. Luckily for you (and me), the Watanare Sweet China Fair is here to soothe our sorrows.
Kawaii waifus in elegant and kyuuto Chinese-esque dresses invigorate the soul. Currently underway, the collab fair runs until November 11. Best of all, for every ¥1,100 (~ $7.20) spent, Watanare fans will receive a random illustration card. The items from this online-only event are expected to ship towards the end of February.

What’s Watanare About?
Renako Amaori was gifted with a surplus of positive traits, but her introverted and socially awkward personality inhibited her relationships. After graduating from middle school with nothing but lonesome memories, Renako decided to forsake her Bocchi-like life. Before her high school debut, Rena-chi forced herself to become a normie and completely revamped her appearance. And to her surprise, it works! Rena-chan quickly integrates into her new school’s most popular social group (even if she struggles with the facade). But unfortunately for Renako, her transformation into the ideal girl leads to her newfound friends seeing her as more than just a platonic companion.
Watanare (There’s No Freaking Way I’ll Be Your Love! Unless…) is available for free on the Its Anime YouTube Channel.
