The most generic couple romance for the most interesting premise

Dropped when the couple got together (the couple gets together really early on so I don't consider this spoilers)

They don't commit to her being a cartoon villain enough she has a skimpy fan servicey outfit for her work uniform the underlings of the bad guy are all cartoon skeletons. She is the most generic shoujo romance protagonist and that's a letdown because I was hoping they would commit to her being evil, scary and overall villainous but even her design doesn't want her to be that because she doesn't embody anything of the gimmick "Villain x Hero" this is basically like if a story labelled itself "enemies to lovers" with only a 2 page arguement then at the end of the chapter they got together "because they fought and only enemies fight" same thing with this story only they have her fight in the silliest horniest outfit and expect you to go "wow look at her being the villain" which is very low effort and short then in the next chapter they have her helping old people cross the street, helping a kid find their parents in a crowded event, feeding a stray cat and a bunch of other generic shoujo romance crap that it feels like you could just make them opposing companies/ businesses and nothing would change "like so-and-so works at a café/ pizzaplace/ flower shop/ clothing store but right across the street love interest works at an opposing café/ pizzaplace/ flower shop/ clothing store can this "odd couple" really make it work with their "forbidden romance" " this story's couple is played damn near exactly that scenario which isn't a good thing considering the whole "gimmick" is what if power ranger got with girl from the bad guys. They made her a soft shy uwu girl who treats working there like working at a convenience store it's just low effort and feels like he wanted to make a college shoujo romance but someone told him to make this instead.

Just so disappointing considering how interesting the gimmick was. Art's decent but not enough for the generic shoujo writing for an interesting couple. Just found out it also has hella fan service for the main girl so I believe that should tell about the quality as well.
