The last two episodes of The Girl Downstairs, Rakuten Viki’s latest Chinese Anime about the budding romance of two next-door neighbors, a pop star and a socially inept and anxious nerd, is premiering this week, bringing the logical conclusion of a love story at a busy campus university between two characters that would’ve normally never met were it not for the fact that they bumped into each other in the hallway and the elevator.
The romance between Yuan and Shiya has had its fair share of ups and downs. Shiya’s constantly pressured by her friends to look the other way at Yuan’s advances, and Yuan’s shy, inept, and inexperienced around the ladies, so he’s making it up as he goes. In any case, these two seem to be for one another, there are feelings there, and they might end up together or go their separate ways. What will it be?
The Girl Downstairs Episode 20 Recap
Across the past episodes, we’ve seen how Shiya came forward from the stage and presented herself with another name and how Yuan Juntang is not shy of hiding his feelings for her. The courtship seems to take effect because what started as a casual hallway encounter grew into a full-blown flirtation, and eventually, the two started to fall for each other. The thing is that one’s a pop star, and the other guy is kind of a loser.
And while the girl gets some heat from her peers because she’s falling for a guy that is not within her league, her feelings gravitate toward him. We see lots of that in the interactions they have on campus, in the hallway, and on the dates they have.
