"Nisedere" is a term for a character who pretends to be in a lovey-dovey romantic relationship with someone at first, but eventually falls in love with them and becomes deredere for real. While they are in public they will act like they are deredere for each other, even though it is all just an imitation. They will do things like holding hands and going on pretend dates to keep the deception up while in public. However, through the process of pretending they will realize that they've spent so much time together and gone on so many "pretend dates" that somewhere along the line their feelings stopped being pretend, that this "fake love" is actually "real love". After this point they will no longer need to pretend and can just be in a normal relationship going forward after they confess that their feelings have become real.
Rest assured, I'll help you while I'm your "girlfriend". —Chizuru Ichinose to Kazuya Kinoshita, from Kanojo, Okarishimasu
I'll tag along if you want to keep going. —Chizuru Ichinose to Kazuya Kinoshita, from Kanojo, Okarishimasu
Sure. We can be whatever you want us to be, Kazuya-kun. —Chizuru Ichinose to Kazuya Kinoshita, from Kanojo, Okarishimasu
Don't forget that I'm just a rental girlfriend! —Chizuru Ichinose to Kazuya Kinoshita, from Kanojo, Okarishimasu
We're dating. —Chizuru Ichinose to Kazuya Kinoshita's family, from Kanojo, Okarishimasu
Kazuya: "Hey, Misuhara... Could you be like... usual?" Chizuru: "Hmm?" Kazuya: "I mean, when you're with me you can just be yourself. I know the 'real' you, so it feels a little weird when you're not, well... you. You don't have to pretend for my sake. In fact, I'd feel bad if you felt that you had to." Chizuru: "... Out of the question. I've told you that this job is supposed to help me with my acting, right? If I don't act like the customer's dream girl, there's no point." Kazuya: "... What a coincidence." Chizuru: "Eh?" Kazuya: "Because the 'real' you is my dream girl!" —Kazuya Kinoshita to Chizuru Ichinose, from Kanojo, Okarishimasu
