Either that, or make the game-playing so flashy and over-the-top that I don't care about the rules anymore, and I begin to like it for more or less the same reason I like pro wrestling.

But yeah, the slice of life material is definitely top notch in this show, and I hope that will be focused on a lot through out the anime.
