Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii

[alex_drian]

Not bad, in fact was good, but ummm, this season I have a romcom, and this have a manga to follow, so I don't know, Tadakoi or Wotakoi.

I really liked it. I wasn't expecting Narumi and Hirotaka to become a couple at the end of the first episode already. My jaw almost dropped when Hirotaka left the friendzone so fast (well, from our point of view. For him, it's been a long road). This alone makes it different from 90% of romance anime, where this usually is the end goal. The otaku thing adds some spice. Very curious to see what their dates will be like!

[grecefar]

Well right now hirotaka like narumi or maybe already in love with her, and narumi accepted for the benefits he gave her to be in a relationship with him, as I see she doesn't have feelings for him so it seems this will go that path were he make her fall in love with him, or I hope it is.

Wow I liked it a lot. Turning it into anime fixes the problems I had with the manga (too short, no sense of progression or story).

I'm surprised Narumi doesn't have the typical cute girl voice, it's refreshing I guess.

Cute girl voice while chugging tankards of beer would be somewhat incongruous.

Seeing the male lead smoking is another thing that might make some folks twitch a bit -- I can't recall if the manga made a point of identifying the ciggies he smoked but the anime deliberately shows them to be Menthol Lights, about as innocuous as you can get in the "burn your lungs out with fire" business.

The Febreze spray bottles outside the smoking aquarium were a nice touch.

Hah. I spent two years of my life like this, minus the part of nerd culture stigmatization that doesn't really exist where I come from.

Edit - That last bit about going out to farm and level up with her is about as weebish a dating proposal as there ever could. I should try that line some day.

Narumi has terrible taste in both men and waifus. As good guy and fellow otaku, with bit of luck, Hirotaka might be able cure both.

I bet to differ. Her taste in waifus is excellent, from what we've seen so far at least.

[Tenzen12]

Sorry but I didn't see her praise poster of Utaha, Michiru or Eriri, just some random mob who has explicitly in it's job description to be boring.

Yeah that's true. I definitely like her character's way of talking and her (VA) performance adds another point of enjoyment you can't get from the manga.

I laughed at that part. I mean are they actually dating or is this a business transaction?

Narume took the wrong lesson from her last boyfriend. If that's all it took to for him dump her than she sin't the problem, the real issue is that he's an asshole.

Quite a fun show at any rate.

I love the reason Narumi accepted. Chiyo should try that with Nozaki (in Monthly Shoujo Nozaki-kun).

Knowing Nozaki, that could actually work

[Anh_Minh]

He'd definitely accept just to gather material on dates and dating.

So many references in this show. I love it lol

Narumi is slowly becoming one of my favorite characters for this Spring season with her personality and interactions with the others at her workplace. The comedy gags are still very well done imo.

[Kakurin]

Was quite amused by the Animate scene. Well done with the interaction of both Kabakura and Hirotaka on one end and Koyanagi and Narumi on the other. Especially which way both Kabakura and Koyanagi are going in regards to their preferences.

[HandofFate]

love the way Narumi acts.
She seems like such a handful.

[HtwoN]

The Pokemon reference cracked me up so hard.

So Kabakura likes loli while he has a hot girlfriend? lmao.

[Mistyclear]

Did anyone else see the Mahoutsukai no Yome reference...Hanako was holding it.
