Episode 1:
Episode is out on Crunchyroll today. Lol, first episode's tittle is apparently "♀ IRL, ♂ Online"...(makes total sense) Looks like the main girl (Moriko ) is a NEET and she even admits herself that she chose the path. She also makes a "hot guy" character in a fantasy MMO game named Hayashi. The themes of the show seems to pop fun at the lifestyle of a NEET. Not impressed by the visual style of this anime yet although I will say that it gave me a few laughs at times. It doesn't seem the show takes itself seriously and is pretty lighthearted in nature.

First episode had a bit more mmo playing content than I liked, hopefully once the secret it out, there be more scenes of her irl. I enjoyed those the most.
If she got flowers after resigning/quitting, she probably had a least a mid-manager position or in a decent company for a while, so I assume she has some significant savings to live the NEET lifestyle for a while.

I watched this pretty much on a whim, because the story sounded cute and funny, and indeed - it was cute and funny, and way more real than expected. The whole "NEET in real life develops a perfect life in a fantasy game" thing is the sort of story that you either do like this, or it's just really depressing, so I'm glad the story went with the fluffier approach.

BTDT, a while back I had a bit of cash in hand after a lucrative contract finished up so I coasted for a few years then once the bank balance got low enough I went out and got another job (but not as well-paid as previously). If you've got family, responsibilities and a social life then a steady paycheck is the only way to go but otherwise, life's too short. As for the show itself? OK but not brilliant, a sort-of reverse isekai where the bishonen level 80 hero Hayashi from fantasy-land finds himself gender-swapped in our mundane world fighting for the last piece of Xmas chicken in the konbini store.

I was going to pass on this series because of the general concept (not my kind of show) but decided to give the first ep a try out of curiosity. I was surprised at how entertaining the first ep was. Will continue until I get bored with it.

Mamiko Noto as a thirty year old female NEET. I have to say I have never heard her do this kind of role before and her voice sounds so coarse and actually normal. I'm liking it so far as I can totally relate as I'm always playing the opposite gender in MMOs.

Correct me if I am wrong, but flowers are usually giving to female managerial/supervisor positions who are retiring or quitting the job in Japan? It might explain how she might still have some cash leftover.

So cute! Everything is so cute, even the MMO landscape is so cute! Characters are so cute! OP and ED are so cute! Hug pillow is so cute... OK, perhaps not. But the characters are all so huggable, and especially the main girl. I think it is canon after ep 2 that handsome blond Sakurai guy is Lily? I am not sure they said it but it kind of seems obvious. Anyway this series is like an enormous candy floss, I hope to see more like this.
