Wotakoi: Love Is Hard for Otaku

Wotakoi: Love Is Hard for Otaku (2018)

My rating: 2.5 of 5 stars


The two main characters are a bit unusual in this case as Hirotaka willingly admits he likes Narumi and the two of them would be great together as they are both otaku, but Narumi insists otaku don't mix well together so she'd never date Hirotaka.... up until he points out all the pros of them going out. Even then, they say they are dating, but they don't really do any date things until towards the end of the season. It's a rather confusing relationship with a heavy focus on some major gaming and fangirling, with a side dose of cosplay thanks to their friends and coworkers. Anime fans might still get a kick out of it though recognizing some of the references to other fan favorites in the series, including even the iconic Sailor Moon.
