Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku, anime and manga review

Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku, is one of my favorite het romance series, both the anime and the manga.  The manga has 6 or 7 volumes, and I have the boxed set.  The anime is one season and only covers volume 1 or 2.  But I love these nerds.  It's about grown ups, in a workplace I used to be in, dealing with being nerds and being in love.

Narumi and Hirotaka are the first couple introduced, and they have the childhood friend thing going on, and they're the main focus of the anime and the first volume of the manga.  Narumi tries to hide her nerdiness because it's ruined her past relationships, and Hirotaka is open about his.  Will dating a fellow nerd be just the thing Narumi needs to find happiness?

The second couple featured in the series is Koyanagi and Kabukura, a pair of grumpy tsunderes who got together at the end of high school.  Will they ever get married?  Or will their grumpyness break them up?  You must read to find out!

The third couple, which only shows up in the manga, is Hirotaka's younger brother, who's still in college, and sucks at videogames, and a cute girl who's really good at videogames.  Can they overcome the talent gap and play together?

I love it, all of it.  Go buy the box set.  Do it.
