Review of Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku
to anyone who doesn't think that this is romantic enough or realistic and that it's just 'teenagers but aged up' i got some news to tell u as an adult in a relationship with friends in other adult relationships this is show completely accurate. i was so moved by rage by negative reviews that i felt compelled to write a review. wotakoi manages to portray casual intimacy so accurately and it has pop culture references that an adult in their 20s now would absolutely have. maybe it's not fantastically romantic enough and there isn't any dramatic shit but honestly this is the closest thing to reallife accuracy i've seen depicted in anime. the internal monologues r stuff that i've had (and my friends have had) before -- stuff like wondering whether your partner still loves you in this very moment.
it doesn't seem BIG, but to you it is. that's why i love wotakoi. it manages to portray the mundane activities in life accurately.
it's not perfect by any means (god knows the animation is janky sometimes) but it has my whole heart AAA go watch it lads
