Sad that it did not live up to the promise of the title. Descended into a workplace romcom with trivial otaku references. Ignored the promising material of exploring the con scene, aspiring artists & writers all while holding day jobs. I can see lots more interesting plots that could be done. Dress-up Darling was much better and recommended over this. The negotiation between Koyanagi & Kabakura of their contrasting interests would have been fun to watch & the side plot of Nifuji Naoya & Sakuragi Ko felt more like filler. Loved the intro though. The animation for it is quite endearing. Unfortunately I haven't read the manga andcan't compare it with the source material.
