Review of Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku

For someone who doesn't like romance since middle school, I feel like a dump. I've been getting through some romance anime recently; most of the anime I've watched are bangers. Like this one right here. However, the ending could do a little work since it was open-ended, and it feels like this anime is only a promotion for the source material. I don't mind it because I enjoy every single one of the episodes of this anime. We are starting this review with the opening theme song. I can't get enough of this opening. I remember listening to this song before I got into the animeand loving it. The calmness, the joy, and the TikTok dance. Those are just some of the best things for an anime opening in one. Hopefully, there will be more like this in the future. Other than the opening, ost itself also very good. It's so relaxing to hear when it blends well with the animation.

Animation-wise, I do like the animation. It's not too over the top and not too bad either. Just a simple and really enjoyable experience.

Plot. There is no plot.... No, I'm not joking. What did you expect from a romance, slice-of-life anime? It's just 2 lovers getting into each other life. Heck, it's 2 OTAKUS LIFE. How could you not feel relatable? This is how you know you enjoy life. Watching anime for the sake of enjoying your own life. Well done, Fujita-sensei. I'll be cheering for your next work.

The characters. For a weeb that loves anime, and Games. Their personality is really relatable to me. I can't get enough of their antiques, it's both adorable and cute. However, I have one complaint about this. For the last two episodes. Like guys, you introduce a new character, Kou, why would you butcher her character? She doesn't even get a proper spotlight. She only appeared for the last 2 episodes and you all just like. Yup, that's a wrapped. Like b*tch, what's up with that? I want to know more about her story with Naoya. But like I said before "promotion for the source material" bit. I guess they want to introduce her to make us the consumers grab the manga and finish the story from there. Like TG35SS did. (At least that's what it feels like for me)

And also a bonus segment. I've been watching a lot of anime and reading romance manga/manhwa/manhua recently, and I can't believe that I just realized how little to no story is like this. A story about a new couple getting through their relationship. Most are the story before they are together. I want more of this, the story where their relationship is already set sail, and the story or plot of it is them getting through their relationship. Like Bunny Girl Senpai, KimiZero: Our Dating Story, etc. For Manga/Manhua/Manhwa/Webtoon, like (Manga) Asahina Wakaba and her Chubby Chubby Boyfriend, (Webtoon Indonesia) Pasutri Gaje, (Manhua) My Wife is From a Hundred Years Ago, (Manhwa) Brothers and Sisters, etc.
See! Even I struggle to make an example of the story I have read and watched that has that kind of plot/story.

Anyway, overall 9.5/10. Solid SOLROM. Recommended for all people who like to enjoy life through anime.
