Review of Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku

Allegedly this is a josei, but feels a lot more like a shoujo. Wotakoi is a highly rated show, I didn't expect it to be so distant from what demographic it should represent, I expected a real josei/seinen show, what I got is just another shoujo in an adult cast/office setting. Every character, every plot, every scene is straight out of any generic high school shoujo show. It's honestly very tiring that apparently seinen/josei = adult cast, office setting and alcohol. It's still an enjoyable show, but not for the reason it should be, it's deceiving to say the least. It's mostly about comedy and otaku culture,there's barely any romance, it's very lackluster in that category, I think the romance tag doesn't fit this show.

Besides these 2 pretty significant issues it's a good show, it's funny and I'd say it accurately represents nerds of all media, with a bit of sugarcoating of course.

If that's what you're looking for it's good, but if you want adult-like elements or romance, this is definitely a no.
