Synopsis

Umio is a shy kid who just started his part time job at a manga store smack dab in the middle of the city. But his lifestyle isn't as glamorous as the neon lights that illuminate the city. Umio's closest friends are his co-workers who are all unique characters, to say the least, and although they're nice people, they have their quirks. They are a tight knit group of friends, have nicknames for each other and spend their weekends inside, sheltered from the extravagant scene happening on the outside.

Recommendations

Manga: Genshiken
Despite following different premises, both series adapts story with a high dose of comedy and colorful cast of characters. There are typical otaku related themes involved such as manga and anime along with references in both series. Additionally, romance portrayed in both series has a very humorous tone with less emphasis on drama. Both series also appeals to its story that connects all the characters in some way related to their premise.

Manga: Working!!
Workplace comedy? Quirky characters? Co-worker relationships? Bespectacled protagonists? Say no more. These two manga titles have them all.

Denki-Gai no Honya-san is a workplace comedy set in a bookstore in a certain "electric town", whereas Working!! is a workplace comedy set in a family restaurant in Hokkaido. Both follow the funny daily lives of a quirky crew at work; "slice-of-work" if you will.

In addition, the first introduced protagonist of these two titles are a bespectacled young man who is taking up part-time work as the newest employee: Umio for Denki-Gai no Honya-san and Souta for Working!!.
