Yamada-kun to Lv999 no Koi wo Suru

After her boyfriend breaks up with her for another girl, college student Akane Kinoshita wrestles with a broken heart and the memories he left behind. Loading up Forest of Savior, the MMO they used to play together, she forms a plan to get back at her ex-boyfriend through an in-person event for the game. In the process, she runs into someone unexpected: Akito Yamada, a gaming legend who just happens to be her guildmate.

Desperate for support, Akane ropes the asocial Yamada into helping with her scheme and lending her a shoulder to cry on. The differences between Akane and Yamada soon become apparent as they spend time together, yet they cannot help but notice each other's inner qualities. As the two gain more experience with one another in and out of the game, their tentative acquaintance may level up in a way neither expects.

This anime is too wholesome, it's been a long time since the last timw i was so enjoyed watching a show, moreover this show really deserves my standing applause, stay up late and watch it in one time session is really worth it, this anime is so simple but the audience is able to feel the storyline and the most loved one is the characters, i really love it.
The storyline is very well structured and the audience is really easy to catch it, it makes us feel comfortable to follow the show.
You will enjoy this show totally if ure a big fan of ... romance anime.
The heroine is really cute thou

Mixed Feelings

The style, direction and art of the anime is good. If you are into easy-going romances you can give it a try! However, some choices regarding the characters don’t sit right.

Akane is older than Yamada yet she is only portrayed as a cheerful hot mess. Her other personality traits are not very developed. Because of this, he is always the one saving her even though he is still in high school and the opportunity for a mature female lead is missed. The way they portrayed her as a drunk in need of attention more than once isn’t cute and other means to « deepen » they bond ... could of been explored.

Also, we have no development about some very agreeable second characters but some irrelevant random people get more backstory and even het to act as narrator in several episodes, which doesn’t add substance to the story.

Not Recommended

I personally don't like romantic genre that much. But if the story of romantic anime is beautiful and unique, then I'd like it. I've seen many romantic anime. Some of them are love stories which I enjoyed so much. Some of the love stories are boring and I don't like them and (My love story with Yamada-kun at Lv999) is one of them.
The reason I didn't like it, story wise I didn't find anything to draw me into it. The two main characters gradually get to know each other through the game and from there their relationship blossoms into love. A very simple love story. ... Where there was no love triangle, no plot and no extra story. Especially in a rom-com anime, I hope to see a new and unique story. But here I got none of that. Too much simple
But I don't know why many people liked this anime. Those who are normally romantic genre lovers might like any simple love story anime like this. But in my opinion it's not such a likable anime.
Talking about the characters, I found the female character a bit annoying. And the animation quality is average for me
