Maou_heika said: I wish female otakus wouldn't always be represented as fuojos *sigh*. Same here. I’m sick of anime protraying female anime fans as fujoshis. |
| Okay first episode I guess, but I'm wondering if it was intentional for the first part to feel exactly like a high school anime but in an office setting? |
 |
| Feel like this series came a decade too late.. these days being an otaku are far more accepting to the public than it was back in the past, definitely not that much relatable anymore, especially how they overplayed being shunned just for being one. Not too fond of that forced relationship as well to be frank. Everything else is pretty great though, they paid real respect to the best girl Katou Megumi. |

| I already finished this series, hope it will get second season huu... |
| I found this episode stupid but cute. As long as I don't need to suffer through love triangles I'm okay with this. |
 |
| Good first episode. Props to the guy for manning up and taking initiative. I wonder where things will go from here. Didn't like OP but ED is cute. I like Halca. |
 |
| Good start for a first episode ^^ It was good! I am curious how this goes. Seems promissing ^w^ |

| SO MUCH OTAKU FEELS FOR THE FIRST EPISODE!!! ^-^ Narumi x Hirotaka = Relationship goals I also like the scene wherein Hanako is revealed to be a famous cosplayer. Hanako is so hot when she dresses up as a man. Tarō, on the other hand, seems so calm and chilled. |

| Interesting plot! |
 |
| Lmao nice, very relevant for me! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Imagine going to work on your first day without washing yourself or taking a shower. And wow, the main guy is literally me IRL, apart from his smoking and drinking habit. Pretty fun first episode. Main girl is a little annoying, but not unwatchably so. I do like the otaku at work theme, but not sure if the title is fitting since she's already solved her otaku issues in the very first episode. I guess I'll continue to watch to see what happens next. |
| Started dating is 1st episode? WHAT IS THIS MAGIC? |

| I appreciate any anime with adult characters living their boring adult lives....though the mc doesn't look like nor act like a 26 years old woman at all.... and the guy is the asshole who smokes around you even if you tell them to not do it... Still, I like the other two characters and I wonder what references they will drop... |
| Finally got around to watching this Anime, really enjoyed the first Episode. Didn't think he'd ask her out/they start dating so soon. Different to what I am used to and I like that so far. :) will def continue. |
"You think your power has limits, I say it's limitless." |
| A lazy first episode that can only try to keep us hooked with product placement and the promise of a relationship as fast as possible. Too bad these people are unfunny and annoying. We only know that she's an otaku because she said it. Over and over. Dropped. |

| What is dating?About dating I have zero experience.I never dated any girl.Wotakoi:Love is hard for OTAKU anime is pretty decent to watch.Narume loves playing games and she is a fangirl.Hirotaku plays games in free time and smoke cigarettes.Narume boyfriend breakup with her at first anniversary of their love after knowing she is an OTAKU.she tries hard to find a boyfriend of her type.hirotoku his childhood friend she never considered her type.Hirotaku invites narume to take part in upcoming contest?Does this two people ended up dating? |
 |
| Oh, so this is where the song (op) I keep hearing everywhere is from, lol. Man, love the concept of the show—great first episode. The MC reminds me of a mix of Chika (love is war) and Bocchi (Hitoribocchi). Not hating, but the CG is quite out there (knowing it's made by A-1 Pictures). Edit: also, a non-dense character that suggests to date in the first episode.... I'm in!!! |

| Romcom about otaku's at work seems interesting so far, especially since the usual romcom is about teens in school. Have to say that was one weird confession (or should I say deal?) between Hirotaka and Narumi. |
 |
| orange haired girl should get glasses because Hirotaka is beautiful xD |
 |
| Miyuki Sawashiro as sadist office lady? sign me the fuck up |
| Love how in a sea of hilariously named knockoffs, Monster Hunter consistently just shows up completely un-knocked-off in anime. **EDIt** oh they literally just screen-captured actual Monster Hunter gameplay and edited it into the show, didnt they... LMFAO, I mean if you can get away with it... |

| I laughed a lot in the first episode, I see a lot of potential in the anime! Very funny at the end of the episode, Hirotaka fawning over Narumi so they would date |

| Pretty good first episode, the animation is alright apart from those horrible CGI people in that one scene. Characters seem interesting and balanced with two males and two females. |
| I love how it doesn't feel like it's trying too hard; in the sense that it just wants to be simple, laid-back, and a real easy watch. And we've even got A-1 at the helm here, so as expected we get a solid production quality. Was aware of this title for a long time, but never actually picked it up because it didn't look like anything too special. And it really isn't; but it had the vibes I was looking for. Right now I'm in the mood for a more fun, light-hearted watch (been reading manga like chainsaw man and jujutsu kaisen so yeah), so I decided to scroll down the top most popular anime on MAL once again and look at anime that I may have missed. And lo and behold, there was Wotakoi, sitting at a very substantial nearly 850,000 members who have this on their lists. I had no idea it was THIS popular. Anyway, first episode down, it's simple, it's solid, and I'm looking forward to watching the other episodes. Looking to be probably a 7/10 anime for me. |

| What I like about this series is that you can easily find so many relatable details about people who deal with rl and enjoy gushing over anime/manga/videogames, and the fact that there are levels of how much people are engrossed about it, but in the end we all sort of understand ourselves. Soundrack is very catchy! And the fillers added on the episode were well done. So I guess this is a good start for Narumi and Hirotaka, though she’s too much pink for my liking ^^ but i’m looking forward for the future episodes. Ps, Hana is very gorgeous! |
 |
| Great first episode!!! I loved it!!! |
| after months i discovered this title from a italian youtuber lady expert in recaps, finally began this one. First thing i enjoyed was immediately noticing Tomokazu Sugita (and his character doesn't even look that distant in physical features from Gintoki Sakata) "will you attend Summer Comiket?" took by surprise as a question. It wasn't the only one, and the outcomes were unexpected. There is already some potential, wishing the work environment won't become toxic. |
(save your time and don't try to comfort when i rant on casual discussion or forum games, feel free to ignore me, i won't take it personally) |
| I would take hirotaka anyday, NO hesitation |
 |
| start of a convenient work couple .Happy that they kept anime purity bs aside. OP is fire too |
| Quite the way to start dating :D "You are hired!" Their faces are a bit weird |
