Have you read the synopsis of this anime? It says "This is a story filled with a non-stop sequence of comedy scenes and misunderstandings. Our chaotic romantic comedy now begins!" and that's exactly what we're getting. Although I find all the misunderstandings not very amusing myself you can't blame author if that's what he wants to write. And I do believe it's one of the good comedies of this season.


Not sure if the synopsis was edited since before started airing, but i never recall reading "a non-stop sequence of comedy scenes and *misunderstandings*." Might have missed it, however with that said. The first few episodes have a very different feel to them than the rest of the show. It just become a bunch of dense characters with no communication skill, I had hopes for it, but i can't call their comedy good, but then again there isn't really any good comedy this season, so wont be hard to become one of the best.


Considering it's an adaptation I don't think they would change the synopsis. Original work started long before anime so it's not a surprise that plot went this direction but I'm not sure if they changed it or not either.

After I wrote that it's one of the good one I checked it myself and found out of 22 anime I watch this season only 3 of them are what I'd call comedy. I would put this one over Aho Girl definietely but I think Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama-kun is better. Yeah it's not a fierce competition but I'd call it 2nd best comedy of the season. Also regardless of other anime first few minutes of this episode was hilarious.

This series is a real tough watch it's exhausting with all those misunderstandings. If feels the auther rant out of ideas and is just using cheap melodrama to spice things up. Have to say as a rom com its pretty poor and not very funny.

Also please Japan STOP using female voice actresses to voice 15 year old boys. It makes then sound like six year olds. Thier balls do drop you know!

Mate, remember that this series is made for japanese people so they do find it amusing.
I for one aint complaining.



Yeah that's why I said "I find the misunderstandings not very amusing" not "this show is not very amusing". Almost everybody and every culture likes different things and I respect that. Also it's not that I'm complaining. I find this anime amusing enough despite the parts that I don't enjoy and these misunderstandings are a big part of why this anime works.

Thanks for telling me this, but i wont be bracing for anything. Being told that this will go on instantly made it clear that i am going to drop this show. Biggest let down this year, I was expecting comedy, not this continuation of intense frustation.

The show started of with the intend to focus on games, with the introduction of the game club and their different tastes in games. Then after a bit it seemed like the author forgot about his own story and turned it into a pointless drama that would have been resolved if anyone actually talked to each other. Which they did last episode, clearing up their misunderstandings. But nooooo lets add to that crap pile of a useless plot device. 2/10


First of all, nope you are wrong. On last episode they did not talk about the misunderstanding nor cleared it. Just because you saw Tasuku and Aguri cuddling with each other does not mean their talked and clear it. They are a couple, is what couples do. And later on in the series is when they talk about it and clear them and is shown when they do so.
YOU misunderstood

Sorry mate, but you fell into the common hook trap in market.
First of all this an anime adaptation of a novel. If you havent read the novel then you will not get it.
The story started to focus on games? Yeah that is the first misunderstanding trap of all. Because ever since the beginning, ever since episode one, ever since that moment of club introduction the misunderstandings began. And you have to be an observer to view it. Since the begining they showed that the show was an exageration of misunderstandings but you just focused on the games because of how many gaming shows are out there.
You can start seen the misunderstandings by Amano's inner dialog, but the novel enters into more detail. I read the novel so i understood right away. The anime skips a few aspects sadly because of time. Also Japanese people had read the novel so they know what the series is about.

Dropping it?
How disapointing that you cant appreciate the beauty of this series. Oh well, this series was made in japan FOR japanese people so they understand. You droping it will make no diference.
I think you have the impression that anime was made for you or for the west. Sorry but anime and manga are made for japanese people and japanese people only, we are just collatheral.
Do you think them companies care? On contrair, they complain we are riping their series and not paying to watch then with stealing their shows that we watch for free.
So stop you complains and give thanks that we at least get to see them.
By the way, this show is really popular in japan, so popular that funimation decided to buy the rights for dubbing to bring it to the west, else funimation would not had bothered.

So you not liking the show? Who cares. There is the exit. I will keep watching this until the end and keep reading the novel.I am sick and tired of people like you who takes anime, manga and games for granted and that they have to be made to your liking. YOU ARE NOT JAPANESE! The show WAS NOT made for you.
And just because you dont understand or misunderstand what the shownis about (that didnt even bothered TO READ the show's description) have no right to trash talk this show or call the show lame.
You dont like it (because you dont understand it), then stop watching it and go away and dont trash talk.
I would like to see how you would complain once Japan cuts off shows to your country (like they already done to some countries).
Remember that you (and everyone) are watching this for free from a stolen source, SO STOP COMPLAINING!


Wait what.. What with the endless attempts at personal insults, rather a low way to go about it. You are right i didn't read the novel so of course i wont have the understandings given in the novels which aren't given in the anime. But stolen sources? I am paying to watch it from a legal source. It is called Crunchyroll. I already admitted to not having read the synopsis accurately, however that doesn't take away from my personal view of the anime which you apparently take very person. I have not complained about this series before now, and I already mentioned that i will drop it.
You are right, my personal opinion of the show have absolutely no impact on the creators at this point, but you are taking critic to a show you obviously like (all the power to you) a little too personal.
I never fooled myself into thinking i was their target audience and i am well aware that i am not Japanese thanks for the reminder.

And for what i meant with the misunderstandings clearing up, while they might not have said it verbally, the couples went from jealous to caring. They questioned if their original assumptions was correct.

The reason I stayed with it for this long was because that the comedy had potential when it wasn't entangled with the misunderstandings. I don't watch neither Aho Girl nor Keppeki Danshi! Aoyama-kun. So for me the Comedy this season is basically non existent. the only ones being Tsurezure Children and Gamers!

Fun episode as always.
Chiaki was super adorable this episode. <3

I didn't really liked how he lied about her online persona and told Keita that it was her sister, on the other hand I do like Konoha a lot. She's cute too especially when she's playing eroge. XD

That ending though, this is gonna be chaotic. XD
I can only imagine what Tendou's reaction would've been to all this. xD

These end cards are amazing.

It's confirmed, Uehara is a manifestation of the fans/shippers. His change in ship is perfectly timed with fans now shipping Amana and Chiaki.

That scene where Chiaki goes into her room and reads through old messages that Amano sent her in game was adorable, you can tell just by her expression in that scene how smitten she is with him now.

Also Konoha almost getting caught mid fap xD

This episode was disappointing: in this epidose the series turned from a romantic comedy to a (funny) melodrama. The misunderstandings of this episode didn't feel funny & silly, like in previous episodes, but rather forced & dumb...

Also, the new ED reflects this: it's all cold & sad colours instead of the poppy & happy colours of the previous ED.

Lastly, I don't care at all about Chaiki's sister. It's not that I hate her, but I rather watch the other characters that I care about instead of someone that was added just because.


Because this is a pause of all the chaos that happened before as a breathing for the next spin cycle.

Btw, Konaha is a support character introduced in volume 2 of the novel so she is actually part of the character roster.



I belive that the "calm before the storm" part would be episode 7 (the date episode) and this episode would be the begginning of "the storm" itself.

"...Btw, Konaha is a support character introduced in volume 2 of the novel so she is actually part of the character roster..."
And yes, I figure that. But what I ment with that was what does she brings to the table? The messy pentagram was fine and hilarious with characters that I loved, and now this girl shows up and becomes a part of the pentagram/ relationship... I'd prefer her as a minor character like the gamer's club members instead of a somewhat important character.

And "...she is actually part of the character roster..." made me laugh a lot xD.
As if she was a character of a fighting game... in an anime about games...
I'd give you an upvote if that was possible.

Normally, the amount of episode they say it's gonna get is what it gets. I've never seen the exception.


I've seen that exception a lot. Last time I recall Granblue Fantasy listed with 14 episodes, it ended up with 13.
A show can decrease its episode count but not increase it. For Granblue's case, it was supposed to be 14 episodes, but because of broadcasting issues, they're releasing the unreleased episode as an OVA bundled with the BDs. Since anime production tends to start half a year before a series starts airing, if Gamers were to have more than 12 episodes, they would've been working on these episodes for a long time. And besides, Gamers was announced to have 6 BD volumes, with each volume having two episodes (so 12 episodes total).

Story is about misunderstandings, not about games. What did you expect?
Did you really think the story was about games?

HaXXspetten said:
I don't really understand why Chiaki didn't just admit it at that point. Or more importantly why would Konoha even accept the situation that was suddenly forced upon her? Clearly it's going to be nothing but a pain in the ass for her. Think Chiaki's getting a bit too selfish just to circumvent spilling the beans due to embarrassment. If I was in Konoha's position I'd just tell Amano the truth

Because cbiaki doesnt want to admit to herself to her feekings and want to ignore it. Letting Amano know means their relationship will change and he will see her different and chiaki does t want to get close to amano, she fears the change.
She is in the crosspoint to decide: she hates him or loves him.
And women sometimes get idiotic like that, specially japanese ones. And dont call me sexist because there is a lot of proof of women making those decisions and reacting like chiaki did.


I'm gonna have to say that is sexist because a lot of guys would do the same thing.

Well, yes. But I always related "roster" with fighting games and "cast" with shows/ movies/ etc. You're not wrong or anything, I just found it funny.

I knew Chiaki being revealed as Mono this soon was too good to be true. A bit of a boring episode though. Wish Uehara wasn't such a dumbass when it comes to pulling the strings behind the scenes, he made things even worse at the end.

I am disappointed that Chiaki hasn't changed all that much, she's just a tad more tsundere.

Ignore the comment. Being a fan of something is fine, but I think his comment was kind of an overboard reaction towards you not liking the story. (Kind of weird too, since they've dropped a lot of shows as well)

You're justified in your feelings, just like they're justified with theirs.

I've never read the novel either, but I too thought that this would have more gaming stuff in it and not be full romance shenanigans. I realize now that this isn't the case. But this is something that I think a lot of anime only viewers felt when they first watched the show.

(Note to @RandomCritic - while I don't like the show as much as I did, I'm still watching it. So me defending Ziirf isn't because I'm a fellow dropper of the show. I just think you went overboard for an opinion that is just as much valid as yours. It's okay to defend things, but going about it the way you did just comes off as obnoxious more than anything. I don't mean any offense to this, but work on your debate skills a bit before resorting to insults and putting people down for their views.)

@MonoJuMal
Two points: 1) I am a devil's advocate. And i am tired of people belittle a show just because they show views they dont understand and puts down the series because of it.
2) I do not know where you and that person came with the idea of me insulting him or her. I do not recall calling names or insulting words. I only recall throwing facts and speaking in a strong tone.
If that person felt ofended is another 5 cents. But i personally see not insulting them.
Unless my definition of insulting someone is different from yours.

You can start seen the misunderstandings by Amano's inner dialog, but the novel enters into more detail. I read the novel so i understood right away. The anime skips a few aspects sadly because of time. Also Japanese people had read the novel so they know what the series is about.

Dropping it?
How disapointing that you cant appreciate the beauty of this series. Oh well, this series was made in japan FOR japanese people so they understand. You droping it will make no diference.
I think you have the impression that anime was made for you or for the west. Sorry but anime and manga are made for japanese people and japanese people only, we are just collatheral.
Do you think them companies care? On contrair, they complain we are riping their series and not paying to watch then with stealing their shows that we watch for free.
So stop you complains and give thanks that we at least get to see them.
By the way, this show is really popular in japan, so popular that funimation decided to buy the rights for dubbing to bring it to the west, else funimation would not had bothered.

So you not liking the show? Who cares. There is the exit. I will keep watching this until the end and keep reading the novel.I am sick and tired of people like you who takes anime, manga and games for granted and that they have to be made to your liking. YOU ARE NOT JAPANESE! The show WAS NOT made for you.
And just because you dont understand or misunderstand what the shownis about (that didnt even bothered TO READ the show's description) have no right to trash talk this show or call the show lame.
You dont like it (because you dont understand it), then stop watching it and go away and dont trash talk.
I would like to see how you would complain once Japan cuts off shows to your country (like they already done to some countries).
Remember that you (and everyone) are watching this for free from a stolen source, SO STOP COMPLAINING!

@mandorallen
Mate, remember that this series is made for japanese people so they do find it amusing.
I for one aint complaining.

Perhaps, but then i think they may have seasons then because i do not think 12 episodes is enough to cover the light novel. Also the light novel is not over yet.


Well I agree with what you said. Animes and mangas are made for the Japanese people. So until the series finishs and profits aren't so good, our opinion doesn't mean sh*t. Maybe if there's a huge collected movement like what happened for Big O and cause the Spice and Wolf light novel to resumed, our opinions won't come to anything especially since most animes are made from LNs, mangas, VNs or some kind of game. If it's an original series, then that's different.

I belive that the "calm before the storm" part would be episode 7 (the date episode) and this episode would be the begginning of "the storm" itself.

Oh mate... Worst things are coming. But i do nit know if the anime will cover all of it.

"...Btw, Konaha is a support character introduced in volume 2 of the novel so she is actually part of the character roster..."
And yes, I figure that. But what I ment with that was what does she brings to the table? The messy pentagram was fine and hilarious with characters that I loved, and now this girl shows up and becomes a part of the pentagram/ relationship... I'd prefer her as a minor character like the gamer's club members instead of a somewhat important character.

She actually brings a couple of things actually:



Thnx but I'd rather not read spoilers hehe. Thnx again for hiding them.


Actually is not that mayor of spoiler its just common sense points. It will not spoil the story if that worries you.

Oh sorry, the button "Show spoilers" scared me a little xD.

And, having read both points, I don't consider them as spoilers but, tbh, I didn't expect them.

My main concern was Konoha's Exercise, spent most of the episode thinking of it and if it wasn't for the new misunderstanding, I could've even write an article about how nice would it be to help her in many ways.

Thanks for telling me this, but i wont be bracing for anything. Being told that this will go on instantly made it clear that i am going to drop this show. Biggest let down this year, I was expecting comedy, not this continuation of intense frustation.

The show started of with the intend to focus on games, with the introduction of the game club and their different tastes in games. Then after a bit it seemed like the author forgot about his own story and turned it into a pointless drama that would have been resolved if anyone actually talked to each other. Which they did last episode, clearing up their misunderstandings. But nooooo lets add to that crap pile of a useless plot device. 2/10


First of all, nope you are wrong. On last episode they did not talk about the misunderstanding nor cleared it. Just because you saw Tasuku and Aguri cuddling with each other does not mean their talked and clear it. They are a couple, is what couples do. And later on in the series is when they talk about it and clear them and is shown when they do so.
YOU misunderstood

Sorry mate, but you fell into the common hook trap in market.
First of all this an anime adaptation of a novel. If you havent read the novel then you will not get it.
The story started to focus on games? Yeah that is the first misunderstanding trap of all. Because ever since the beginning, ever since episode one, ever since that moment of club introduction the misunderstandings began. And you have to be an observer to view it. Since the begining they showed that the show was an exageration of misunderstandings but you just focused on the games because of how many gaming shows are out there.

Two points: 1) I am a devil's advocate. And i am tired of people belittle a show just because they show views they dont understand and puts down the series because of it.
2) I do not know where you and that person came with the idea of me insulting him or her. I do not recall calling names or insulting words. I only recall throwing facts and speaking in a strong tone.
If that person felt ofended is another 5 cents. But i personally see not insulting them.
Unless my definition of insulting someone is different from yours.
Forgive me, i am not american nor english speaker.


..

No worries, I'm not American either :p

I think you worded your initial post a bit too strongly. While it's true that the novel/anime is geared for a Japanese audience first, by bringing it up you are downplaying the other person's views. When you said, "How disapointing that you cant appreciate the beauty of this series." It reads like you're insulting the other user's intelligence, even though you didn't use foul words towards them.

You're passionate about Gamers! Which is fine, but it came across as rude instead of a civil discussion of sorts.

People will hate things or find ways to dislike shows for reasons that may or may not make sense, but that's the fun in discussions. As long as no one is being rude, then differences of opinion is and should always be welcomed. If you like it then it shouldn't matter what others think. :)

Anyways, I hope you're not offended by my words as I meant no offense.

Last episode we seemed to clear up most of the confusion and misunderstandings ... only to make room for MORE CONFUSION AND MISUNDERSTANDINGS! YAY!....

It's getting so damn frustrating...


also, how did Amano and Konoha not see each other in the store until they got to the register?... granted he was in the PZ Tiva section and she was in the PC section but still... that store doesn't seem that big...

Three episodes left to clear up the new batch of confusion though. They better not leave us with a giant cliff hanger.

No biggy mate. And i take no ofense since all you are doing is making an observation.

On a general note:

I think 12 episodes is too short for the series to cover the novel so far. I was expecting at least 20.
I guess anime writers want to end the series with the scene:

So Konaha has gotten into the mess as well even if she didn't want to.
it was funny that she got found out buying eroge tho and the way she is trying to keep it hidden is funny as well.
Anyway the sisters made things even more complicated for themselves.


lol was konaha masterbating while playing the eroge in between the episode when chiaki called her

Chiaki should have revealed to Keita that she was both Nobe and Mono. Now, she and her sister have to lie to him about it which is kinda sad and annoying.

The anime becomes too complicated with each episode and loses grace in some moments, I think the drama between characters is too much forced generating many sharp turns in history, are simply stupid changes without any sense.

In spite of this I don't deny that I'm very interested and intrigued to watch how the problems and misunderstandings between each character are solved, since it's a story that looks quite simple but at the same time beautiful.

Good episode.
4/5
