| Well, that was quite the strange episode to sign off with, to say the least. First half with the backstory was quite touching but it kind of felt a little out of place too, if I'm to be brutally honest here. I wonder if this elderly sister figure appears in the novels following this point, it would certainly make for an interesting moment I reckon. Poor authors getting the short end of the stick when it comes to realistic games too, lol. A few funny moments here and there but I think this was one of the lesser entertaining board game scenes of the show. And the truth behind the anime adaption is out, as well. Quite the gamble, this. I'm really curious to know how things turn out... Nice little moment with Nayu blushing too, I feared that they might've ignored the last episode's spicy moments towards the end but thankfully not. I'm sure they'll eventually get together though so here's to hoping for a sequel so we anime-onlies can get a taste of it too. As for the whole show in general, it's a mixed bag for me. Some episodes were really entertaining and then there were a few which was more or less fan-service which didn't always click for me. Coupled with the open-ended conclusion, my final impression comes down to a "Fine" so it's a solid 6/10 from here. Drama and touch of harsh realism was probably the take-away of the show for me. Sad that we haven't gotten a clear picture of that just yet but it was enough to keep me engaged and the classy use of the Op/ED were pretty cool too. Miyako-san and Nayu fanservice moments though, it's hilarious how natural it has become between the two. I wouldn't mind this route at all either for that matter, xD. Needed more Ashley-san moments as well, darn it lol. |

| Damn, the backstory with the elderly sister was quite touching; it explains Itsuki's imouto fetish. Suddenly, the OP makes a lot more sense. At the part where Itsuki becomes the main character, the song lyrics mentioned about how anyone can be the main character. I usually don't enjoy shows full of sex comedy, but this one was really special. 8/10. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| A flashback when Itsuki was still a kid and isn't writing and his childhood was mediocre at best but it all changed when the maid's daughter hangs out with Itsuki and that's where it all started I like it every time they play a game and It's an indie game about writers, I love how each of them has a chance to do what they choose at a much faster pace seems everyone is unhappy even though you're popular or rich that says a lot about what happiness really is Miyako might start to work as an editor I would love to see her work as an editor as well for Haruto to be exact and Nayuta is just happy knowing that Itsuki likes her I'm happy as well and Itsuki has a lot to do to make his work an anime pretty interesting show The only thing that I want is a good ending since this might be a cliffhanger I want another one of the parts of the series I loved it and I want to see more relationship build-ups I would love to see those two couples grow a lot of room for improvement but nonetheless I enjoyed this. |

| Hm.. Itsuki really thinks about himself in terms of being some kind of character?.. Main character, or side character.. To one person or another.. Well.. Unusual, but ok.. lol with how game is going.. The only conclusion you can make is that if you want to be happy.. You just don't become writer at all.. ;D Well.. Who knows.. I have no idea about writer market.. Overall, anime had both things I liked and some things I wasn't too much interested in.. Fantasy parts of anime - was not so interested.. Game parts - some were alright, some not so interesting.. But what I liked the most - characters thoughts, how they deal with some problems in their lives, their backstories.. Characters were the best part of this anime.. And only for first 3 episodes this anime already is a 10 for me.. Wished we'd go further into that.. But we went, where we went.. But what we had - was great.. Adult life topics, seinen material.. Meta anime and writing stuff.. Lots of relatable and interesting things.. Overall first half of the anime is much better than second one.. But that's for my personal preference.. |
-Stray said: What kind of ending is this? He didnt even find out that his so called lil step brother is actually a lil sister... This was such a weak ending... Yes indeed, felt the same, otherwise, enjoyable show, had some really funny episodes and for its title turned out to be much better than I first though, |

| Dude itsuki was literally singing "Roxanne... Roxanne..." Ending here is decent enough. But the previous episode 11 was more powerful and hit home harder. I'm glad that they didn't hold back on the lewd jokes, and that they gave us glimpses of some of the obstacles that novelists have to face. Comparing it to eromanga sensei again, it's a more real take on the manga entertainment industry (although shirobako still obviously takes the crown here, stuff like saekeno ain't got shit), it's more lewd, it's smarter, and above all, it's got legal loli's! But for some reason, I feel like I enjoyed eromanga sensei more than this. Despite everything it gaves us, it just makes me feel underwhelmed. I don't know why I'm not content, but I needed more of something. Maybe punches to the gut, just some more OOMPH. It deserves a decent score, perhaps a 7. But from how I feel, it's getting a 4/10 from me |

| That was a very good season finale, but a cliffhanger ending knowing we may not get a season 2. I guess I have no other choice but to read the light novels now. The episode starts off with Itsuki's backstory, and to be honest, it was kind of embarrassing but also embarrassing in a relatable kind of way, with Itsuki being rejected by his crush and not accepting it, forcing her out of his life. But this backstory was pretty important as it was what explained where his passion for little sisters came from in the first place and I was very happy that they chose the final episode to reveal this. This episode also played another board game where they simulated what it was like to be a light novel author and I honestly loved that and thought this board game was the most compelling out of all of the previous games they played as we got a lot more insight as to what it is like being a light novel writer. This episode also revealed that Miyako wants to be an editor officially, after subtly hinting towards it the last few episodes. Overall this was a very good episode, I look forward to reading the light novels now. |

| This ending didn't seem to be the last, I wanted to see him discovering that he had a younger sister, unfortunately I'll remain curious. The last episode was good, with a little game to distract, just so you don't run out of things to talk about. |
 |
| The anime lacked something, and that was probably passion for its premise, seeing how it never truly dove into the more particular details of working in the light novel industry, instead opting for what may as well be trifling commentary on it with a few moments of ancillary drama inbetween. Not an awful anime, but it gave the impression of trying to cover too many bases at once. |
