I am going to keep it simple and without any (important) spoilers.
I am writing this review in the hope that it would save some people from the pain of watching this anime.
I watched this thinking that it was a good anime with a painful story but the anime is simply painful to watch. Assuming you read the synopsis. Let me conform:
-The story has no ups. It is 12 episodes about the gloomy life of a gloomy person.
-Every episode is about how she plans to become popular and the plans never work out.
-The plans are stupid. And she has no guts to start a conversation.
-It is understandable to hesitate a few times but every episode is about her failing at conversing. The anime ends without her ever succeeding.
-In the end the MC is a sad character who can only think of becoming popular (esp. with guys). But she can not go and talk to people upfront.
-The only way you can like the anime is if you somehow find it funny instead of irritating.
-The best thing about the anime is the OP song (not that it is great. more like it is interesting).
-This anime does not come close to Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru or Welcome to the NHK. Don't watch this just because you liked any of these anime. And if you din't like them then definitely do not watch this.
-This is also nothing like Kami Nomi. The gaming part is not an essential part of her character. And the MC's are very different.
-Still, if you want to watch this anime you can. At least it will be a new experience. i.e. a new experience of pain.
