The only thing likable about this anime is the chibi form of the main character.

Story:
-Umaru-chan is the perfect high school girl. Perfect scores on every test and perfect social skills. At home, however, she turns into a a lazy, whiny gamer.

-Taihei is Umaru's older brother who takes care of her. He's constantly annoyed with Umaru because she is always pestering Taihei to buy the latest video games for her. Taihei is also the only one earning the money for them to live.

-Nana Ebina, the only person in the anime that has any sort of character whatsoever. She's shy, and fits the stereotype of "Big breasted girl is paranoid about people looking at her big breasts" She also moved away from her home town, so she has to carefully think about what she says before she says it so that her accent doesn't slip.

The art style is bland and generic. Not original at all. The music is also terrible.

Here's a summary of every episode:
"Onii-chan, buy me the video game" "no" "b-but Onii-chan, I want the video game" "no" "WAAAAAAAH" "OKAY HERE'S YOUR VIDEO GAME"

There's no pay off at the end. You think that Umaru is going to reveal that she has this "gamer" side to her friends at the end. BUT SHE DOESN'T REVEAL IT AT THE END. It ends the exact way it started. The anime would also have you believe that at some point, Taihei would stand up to Umaru and not buy her the video game that she wants. WRONG. Taihei keeps buying her video games

Conclusion:
Think Watamote, but instead of a top tier waifu girl who you root for the entire season, you have a whiny, bratty girl who will stop at NOTHING to get her video games. The anime gets stale after the second episode.
