While it may sound dull, the process of compiling a dictionary and the struggles that go with it will probably open up a new perspective from viewers on things they usually take for granted. I, for one, never realized making a dictionary could be such an interesting (and also a pain in the ass) process. The interaction between the editors and their nuances are interesting to watch as each have their own issues to deal with without being complete emotards (like, you know, Ikari Shinji or that faggot from Your Lie in April).
I like the MC, Majime Mitsuya. He's an introvert yet doesn't have that emotard aura and he actually thinks about improving himself to mix better with people (and a particular girl! :3), as opposed to typical emotards who get help from everybody else without asking and attract a bunch of hot chicks for no good reason. He's one of the very few main characters that don't annoy me.
I like it because:
1. It's realistic, makes sense, and relatable.
2. No superpower, no archetypal formula mix of tsundere, megane, introvert, and shit, no 'genius' characters who always win, no weird fantasy, no tit/panty flashes, no moe; no nonsense.
3. I'm a sucker for such genre (see second sentence).
4. Amusing anecdotes by dictionary characters during episodes.
Complaints: Well, maybe one. The MC is too imperfect that he's too perfect for his role in his job. But I think that's exactly the beauty of the story. So, maybe not a complaint, after all.
It's a story purest of form that is meant to be enjoyed by mature audience. I hope you are convinced to watch this series and enjoy it as much as I do. :)
