That must be a joke, because in the first place, The "Gamers!" in the title is only to lure for viewers, nothing more. The plot itself has nothing relatable to video games, this series is all about misunderstandings and a boring/generic romcom plot.
Let's start with the basics, the story is pretty bland, first 3 episodes do have a bit of game references and how the protagonists game and stuff. That's about it, after episode 4 the misunderstandings and the romcom start, but horribly. I understand the misunderstandings are the plot itself, but they are making it so they are slow paced and rather boring, at times it feels like filler when it obviously shouldn't be. It just feels like they are dragging it to at least make it up to 12 episodes because we haven't gotten any progress in the story so far, always at the same point, but it is a "slice of life". Althought, i wouldn't consider a slice of life.
My general problem with these misunderstandings is that they are all the same, i expected them to improvise a bit and make them different than each other, but they only spoil on how a one cheats on another when it doesn't really happen, blah, blah... Tell me, where's the creativity in that? In the end, the plot doesn't move on because of this.
Artwise, the animation is nothing special, but i don't really mind it. The designs are really good for the most part. Environments are quite good looking and scenarios are fitting. The colour palette is quite nice and vibrant too.
Sound/Music is top notch if you ask me, but i feel like the BGM does not fit with the scenes at times. VA are quite enjoyable, and really nice choice. The Op might be the only thing from this anime that includes Game references, the ED is enjoyable as well.
This is the other problem i have with most reviews and the series itself. There's nothing from the character development and behaviour that make me think "oh i act like that" "that has happened to me" "oh i hate that feeling", literally nothing. Well, i didn't think anything of that because, the character development is horse poop, like the only character we know a bit is Tendou, no one else had a "let me get to know thing" thingy were we see their daily lives and stuff. We are already at episode 10, and i would've loved to see a bit of storyline for the game club Tendou has, i would've loved to see more from the protagonists as child' and how they got into games (But, obviously that won't be possible, this isn't a series about gamers)
The whole premise was good, but not with an almost clickbait title "Gamers!", the series is just a generic romcom we see all seasons. Nothing new, nothing creative and nothing funny about it. I did wait quite some time to see if things would've gotten to the start point again, but nope, it's just the same over and over again. Edit: I'm dropping it, i'm just tired of this whole plot, it makes no sense. Lowered from 3 to 2 on overall.
