Preliminary (6/11 eps)
Wotaku no Koi wa Muzukashii is a rom-com anime that all otakus can relate to. It is an anime adaptation of a manga of the same name. This review contains as little spoilers as it can,
Story: 7/10
Wotaku dosen't really have a deep story line (just ike every other rom-com) however it handles the theme really well. The story is properly paced and very much relatable to any adult otaku who tries his best to fit in with the society and his struggle to find other otakus who share the same tastes as him. The story however dosen't dig deep into the romance as much as it should. Questions are raised on why otakus tend to date other otakus and I would like more such questions to be raised.
The story has followed the manga without deviating till now.
Art: 7/10
Wotaku dosen't have any better art than the story needs. The art is pretty neat but could be better. Considering the art budget of a not very demanding series such as this, the art gets a 7.
Sound: 7/10
The music used in this series is mild just like it should be. The OST is good but would have played out better if it was a bit more catchy.
Character: 9/10
What I love about Wotaku are its characters. In a series such as this one, characters probably play the most important role. The manga has done a pretty good job on the characters which has been properly followed in the anime. The development of characters is a bit shallow but you can't really complain much about that in a comedy oriented rom-com.
Enjoyment: 10/10
I can't guarantee anyone reading this review the same 10/10 in this category. I have given a solid 10 here just because of the season in which it aired. In a season that contains some of the most anticipated series, Wotaku serves as relief from all the other heated story lines. Though there are two other series of the same caliber: Hinamatsuri and Tada-kun wa Koi wo Shinai, in my opinion Wotaku does it best. The series has me waiting for an episode every week.
Wotaku is certainly the best rom-com this season and probably one my all time favourites. I rate this anime 8 out of 10 overall.
Note:This is my first detailed review on MAL. Suggestions are welcome!
