I dont think Im alone in the fact that one glance at the title of this anime sets off a lot of red flags. It seems like its going to be another creepy onesided wish fulfillment fantasy for otakus who cant get a girlfriend. You know what Im talking about. Thankfully it doesnt even hint to go in that direction. This anime is about four friends and all of them are nerds. Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii was written for nerds and the writers know their target audience well. Specially 20something year old nerds who have worked in an interactive workplace. Any working class nerd can probably relate to this: trying to find nerdy friends at work without being too obvious about it with the issue of other nerds doing the same thing. You want to relate to others about your passions but you also dont want to make yourself out to be the office weirdo. Although this is a romance between two of the characters its really about a group of four nerdy coworkers and what they do when they hang out together. The show isnt set over any specific period of time it just shows times when they hang out. Its a cute show and definitely worth a watch. Theres really not much to it but its cute. One of the best aspects of this show is that it doesnt explain anything. It assumes you are a nerd if youre watching this and doesnt explain any of the nerdy references or what theyre doing so I wouldnt recommend this if youre not into gaming anime manga or whatever. The fact that youre reading this review means that youre most likely at least one half the target audience. Congratulations Really my only gripe is that when I say this anime is about these four friends I mean that theres barely even other humans in this universe. The world feels hollow as episodes exclusively show times they hang out together. They do not interact with other people which would have been a great opportunity to flesh them out and see how they interact with acquaintances who arent nerds or friends. Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii isnt the best anime out there but if youre apart of its target audience 20something year old working class nerds I implore you to at least give it a shot. It definitely reminded me of how I met my work friends and got a few laughs out of me. The characters seem more realistic than most characters in this genre which surprised me.
