The anime you're watching is “Love is Hard for Otaku”.

There’s no mistake.

-MOVE FORWARD -QUIT

Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku

Now, let's get started

Where we left off yesterday

There's no pleasure without pain Let the story be

Getting out of the deep sea

Leaping to the flying city Now we can't get down

A plot with no coherence This story is one and only

Always remember the good times

Brace yourself for letdowns It'll come in handy

Gently, softly

Turning pages of the story Story

I let my emotions flow

Gently, softly

Turning pages of the story Story

It seems never-ending

Will it ever come to an end?

I have no clue

Too bad I don't

I’ve leveled up a lot these days.

I can beat the enemies in this area with a single hit now.

Here I go!

NARU LOGGED IN

I’m logged in now! Where are you?

I’m at the beginning of the forest area.

Oh! I see you!

Kabakura, thanks for your hard work.

Thanks--

But, we’re not at work here!

Oh, it’s just a habit...

Well, I understand...

She’s so cute.

So, you’re a swordsman! That really suits you!

It says a lot about his personality.

So, you’re an elf.

SHE'S SO CUTE.

Does that mean you’re from the summoner class?

Uh...

I liked how they swing fast...

I’m an assassin.

You’re from a scary class,

and you're at a high level.

She plays a lot more than I do.

Let’s pass on this one.

It hardly ever drops items anyway.

Kabakura! There’s lots of herbs over here!

She is so cute... What a waste...

Huh?

Did Hana-chan log in yet?

Oh. Koyanagi said she’d come after taking a bath.

Anyway, I didn’t expect that Hana-chan would

start playing online games.

I thought Hana-chan didn’t like games very much.

Well, yeah.

I was surprised when she asked me which online games she could play on a computer.

She might look stubborn, but she’s easily influenced by others.

Maybe seeing you guys made her jealous...

Really?

What did we do?

Thanks for waiting!

Oh! Your avatar’s so cute, Naru!

Hana-chan! Your avatar’s so sexy!

Let me take a screenshot!

Your screenshot has been saved.

You-- Isn’t that a paid costume!?

It’s okay. It’s free.

IT'S NOT REALLY FREE

By the way, where’s Nifuji?

Oh. We were chatting just now.

He said he’s coming later.

I thought he’d be the first one here.

Hirotaka doesn’t like online games that much.

Really?

He said he doesn’t like interacting with other people.

And that solo players are at a disadvantage in online games.

He’s just jealous because he’s a loner.

But he comes anyway when you invite him, right?

Well, yeah. He’s a game otaku!

I wish I could help Nifuji out here...

But, considering his everyday behavior...

It’s a rare enemy! What bad timing.

Even if Momose and I take the front,

Koyanagi’s level is too low to guard us by herself.

This isn’t going to work.

Let’s run away this time and move on!

But enemies like this don’t always show up! This is our chance!

-Rare drops! -You’re being blinded by money, Momose!

A swordsman running away!? What a disgrace!

You’re an assassin, right!?

It’s no use! Koyanagi, use support magic from the rear!

Why do you get to tell me what to do!?

You’re always talking down to me!

You’re the one who should just listen sometimes!

Uh...

Fight this guy over here instead!

NO WORK

What’s with that joke costume!?

Hirotaka!

Hey! Narumi!

And Kabakura and Koyanagi!

Hi!

It’s not Hirotaka!

That’s Nao’s voice!

Where’s Hirotaka!?

My brother said he’d come after recording an anime.

He told me to log in first.

-Is that the boss? -It’s the boss!

But Nifuji’s character is at the highest level.

Nao! Do you know how to control it?

I’m not really sure, but I’ll try!

Which one is for punching?

Which button did I press just now?

-It’s no good, Kabakura! -You’re right.

Anyway, I’m going over to you!

Be careful! The enemy’s target switched to you...

-Plop. -Hirotaka! I mean Nao!

I’ve never seen Nifuji look so uncool before.

Let me take a screenshot.

Are you okay!?

Oh no.

I didn’t bring any recovery items.

Oh! The herbs!

Oops! I ate them myself!

Calm down, Momose!

I don’t have a lot of MP left either.

Because you used it to attack me!

What are we going to do?

I just have to beat it without any damage, right?

If you can really do it, then show us!

Okay...

THANKS FOR WAITING

It’s over.

I haven’t played online games in a long time.

But, they are fun when you do play.

-Multiplayer games are the best! -You were solo just now!

Hey, let me play too!

No.

OH, THE PIZZA'S HERE. BE RIGHT BACK. WHAT!!?

Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku.

HANA-CHAN'S ASLEEP, KABAKURA! CALL UNTIL SHE WAKES UP!

Kabakura said he’s going drinking with Nifuji and his juniors tonight.

Kabakura is good at taking care of other people.

He just wants to drink.

Hey. Do you want to have dinner?

Oh. Sure!

Let’s have a heart-to-heart with just us girls tonight.

Sounds good!

Well...

Honestly, I was scared you were going to get mad.

-Why? -Sorry!

Uh...

I’ll have a beer.

I’m not mad or anything!

And some wasabi octopus.

Will that be all?

Yes.

Thanks.

Do I really look like I’m always mad?

Uh...

That’s not what I meant...

You have a scary-looking face, Kabakura...

And we can’t tell you.

You have a scary-looking face,

Kabakura...

Nifuji! You’re amazing!

Yeah, yeah.

I’m used to this stuff already.

Right...

-He really is cute on the inside. -Huh!?

That’s what someone else said.

-Oh my god. -You surprised me.

I didn’t know Nifuji tells jokes. I didn’t get it.

Oh... Her, huh?

BRAGS WHEN SHE'S NOT HERE

Nifuji, are you talking about Momose?

Oh yeah.

I watched that anime you told me about before.

Really? How was it?

It had a nice world view. It was good.

Right?

How many episodes did you watch?
