Amazing and light hearted., 16 September 2008
10/10
Author: ein1983 from United Kingdom

The storyline is amazing and gives hope that even an Otaku can still have a chance with a beautiful girl. I found the story well written and the daily life of the Otaku very realistic when I compare them from this TV series to the actual Otaku that you find in Japan.

The characters are well played and the main character gave off a real presence that you often find lacks in most TV series.

This is one show I will remember for a long time and all the people I have introduced this show to have loved it.

The series only gets better as it progresses through each episode.

Plus you've gotta love the title song!
