A CEman recommended it to me a long time ago and I finally decided to give it a watch since I have nothing to do before Pirate Yakuza comes out. I'm halfway through it so far and it's pretty funny and has a lot of cringey humor which I think is pretty great (...some of it is a little too relatable from when I was in middle/high school >___>). Definitely had to pause at least once an episode to regain my composure from the impending cringe on screen lol

I like it. It's just about a socially awkward otaku high schooler doing socially awkward things and trying figure out how to act normal, either by taking inspirations from anime/video games (which doesn't work lol) or trying to intuit how to act on her own (which also doesn't work lol). The brother is pretty funny with how much he's sick of her bullshit >_>

Yes, there is some hornyposting humor, but it's more of an occasional flavor to help make things more cringey and awkward instead of being the focal point

I watched this years ago, and the only thing I really remember is the scene where her mom walks in on her editing the voice clip she recorded and both of them just waiting for the whole nasty thing to finish. It was too much, just way too much!

...I've been tempted to try reading the manga since I heard it eventually evolved into a yuri harem or something~

lol, I had to pause once I realized what was happening with that. Also had to pause when her dad walked in on her asleep in front of the TV while a yaoi game was on screen >_>

Does the manga really turn into that? wat da fuck

On a similar note, I'm watching Welcome to the NHK for the first time. It's pretty solid, although I didn't expect it to be so horny lol. The description makes it seem like it would be drenched in paranoia and conspiracy theories but it's a pretty grounded narrative.

Tomoko is about to make a heartfelt talk to her classmate.

Right when she's about to, a strong wind blows and hornyposting shenanigans happen for a second.

Tomoko is too enamored to do anything and runs away

Oh anime lol. Never change.

The funny thing is the OVA was released well before the manga become yuri-bait.

I highly recommend reading the early and mid parts of the manga, its really good. If I recall the the anime only covers about the first 30 chapters and I remember the manga remaining great until about chapter 150.

Eventually Tomoko essentially becomes a side character though and it focuses on a bunch of lame drama shit instead of funny cringe humor. I stopped reading it then.

The best/worst thing about the show is indeed when it starts to hit too close to home. It helps the character feel more pitiable while at the same time really making it hard for some people to watch.

There's definitely like 3 or 4 moments in this show where my awkward middle school self was displayed on the screen and made the cringe that much worse lol. Gotta face your demons >_>

Alright, finished the all the episodes and the OVA. I liked it! It was a fun watch: lots of funny cringe, lots of hornyposting humor (which I love), and a fun story. One thing I liked is how much it subverses anime tropes, like Tomoko will try something from an anime and it just backfires spectacularly everytime lol. Otherwise it's just a socially awkward girl doing socially awkward things and I love it.

Definitely recommend it to CE, it's pretty short and a fun watch.

My only real complaint with the show is that there isnt really an ending. It just sorta stops >_> I know there's a manga that was ongoing at the time, but Shimoneta and Prison School for example, both had endings that closed out the arc and left it slightly open for more (which didnt happen), but still felt like a complete story when self-contained.
