![]() ![]() ![]() The show occasionally leans on or breaks the fourth wall and lampshades what it's doing as part of its thorough audit of popular anime tropes. At the same time the viewer gets to enjoy the characters paralleling those tropes in their own lives. These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.Īs the fledgling game development team works to assemble itself and the dating sim they are creating, the in-universe characters discuss the many tropes the game is following, trying not to overuse, or outright violating. Overall I'd say this was a fun series that passes the time nicely without being too demanding. The characters are distinctive from each other but are otherwise fairly standard in appearance and the animation is pretty good although some scenes which should be full of movement are reduced to a series of stills a common way to save money but a little disappointing when it happens in what should be a memorable scene in the final episode. There is some fan service, especially in 'episode zero' which is almost a spoof of the series that follows, it isn't excessive though. The story is decent but definitely played for laughs this does not do for dating sim creators what Shirobako does for anime creators and the fact that both series aired at the same time will lead to some inevitable comparisons. This is a fun little series with fairly likable characters it is also a harem show with all that entails so expect misunderstandings between Tomoya and the girls and a few suggestive moments. ![]() Over the course of the series they will struggle to come up with a good story line, rush to meet deadlines and set about recruiting somebody to provide the game's music. At around this time he bumps into the mystery girl again she is Megumi Kato, a girl who actually goes to his school but who is ignored by just about everybody else. He knows he can't make it on his own so sets about recruiting those with the talents he needs Eriri, to do the illustrations and Utaha, who will right the game scenarios. He has no idea who she is but that doesn't stop starting to create his game. He is inspired to do this by a chance meeting with a beautiful girl as he walked down the street. Tomoya Aki is an otaku, one obsessed with anime, manga, visual novels and such like, and he plans to create a dating sim of his own. ![]()
