The story revolves around a male student who becomes involved with a female anime fan, leading to a short but entertaining narrative filled with humor and romance between two otaku. While the premise is appealing, many reviewers note that the plot quickly shifts to overly sexualized content with minimal character development and lacks a central conflict. Overall, the story is described as cute and enjoyable, particularly for those interested in the R-18 content, but may not satisfy players seeking a deeper narrative experience.
“The story itself is very cute and sweet.”
“While the story isn't very long, it is enjoyable with a good portion of funny moments.”
“Very cute story, fun to read during your downtime.”
“If you want a story that goes directly to and includes a fair bit of steamier scenes, and not much else, this might be just for you, but would think twice otherwise.”
“As for the story, seeing as there is no villain in the story, there's virtually no point in actually reading it; I've only done it for the achievements.”
“- only 3 narrative choices in the game (yes, you're mainly here for the story).”
