| Cloudman said: Okay, the User Recommended section has been updated with genre listings and summaries! If there is anything wrong with the listings or summaries, feel free to let me know and I'll change it  Also, read Watashi no Koi wa Muzukashi, and I really enjoyed it. It's funny and very relate-able. The main characters are like normal working people who have similar hobbies to people on the site like games, comics, collecting things, etc, and they talk about and reference games, which makes it funny when you get them. Also, seeing the main 2 characters chat with each other is very funny. The main girl is actually very loud, expressive and seems almost more of a nerd than the guy. It's really funny to see xD |
Honestly, I get kind of happy just finding a manga where the characters aren't in middle shcool or high school. That's somewhat rare for a 'real world' manga. Besides that, though the characters certainly qualify as otaku, it doesn't exaggerate that factor to a ridiculous degree. That lets me relate to them, as you said. I'm not on the same level as either of them but I can understand pretty much where they're coming from. I mean, I know I don't really want to chat about the moe goodness of Yuru Yuri at work.
It's also interesting that the manga has already established that the prefered type for each character is that of their friend's significant other.
Male lead - likes big boobs, ends up with flat girlfrield
Male lead's friend - likes small and cute girls, ends up with abrasive girl with large breasts
Female lead - says male lead's friend is hotter than her boyfriend
Female lead's friend - praises male lead and says she's somewhat jealous
Pretty sure this theme is going to keep popping up.
