I also watched Gamers! I will say right now that it is what I will say is the most underrated show of 2017. Honestly about halfway through the show I laughed myself to tears. Never thought an anime about Gamers could be so hilarious. An episode equal to the most hilarious episodes I have seen like in Full Metal Panic Fumoffu and Baccano and others. I was just glad I was home alone at midnight laughing like a maniac and didn't wake anyone up, besides the kitten next to me.

Additionally all the game references were cool. Seeing FFXV in an anime was odd, and the conversations about games like that was quite interesting. The references to the consoles were cool with the controllers/ consoles of the PS4, Vita and even the Switch.

I loved Gamers!! I went into it expecting your typical rom-com show, ended up with something a lot closer to a western sit-com. Really hit all the right notes with me, and had me laughing out loud several times. Favorite part was the Amano's unintentional confession, with everyone coming up with convoluted scenarios in their head to explain everyone's reactions. It was like 8 minutes of basically nothing happening, and it was amazing.

That being said, the love triangle introduced at the end hurt the comedic pacing quite a bit, and the short-haired girl's sister was just terrible. Probably the main reason I feel so-so on a season 2, even if I loved season 1.

Favorite gaming reference was that final end card though...hehehe.
