Wotakoi: Love Is Hard For Otaku 1 (Wotakoi: Love is Hard For Otaku, #1)

by Fujita

Narumi and Hirotaka are, by all appearances, a power couple. They're young, good-looking professionals. But they have secrets from everyone but each other: they're serious geeks! Narumi is a fujoshi, and Hirotaka's a hardcore gamer. Their sweet, awkward love story started life as a webcomic before becoming a full-blown manga series by popular demand, and is about to become a major anime series!

**I received a copy from the publisher, via NetGalley, in exchange for my honest opinion.**

I requested Wotakoi because I thought the cover was cute. I’m also totally into glasses-wearing manga guys, especially when they look like they could pass for masculine-of-center women. It’s just my weak spot, alright? 😳 I also love manga and try to take advantage of first-in-series reading opportunities when they arise because #2 may excite me, but I’ll still have to read #1 first. I dislike reading out of order when I can help it!

Twice, I’ve read this book, the first time being in April, but I didn’t get around to writing up a proper review. I don’t know why, although I do surmise it was because I didn’t understand the sorting of volumes for the English translation, which puts two volumes in each book. The second time was a week ago after watching the anime, which I loved despite it containing several spoilers for book #2, which I have yet to get my hands on at all.
