Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki is a gamer who is ranked 1 in the popular fighting game TackFam. He defeats his classmate Nakumura, who is arrogant and blames the game, characters, and matchups. Tomozaki proves it's a matter of skill, talent, and effort, even with the worst matchups. He takes pride in his devotion to the game and refuses to accept baseless slander from someone who hasn't put in the work.
In contrast, Tomozaki's first interaction with Hinami reveals that he is Nakumura in TackFam, blaming others for his personal woes and believing there is a social hierarchy he can't break free from. He believes that some people are born better than others, and this point of view is directed towards TackFam. Tomozaki's hypocrisy is demonstrated when he rebukes the point of view directed towards TackFam, proving that it's not different in reality. The show's main focus is on Tomozaki's dedication to the game and his ability to overcome challenges.

In short, for those who have watched 'Saekano: How to raise a boring Girlfriend',
This anime could be named as "How to raise a Boring Gamer Boyfriend".
But it is enjoyable and funny. In many scenes you can relate with the awkwardness of the main character Tomozaki. The characters are all likeable.
This anime has everything to be a good anime: decent story, good pace, nice animations and last but no the least 'Kawai Girls'.
So give it a watch...you'll understand in the first episode if this anime is for you.

Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki surprised me with how grounded and realistic it felt, despite being set in a high school anime world. What starts off like a typical gamer-loner story turns into something much deeper - a personal journey about growth, self-awareness, and navigating social dynamics.
Tomozaki is a relatable protagonist for anyone who's struggled with confidence or fitting in. His transformation is believable, not rushed, and it doesn't pretend that socializing is easy. What I liked most was how the show didn't make "popularity" the goal, but rather focused on becoming a better version of yourself.
The characters around him, especially Aoi Hinami, are more complex than they first appear. The writing slowly unpacks their motivations in a way that keeps you hooked. There are moments of humor, warmth, and even frustration - but that's what makes it real.
Animation and voice acting were solid, with just enough style to keep it visually interesting without distracting from the message. Overall, this is one of those anime series that quietly leaves an impact. If you're into character-driven stories with real growth, give this one a shot.

Animation is pretty good ...story gets better with each episode ....the MC sticks to his ideals of being honest but also improves in life simultaneously ... definitely needs a S2 :)
You can watch it but you have keep your hopes very low. Its storyline first goes fast then gets slow. Its not very interesting. And i don't think it is romcom anime. Its only romance anime. I suggest watch it but don't keep high hopes you won't enjoy it.
