Otaku ni Koi wa Hanaku" Episode 5: Hirotaka, this is no time to be playing all-night games!　Who's that guy? !!!!!

Narumi is an office worker who is secretly a rotten girl, and Hirotaka is a serious video game otaku. The romance between the two is a new type of romantic comedy that portrays otaku romance in a positive light. This is a new type of romantic comedy that portrays otaku love in a positive light. This is "Otaku ni koi wa dakunai" ("It's hard to fall in love with an otaku"). Here are our impressions of episode 5.

At the end of the first episode, Hirotaka's proposal, "Why don't you just go with me? The heroine, Narumi, immediately decided to accept Hirotake's proposal. In the second episode, three out of the four members of the group were more interested in enjoying the trophies than eating with their fellow otaku, which made us feel very close to them. In the third episode, the two go to an event together, and the spidery Hirotaka is asked by his mob uncle, "Hey brother...how do you feel right now? And even though it's their first sleepover, they invite their senpai to join them in a mariachi cart, betraying the author's expectations.
In addition, in episode 4, the senpai's lover's quarrel was shown for a long time, which made me think, "Oh my God, I can't do this..." So, what about this week's "wotakoi"?
⇒What do you think of this week's "Wotakoi"?
⇒Report on Episode 2
⇒ Comments on the 3rd and 4th episodes

Narumi notices Hirotake's ear piercing mark after all this time, which made us think "Oh, there's a little progress? The story is too much business as usual, representing the hearts of all otaku who want to be a child forever surrounded by their favorite toys, and is a stable start that has nothing to do with the main story.

There is no end to the number of tsukkomi in this film, so let's skip this part for now and finally get to the main part of the film.

Narumi is having lunch with his girlfriend (I've been wondering why Narumi has been eating sandwiches for lunch all this time), but when Narumi becomes suspicious when he doesn't answer, he touches Hirotake's hand, and to his surprise, Hirotake falls to the floor!
It seems that he has been up all night playing video games, and he has ruined their lunchtime date.
However, Narumi is a real character in the face of him.
She decides to buy him a cup of coffee to wake him up.
I guess that's the biggest advantage of being in a relationship with other otaku.

Now, by the office?　Downstairs?　Narumi came to the cafe. Narumi orders a Frappuccino with a long name that almost makes him bite his tongue, thinking to himself, "I wonder if Hirotaka likes sweet things. I don't know, maybe, but I don't think Hirotaka can drink something like that, or maybe it's just my imagination.
And the person who takes his order is a young man with a sparkling personality that cannot be compared to the mob uncle from the previous week!

He really is sparkling!　What a dazzling sight!
And it's CV: Mr. Kaji!

And when the young man, who is a CV: Mr. Kaji-kun, said, "I made you a large serving of cream☆," and topped it with almost overflowing cream and a big smiley face for free, all the girls in front of the TV must have fallen down. All the girls in front of the TV must have fallen down.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, how can you have it all, a good face, a good voice, and good service? I said to myself,

I was wondering if you're ...... Narumi, right?"

I was so upset by this situation that I asked him if he was Narumi, and he replied, "I've been wondering about you.

This upset him, and he said, "Naochan! It was not Narumi who recognized him, nor Hirotake who was asleep and did not see him, but Kabakura and Koyanagi who happened to be there by chance and were watching them.

Narumi was sitting with Naochan (CV: Kaji-kun), who had joined Narumi for a break, and they were talking to each other in a friendly manner.
Meanwhile, the senpai, who were looking on, were getting excited, thinking that they were old boyfriends, and started discussing how to resolve the situation.
But then, they saw a figure beside them.

Isn't ............ Mr. Hirotake?

Oh, why?　Why did you wake up!
I was making a tskkomi with Kabakura-senpai, but it was Koyanagi-senpai who was the cause of it.

You said "for your own good," but you are definitely trying to start a flame war, aren't you?

Hirotaka seemed to sense something in their panic.
Hirotake, who seemed to have sensed something in their flustered state, strode up to "Naochan" and Narumi, who were enjoying themselves at a table in the back of the restaurant.

This is a scene that I never expected to see!

At that moment, my expectations swelled to the max.

Nito!" shouted Kabakura, who was unable to stand it any longer. Two shadows reacted to the voice of Kabakura-senpai who shouted "Nito!
They were Hirotaka and Naochan.

What?
Wait, wait, what do you mean?
I wonder if it is only the author and the senpai who are impatient.

As those of you who have checked the official website may have noticed, the name and identity of "Naochan" are already written in the character introduction!
If you have done your homework, you already know the character's name and identity.

However, for the author and his seniors who had not had enough preparation, Narumi gave us an easy-to-understand explanation.

Let me introduce you to Naoya Nito, Hirotaka's younger brother. Hirotaka's younger brother.
The CV: Mr. Kaji-kun, or rather, Mr. Naoya, was loosely introduced to us.

Really, a younger brother?
They don't look alike. ......

According to the character introduction on the official website, "He is a non-otaku who thinks otaku terms are industry terms or something. Not unlike his older brother, he's refreshingly sociable, expressive, and terrible at video games." So, he really is a younger brother. Hey, what the heck, tell me those things as soon as possible. I was as nervous as Kabakura-senpai.

Narumi, his younger brother, and the senpai were so excited that they went to Nito's house after school.

In part B, the annual game tournament was held.

The game was so cute that Naoya-kun's body moved along with the controller, and he was so bad at the game that his character was introduced as a "bad" player. The story unfolds.

It seemed as if everything would end without incident, but then again, there was a sudden turn of events!
Hirotake has fallen asleep again after an all-night game the night before.
When his younger brother suggested taking Narumi home, Kabakura kicked him out.
The younger brother persisted, but Kabakura refused, as if to say, "But I refuse! He looks like a frightened puppy.

In the midst of such a harsh tone of voice from Kabakura, who has always had a single-lidded face and a scary face, the people around him would have been completely cut up if they had heard such harsh words!

The younger brother was surprised to hear that Narumi and Kabakura were dating.
It was getting complicated, but Koyanagi-senpai, who was getting a little too much trouble here, showed his manliness by kissing Kabakura-senpai in front of them, saying, "This one is over here! (Hana-chan, were you drunk?).

(Was Hana-chan inebriated?) Narumi quickly took note of this development and said, "I can use this! Narumi quickly wrote it down and for some reason, his younger brother started to cry.

At the same moment when the viewers were unusually impressed by Kabakura's anxiety, the younger brother started to talk about the reason why he started to cry.

The reason for his tears was that he was happy to hear that his brother had a girlfriend!

I was tempted to agree with Kabakura-senpai, but I also felt that I could not be too careful with Kaji-kun's voice, and the story continues in the next installment.

The next day, at the office, he was told to teach his younger brother how to play the game, but he refused, saying "I don't want to do it because it's a waste of time. Hirotake shows his relentless refusal.

In this week's C part, Hirotake performs a magic trick on his younger brother, who doesn't know what it is. This week's C-part was a shorty part that some people would not be able to get enough of, with Hirotake performing magic on his younger brother and his younger brother begging him to show him again.

This week, we tried again to create your own "famous scene" using your favorite photos and text on the "Famous Scenes Reflection Maker" on the official website!

Kabakura-senpai who seems to have witnessed something

Narumi, who seems to have witnessed something strange.

Kabakura who seems to know the reason for it and asks Koyanagi to provide him with the evidence.

This is a story created using the "Great Scene Reflection Maker" and has nothing to do with the main story.
