For me, I thought it was gonna be just a show bout video games(which I don't play as much so it doesn't interest me) but I decided to give it a shot. I ended up loving the show not cuz of the games(which I think was sort of a red string of fate) but the adorable romance. I even liked its animation style too. I guess I got used to it. Especially that one scene which sold the show for me:
The airport scene when Ono was bout to leave.
