Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku 

Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku 

Manga about childhood otaku who work together and decide to try dating each other.

The artwork is good and the comedy is pretty funny. Apparently it started as web manga, which explains the single page story structure. The only thing is that I like the secondary otaku couple much more than the main couple. An anime adaptation is coming out soon and I’m looking forward to checking it out.
