Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku (with Ellie from Religiously Nerdy)

Shojo & Tell: A Manga Podcast

This episode discusses all volumes of Wotakoi by Fujita.

Gather 'round, gamers, and let you freak flag fly, fujoshi: Wotakoi is the lighthearted, reassuring read all otaku need. It follows six young adults as they navigate fandom and romance, to hilarious, heartwarming effect. Ellie from the Religiously Nerdy podcast joins to discuss our three main couples, answer a slew of listener questions, and generally identify aspects that make the series so relatable. (Ashley, unfortunately, relates a bit too much to Kabakura.)
