Aki Tomoya runs a small doujin circle with the people he can least afford to have in his life: the literary novelist Utaha, the prodigy illustrator Eriri, and the producer Michiru, all of whom are tolerating each other only because Aki is convinced they can make a visual novel together. The girl whose perspective he keeps trying to write — the unremarkable, ordinary-looking heroine he meets on a hillside on the first day of spring — is his classmate Megumi Kato, and Saekano is the running comedy of Aki noticing that the heroine he is designing in fiction is already, somehow, the only stable person in his life.

A Harem Comedy with a Subtle Romance hidden within it
Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata is to me, a breathe of fresh air in anime.
Ecci fan service be full of authentic moments and extreme self-awareness as well

Saekano is a surprisingly clever story about forming a genuine connection, disguised as a meta ecchi harem romcom.
