I can't write reviews, this text will just include my random thoughts about this show. Also, I've started watching it back when it first aired, stopped and finished just yesterday so my view on this title may be a bit off.

#Obvious Problems
Net-juu no Susume is a show about a NEET woman who literally quit her job just to play MMO games. Fair enough, we've seen this in anime already. But there's one issue. Where does she take money from? Maybe it was explained and I missed it but to me, it seems like she shouldn't have internet access, water, food, ANYTHING. And that's partly where my review's summary is coming from - she's more like a teenager whose parents are sending them money to live and study but they quit the school because who cares about a job or education when you can play games while you get money for doing nothing.
But there's another smaller issue which, to be fair, triggered me even more which is at times the characters were even more annoying than your teen drama romcom cast. How is it possible? I have no idea but they're supposed to be reasonable, mature adults and somehow they're more childish and dense than freakin' middle-schoolers.
I honestly wouldn't have any problems if Moriko and Yuuta were, say, 10 years older. But honestly, can you imagine 30-year-old acting like that? Well, I can't.

#But this anime has to do something right, right?
Yes, yes it does. Actually, if you turn a blind eye to my nitpicking it's pretty decent show. Soundtrack was pretty nice, character design was appealing and animation was good. Besides characters' unexplained behavior they actually progress - that's something I wasn't expecting from a show which served me otaku romcom with 15-year-old in two times older body. Their relationships feel pretty natural and development is believable - again, something I'm never expecting from a romcom.
But that's about it - strong basis, but nothing more.

#So then, why such low score?
If the plot was only as predictable as it was I wouldn't complain but oh man those coincidences are seriously something else. They are playing presumably large (or at least somewhat big) MMO game and not only they live in the same city but they all also live near eachother?! That's seriously some r/nevertellmetheodds material. Not only that but also Yuuta turns out to be the same person Moriko was playing with years ago. NOT ONLY THAT but Yuuta also hires at the same place Moriko dropped out from. And the list of coincidences goes on. I apologize but if the plot can't think of any reason for any action, I can't score this show any higher, despite how cute, enjoyable or whatever it was.

#But hey, both OP and ED rule
