LatestThis is the anime adaptation of Kantoku Fuyuki Todoki (Insufficient Direction), the first essay manga by the "queen of the manga world," Moyoco Anno. The comedic and heartwarming autobiographical story follows her everyday married "otaku lifestyle" with Hideaki Anno, "the founder of the otaku cult."
Writing
Anno roasting himself through his wife's eyes is peak comedy.
Acting
Hayashibara and Yamadera are legends having too much fun.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Moyoco Anno literally coined 'otaku' as we know it in manga criticism, and here she married the guy who defined it in anime. This is like if the person who invented 'stan' married Beyoncé's director.
The voice cast are Evangelion alumni—Megumi Hayashibara was Rei and Misato, Koichi Yamadera was Kaji. They're literally voicing their director's marriage. Meta doesn't cover it.
