Narumi Momose is a small, cute young woman with a passion for idols, video games, and all things anime and manga—especially boys' love titles. She is a hidden otaku, specifically a fujoshi. After being dumped because of these hobbies, she leaves her job and starts working at a different company. At her new workplace, the only coworkers aware of her secret are her childhood friend Hirotaka Nifuji, a blunt gaming otaku; Hanako Koyanagi, a cool, mature-looking woman; and Tarou Kabakura, an attractive guy with an intimidating face who constantly bickers with Hanako. During a drink to catch up, Hirotaka suggests Narumi find someone who will accept her interests. She hesitates—otakus are often seen as weird, and the only people who truly get them are other otakus. But could a relationship between two otakus actually work? Following Narumi and Hirotaka as they start dating, Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii is a lighthearted story about people trying to balance work, romance, and their hobbies.
