Description
The socially anxious Ruan Cunyun only dared to let go of himself in the 2D world. There are three things he loves the most in his life: 1. Holing up at home playing games 2. Cosplay 3. Collecting the entire sets of Teacher Balls’s doujinshi art books. ——This character of an acute Otaku, if known by colleagues, would result in social death! On his first day at work, a colleague asked about his interests and hobbies, and Ruan Cunyun came forward with the practiced fake answers and fake smiles: “Sports, travelling, music.” After he finished speaking, he saw a man in a crisp suit walking into view, exuding a strong professional aura. The colleagues respectfully said, “Hello, Mr. Qin.” Ruan Cunyun broke out in a cold sweat: Shit, I seem to have seen him at the comic exhibition four years ago. Am I going to be exposed on the first day? – Qin Fanglu, the co-founder of a black horse company, had started from scratch and climbed up through challenging experiences. His paperman obsession was buried deep underneath his mature and elite appearance. No employee knows that the meticulous young entrepreneur was actually an Otaku for ten years with hundreds of thousands of fans online, and was addressed as “The Circle’s Great God Teacher Balls.” Qin Fanglu considered himself as an extremely rational papermen-sexual. He has never liked real people and doesn’t know how he should like them. But the newly hired child unexpectedly barged into his life. A baby face, cool touches. A pair of tiger teeth were sometimes exposed when he smiled. The self-cognition of being a papermen-s*xual for more than 20 years collapsed. How should normal young people date? The old acute Otaku took romance courses from scratch, yet why does he fail to understand it no matter how much he studied? – Ruan Cunyun & Qin Fanglu: I am an acute Otaku, I can’t let him find out! ★ Two acute otakus pretending to be normies, sprawled on their backs after the car overturned, wobblily dating. ★ Enlightened acute otaku Gong X Baby-faced frosty-to-the-touch Shou 1V1, sweet, HE The shou could cross-dress There is side CP, but the main text focus on the main CP One sentence summary: 2D Otaku with Social Anxiety Also Wants to Date!

My Thoughts on 2D Otaku with Social Anxiety Also Wants to Date!
First Impressions
Going into "2D Otaku with Social Anxiety Also Wants to Date!", I was immediately intrigued by the premise. An MC grappling with social anxiety while navigating the world of cosplay and BL? Sign me up! The tags promised a blend of comedy, romance, and slice-of-life, and I was eager to see how the author would balance these elements. The completed status of the original run was also a big plus, as I knew I wouldn't be left hanging.
What Works Well
What I appreciated most about this novel was its portrayal of the MC's social anxiety. It felt incredibly realistic and relatable. The author did a fantastic job of capturing the nuances of living with this condition, avoiding the pitfalls of exaggeration or romanticization. The MC's struggles with revealing his true interests, fearing judgment, and navigating social situations resonated deeply.
The relationship between the MC and ML, while slow-burn, was ultimately very rewarding. The ML's obsessive love for the MC, particularly after discovering his identity as the artist "Huya," was incredibly endearing. The fact that the ML had a secret otaku cave in his villa? Pure gold! The later chapters, after they both embrace their true selves, were filled with sweetness and passion, making the initial frustrations worthwhile. The author also deserves kudos for the supporting characters, who added depth and warmth to the story.
