uhmm nerd... but she's cute... she's doing nerdy cute things perhaps?

but wondering how would they do a plot for this, character? my guess is that it will follow a style very same to lucky star (random plots in one episode)

LOL... just saw 2 animator guide sheets in the site provided its funny that they censored the eyes (anti fan illustration measure?) while there are some and i who can photoshop/systemaxsai it clear...

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

Agreed, she looks like something a nerd would fap to instead of a actual nerd.

I can imagine Nerd-chan's personality would be some kind of a loud all-knowing otaku and speaks very fast xDD

Same original character designer as Ink from Moetan. This could be interesting.

Akiba and Nerd doesn't match, or do they? (At first I thought "nerd" in another meaning)

I think anime will be just an advertisement of Akiba. OVA I guess?

her feets are HUGE also why zippers on her sleeves

so it will be anime about blog - looks solid: other characters would be HTML-kun (yandere), CSS-chan (tsundere) and XML-oniisan
in other words: first ecchi anime about coding the website, dealing with database bugs and slow data transfer all done by our loli characters

its just another pure moe ..
instead of this kind of anime they should produce anime with some "real-story" ..

anime is a serious matter you know

the cast is very good

and i read the blog
"If you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you are a comrade of mine"

When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one
For the Union makes us strong
