| Hifumi loves sake but she can't even order on her own, lol. |
| A city's greatness is determined by the speed of its internet connection. |
| I'm watching this in the early morning before I head off to work. Sigh, if only I worked at an office that was full of cute girls. This show has a lot of real laughs. I like how Rin scolded Ko at the beginning about being a bad influence, but at Aoba's welcome party Rin is the bad influence. The hedgehog scenes were a riot, especially when Hifumi comes home to show her smile to Sojiro and he turns his spiny back on her. Ha ha ha. |
| this episode... too cute for me to handle can't wait for next week :)) |
 |
| Hifumi is such a good girl. I thought certain stuff would happen at the drinking party heh. |
 |
| I heard k-on ost at the background. Who knew it has the same composer as k-on |

 |
| Ah yes the pouring of alcohol to seniors and filling the soup bowls as the youngest/lowest ranking member of the group in the company. Corporate Slavery at its finest indeed. Hits me straight in the feels. |
| This anime heals my heart so well... Hifumi and Aoba are just too cute for me to handle ^-^ |
 |
| This is such a good anime. It really doesn't have much of a plot...which is totally fine. The characterization is enough to carry this show on its own. I love the interaction of all the characters. Bring on the next episode!!! |
 |
on | Nyaa~Kawaiiiiiii Hifumi-chan is soooo Kawaii!! Soujirou-kun too!!! I loved New Game!!!  |
| I really enjoyed this episode, I have big hopes for this anime. |
| I'd feel the 'Slice of Life' in this episode........^-^ It's very nice I'll hope it getting more 'Comedy' next week ...... |
 |
| Drink more girls! drink more! just like us guys more beer! 4/5. |
 |
| This series is definitely something I'm glad I picked up since I was originally going to skip it. Love the whole moe anime girls but working at a video game company premise, because I get both cute girls and references to game development. Also it seems Aoba is being both shipped with the shy girl and the blonde haired girl? Which ship do I support? |

| Cute girls everywhere~ |
fourberie said: hifumi is literally sex ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ YES. Hifumi confirmed best girl. She takes her drinks STRAIGHT. |
| Really cute episode :) They're adapting the manga pretty well. |
| Aoba is 18 year old, PS3 was released in 2006, she could be 8 years old by time game was released https://i.imgur.com/feyUkOb.jpg |
MrInsux said: You can check it on their official website http://newgame-anime.com/onair/Aversa said: This episode was over way to fast, an episode should not be 24 minutes it should be 24/7. Aoba going along drinking was funny to watch. And seeing Hifumi smile was nice as well. Can't wait till next week. Do you know which day the episode will be released? I am dying to know. The next episode should be on monday the 18th |
| Like I said, PS3 is not childhood. It's beautiful graphic-wise, unfortunately at the cost of story and gameplay ╮(╯︵╰)╭ I'm feeling really sorry if your childhood was shaped by PS3/XB360 generation games. Pretty boring so far, I almost felt asleep through the 1st half. 2nd half with welcome party was decent though. Typical "insert age and everyone is over 20 and mature enough to drink alcohol." Thinking about dropping this show as of now. Gonna give it one or two more episodes. |

| Yet another decent episode. I'm happy with how this anime's progressing. 3.5/5 |

| DANG THIS ANIME IS FREAKING CUTE. Especially Hifumi, she is so freaking amazing. The drinking party started off so nice, and got pretty intense towards the end. Gotta keep that information a secret. Character interactions are just lovely in this, and the animation and style are adorable. |
A Wild and Small Otaku has Appeared! |
| With such a workplace environment....your shift will be over before you know it. Hifumi is so cute when you panic haha |
 |
| Hifumi's smile is adorable. I love the mood of this anime, moe with a job make such a great mix. |

 |
| Sojiro rejecting Hifumi's smile 0/5 Hifumi is slowly turning into my favorite so far in this series |
 |
| Not bad at all. I love the dynamic they show in the office. It's fun to see. Makes me wish the people in my own office was so friendly.... |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| You can't deceive me, Doga Kobo. I know that New Game didn't have this much FANSERVICE in. And wow, you're doing a lot of this... (What's the point tho...) It's also lost a lot of its 'quickness', which helped deliver the manga's gags and flow of the conversations. And jeez, they're really trying to push this Director character in. Like, every chance they take, she just happens to be there :/ Not disappointed, but slightly let down this week. |

| Aha, quite a drinking party indeed. Hifumi offering Aoba a bribe was rather hilarious as well. |
| it's moe fluff but I actually like this too much to drop it. part of me just feels like re-watching shirobako, though. |
 |
| This is basically cute girls doing cute things with plot and game industry theme. I like it very much, though I don't really expect it to be as serious Shirobako, but It'll very enjoyable if there is more of the industry in it. |
 |
| A decent episode, nothing more to say. 3/5 |
| I think this episode revealed a lot about this series and its goals. We got a little bit about game development as we see a passable scene of Aoba learning how to make an NPC in some town in their game. But this series is clearly much less interested in game development, and more interested in moe girl workplace hijinks. I'd be ok with that, if it was a little less cliche about it. This episode is capable of some humorous moments, aided by recognizable and well acted characters. But maybe I'm being too harsh, it just hasn't really added up to much for me. There are some series that could have kept me thoroughly entertained with drunken banter at a restaurant. But I very quickly was just kind of waiting for this episode to end. It just didn't entertain me as much as I wanted it to. And not much else was going on besides seeing how these barely interesting moe ciphers act around alcohol. Also Aoba continually bringing up how she was under-aged was kind of annoying. I didn't start to really mind it until the phone conversation with her friend at the end. But I really just wanted them to stop talking about it. I enjoy watching this show. It may not seem like it, but it's very watchable. I don't love it's art style but it's not repugnant. It's really engaging to watch, it's coherent and is clearly made with a lot of care and energy. But I wish it was a little better than it is. I think it's capable of more, and I hope I don't still feel that way by the end. |
 |
| Lmao Aoba is just way too lovable, loving it so far. >~< |
| Hifumi was amazing LOL |
 |
| Hifumi is the cutest. |
 |
| Nice to finally know their hierarchy structure, at least we can tell who's doing what now. And I love Hifumi, she's like the best girl of this show :) |
| I dunno, I found this episode to be a waste of time. I feel so unsatisfied with this right now.;; I'm already watching episode three though and it's a lot better to me. A lot better. |
| Hifumi needs to smile more, if Sojiro doesn't like it, doesn't mean I don't. |
 |
| somehow the game they're working on reminds me of Odin Sphere a bit haha |
