This manga is a collection of anecdotes from the daily lives of the two protagonists, who are avatars of Hideaki Anno and Moyoco Anno, the latter being the author of the manga.

Each chapter tells a story of their everyday life, often focusing on Anno’s Otaku nature and how this gradually influenced his wife as well.

These anecdotes are told in an obviously exaggerated way, but without ever becoming too caricatured or overly sentimental (as Anno himself notes at the end of the volume). Sometimes, the anecdotes are even intimate in their own way, as they reveal some of Anno’s character's bad habits.

There isn't much more to ... say beyond this, except that I really appreciated Hideaki Anno's reflections at the end of the volume, where he contemplates what it means to be an Otaku and his relationship with this culture. However, I’m not sure if I should mention this, as it might be an addition exclusive to my edition.
