Those who are currently living in Japan can start watching this series on platforms such as AT-X, Tokyo MX, and BS11.

On the other hand, those living outside Japan can watch the anime on Crunchyroll, since the platform currently holds the streaming rights for the series. However, as most people know by now, they will have to pay a subscription fee.


Recap of the previous season

Fumiya Tomozaki is a normal Japanese teenager who has one big problem—he doesn't know how to talk to other people. However, he is very good at gaming and manages to reach the very top of the online video game he is currently playing, thus becoming friends with the player who secures second place on the table.

Eventually, they decide they want to meet in person, and Fumiya is in pure shock to find out that the person he is friends with is a beautiful girl called Aoi Hinami. They hit it off and begin to form a connection, with Hinami fully determined to help Fumiya develop his social skills, which is something that becomes a major plot point in the series.

This first episode, all things considered, is very likely to focus on reintroducing the series and the characters to the public because it's been two years since the two OVAs came out.

There is also a very good chance that it will focus on Fumiya's new part-time job as a waiter, especially considering the social interactions he could get from that.
