About Romantic Killer

Here is what Romantic Killer (ロマンティック・キラー) is about, retold in plain terms: a comedy and romance anime by domerica (2022). The setup: Anzu Hoshino is a "non-heroine type" high school girl who pays no attention to fashion or romance and spends every day playing video games. When the wizard Riri all at once appears, Anzu is compelled to participate in the Magical Realm's project to stop population decline.

As things develop, this romantic comedy depicts what happens when Anzu goes from living a life immersed in her three favorite things — video games, chocolate, and cats — to being surrounded by handsome guys. Anzu is steadfast in her claim that she never wanted to live in a dating simulation game. She runs into a handsome guy who is so popular it hurts, a clean-cut and athletic childhood ally, and a beautiful rich young guy who is naive about the outside realm.

As a comedy title, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Voice work is led by Rie Takahashi as Anzu Hoshino and Mikako Komatsu as Riri. This one is best suited to viewers who want something light between heavier series. With 12 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
