Sorry, but WTH is up with that synopsis!?

Quote:
a boy who began working part-time to earn enough money to buy an anime Blu-Ray box

False. The "who began working" is really misleading as Tomoya is known to have been working multiple part-time jobs to support his otaku goods consumption.

Quote:
meets a beautiful girl on his way home one night

False. The meeting happened after Tomoya finished his morning newspaper delivery job.

Quote:
As the producer of a dojin software brand

False. It was that exact meeting that turned Tomoya from one of the otaku consumer to one who created a doujin circle in the first place. Hell, it wasn't until the end of the 3rd volume that they finally came up with the circle's name.

Quote:
As the producer of a dojin software brand, he models the heroine of his newest game after her.

Absolutely not! The meeting was so decidedly not-moe for the otaku Aki Tomoya that spoiler[practically the majority of it was erased from his mind]; only the desire to redo it in a more moe way remained and that was what make him wanted to remake said event in a doujin galgames. Asking Katou Megumi to serve as the model for the main heroine is something happened after again, an un-moe-able reunion.

The majority of LN1 is about how the otaku Aki Tomoya came to term with the fact that he was not falling for the twin-tail tsundere childhood friend of half British nationality, or that 3rd year senpai who can be rather vicious with her words, but with a rather normal girl that can't really be describe with any usual otaku term other than lack of presence.


Quote:
so he asks ace of the art club Eriri Spencer Sawamura to provide the art, as well as the honor student Utaha Kasumigaoka to write the scenario.

Man... the way this synopsis was written, you'd think that SaeKano is another random paint by the number harem series where the aim is to make the harem grow ever-larger not the reverse.

They're not actually abbreviating it like that, are they?

They did use "冴えカノ" as the abbreviation and its twitter hashtag(?) is indeed #saekano, so...
