With one of the longer titles out there this season, Crunchyroll has added Watamote this weekend to their summer cavalcade of simulcasts. The series is set to premiere on Tuesday, July 9th, at 3:0am ET for premium members and a week later for free members. The show has a decent bit of availability to it with it being open to audiences in the USA, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.
Plot concept: Originally based on a manga by Nico Tanigawa, WATAMOTE ~No Matter How I Look at It, It’s You Guys Fault I’m Not Popular!~ centers around an otome-game loving teenage girl, Tomoko Kuroki, who thought that she would somehow become popular once she reached high school. Unfortunately, two months have passed and she has barely spoken to any of her classmates, let alone found a boyfriend! Unfortunately, Tomoko is extremely shy and doesn’t have many standout qualities at all; how will she achieve her goal of becoming popular in high school?
