Hai Sukoa Garu Online

I'd say that's the best anime I've seen and in the list of them I'm comparing this , also stands "Deathnote". Hi-score Girl is a series that every generation after the Y one (80's +) can relate to and bring back sweet childhood memories. It's really well written and masterfully directed. Won't dissapoint any modern or even "retired" arcade gamer. Looking forward for the even more romantic sequel , considering from the last episode. Won't say more . Give it a try now !

Loved this anime! It was funny, it was cute and it brought me back to past! I got hyped as they started playing street fighter 2 in the start of the anime and haven't stopped watching since. The pace is really nice and there is a good mixture of humourous moments and real human feelings. It's a short series so it's easy even if this is not your genre. I really recommend this anime!

One of the best anime in 2018. If you liked to play arcade games back in 90's, you will love this anime too. Anime has great character development and warm story Watch it, you won't regret it...

This is the first anime that made me itch to know the ending of the story, so much that I couldn't contain myself and started reading the mangas and even going through raw non translated chapters to complete the story with Google Translate.

I never expected to get so hooked into a rom-com retro gaming story. I'm born in 1990 so I missed the arcade boom by a few years. Nevertheless, it still brought me joy and as a gamer who played later releases of Capcom and Sony.

I don't want to spoil the story but I finished the 12 eps on Netflix on one go, I just couldn't stop. The episodes are short and I know the CG put a lot of people down, but please, please, watch it until the end because it is so short anyway !

This is truly underrated and I don't say this lightly.

Highly recommend watching this. It's on Netflix! Give it a try

The boy is almost as same age as me. although i dont have the same experience(especially the girl exp), but I have some much resonance of the episode. love it

Thoroughly enjoying this series so far, and I'm a little more than half-way through. It reminds me slightly of Welcome to the NHK (which was also briefly on Netflix, and then suddenly not). It's a coming of age story about a slacker who is too focused on video games to realize and/or care about the feelings of those around him. There are some pretty good characters in the show, my favorite being the kid's mom. The show falls short of being 'exceptional' for me, though. The main female character (the title character... the "High Score Girl") is largely frustrating, rather than being mysterious. She has a tendency for bizarre violence that ranges from a cute "I don't know how to really express my feelings" foot stomp to full-on inexplicable "I'm going to murder you". Her complete silence thus far has just been stupid, to the point where I don't understand how the protagonist can say "she get's along well with everyone".... what!?! Inside, I literally beg Haruo to realize that the blonde girl is a far better choice... we'll see what happens towards the end of the show with that story arc... finger's crossed. The other issue is that Haruo is nearly exclusively fixated on fighting games, which when I was his age, (also in the early 90's) I exclusively hated and considered "low brow".... that's, of course, a personal thing.

Nevertheless, the fact that I find myself hoping Haruo gets with girl B instead of girl A is reason enough for me to find the show above average. It's full of *mostly* relatable characters that you wind up rooting for, and there's enough humor to fill in the in-between parts.

I just found this anime to be fantastic. Not only reminding me of when arcade where the centre of attraction but also of hopeless romantic high schoolers and all the awkwardness that brings. Beautifully Portrayed with some surprisingly moving scenes. A must watch for all 80s & 90s. Season 2 please.

I watched the first 5 episodes..so loving and heartwarming and fun...but what happens after ep 5? Did i start watching another show by mistake...even IMDB is confused what happens after 5. It even got the name wrong (High Score Girl)

Also...what was with the girl feeling the guy's penis? that was way out of focus for the show..way way way off

Just watch it right away, instead of scrolling through more comments.. it's an epic, romantic, cybergeek anime..

I stopped watching at Round 7. The main driver for me to continue watching is nostalgia. However, it could not overcome many issues I have with this series.

This story is about a gamer and his romance with his classmates. I was hoping for the gamer to grow into someone like a hero that has redeeming qualities. However, the gamer continued to be clueless, and the girls continue to fall in love with him.

Nostalgia is strong with this one, but unfortunately it doesn't have enough legs to carry me through the many problems with the main characters.
