“New Game” is a new anime based upon a 4-koma manga series about a recent high
school graduate, Aoba Suzukaze, who gets her first job at a game company. The
game company appears to only employ young women, and Aoba is thrilled to find
out that her first assignment will be to work on the development of the third
continuation of her favourite game from when she was in grade school.

So what we appear to have here is not a series about working life as much as it
is a “cute girl” series. Aoba is all “squeeky” and overwhelmed by her coworkers.
Her coworkers are all “odd” cute girls who alternately blush at then leer at
Aoba. Aoba's introduction to her job involves her being given a chair, a
computer, and a copy of an Autodesk software manual. One senses that an “H”
version would essentially be non-stop rug-munching.

I'm not a fan of Squeeky Girls in cute-girls-doing-stupid-things anime so I
won't be watching more of this. I suppose if Moyoko Anno had written this it
could have been interesting, but as it is there is nothing here for me.

This is just a fluff piece. With all of the girls being so friendly all we
can expect is some light humour and I didn't seeing anything to indicate
that the show would offer something unique for the genre. I'll be passing as
well.
