Just like the title says, two men are friends in an online game but in real life they are emplyer and employee. They don't know who they are in the real life until something happens that makes them realize who they are and start falling in love.
There are a lot of misunderstandings, but they are funny ones so they don't bothered me at all.
The two main charcters are funny and sweet and the art style is simple but easily understood.
Overall a good romance with lots of comedic parts

This one was so much funnier than I expected it to be and I had such a great time reading it.
A binge-able manga that draws out the well-known miscommunication trope to such ridiculous extremes that it becomes hilarious.
The MC is so painfully oblivious that it's outright funny to the point where you're sitting there giggling. The whole miscommunication trope is so well done and the plays in the language and dialogue to further said miscommunication are genius.
I really liked the ML, he was drawn very beautifully and had a softer but equally loving character. And I also really liked the second male character. I thought his crush was cute even though he's still a high schooler and it got kinda weird sometimes.
Overall this was such an enjoyable read and I'll definitely pick up the sequel because I have a feeling things will get really good.
Fans of and <i>Punch Drunk Love</i> (for the ridiculous but funny miscommunication and <i>Loving Yamada at Lv999!</i> (but make it gay) will find this manga a treat.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for granting me a copy.

This book was beyond adorable! I loved how different each character was, yet they all fit together so well. The absolute and complete obliviousness of the main character was a bit ridiculous, but I can't say it didn't make for a fantastic story. And I absolutely loved the gaming aspect of their relationship!

I started this manga expecting a normal-boring reading but found an amazing title
It's a manga that relies completely on misunderstanding trope, lot's of reader don't like it but in this volume is written chef kiss. Aside from to the classic kind and naive protagonist, the two co-protagonists are well written and charismatic.
I can't wait to read the sequels but I hope this excellent writing doesn't turn into endless and pointless series
only downside spoilers:
I was a little disappointed when the only kiss was censored
🇮🇹
Non gli davo due lire invece è stata una lettura fantastica.
È un manga che si basa completamente sul trope dell'incomprensione, a molte persone non piace ma in questo volume è fatto benissimo. Oltre al classico protagonista gentile e ingenuo i due coprotagonisti sono scritti bene e carismatici.
Non vedo l'ora di leggere i seguiti ma spero che quest'ottima scrittura non si trasformi in un brodo allungato
spoiler dell'unico lato negativo:
Mi è un po' dispiaciuto che l'unico bacio presente sia censurato

A light, cute, and fun read! ✨✨
But I couldn’t give it a 5 star. I think it's too fast (super fast-paced). I mean, this manga doesn't really explain things in detail and only adds a few funny and cute scenes to add connection to the story. So many cliffhangers, at least I hope it moves slower and makes the chemistry between Hishamoto and Shirase softer and clearer. :]
But the others so far have been very good! I like how the use of sentences in the game is really like in the real world, how the idioms, slang and jokes work. Including how excited Hishamoto was in playing the game, it was really funny and cute.
A worth to read!

An equal amount of fun, an intense set of events. I had a good laugh and time with this manga. I enjoyed how it wasn't rushed, and at the same time, it took its time to build the story. Overall, I would reread this again ♡

3 stars.
It’s cute and the art’s great. The pacing is a bit odd and I don’t like the whole teenager in love with an adult thing going on. Wish we got to see more of Shirase and Hashimoto actually being a couple.

It was a fun read! There were some funny misunderstandings among the characters, especially their identities and relationship, but it worked out.
I'll be interested in reading volume two.

This was an easy read that definitely had its moments, but I didn’t quite click with the love triangle. I think the story would have been better if we’d got to see more of the awkwardness of meeting in real life. It also didn’t help that the characters looked a bit too similar—I had a hard time telling them apart at times.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this arc.
I really loved this manga. It was super cute. The characters were fun. I enjoyed their in-game and real life interactions. I loved all the misunderstandings; they added some fun comedy. It was also nice to see how the two MCs work relationship benefited after learning they were in-game friends. I’d love to read more if there is any.

This is the second manga I've read from Nmura and this time the title caught my attention--with it's promise of a terribly awkward situation, I was laughing even before I started reading and it did not dissapoint.
This is book 1 of the manga and it is huge at over 300 pages. I was also surprised to learn that this manga was originally published on twitter.
As appears to be characteristic of Nmura, the art is nice and the story is rather cute and funny, with a bit of romance at the end. The plot ultimately developed as I expected and seemed to wrap up nicely, so I'm not sure what to expect from a book 2 or subsequent volumes.

Sometimes I pick up a manga just because the title interests me and that was the case here. I found this manga available on NetGalley, and as someone who is into gaming, I was intrigued by the title and the misunderstandings I was sure would ensue. This manga is an absolute delight! It is a fun romp, and if you've ever had a job where your boss was intense and you vented about them to friends, you will immediately relate to Hashimoto. Which, as I'm sure you can tell, will lead to hilarious situations. This manga does have some small romance to it which was cute, but I found myself mostly enjoying this for all of the awkward misunderstandings.
Thanks so much to NetGalley and Kodansha for the chance to read this!

I really enjoyed this one! Hashimoto was such a sweetheart and his obliviousness was so funny to see. I liked how the romance between him and Shirose build up from coworkers to friends, and how each of them realized their feelings. The art was cute, especially the one of the game characters. The trio was so silly and the misunderstandings caused by their communications were so funny as well!

I knew when I saw online friend and boss I would like this. It was cute and entertaining till the end. I wish we could’ve seen the two more as a couple but I’m also glad they didn’t since I feel like when mangas do that it gets boring but this one didn’t get it boring at all. I would recommend this to everyone who enjoys cute simple romances.

What a fantastic start to a series! Such a cute and funny story that I can't wait to continue.
Hashimoto makes a friend in an online game who he can vent about his life to, especially ranting about his demon of a boss. But when the two decide to meet up in real life, he's shocked to find out that his friend and his boss are one and the same.
I will absolutely be picking this one up physically!

The art is gorgeous, and the story is incredibly sweet. It's nice to see their relationship progress and to see how the characters changed (and stayed the same!) I absolutely adore the in-game interactions and how different they are verses how the characters speak/act in real life. It does seem to drag a bit as the misunderstandings go on, but they all had a satisfactory conclusion to me! Kudos!

The last Manga I finished was 7 Deadly Sins; while I read comics sometimes, it’s not my primary genre.
This one was Cute and Funny. The premise was interesting, and the misunderstandings, when they happened, didn’t drag on; they were well done and cleared swiftly.
The pace of the relationship was steady. There was no Insta love at all, which I hated.
The drawing was cute, and I especially loved the art depicting the game and their interactions; the dynamic between them was sweet.
I am already a fan of this, and I can’t wait to dive into the next volume when it is released.

This was a super cute & interesting concept for a Manga & I loved the online game element it included. I felt like there could’ve been clearer breaks for when periods of time were ending & a new one was starting as I found it a little bit difficult to keep up however overall I loved the characters & storyline for this one!

This was not my favorite manga I've ever read. I found i just couldn't connect with the characters so I just couldn't make myself care. I felt like the whole manga just kept dragging on and on. I think the problem is i don't play a lot of rpgs so I just couldn't connect with the material. I did think this was a cute story and the art was great it just wasn't for me.

Super super fun read!
I really enjoyed the character trashtalking his boss to his boss (unknowingly ofc) and later on finding out who his online friend was irl.
All characters were well written and lovable, even Hashimoto being so dense that he turned down a confession completely unaware of it.
It was a light read, loaded with humor and a sprinkle of romance, which made a great combo overall.
