The last series that gave me this much butterflies is Semantic Error. From casting, storyline, and most especially the script, Our Dating Sim was on point. Before anything else, this is a short series (15-minute per EP, total of 8) so manage your expectations.

First 7 minutes into the series and I already know that the entire series will be top notch since they were not kidding with the script you can already sense there is a legitimate direction. Despite the series being very short (15 minutes per EP), that didn't stop them from showcasing the complex emotions of the characters and their individual story. Acting was commendable as well – the chemistry of the leads was very natural. Points to improve: (1) Scoring was fine although there are moments that are very bright so I think livelier OST would even further the series; (2) there were times when camera movements and audio were off although this could be because of budget limitation which is completely understandable. Overall, definitely a must-watch; it has high rewatch value I have in fact rewatched this 5x now and the finale was literally just a week ago haha.

I just wished the series was longer. The 15-minute runtime limit forced them to cut many parts, although one could argue that the 15-minute duration was okay since that forced the series to not have any off scenes.

Side note: actors behind it were so fun and they really love this project.
