I think it's time to put to rest an old enemy. Time to finally review Comic Party

Kazuki Sendo is invited by his friend Taishi Kuhonbutsu to Comic Party, a major event celebrating Dojinshi, impressed by what he sees and being a decent artist himself, Kazuki starts taking up Dojinshi as a hobby with Taishi along with other varied female Otaku, however his childhood friend Mizuki hates Otaku and doesn't want to see her friend get drawn into their world.
One thing I've come to understand while viewing anime on Otaku culture is how much Japan seems to be embarrassed by it; shows like Welcome to the NHK, Watamote and Video Girl Ai do little to make the Otaku individual feel better about themselves which is sad because an Otaku needs as much support as possible for them not to feel outcast by society. Densha Otoko, Otaku no Video, Cosplay Complex (Within Reason), Aoi House and Genshiken are probably the shows that do the best at supporting the average Otaku whereas this series would've joined them had they not made a character like Mizuki which is pretty much the anime sticking a middle finger up at me for liking anime. In short it's like the anime is bullying me and it actually prevents me from liking the regular content which isn't that bad if a little bit in your face. It's a shame it has to be this way especially when the show itself minus Mizuki is actually pretty good but it's because Mizuki is not only a main character but a plot device as well, you cannot ignore her and for that the show is ruined.
If you don't like your taste in anime to be insulted by this show then I suggest not watching the dub as it lessens the pain rather than having someone in your language tell it to your face.
Final Verdict: Personally I hate this show, for everyone else I suggest you test your tolerance with Mizuki to decide whether or not this show is good, if you can tolerate her then you'll enjoy it, if you can't then this will be a series difficult not to get angry at.
