Renji Kusakabe, a part-time worker at a videogame arcade, notices an English speaking girl, Lily Baker, who refuses to give up at a UFO catcher game until she's down to her last 100 Yen coin. He offers to help, and Lily appreciates it, but there's a misunderstanding of the significance of Valentine's Day. At any rate, perhaps the two can learn something about each other's home country and culture.

(One episode watched):

I have been taking copious notes about new Summer 2025 season anime, but little other than the names of the main characters seemed worth recording as I watched episode one of Game Center. Lily only speaks a little Japanese but her VA was clearly from that country. Renji knows a fair amount of English and wouldn't mind learning some more. But I don't think I seriously laughed at all during episode one and what's more, we don't really get to know the main characters at all (Lily's name isn't even revealed until the last moments of the episode). Cultural exchange might be interesting, but it will require a lot more depth than the silly running around the arcade and such that we get here. This episode seemed to go pretty quickly, but that was probably because there were no sophisticated elements that I needed to take note of and no complex lines of dialogue that would require me to pause the episode. Renji and Lily are nice people but not interesting ones.
