I've seen this set up too many times. The office romsnce is just dull and predictable. Also I found the female lead to unlikable and the make too wimpy. I like to see more romsnce stories with a make lead who has guts and isn't afraid to talk back to the girl and put her in her place while still being respectful
I give it 4/10

I mean sure the main girl in my awkward senpai feels like a highschooler or a college girl but on the opposite end i didn't feel like the male MC was immature.

That being said the male MC did feel bland tbh

I feel like I Have a Crush at Work! is the high bar for any office romcom, but I thought this was a solid slow-burn (so slow the leads didn't even really confess or officially go out! Just trial dating like normal people).

Actually I felt the romance aspect was pretty underplayed for the first half of the series, even in the beach episode. Compared to the Ice Guy and his Cool Female Colleague at least.
