## Executive Summary & Cultural Positioning

Gamers! is a 2017 television series that explores the social and romantic life of a high school student named Keita Amano. Keita is characterized as a mediocre loner whose primary interest is playing video games. His routine is disrupted when Karen Tendo, the president of the school Gamer Club and the most popular girl in class, initiates a conversation with him.
