3* In general terms, given the general prejudice Japanese culture has toward otaku, the attitude towards otaku in the series is noteworthy. Throughout the manga, the only significant character with any real prejudice toward otaku is Akina herself. Akina's teammates during the sports day find her odd, but still awkwardly try to strike up a conversation with her and be friendly. Akina's middle school friends genuinely like Makoto and encourage Akina to enjoy her new friends and share interests with them.
4** One of the instance of prejudice toward the otakuism is when a couple of gyaru dismissed a [[BlandNameProduct Prepure]] ''kigurumin'' stage show as "childish" while there are several childless adult watching the show. And then the ''kigurumin'' actors start doing acrobatic stunts in their action acts (note that ''kigurumin'' actors use full body costumes including unwieldy large head masks) while making inspiring speeches typical of magical girl shows. A combination of awesome and heartwarming moment within the show silenced any naysayer, including Akina herself. And those who are fans to things people dismissed as childish will understand this feeling.
