Reception
The series received poor critical response. CBR lists it  among the worst Slice of Life  animation shows, describing it as follows: "another rather stereotypical one, featuring again a cast of female characters. In Akiba-chan viewers are introduced to the titular Akiba-chan and her four fellow TV and game fans, all living in the Maison de Akiba apartments. What makes this show stand out is the fact that the whole thing is acted out entirely with dolls and CG effects. The individual episodes have self-contained stories that are cute but shallow, with minimal character development and stiff animation to round out this not-so-satisfying treat." Sources
