That would be Densha Otoko. She actually sends him the teacups.
I'm looking for a dorama about an otaku in the fully negative sense of the word - he can't even afford the high-quality stalkery cameras the other otakus use - who falls in love with a fairly respectable woman. I believe at the end of the second episode, he sends her teacups or a sweater or something, and it's played as very sweet and redemptive. There's a parody of an anime involving a Magical Girl with phallic symbols popping up all around her. The opening credits have the "domo arigato, Mr. Roboto" song.
