Categorization

Hybrid, mostly static harem bishoujo.

Subject

Modern Tokyo. A sweet-at-heart dork becomes manager of an all-girls dormitory. Much misconception, romance and ultraviolence ensue.

Commentary

Enjoyable, but there’s no escaping the dweeb factor. Some claim it to be a parody of the genre or even a shoujo series. It’s not. Based on a long manga in which they eventually marry. The original series has spawned several follow-up episodes in the form of “Specials”.
