Well at least one character is relatable. If I was stuck in this show I'd have my eyes closed all the time too.


Blandy McBlanderson has just started university, where he is starting to meet all kinds of oddballs. An odd girl named Raika in particular has, for no real reason, taken an interest in him. He thought he’d be living a usual university life in a dorm, but his older sister has a request for him – her and her husband are going away and want him to mind her three daughters. Technically only one is hers, the youngest – while the other two are her husband’s from previous marriages. Of course, the eldest of the daughters has a thing for older guys and a crush on Blandy, so WACKY HIJINKS WILL ENSUE RIGHT PS BUY THE FIGURES

She's three, and I am incredibly sad that I know this isn't going to stop the people this show is aimed at.

I was tempted to just leave the review section of this as ‘nope’ and post it like that, but then I thought ripping into this nicely animated pile of fecal matter would be more fun. Because after sitting through that, I really want to have fun. With that sentence, I’ve already got the main good thing about this show out of the way. It is surprisingly well animated, and I was a little impressed by the backgrounds. But that’s it, really, and even then the aesthetics aren’t 100% good. Even though things are drawn fine, the characters look deformed when shown in side-on, and the character designs are as forgettable as every other show like this. And yet it’s still probably going to get a bunch of figures and body pillows because it has That Show written all over it.
Possibly worst of all is how it started off not all that bad, showing Blandy’s university life first. I say ‘not all that bad’ to refer to comparison because it was still about as exciting as watching the wall of my apartment, unless you really like looking at big tits because that’s what the camera is focussed on most of the time, but things took a nose dive into the stagnant depths of shit lake by the time Blandy got to meet his niece and step-nieces. The rest is exactly as I expected it would be, and why I put off watching this for so long, and why I’m not sure I even got my hopes up that this wouldn’t be thinly veiled lolicon harem bullshit extended character goods commercials that will explode all over the next Comiket and inspire another line of creepy parody onaholes. Sure, people are going to say that it isn’t, really, and that it’s a wholesome show about a young guy playing the part of a father to three girls which is a pretty hard argument to make when the second youngest daughter is pressing her barely budded breasts against the guys arm and showing off her lovingly detailed ass and underwear. I can’t remember the last time I felt so unclean watching an anime before. To put this in perspective for you – I liked Kodomo no Jikan. By the time Blandy had walked in on the eldest daughter changing – something I can’t believe we’re still resorting to putting in anime in 2012, I was consumed with such incredible, indescribable hatred for everything that had that not been the end of the episode, I would have quit there.
After this experience, a sense of sadness washed over me as I looked out the window at the moon and  realized what I had become; the angry, bitter anime blogger. I never wanted to be this bitter and jaded about anime, but this is the terrible fate of a reviewer. This is what these kind of shows have done to me. And I still keep watching them. You’re welcome.

Did they even try with Blandy's character design. Seriously.
