Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru Episode 1

Ok, this is the first fall series anime that I laughed quite a bit. I guess without the laughter, the amount of serious drama that I am watching will hurt me. However, it is not just because of the need for balance that I watched this. This is yet another series where there is a trap-san. So technically, that makes three series that I watched that have trap-san. In Bokura ga ita, Takeuchi’s “sister” is a trap. In Happiness!, Jun, our lovely and hot okata is a trap too that is so cute as well. You go, Jun.

And now we have the main character that needs to cross dress in order to fulfil his grandfather’s will for him to join into the all girls school. Wonderful. He looked hot, maybe even cuter than Jun. No, no, it’s impossible for anyone to look cuter than Jun. Never!!!

Anyway, this seems like a possible keepers’ for me at least for a while, since I need a comedy of sorts to balance Asatte no Houkou, Bokura ga ita, Kanon and Red Garden that has no humor whatsoever. So yea. Read on for more information as usual.

Character

Mizuho: The pretty boy that cross-dresses as a gal in order to fulfil the will of his grandfather. He looks to be cute, especially with all the make up. He is also trying to manage the whole issue of being a gal right now and learning how to be one with pretty amusing situations to say the very least.

Mariya: Ok, is it just me but I feel Asa’s vibes here. She does the same cute stuff and is also rather violent in her ways. It is clear that she likes Mizuho quite a bit (Childhood friend, OMG CURSE!) but I wondered if she will be lucky like Asa. Well, no way, but she seems to be a very hyper girl that knows Mizuho’s real identity.

Kana: She is so cute! I really like her because she is so ditsy and shy. I mean, look at her lazy voice trying to swoon at Mizuho because Mizuho is so cute. Wahahaha! She reminds me of Rika from Higurashi, even though I am not sure whether this lazy-voiced VA is the same. If she goes miipa~, i am sure it’s her. Anyway, she is the junior of Mizuho and will take care of Mizuho. She is very excited to take care of someone, as she feels that she is generally useless. Low self esteem: moe~

Yukari: Very excited and EXTREMELY HYPER girl. She is the junior of Mariya.

No idea her name, but it’s clear she’s the main female lead. Nuff said.

Episode summary

Note: The cancellations are to show how confused I am. I actually assumed Mizuho to be a female in my head that i kept typing her/she. Sigh, so I am correcting it obviously to remind myself that he is a he.

Ok, Mizuho was asked by his grandfather to join the all girls school as a last wish in his will. Due to that, Mariya, his childhood friend, dressed him up to become an extremely beautiful lady. That was when he met with the school’s principal, who talked about the wish of his grandfather. The school teacher also knew about Mizuho’s identity and while walking to the class, tried to boost his confidence. As Mizuho felt better, she gave him a candy as a reward.

In class, she he was worried with the watchful gaze of his classmates that her his cover would be blown. However, everyone seemed to find her very pretty and all that. As she interacted with her friends, she suddenly need to go to the toilet. After failing to convince herself himself to go in, he decided to wait until he got back to the dorm. On the way back, he met with the main female lead with dark hair which said gokigenyou (a very formal hello).

Mizuho rushed over to the hostel, dropping all her his things to rush to the toilet. As he reappeared, Mariya scolded him, saying that he had much more to learn to be a lady. Then, Yukari returned and was very excited that Mizuho came as she had heard that Mizuho was very pretty. Makari directed Mizuho to his room and it was then Mizuho met up with his junior that would be taking care of him. Kana seemed to be of low esteem and guided Mizuho to her cute room.

Then, Makari came over to see how Mizuho was in her room. Mizuho saw Makari’s cleavage as she started to bend over and started to blush. Makari then undressed, having a pjyama inside her clothing, as they had a pjyama party for Mizuho. As Kana and Yukari felt all over Mizuho, Makari knew that the only way to make Mizuho comfortable was to make him suffer now.

Thoughts

1. I LOL-ed at the chibi scenes.

2. I laughed at the antics of Mizuho

3. All the girls in Otome is cute.

Conclusion, i will watch it, though it will go down the path of ZnT in my previous writing, probably writing parodies of it…

weeeeeeee~

    Yukari reminds me of Akane in Kimi ga Nozomu Eien with that headband.

    And no Kana is not voiced by the same VA as Rika, though it wouldn’t hurt to hear her go ‘Mii~pah~’. :D
