Yuuta Segawa, a college student, is making the most of college life - he has his own apartment, a large collection of porn, and he's somehow found himself in some sort of relationship with Raiko Oda, possible the strangest girl on campus. But she's cute and has a huge chest, so that's okay. His carefree life, though, is about to be turned upside down by his sister, who's leaving for an extended overseas trip with her husband - and leaving thier three young daughters in his care while they're gone...
Really was clued in on what to expect from this one, as it was a surprise addition to the schedule - Crunchyroll only announced at about an hour before the first episode streamed. It seems to be one-half dodgy domestic comedy (Sora clearly has a "thing" for her older uncle, and hey! Isn't it convenient that they're not blood-related!! ::headdesk::), and one-half college life comedy. I'm not too sure yet that those two can coexist comfortably. The general setup is a bit weak, as well - if my sister suddenly up and left the country in the way that happened here, leaving me with three kids to look after, I bloody well fly them out behind her and be done with it. On the other hand, Raika weirdness is fun, and I see myself quite getting into her antics.
THE GOOD: Raika, who promises to be a barrel of laughs. And if you're looking for a cuteness overdose, Hina will happily provide.
THE BAD: Seen it all before - albeit not in one show, perhaps - and having most of the fanservice coming from the 14 & 10 year olds seems a bit off when there are perfectly good adult characters around.
Meh. I'll give it a few more episodes to see where the focus settles down - given the title it's obvious that the three girls will get most of the focus, but if the college side of things is played well that could make the series worthwhile. We'll see.
