Koharu Biyori

Whenever I watch a series like Koharu Biyori, I always find myself a little bit disturbed by the repeated themes of robot girls and maids. I wonder is this what Japanese or men in general really want from their women? A servant with ridiculous body measurements who will call them master? Despite this initial reaction and a fairly uninspired opening episode, this series turned out to be a lot better than I was expecting.

There isn’t a really overall plot to Koharu as its three episodes basically break down to a series of shorts within each episode. Takaya is your standard anime otaku who in this near future world goes to a shop called Maid Works where one can find various types of slave robots. He ends up settling for a maid robot he names Yui. Yui just wants to be a normal maid but Takaya wants to constantly dress her up in various outfits he has made. From here we get introduced to the rest of our harem, consisting of some real girls and loli's and other maid robots. Most of the first half of the OVA is dominated by the constant exposure of massive breasts and other echiiness. Some genuine comedy is present and I couldn’t help myself from laughing from most of it.

Yui and Takaya are fairly interesting despite their lack of any real substance. Despite both being extremely stereotypical of the otaku guy and super moe maid. Like the mains the supporting characters lack depth but were still fun. The show probably would have been better off without a few of them as the cast got a little large towards the end for a series of this length.

The characters are all very cute as would be expected. The breast sizes are a bit silly as was the played lets dress a huge boobed girl in skimpy clothes and hang a cowbell around her neck. Yes we get it, her boobs are big.. milk. Seriously is that all you guys think about? Acting is pretty solid however the show suffers from one the absolutely worst opening songs I have heard. Off key much?

If you are a lover of echii humor and boobs then this is a series you should check out. Those who don’t like these themes will probably want to stay away. I thought it was kind of cute and funny despite all the silliness and clichés.
