Hey, here's a fun game! In thirty seconds, try and see how many common Ero-game character archetypes you can think of then, see how many of them you can find in Ladies versus Butlers. I did the same thing and found all of them before I was even halfway through episode 1. You name it, they've got it! From tsundere, to clumsy chicks, to childhood friend/tormentor. They even have an OBVIOUS reverse trap who's roommates with our main hero and what harem would be complete without a 19 year old girl who looks like she's 10!
However, I digress. The truth is Ladies vs. Butlers
...
is a harem that tries to mash as many cliches(God, I hate that word) of the harem genre into one place, hoping it won't just collapse on itself. And while the whole "Oh crap! I tripped and grabbed your titties" can be good for a laugh once and a while, devoting an entire episode to it may be crossing the line. Especially when we get to the level of "Clumsy maid girl falls onto to guy and rubs her cooch on his face".
In terms of story, it's the usual deal. Guy transfers to a "special" school for butlers, maids, and up and coming "ojou-samas", that has an insanely unbalanced ratio of boys to girls because, how are you gonna have a decent harem, when there aren't 20 girls to every guy. The music is nothing special and, as I said before, the characters are very ordinary. Things may get better over time but, as things look now, that is very unlikely.
