Kore ga Watashi no Goshujinsama

I can’t believe I didn’t see it coming. The title was He is my Master, and yet I didn’t see the possibilities of fan service at all.

I’m not into fan service (unless it’s fan service for girls, which is rare) and usually too much fan service hinders me from liking an anime, but for some reason, this anime wasn’t too bad. The story was ok, a bit mediocre (to be expected from ecchi series, huh), it was kinda funny at times, and it was easy to understand. Also, for some reason, I didn’t think the fan service here was not as vulgar as in ... other ecchi series I’ve seen, like Maburaho. Maybe the fact that the fan service was an integral part of the series made me think that way. I would also like to note that it ended considerably well, and was able to match my expectations.

Another huge cast of characters in this one. Surprisingly, the main characters (Izumi, Mitsuki, Anna and Yoshitaka) had good chemistry among them. As for the other characters, they lacked charisma and forgettable. What’s even more annoying is the fact that they introduced one more character towards the end (as if there weren’t enough characters for a 12 episode anime already) and I can’t remember her name either. All that I remember is that she’s just as annoying as Izumi, who’s probably one of the dimmest anime characters I have seen. Mitsuki was cool though – she was cutesy, but not annoying. Same goes for their younger sister Karin, who’s twice as adorable as Mitsuki.

Speaking of the characters, they have to be the horniest cast of characters I’ve seen ever since please teacher! Everything dirty you can think of is in this anime – Lolicons, a dominatrix, S&M, incest, pedophilia, girl to girl love love and more. That incest bothered me the most, but it was discreet and disappeared from the storyline after Karin was introduced, so I forgot about it a bit.

Drawing style was average. The landscapes, colors and details were really good, and there was even use of CG (Minimal), but the people were poorly drawn. I am surprised at the quality of the art style shown during the ending theme sequence – I’m assuming they’re from the manga version. If so, The manga version definitely had better illustrations.

The music was okay. For some reason, I felt the opening didn’t compliment the series very well – something was a bit off. However, I did like the ending theme. It was cutesy, and it was definitely for the anime. The BGM wasn’t bad either, if not, it was good. It fit the scenes very well, and I like the BGM that was played whenever Izumi would show off some skin and Pochi the alligator would get all hot and bothered (I can’t believe I said “hot and bothered”) The voice acting wasn’t bad either. I thought it matched the characters very well, and I didn’t think it went against the characters’ personalities.

I have to say it wasn’t bad. All throughout I kept thinking to myself that it was better than Maburaho, the last ecchi I have seen. I’m not a fan of ecchi at all too, so saying that this anime wasn’t bad means I’m speaking highly of it.

He is my Master, is a very... uninteresting show to say the least. Its true purpose is mindless repetition and ecchi shots, anything else is purely coincidental.

If you watch this show you must keep in mind that the show mainly evolves around middle schoolers, which means they all have a middle school mentality and do not know very much about adult life, other than the sexual parts. And the deciding factors throughout the entire series are contests between two or more people. So, for example when they were fighting for someones love, a contest would commence.

Story 5/10

There really isn't any story to go on since ... the majoirty of the show was pretty much random. The story starts out with Izumi and her sister running away from home. While walking along a side walk they find a sign claiming that the owner of this giant mansion is looking for live-in maids and that is where it all starts. The story dives a little deeper about 8 episodes later, but it is almost completely irrelevant when there is so much randomness happening.


Sound 7/10

Although the sound wasn't top notch there were a few moments where the music was good and the music almost always suited the moods, that's usually because the moods were almost-always carefree and energetic.

Character 6/10
Although there is very little character development, this doesn't detract from the story. You will learn a little about each character but everything is pretty much skin-deep.


Art 6/10
The art is pretty much what you'd expect from a show that was released in the early 2000's. The art doesn't show a lot of ecchi moments, there are not a lot of panty shots, but there is a lot of cleavage and sexy dresses to go around. I suppose giving a middle schooler a sexy dress is less offensive than giving a 6 year old one, so there's at least a good thing.

Enjoyment 6/10
After a while I got very bored of this show. If there wasn't any ecchi shots going on, they would be doing some kind of mindless contest. Like before, you must consider a middle-schoolers mentality when watching this show. I don't typically like it when the main male protaginist is a pervert always wanting to grope every chick he sees, but in this case it was really bad when it was a middle schooler doing those things.

Overall, after 13 episodes I was finally relieved that I was done with this show. I thought it would be a good show, but all of my expectations were disappointed.

Story
The plot was really weak, just an excuse to get some girls in maidoutfits at a perverted guys mansion. The reason they moved out was just silly, and in every episode they had some sort of contest, and that irritated me a lot. I also disliked the fact, that the storyline took some too unlikely turns. Other than that, you can say that this is very shounen, with fast pace and high intensity. At least I wasn't bored.

Art
The animation was okay I guess, but nothing more. I didn't really like how the characters were drawn.

Sound
I found the soundtrack lame, with cheesy background songs. Opening ... theme was mediocre as well, but the ending was kinda good. There were some good voiceactors here, at least.

Character
The characters weren't that good, to be honest. Yoshitaka is the kind of male character that gets on my nerves, with his behavior. Izumi was okay, and Mitsuki too, but she was too much into the contest she came up with all the time. Anna-chan I liked a bit, because she was funny, and she spiced up the series. As for the side-characters, they were either lame, perverted, bland or boring. Meh, most of the characters were there just to let the creators make some more ecchi-moments. And what's up with having an alligator almost as a main character?

Enjoyment
The show entertained me, at the least. It was a funny and brainless watch.

Overall
This is the first show i rate as a 5, but there were simply too many things that irritated me to give it anything higher. But it was a bit entertaining nevertheless, so if you're looking for something easy to watch, watch this.

5 / 10

He is my Master is definitely very different from other "Master and Servant or Butler animes". It seems that this anime can be a disappointment to all the "Master and Servant genre lovers.

Story:
The main protagonist breaks something valuable and is forced to be a maid... Now thats VERY....... BORING AND UNORIGINAL.

Art:
Ill just say its fair because there are also a lot of Ecchi Maid lovers out there. For me the art didn't compare to Hayate no Gotoku, Kamen no Maid guy or they are my noble masters. The art tried to get the Lucky Star & Kamen no Maid guy Art, but it failed. It ... goes to show "2 much of a Good thing is bad".

Sound:
Well nothing special the only time it was good is yutaka makes his plan in the end.

Character:
Do you really think the character development goes somewhere in this anime? nuff said the character development for me is POOR. The should have atleast given it a better one

Enjoyment and Overall:
I hated it. Sorry to those He is my Master Fans but "Some People have their own opinions".

Kore ga Watashi no Goshujin-sama (English: He is My Master), is a comedy/fanservice/parody show by Gainax. (as you can see from the picture bellow there are a quite a few Gainax references)

As you can guess from the genres the show does not have much value apart from the comedy, that means that it can be hit or miss depending on how funny you found it.

The story is about a rich kid whose parents died and left him an unimaginable amount of money and a big mansion where he lives alone. Two high school girls who ran away from home end up working as ... his maids cause of some comedic turn of events. That's about it for the story, which is fine since the focus of the show is mostly slapstick comedy.

The animation and sound are about average. The character designs were nice and fitting for the type of the show. The soundtrack is average and not memorable, the same goes for voice acting.

Even the characters themselves didn't go past the stereotypical ones. You have the male perverted lead, the tsundere girl, the little sister who knows all and is always plotting for amusing situations to happen, a lesbian who tries to assault the main girl and an alligator pet (who is also a pervert).

As I said in the introduction, the show is nothing more then a comedy. I must say I enjoyed it a lot since it fits my preferred style of comedy. The show delivered exactly what it was supposed to. So should you bother with the show? Well if you enjoy mindless comedies then yes. It is short and does not try to be something it is not.

Final verdict: 6/10
fine but not good.

This starts with a good story of two girls looking for work as they have runaway from home, they take a jobs as maids in a big house owned or left to a school boy or plays on the fact, they have nowhere else to go and tries to get them to be he's slaves and where whatever he wants them too...

But there is just one problem, they have a friendly crocodile with them who eats he's Koi carp and can be too friendly. Also the older sister doesn't always agree or do what the master wants.

So it's a crazy soft hentai anime.. rubbish, boring. ... 12eps no way!
