Mikadono Sanshimai wa Angai, Choroi.

The Mikadono sisters—Miwa, Niko, and Kazuki—stand at the pinnacle of Saika Academy as its Three Royals, renowned respectively as prodigies in shogi, karate, and theater. Unfortunately, they have drifted apart from each other due to their overwhelming dedication to their fields, effectively turning them into strangers living under the same roof.

Enter Yuu Ayase, the son of the late Subaru Ayase, a legendary actress who graduated from Saika. Unlike his mother, Yuu lacks any extraordinary talent whatsoever, much to the disappointment of those who knew her. Still, he transfers to her alma mater with one quiet promise in his heart: to fulfill her final wish that he build a true and happy family.

It just so happens that the Mikadono patriarch is also Subaru's longtime friend and benefactor, and he offers Yuu both a place to stay and a fresh start. Thrust into the lives of three estranged sisters who act cold toward him, Yuu may not be a genius himself, but the clumsy sincerity he brings might be what they all need to start anew.

This anime isn’t very popular and honestly, maybe that’s for a reason. 😅
I decided to watch it after seeing someone recommend it on Facebook (can’t remember who though, haha 😁). At first, I didn’t expect much, but I have to admit the visuals are absolutely stunning.

It actually reminded me of Charlotte (2015), and turns out I was right! It’s made by the same studio, P.A. Works. I’ve always respected this studio; they clearly put a lot of effort and passion into their animation quality.

That said, good visuals alone can’t carry an anime. The story is just as important and this is where my disappointment comes ... in. The plot isn’t bad, but it’s just too ordinary. It feels somewhat similar to Gotoubun no Hanayome, Megami no Café Terrace, or Amagami-san Chi no Enmusubi, but it doesn’t quite reach their level in terms of storytelling or emotional impact.

I’d personally give it a 6/10. Maybe that sounds harsh, especially since the average MAL score is around 7.6, but I think it’s fair. The anime is still worth watching especially if you enjoy light romantic stories with beautiful visuals. But for me, it didn’t leave much of an impression.

Honestly, if not for the animation quality, I probably would’ve dropped it early on. 😂
Anyway, that’s all from me. Thanks for reading! 😁

Mixed Feelings

German text below
--------------------------
I thoroughly enjoyed the twelve-part anime series Dealing with Mikadono Sisters Is a Breeze, even though I find it difficult to assign it to a clear genre. The basic scenario is reminiscent of a typical harem fanservice anime: the boy Yuu Ayase is put up in the house of an acquaintance, where his three daughters—Niko, Miwa, and Kazuki—already live. But contrary to expectations, the series remains free of the genre's usual “accidents” or exaggerated fanservice moments.

The reason for Yuu's move is surprisingly sad and more reminiscent of a light drama: his mother, a well-known actress, has passed away. The acquaintance takes him in ... out of concern – but not entirely altruistically. His daughters are each the best in their school at judo, acting, and shōgi, and with Yuu's help, they are supposed to become even better.

Yuu, on the other hand, is primarily looking for security and a family, which he only experienced sporadically with his mother. The rom-com aspect comes from the fact that Yuu is a complete klutz and can't really improve the three sisters in any area. This leads to some scatterbrained moments in which the sisters develop at least a tiny crush on him – but really only tiny.

The series thrives primarily on Yuu's naive, carefree disposition, which proves infectious over time. Therefore, I would classify the series more as a feel-good family comedy, even if it occasionally touches on other genres.

The animation and soundtrack are appropriate and solid, but not particularly memorable. All in all, the series is enjoyable—it's light, charming, and surprisingly warm-hearted.
--------------------------
Die zwölfteilige Anime-Serie Dealing with Mikadono Sisters Is a Breeze hat mir herzlichst gefallen, auch wenn ich mir schwer tue, sie einem klaren Genre zuzuordnen. Das Grundszenario erinnert zunächst an einen typischen Harem-Fanservice-Anime: Der Junge Yuu Ayase wird im Haus eines Bekannten einquartiert, in dem bereits dessen drei Töchter – Niko, Miwa und Kazuki – leben. Doch anders als erwartet, bleibt die Serie frei von den genreüblichen „Unfällen“ oder übertriebenen Fanservice-Momenten.

Der Grund für Yuu's Einzug ist sogar überraschend traurig und erinnert eher an ein seichtes Drama: Seine Mutter, eine bekannte Schauspielerin, ist verstorben. Der Bekannte nimmt ihn aus Sorge bei sich auf – allerdings nicht ganz uneigennützig. Seine Töchter sind jeweils die Besten ihrer Schule in Judo, Schauspielerei und Shōgi und sollen mit Yuu's Hilfe noch besser werden.

Yuu hingegen sucht vor allem Geborgenheit und eine Familie, die er bei seiner Mutter nur sporadisch erfahren hat. Für den RomCom-Aspekt sorgt die Tatsache, dass Yuu eine vollkommene Flasche ist und die drei Schwestern in keinem Bereich wirklich verbessern kann. Das führt zu einigen schusseligen Momenten, in denen die Schwestern zumindest einen winzigen Crush auf ihn entwickeln – aber wirklich nur winzig.

Die Serie lebt vor allem von Yuu's naivem, sorgenfreiem Gemüt, das über die Zeit hinweg ansteckend wirkt. Daher würde ich die Serie eher als gute-Laune-Familienkomödie einordnen, auch wenn sie gelegentlich andere Genres streift.

Animation und Soundtrack sind passend und solide, bleiben aber wenig in Erinnerung. Alles in allem macht die Serie Spaß – sie ist leicht, charmant und überraschend warmherzig.

Disappointed is how I characterise this show.

While there is potential for occasional enjoyable scenes , it's better described as lethargic show that shines at times.

The majority of the show is at best boring , at most irritating.

The feminine girl mc trope has long stayed past the welcome.

There are tidbits of good writing, maybe a handful of scenes.

... The rest is simply wasted on questionable borderline fetish tropes.

The constant abuse of the mc is pretty repulsive.
"His" constant feminizing behaviour & chalkboard little girl voice wears thin.

Despite it all I found myself empathetic to his character, there was alot of potential here.
