Synopsis

Born into a family of notorious womanizers, Akemitsu Akagami has been shunned from a young age and lumped in with his lineage as a skirt-chaser. As a result, he despises the Akagami way of life and vows to rescind the infamy of his family by staying celibate. But as fate would have it, Akemitsu falls in love at first sight on his way home from work one day. Unable to erase his feelings that are spiraling out of control, he resorts to his final measure—to practice as a monk and seal away his worldly desires.

Hoping to put his past behind him, Akemitsu travels to the nearest temple in order to receive Buddhist training. But fate tempts him once again: greeting him at the door is the girl he had fallen madly in love with, who lives in the very temple he wishes to train in.

Preliminary (8/? eps)
I started reading it because of the similarities with Grand Blue and I have to say that so far the humour has been solid and the art style really good.
The characters are enjoyable and the story is quite simple and straightforward, so if you're into deep and complex stories it's probably not the series for you
I definitely recommend you give it a try, especially if your into ecchi comedies and if you enjoyed Grand Blue I think you'll truly enjoy this series especially because some of the elements are also heavily used.
Overall quite entertaining and a good comedy.

Preliminary (40/? eps)
I know a lot of folks are gunna draw parallels between this and Love Hina.

Here's the deal though:

1: This focuses on temple rites and rituals. Seems as though research has been done, so I'm learning as well as laughing.
2: Akemitsu has more of a personality than the Harem MC in Love Hina. Dude in that was just remarkably sturdy, which a lot of MC's usually are. Sadly, that's one of their few personality traits.

The story is a lot more straightforward in her than GBD. You have stakes and parameters to be met. Means that the jokes are a lot less, humorous this time ...

Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (9/? eps)
Yo, what the fuck. That's basically just Love Hina with a fresh coat of paint.
Dude goes to a Temple/ Inn to study/ get rid of his worldly sins, but surprise, it's full with beautiful women who hate him at first but then gradually fall for the dude.

Love Hina was THE trendsetter for harem Manga. And while the opinions may vary, it was undoubtedly influential and shaped the Mange landscape.

Temple on the other hand is dripping in mediocrity and has nothing new or exiting for it. No new twists, no new gags. Nothing. Hell, if the at least the MC wouldn't be so Beta it ...
