The main reason this show works is because of the main character, Aito. Yes he’s a pervert but that doesn’t make him a bad person. And the relationship he develops with the other cast members showcases how society teaches that a pervert is intrinsically a bad person. Accidents and misunderstandings are met with wholly justified reactions simply because of the knowledge that Aito is a pervert. But then there are the quiet tender moments when the girls get to see there’s more to Aito than just the fact he’s a pervert. He actually is a person with hopes and dreams.
Another reason the show works is the fact that the girls aren’t just head over heels in love with Aito for reasons that are never explained. In fact it’s quite the opposite; Otosuna & Kuroi must hate his guts given the way they behave. I loathe the harem show with the main character surrounded by a harem of girls who all like him and he never chooses one for reasons that are never explained (I’m lookin’ at you Tenchi Muyo!).
And, they’re all adults in the work environment. That gives it a more realistic feel as schools are conformity factories; while the work environment forces individuals to adapt and tolerate different individuals with unique personality quirks. The cast is unique and varied so they don’t blend together. The colors are rich and vibrant, and I was especially fond of the mono colored background extras.
In conclusion I found it better than most shows of this variety.It is what it is and doesn’t try to pretend it’s anything more. It does serve as an amusing reminder that perverts are people too and just because someone is a pervert doesn’t mean they a violent felon. I recommend it.
