Uh oh. Another short visual novel adaptation? I've got a bad feeling about this.

So a 5 minute per episode harem series? I can skip this one now. Most harems don't have enough romantic development for me as is...but when it's down to 5 minute chunks, I'd say that there probably won't be enough comedy for me. Laughing

I feel the opposite; it is just 5 minutes long, so the weekly investment is quite low. Hell, it can even be viewed while on the bus, or train, waiting for your turn at the bank or something.

They gave up, not surprisingly, it looks terrible and generic.

No, I'm not asking for serious romantic development, just some. Most harems have an alright amount, can't imagine how little progress will be made within 5 minute episodes.

Eh, while I feel like plenty of 23 minute episode harem series have romance that can only really amount to fluff, I can't see a 5 minute per episode series even having that much development in the romance department. Add that there are 4 girls, just judging from the images, and I don't believe that it'll have enough weight to it for me to care.

And, while the synopsis for this one does seem more open to the comedy, I just don't know if there will be enough of that to offset the lack of romantic development.

I was too harsh saying I'd skip it. I'll give the first episode a shot. But this is a series that won't be getting the 3 episode rule I usually use. It'll be one and done.
