Ani ni Aisaresugite Komattemasu (My Brother Loves Me To Much) - 5 episodes
Setoka Tabichana has been dumped 12 times! And on top of that, her brother, Haruka, is overprotective of her. But her bad luck with guys is about to turn around. Or is about to gets worse? This is based on the manga of the same name by Rina Yagami.
I originally thought the reverse harem setup was the 12 guys she's confessed with, which is the complete opposite of reverse harem. But it turns out it will be the beginning of true reverse harem especially when they confront each other in the last part of the series. It will most likely continue in the movie which was released last June but I have not watched it yet. And will probably serves as background story or introductions of the characters in the movie.
I noticed that the top 3 contenders all have siblings of which are all friends with each other. Since it's too obvious, let's spill the beans already. I'm not a fan of the fauxcest. But I love the stepbrothers trope if they are all aware that they're not biologically related like in Brothers Conflict and the case later on with Hot Gimmick. No favorite guy but the brother is cute but too scrawny. When he fought with the thugs, it wasn't believable.
There are many scenes which makes me cringe, particularly the teacher's. I was wondering why there was a teacher in the wallies, oh gawd please let him not be a part of the harem in the movie. But he's funny. I watch so many kdrama nowadays that I'm not used to Japanese humor in dramas anymore. I think one of the characters though like the other guy and not the heroine.
And can you guess which two actors also starred from reverse harem jdrama, Ouran High Shcool Host Club? The first one is easy, it's the doctor, Yudai Chiba who played Haninozuka. And the second one is...the heroine, Tai Tsuchiya who played Renge! Their house beside the sea also reminds me of tdrama, Happy 300 Days.
The drama ends in a note that makes you look forward to watch the movie.
