We all have parts of ourselves that are lacking in some departments compared to others, that only means we have to allow other's strengths to shine a light in those fields of lack in us to help build us up. And vice versa.

This is a series I've heard a bunch about, but have been putting off watching/reading for no reason other than time and motivation. I roughly glanced over a few reviews across the internet of the show/manga to see if it was really worth a try and if it held any real depth in it anyways the pretty character designs; and a reoccurring theme was talking about how you will probably care about more the sisters than the romance. This is what really pushed me into giving it a try sooner than later. Those opinions were mostly correct too.

As stated above, the romantic harem part of this series wasn't the reason I'd went into it, I was very curious about the sisters themselves. You truly do grow an interest in learning more about each of them throughout the show and watching how their bonds with each other work, and the bonds with Futarou develop. The sisters are all fairly complex characters also, I felt that none of them were super one-dimensional or were only playing off of one singular painfully boxed in trope/stereotype.

At first, I did find it bothersome and jarring when I found out that they changed the girls' original hair color and gave them all different ones for a long run animation format. After a short while though, I can understand the choice and see some meaning in it. Seeing the sisters in this way gives the viewer more contrast between them, helping us see them as they would see each other VS how the outside world sees them. This helps to frame the story more around them as a bunch and how we are going about it learning more about them. This POV shift will make going and reading the manga with a lack of color more interesting I think, as you'd be getting more of the actual world's perspective of the girls. Or vice versa points if you read the manga first, watch the anime second.

Futarou himself at the start is an insufferable, arrogant protagonist; it's this attitude that lands him quickly in hot water with one of the sisters. As the show goes on though, he is shown to have some sort of depth to him and given more of a character background outside of "naïve harem protag who is a loner" trope. More and more care for the sisters slips into his time spent with them all, confusing himself with why he's putting so much of his emotional energy into them when this was only meant to be a tutoring gig for money, nothing else.

Watching this progression and each of his connections with the girls is wholesome in it's own way. Sure, it's implied the sisters all gain some sort of romantic feelings for Futarou, but it was mainly just nice seeing them all bloom out and learn to let another person in, romantic or otherwise. The development of how the sisters feel they can improve themselves through their growing feelings for Futarou makes for some decent character development that keeps the story from being too stale or repetitive.

The sisters, their growing dynamic with Futarou and learning about them through the good and bad moments really is the best thing about this series and makes it 100% worth the watch. If you're into things that dive into family dynamics and the bonds they have with each other, along with the trials that can come with any new relationships; this is one to put on your list to watch.
