Contents
Plot
Hayato Izumi runs for student council president at his new high school, but loses to Ui Wakana, a perky and charismatic girl who pledges to liberate love on campus, and throws condoms into the audience during her election speech. He ends up becoming the vice-president on the student council. He soon learns that due to an arrangement by their parents, Ui is going to be his fiancée, and they are to live together. He tries to keep their cohabitation a secret from the school and its all-female student council leadership, while fending off Ui's progressively aggressive romantic and sexual advances at home. He attracts the attention of discipline head Rin Misumi, who later moves in next door with her sister Kei, the school's nurse.
Characters
- Ui Wakana (若菜 羽衣 Wakana Ui?)
- Voiced by: Ayana Taketatsu[4] (anime), Natsumi Takamori (drama CD)[5] (Japanese), Brittany Lauda[6] (English)
- The cheerful, outgoing title character of the series, she becomes the student council president following her campaign to spread love over the school where she passed out condoms. She moves in to Hayato's apartment as his fiancee in an arranged marriage. She is noticeably less serious at "home", where she is unable to cook for herself, often slacks off and acts completely dependent on Hayato. A running gag in the series is that baby chicks appear on the top of her head whenever she gets in a depressed or pensive mood. Throughout the series she tries to please Hayato romantically and even sexually, knowing very little about how to do so.
- Hayato Izumi (和泉 隼人 Izumi Hayato?)
- Voiced by: Kazuyuki Okitsu[4][5] (Japanese), Matt Shipman (English)
- The male protagonist. Hayato is a fairly serious individual who is the vice-president of the student council. He is set up with Ui Wakana in an arranged marriage and must live with her in his apartment. Despite his ever-growing respect for Ui throughout the series, he often gets caught in her romantic advances which make him uncomfortable yet aroused. Hayato is notably self-sufficient, having cooked and cleaned for himself prior to Ui's arrival.[ch. 1]
- Ayane Niikura (新倉 あやね Niikura Ayane?)
- Voiced by: Aoi Fujimoto[4] (anime), Yuki Horinaka (drama CD)[5]
- The student council secretary. She likes to dress up in frilly outfits and cat ears. She is a bit spacey and absent-minded.[ch. 4]
- Karen Fujisaki (藤咲 可憐 Fujisaki Karen?)
- Voiced by: Yoshie Sugiyama[4] (anime), Asami Shimoda (drama CD)[5]
- The student council treasurer. She is petite and is extremely devoted to Ui, harboring a perverted interest in her. She dislikes Hayato and often comes in conflict with him.[ch. 17]
- Rin Misumi (三隅 倫 Misumi Rin?)
- Voiced by: Minami Tsuda[4] (anime), Yuri Komagata (drama CD)[5]
- The head of the disciplinary committee, Rin dislikes Ui's love campaign and its related antics; however, she develops feelings for Hayato after he treats her nicely and helps her in a situation.[ch. 7-8] She and her sister move in next door to Hayato,[ch. 16] Rin later learns of their cohabitation from her sister causing her to become extremely jealous.[ch. 33] In the anime, she explains that she joined the committee because she wanted to disclaim a rumor that she was seducing guys with her large chest by emphasizing her morally pure side.[ep 4]
- Makoto Sawatari (猿渡 真都 Sawatari Makoto?)
- Voiced by: Juri Nagatsuma[4][5]
- A petite girl who looks after Rin like Karen does with Ui. She has a collection of pictures of Rin in embarrassing situations.[ch. 14]
- Misato Wakana (若菜 みさと Wakana Misato?)
- Voiced by: Tomoko Kaneda[4]
- Misato is Ui's energetic and playful mother. Her petite stature makes everyone think she is Ui's little sister.[ch. 10]
- Kei Misumi (三隅 慧 Misumi Kei?)
- Rin's sister is the school nurse who casually dresses in sexually suggestive clothing and whose behaviors annoy Rin.[ch. 7] She and Rin move into the apartment next door to Hayato.[ch. 16] She later learns of their cohabitation from Ui's parents keeping it a secret from Rin,[ch. 24] but later tells her.[ch. 33]
- Ryuji Wakana (若菜 竜二 Wakana Ryuji?)
- Ui's father whose youthful appearance makes him look more like her little brother.[ch. 24] He is severe and strict, although when he is pensive, little rats appear atop his head much like his daughter with the baby chicks.[ch. 24]

Reception
Chris Beveridge of The Fandom Post gave the first anime episode a B+ and said "I’ll admit that the concept is familiar and at the same time goofy, but there’s a certain quality about it that’s charming, sexy and has the potential to be a hell of a lot of fun."[11] He give later episodes B's, writing that "the show does feel like it’s trying to be a bit educational though it tends to fall more on the whole titillation side more than anything else."[12] In his review of episode 9, he wrote that "the show takes things further than reality would in a lot of ways, there’s a lot of fun in just having characters that actually acknowledge some form of sexuality that exists." and summarized the series as "Silly and serious but with a great dose of a fanservice, this show is just a delight to watch."[13] In reviewing the final episode, he wrote "It does things that most shows are afraid to even think of, never mind even trying a fraction of doing when it comes to character relationships, intimacy and sexuality."[14]
