Review:
To start of this review I'll give a quick synopsis of the setting; which features a young boy in highschool named Izumi Hayato who runs for Student council president and then failures to the other candidate Ui Wakana who wins by throwing condoms into the audience. To which afterwards he discovers that he is engaged to this person, is going to live with her and function as her vice president while in school in which hilarity commences.
From here on out the story takes format of the characters living daily lives while trying to hide their engagement under wraps as well as the Izumi getting into compromising situations with Ui as well as other girls found within the show. This leads to quite a heart warming show with correct amount of balance between Slice of life scenarios and fan service like moments, that help deliver a quick fix of slice of life that is around 8 minutes per episode, which doesn't drag out any unnecessary scenarios keeping the plot smart and simple.
However the plot can be fairly predictable at times with the various scenarios that take place, as such if you have seen lots of anime you will be able to tell how they will end, but even if you have not seen much anime you can take a guess on how they'll all end. This also leads we to the ending which was fairly predictable; with it just ending on a cliff-hanger which brings the series down as a whole having no real ending.
Next I will talk about the characters which are quite few for a show like this but this is a 8 minute show so it was best to keep it few to minimum cast. To start of I will talk about the two main characters the first being Izumi Hayato who has a very simple personality being the stubborn, smart man with straight man humour added alongside it which fits the show but he could be replace with anyone else and still feel the same; and secondly the their is the main heroine Ui Wakana who has the child like personality crossed with an adults mind during the more scandalous scenes which gives her a certain charm and has a nice fit for the show. Both don't get any real development through out the series but this is be expected given how long each episode is.
The supporting characters of the show are mainly comprised of other candidates to tempt Izumi anyway from Ui and provide various fetishes the viewer may like. The first set I'll look at is the rest of the student council which comprises of a cosplaying girl (Ayane Niikura) who barely appears and small Tsundere girl (Karen Fujisaki) with feeling for Ui and a hatred for Izumi who serve as more as comic relief than anything.
Next is the Disciplinary squad who fight against the student council's view on relationships (the throwing condoms into the audience part and the aftermath), in which only two characters from their are introduced, the first being another small character (Sato Sawatari) who plays the loli role and has a rivalry with Karen but is never stated why and has a similar personality as looking up to her leader, Rin Misumi who serves as head of the Disciplinary Committee as well as turning into Ui rival in love part way into the show, and is primarily used as to create conflict as well as fill in some of the ecchi role.
There are some other characters not mentioned but they have barely any presence and don't much so I feel they are not worth touching upon.
Next is the animation which is decent and isn't really worthy of any really mention, which can also be said about the soundtrack which didn't stand out much and I can't describe how it sounds on its own as I can't find it however I can say the OP and end of the show are a nice fit having a warm and comfortable feeling to them.
Final Scores:
Story: 6.7
Characters: 7
Animation: 5.5
Soundtrack: 6.1
Final Verdict: 6.3/10
Ranking System:
10 - Perfect Masterpiece
9.6 - 9.9= Near Perfect
9 - 9.5 = Excellent
7-8.9 = Good
5-6.9 = Average/Mediocre
2-4.9 =Bad
1- 1.9= Unwatchable
