Story

The series centers around Urashima Keitaro, a young man desperately trying to be accepted into the extremely prestigious Tokyo Daigaku (University of Tokyo) in order to keep a childhood promise. He becomes manager of the Hinata Sou, property of his family and now an all-girls' dormitory.

The story is a romantic comedy of the seinen genre about a clumsy young man who has the unfortunate habit of constantly stumbling upon buxom girls changing their clothes or taking a bath. It trades on a tried and true anime cliche, the one-guy-surrounded-by-pretty-girls story, also seen in series like Tenchi Muyo (and even Neon Genesis Evangelion).

Keitaro's primary love interest is Narusegawa Naru, though all the other girls end up in love with him to varying extents as well, inparticular Otohime Mutsumi.
