Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge (Wallflower)

Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge (Wallflower):



    Kyouhei, Ranmaru, Takenaga, and Yukinojou are beautiful, handsome, young men living in a huge mansion. One day, their landlord, whom they call "Auntie", asks them a favor: to make her niece, Sunako, who's going to be living with them, into a respectable young lady. She agrees to make their living expenses free of charge if they succeed but, if they fail, she'll triple their rent. Due to their confidence in knowing how to deal with women, they agree but, once they meet Sunako, they begin to realize that their lovely living arrangements may soon be in jeopardy.

General Info:
Episodes; 25.
Language;  Japanese with English subs, English dub (I've heard, couldn't find it).

Review:
    I have had this on my 'To Be Watched' list forever, but I was reluctant to do so because the animation style kind of freaked me out; Yuki being the scariest - gomen! I was searching for another to watch and it just kept popping up, so I went ahead and watched it. I was the first episode or two, and if I don't like it, stop. This one had me hooked from the first five minutes. The freaking intro song is beautiful, and the characters are actually quite attractive.
    Once their moving around their better, and also they are kind of in that white no-distinct-facial-features form a lot, so even if their looks did bother me, I wouldn't have to see it all the time! I actually love it when characters go into that sort of form, showing you that sort of slip-stick comedy without the looks.
    I found this anime to be 100% hilarious! There wasn't an episode where I didn't laugh out loud, and I was almost always smiling. I watch anime late at night too, so I learned that slapping your hand over your mouth is a truly defective muffling technique.
    There was romance in this show between Kyouhei and Sunako, Tomao and Ranmaru, and between Takenaga and Noi. So there's plenty to go around, it's just not the main thing.
    Regardless of that, I regret putting this anime off for so long. I don't really have any complaints because the strange anime style actually suits the anime more than if it was what I would classify as more 'normal'. Fantastically done!

Must Watch Episodes:
    Honest to god I truly did love all of the episodes, but here are the ones that stood out more than the rest. There were some between 13 and 20, but I forgot to jot them down....
-Episodes  5,  7,  9,  10,  12,  13,  20,  22, and  25.

Rating:
    I would definitely give Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge 5 out of 5 stars! * * * * *
