comedyAnime whose central struggle causes hilarious results. These stories are built upon funny characters, situations and events. A comedy anime is laced with humour and sets out to provoke laughter from the audience. Japanese humour can be a bit strange to westerners, so if you`re new to this type of humour, just bear with it; it`ll most likely grow on you if you`re a fan of other kinds of comedy., cookingCooking is the process of preparing food by using heat., ecchiEcchi, or etchi (エッチ), is a common Japanese word meaning "indecent", "lewd", "frisky" or "sexy"; its usage can be compared to the English word "naughty". Among western anime fans, the term is used when vague sexual content, such as skimpy clothing or nudity, is prominent. In Japanese, however, it is a catch-all term for all things anyhow sexual in nature, mild or otherwise., haremThree or more characters, generally female, are under the influence of one character, normally male. Their interactions are romantically or sexually loaded. The female characters often draw heavily from stock archetypes. Sexual tones are applied to the lead`s behavior and to the members` depiction. The lead will often be physically abused for his behavior. The harem may be only a support to an existing or predictable relationship, or the lead may end up in relationships with most or all members., large breastsLarge breasts are breasts a fair notch larger than average, as found in some real life adolescent girls or fully grown women. They are bigger than medium breasts and smaller than huge breasts. Note: This tag has many anime/character entries that need to be moved to the new medium and huge breasts tags. Please add the appropriate tag and remove this one from the corresponding anime/character afterwards., novelA novel is a relatively long work of narrative fiction, normally written in prose form, and which is typically published as a book. Manga, comics, or visual novels do not fit this description and are not considered novels; including a small number of illustrations, however, is still permissible, which means that light novels are considered novels., shounenIn the context of manga and associated media, shounen, literally meaning "youth" and often also specifically "boy", refers to a male audience roughly between the ages of 10 and 18., violent retribution for accidental infringementA comedy / slapstick element often found in Ecchi anime: The hilarity derives from spontaneous embarrassment, overreaction of the "victim" (girl), immediate retribution for a seemingly inappropriate act, and a sense of pity with the supposed "aggressor" (boy).
Another morning at the Toujou household: Maria sets up a special succubus camera that can capture the target's dream, in this case Mio's. After putting an end to Maria's blatant breach of privacy, Basara then tests Maria's latest cooking experiment which turns out to be strangely perverted. Yuki is not phased by any of this, and when Mio finally wakes up the innocent Basara falls victim to her outburst.

The school nurse, Hasegawa Chisato, is wearing a new swimsuit and the zipper is stuck. She asks Basara to help her unzip it...

"Seifuu High School, the newly opened school I am attending, has a new student council president like none we have ever seen." — Izumi Hayato

Izumi Hayato, as member of the student council strongly opposes the president Wakana Ui's "strong push for the liberation of love" at their school. But her charm reaches her fellow students and also the other student council members: treasurer Fujisaki Karen and secretary Niikura Ayane.

When Ui makes an appointment with Hayato late in the evening, little does he know what is in store for him: Ui's irresponsible mother in Canada OK'ed not only that Ui take up residence in Hayato's apartment, but also live there as his wife. This came about because Hayato's father apparently asked Ui's parents many years ago to have their daughter marry Hayato.

And so Hayato's bizarre life with the student council president and self-appointed wife begins...

Spring. It is the beginning of Renge's first school year. To commemorate the occasion she receives a brand new red school bag from her grandmother. And to be sure everything goes smoothly Renge decides to visit the school on the day before the actual entrance ceremony, as a rehearsal.

On her way there she finds a legendary sword, that Natsumi immediately recognizes as such, though the other girls only see a stick. Renge uses it to mark the path she is travelling. Hikage, Renge's sister, needs to go packing and return to Tokyo though, but gives Renge her first bus fee, since starting in April she will have to pay the child fee when taking the bus to school. Not only Natsumi's older sister, Komari, boards the bus to school, but also Suguru the girls' quiet older brother. At school Renge finds out how the upcoming ceremony will unfold. After receiving her own commuter pass, from her sister Kazuho, who also happens to be the class teacher, Renge decides to go to school on her own, the next day. She receives a congratulatory flower from Komari that all first year students wear, partaking in the entrance ceremony.

And so Renge's exciting school life continues with the other classmates and the new transfer student Hotaru from Tokyo...

Three years ago, the world learned that harpies, centaurs, cat girls, and all manners of fabulous creatures are not merely fiction; they are in fact of flesh and blood — not to mention scale, feather, horn and fang! Thanks to the Cultural Exchange Between Species Act, these once-mythical creatures have assimilated into society, or at least they are trying.

When a hapless human teenager named Kurusu Kimihito is inducted as a "volunteer" into the government exchange program, his world is turned upside down. A snake-like lamia named Miia comes to live with him, and it is Kurusu's job to take care of her and make sure she integrates into his everyday life. Unfortunately for Kurusu, Miia is undeniably sexy, and the law against interspecies breeding is very strict. Even worse, when a flirtatious harpy named Papi and a ravishing centaur girl, Centorea Shianus, move in, what should a teenage human with raging hormones do?!

Infamous master thief Lupin Sansei is back once again to do some grand thievery, now in San Marino, Italy. Only this time he's stealing... Love? Rebecca Rossellini, a famous heiress and businesswoman, is now married to Lupin, much to the surprise of Lupin's gang who were invited to the wedding, and Interpol Inspector Zenigata Kouichi, whom has not yet given up on catching Lupin, and even went as far as to crash the wedding in order to give his objection. But did Lupin really fall in love with a woman other than Mine Fujiko? Surely he must have something up his sleeve, right? That's what his right-hand man Jigen Daisuke believes, and the swordsman Ishikawa Goemon wants to believe this as well.

One thing is for certain; He is not the only scheming thief in San Marino. And not only that, but it seems that a cunning MI6 agent, Nyx, is stationed here as well. Just what exactly is in store for Lupin in his Italian adventure?
