Hero Toto possesses great skills, but his extreme shyness has left him unable to form a party, causing him to remain stuck in the town where his journey began. One day, he is suddenly invited to join a party by three beautiful women—Ciel, Anemone, and Gore. Overjoyed at finally setting off on an adventure, Toto is filled with excitement... but little does he know, these women are dead set on killing him! A deathly harem romcom unfolds as the socially anxious hero, who faints from mere flustered excitement around women, finds himself the target of three deadly companions, each with their own reasons for wanting him gone! Note: Each episode streamed 1 week early on ABEMA. The original TV broadcast started on July 12th, 2025.
Where to watch
The verdict
Senpai’s take
Season picksDecentSummer 2025An insanely OP but self-conscious adventurer whose three beautiful party members keep failing to assassinate him. The art style is janky but grows more appealing over time, and though them falling for him undercuts the bit, it is still a very good bit with plenty of laughs.
Worst of the seasonBad but funSummer 2025A super OP, anxiety-ridden hero whose party of girls wants to kill him and bang him, and he faints before either can happen. A tightly engineered ecchi setup wasted on girls who look like One Piece filler extras. The core joke of him no-selling murder attempts is funny, which is good since it is the only joke: one basket.
