SYNOPSIS
Naoya's job search takes a bizarre turn when a mysterious girl whisks him away to a magical realm and deposits him in the personal harem of Princess Lotte, a succubus with serious trust issues around men. Scarred by her past, Lotte surrounds herself exclusively with women, each carrying their own particular baggage and personality quirks. What starts as an uncomfortable arrangement shifts when Naoya realizes the prickly princess is actually isolated and desperate for genuine connection, beneath all her demanding behavior. He agrees to stay, but with one condition: his young daughter Asuha gets to come along too. What unfolds is a comedy about fish-out-of-water adjustment, found family dynamics, and learning to break down emotional walls. Naoya becomes an unlikely anchor in a household of chaos, while Lotte slowly discovers that maybe not all men are worth hating. The other women in her life range from genuinely endearing to completely unhinged, creating constant comedy from their contrasting personalities and the culture clash of one human man trying to navigate a demon princess's dysfunctional home.
