A middle-aged unemployed man gets transported into a succubus princess's harem and decides the weirdest move is the right one: bring his daughter along. The show's actual plot is watching a traumatized girl learn to trust men through the most absurd family unit anime has ever assembled. By the end, you're rooting for a romance that shouldn't work because the show actually convinced you it does.
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 with personality quirks of their own. Succubi need men to survive and to carry on the royal line, so Lotte's dislike of them puts her future at risk, and Naoya, a 23-year-old single father, is brought in as the first member of her harem. Despite the princess's selfish streak, Naoya comes to see that she is actually lonely. He agrees to stay, but with one condition: his daughter Asuha gets to come along too. Her arrival strains his bond with Lotte, and he works to mend it. Expect a fantasy romantic comedy with plenty of ecchi humor.
