First things first. My "reviews" system is explained on a blog entry. Which can be found through my profile.

✦Story
A bit of a nonstandard harem ecchi show. Consist of a guy and 3 girls. Development of strong and mutual love with a certain circumstances. Meaning would be that the girls are a part of a island culture/religion and must serve a certain lord. Obviously our main character is that lord. Main guy wants a simple and honest life and isn't fond of being served and those how the story shall begin sprouting. Slowly uncovering the whole island tradition while living daily lives with 3 beautiful girls. And here their romance and drama adventures go on. There were elements of the story I have mixed feelings about. Starting off that I don't like by principle when girls must serve some random guy who is suddenly a "god", even the "serve" part later on in the manga gave me a benefit of doubt. Whenever it was done through pure love or by the chains of the tradition that are forced upon the main girls from the birth.
But, all things considering it was a beautiful vanilla harem romance Anime. Mutual love by everyone and satisfying enough finale. I love simple and sweet love, if loving couple is intimate or even kinky, It's fine for me. That's why I love vanilla the most, the couple that is presented, doesn't switch and stays together forever. Love and Intimacy are absolute sacred things for me. (that's why I despise with my whole heart our modern culture looseness regarding intimacy, i.e one night things..) So on that part, this Manga was an actual success of a romance harem drama. Not the usual ecchi harem where just exist one guy and bunch of girls and lewd stuff happens or is being done, whereas there is minimal romance development. This manga, delivered.

✦Art
Good enough, nothing amazing, ecchi was satisfying, scenery was pretty, character designs were distinctive.

✦Character
Main guy, our restrained city boy who ended up on a island and met dreamgirls. Got embarrassed when girls were more aggressive, but at the same time pulled himself together when time needed it. A caring fella, with a respectful level of being able to question girls if they do something they might regret.

Then we have our main girls. A tomboyish active girl, who is also shy but grows aggressive. Then we have a intelligent type of a girl, who is strong, but lying to self and wants things to be correct and in a sense be a control-freak, but grows into quite needy girl who simply wants to hog. (and a big hug). Then we have a bit of complex one, one that is a caring, cute, childish yet self-managing and in a sense a big sister of other two girls, but at the same time is someone who bottles stress and is quite hurtful. Those are the gist of the characters with the most importance. There is more to them, but that's the first impression I can give without spoiling anything.

There as well bunch of a side-characters who play a admirable role in character growth and plot progression. Some more than others.

✦Enjoyment & Overall
Did enjoy it a lot, hat lot of hot scenes, a great amount of cute scenes. Actually a bit intriguing yet mixed feelings giving story. Satisfying finale, but I would loved to see some sort of years skip where main character has children.

Anyhow, a very enjoyable manga.
