Synopsis

When Isaku Senagaki was five years old, the death of her parents left her to be raised by her yakuza boss grandfather, Tasuke. Now preparing to enter high school, Isaku is determined to start fresh with an honest attempt at having a normal high school experience. All she wants is to be able to make friends and find love without being defined by her connection to the yakuza.

But Isaku's dreams are thwarted when her overprotective caretaker, 26-year-old Keiya Utou, takes it upon himself to enroll in Isaku's school by bribing the school administration. While Isaku yearns for a reciprocated love, she is trapped in a one-sided infatuation with Keiya, who only sees her as the boss's granddaughter he helped raise. Her longing for a normal life becomes a constant battle, and breaking free from her heart's grip is far more challenging than it sounds, as Keiya's overprotectiveness and disregard for her boundaries make it almost impossible to move on.

"Ojou to Banken-kun" is a masterpiece of the romantic genre, captivating viewers from the first episode.

The development of the relationship between them is carefully constructed, creating an engaging and passionate narrative.

The scene with the man in the hoodie on the beach especially stands out, which is a brilliant example of how anime incorporates visual and emotional elements to create memorable moments.

Furthermore, the soundtrack perfectly complements ...

Never write reviews but couldn’t not for this one. I could have loved this anime, the characters are likeable, I didn’t hate the artwork like some people did, the storyline of the main characters romance is good (other than the following) But I couldn't get over not just the age gap but what was essentially grooming. Her main parental figure, which is made such a point of, turned to lovers? He’s raised her from 6 years old and now wants to sleep with her at 16? Absolutely not. If you like incest then this is the one for you. Gave me the ick.
