What happened to the ecchi anime of the 2000s?<\/strong> Before streaming platforms put entire anime seasons at our fingertips, discovering a new series felt like finding hidden treasure. Anime DVDs, rare conventions, specialty stores, and recommendations from fellow fans were part of the experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me, He Is My Master<\/em> is more than an old ecchi comedy. It takes me back to a time when being an otaku felt like belonging to a small world that not everyone understood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Released in 2005, He Is My Master<\/em> is a comedy anime remembered for its exaggerated humor, eccentric characters, colorful animation, and unapologetically provocative approach. But does it still hold up today? And why does this series continue to bring back so many memories?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to another OTAKUTSUGI REVIEW<\/strong>, where we revisit an anime that takes us straight back to the 2000s.<\/p>\n\n\n

What Is He Is My Master About?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

He Is My Master<\/em>, also known by its Japanese title Kore ga Watashi no Goshujin-sama<\/em> (\u3053\u308c\u304c\u79c1\u306e\u5fa1\u4e3b\u4eba\u69d8), is a comedy, ecchi, and harem anime adapted from the manga written by Mattsu and illustrated by Asu Tsubaki.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The story follows Izumi Sawatari and her younger sister, Mitsuki, who run away from home and begin looking for work. Their search leads them to Yoshitaka Nakabayashi, a wealthy young man who hires them as live-in maids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, their new workplace is anything but ordinary. Yoshitaka is eccentric, enjoys teasing people, and has an unusual fascination with maids. Their daily lives quickly turn into a succession of chaotic situations, exaggerated reactions, misunderstandings, and provocative comedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anna Kurauchi, another character who becomes involved in Yoshitaka’s world, adds even more complications to the household.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
