If you like comedy, harem, ecchi this is totally for you, otherwise definitely skip, there isn't really a deep plot. I really like the island aspect these kinda environments are absolutely my thing.
Just gotta give it a 10. I totally agree that this doens't apply to everyone, but for me, I'll rate it on how entertaining it was for me, as I just couldn't stop watching because it was too funny, basically binged the whole Anime (which I usually don't) and am still reading the manga.
As of today the manga is still going on, I would totally love to see more seasons, but that's probably not going to happen.

I rarely care to go into detail for reviews however this one needs it this anime while not the worst was a cash grab trying to get on a hype train of harem anime back then it failed to do the manga justice in most manners character portrayals were altered or muddy at best they skipped large portions the the manga (that I think are needed to properly enjoy and understand where and what is going on) this is a very sad attempt at a very amazing manga if you want real details and to know what you missed check it out even as I write this I rather sure the author is still making

Who doesn't love harem anime? And an all female island this time, getting creative with it I see. This is basically a straight comedy, there's no serious drama or romance anywhere to be found. Just a hapless protagonist with a Marty McFly "chicken" kind of trigger for the word "impossible." His only character trait is that he will never give up or let you say something is impossible. Admirable but not exactly the sort of thing that's going to help him survive a harem anime full of just about every gal game trope under the sun.
Part of the fun of watching this was trying to guess each girl's character archetype just based on their appearance and first few seconds of screen time. You can make a game of it. This is the dumb one, the tsundere, the glasses girl, the reliable older sister, the…

The ending was just terrible. like what was the whole point of it, all that emotional build up just for that?? The characters were for the most part pretty bland. The only girl i actually cared about was Suzu as she actually cared about the MC and his feelings. Everybody else just cared about themselves. Some episodes are entirely skippable as they didn't add to the story. Like around halfway through the anime it felt like they gave up. Mostly because the plot dropped off dramatically, like the whole spa episode you could skip along with others. The MC at least wasn't all that pathetic and weak, like he actually started training when he saw himself as weak. Overall the series as a whole was pretty average but still enjoyable if you've never seen it before. 6/10.

Nagasarete Airantou (2007)
Most people can only dream to be stuck on an island that has the capability to support you and your new-found island harem that is protected by freak weather and therefore remains uncharted.
We have Ikuto a young man who runs away from home to seek a new life. Initially, he realises his mistake due to leaving his sister behind whom he cares about very much. He is somewhat hesitant about being on the island of dreams but is swayed over time. Suzu the other main is a girl who's parents suffered a fate together along with all the men on the island that Ikutos sister eventually uncovers as her fate later on.
The show is old but the art is still great. 2007 released this wacky romantic comedy that is excellent to watch.
Characters are wide and varied.
Suzu is…

I will try to keep it short. Airantou was literally my first ever anime to watch in Japanese with English subs. I had watched previously dubs of some popular anime but Airantou was the anime that introduced me to the anime world. It is also the series that created my never ending love for harem.
So for people who are new to anime, Airantou will be a good deal of enjoyment ...well only if you watch anime for enjoyment. For people loving dark fantasy and thrillers, this is not for you.
Well for veteran watchers ...you will find it as cliche as it can get. I realised it after I watched tons of other harem series. But you could always watch it if you have nothing else to do. It has it's fair bit of comedy and some quirky characters that were not cliche during it's time.
That's it for the revie…

During a huge storm Ikuto falls overboard and is swept away. When he regains consciousness he finds himself on an isolated forgotten island. When he meets the locals he learns that it is impossible to get off this island easily and that this island is only inhabited by females due to some tragic accident. Being the only male around soon the young ladies start to fight over young Ikuto so much that it’s already scary.
Nagasarete Airantou is obviously a harem show featuring rather young characters, but the settings of this story have a lot of logical inconsistencies. However, this show wasn’t meant to make sense anyway, so if you just accept the settings how they are, you will see some nice harem comedy, while even though there are a lot of love candidates, you will know who is going to win…

I loved it. Watch it. Re-watch it. Re-watch it again. When I first saw this show, I knew that I would love it. It was one of those "love at first episode" things.
Story was great. Guy falls off a ship running away from home, floats to an island populated completely by cute girls, they all fall in love with him, every guys dream. NOPE. Not Ikuto's. The entire show he wants to get off the island, but guess what? It's impossible to leave, so it looks like he's stuck there for life. Let me tell you, if all I had to give up was Electricity, Plumbing, TV, Phones, Videogames, and Store Bought Products to live on that island, I'd be over there in a heartbeat.
Art was great. I liked the way the characters were portrayed, I liked the scenery of the island and it's multi-climates, it was all great.…

Nagasarete Airantou is in many ways a great anime. It's a harem anime down to its very core, but don't let that chase you away. The comedy in it is fantastic, the girls are very cute, and the romance in it is decent. Now that the complement's are out of the way....
Nagasarete as an anime suffers from the same problems as any other harem anime: it really feels like once you've seen one harem anime, you've seen them all, and this one is no exception. Just like any other harem, there's one male lead, and batches and batches of women who adore the male lead. The male lead is quiet and reserved, gets greatly embarrassed whenever any ecchi things happen, and he gets very protective whenever any of the many ladies are in danger. It doesn't really add any new spices to the same old recipe, leavin…

What do you get when you combine a teenage guy with an island full of young women (except for one) and creatures that look like pokemon? You get Nagasarete Airantou, an extremely hilarious show. To show you just how much I'm impressed with this anime I'll tell you this - if the island of Airantou was real, I'd swim across all the oceans of the world to get to it... or I'd die trying.
Yes ladies and gents, Airantou is a paradise like no other. However, before I describe the epic scenery of that island let me start with the story. It's very banal, in fact anyone with half a brain could come up with it. We have a teenage dude Ikuto, who one day has an argument with his father and decides to run away from home. He boards a ship which cruises around the Pacific. One day however there's a terr…

when it boild down to it this show is a harme romantic comedy, it is almost everything i hate about anime, the only thing worse then all the things in this show is when i ended up loving the show,
the comedy is actualy very funny and leads to many original set peices since the island the charecters are on, is completly new and crazy, its fun crazy, original and just fun to watch,
i do need to give props to the romance though seeing how the main one between ikuto and suzu is much more well handled then any other harem ive seen, for one they dont fall head over heels for eachother at first sight, ide say romance doesnt start till around episode 10ish giving the two time to develope towards eachother, the only con about the romance is theres no conclusion to it but i can forgive it cause th…

I really like this anime, it's a super cute romance one, none of that mushy-gooey love, it's the one that is just. . . . cute! The plot is really cute. The art is really good and the characters are all well developed and very funny. This anime is super good, I defiantly recommend it!

Ok as an introduction this is a typical ecchi show, a boy around a bunch of girls you may know what can happen here xD
as one of my fist ecchis got a really good time with this one. however if you have seen a lot of shows in this category you will find it kind of boring.
story: 7/10
a boy that get lost in an island full of girls that is basically the whole story. anyways is kind of stereotypical characters exept that there is not a pervert man :/
so basically the story is pretty common nothing extraordinary but still fairly good if you count specifical situations.
Art: 10/10
Cute art fits the anime, nothing to complain here is the jack of all trades of anime art here xD
Sound: 8/10
again nothing out of the ordinary, the music made its purpose but didnt left a mark.
characters: 9/10

Any man's dream - except maybe this one's.
In regards to the episodic portion of "N.A.", it can be best characterized as a bitter-sweet sandwich: The bread surrounding the (insert lunch meat here) is insanely good; buttery, slightly toasted - not raw, but not too crunchy, and delicious. The inside is the letdown: whichever typical sandwich meat you chose, take that, and try eating it a month passed its expiration date. No. Thank. You. Sir.
Even though the story may sound unoriginal, "Oh, no one's ever thought of THAT before," because, truly, everyone has at one point. However, the creators attempt to differentiate from the typical "cast-away" feeling. They attempt to convey a sense of a "home away from home that's other-worldly." They might do this through the abnormally-sized produce (an…

Nagasarete Airantou is by far one of the best romance drama's ive ever seen. it starts off with a boy that runs away from home. he gets on a boat and gets thrown overboard... know what the people on deck do... throw him a life preserver and hope he lives. He later gets "caught" onto an island full of girls.
without saying to much about the rest you can sorta see some of the things that will come but you'll never expect somethings likes the "guardians of the island" and the strongest out of all of them is well yeah >.> something "scary". The ending sorta leaves you hanging(you'll know what i mean when you get there) and wanting more and causing you to run around your apartment complex like it did me but hay, that sort of thing only comes if you really enjoyed it am i right.

The dream of most men is realized in this anime, as the wish of being stranded on an island full of women is granted to Ikuto Tohoin, who was running away from his mean father, who put him down after everything he did. After that, he begins to live with a girls named Suzu, who seems to be the only girl on the island with neutral feelings towards him.
What's very interesting (well at least to me) is that this guy gets nothing, and there is not a hint of ecchi in here! Weird huh?
Anyways, the series is pretty long, with those small short stories sprinkled throughout the episodes, which provide insight into the secondary characters' backgrounds.
Last but not least, this anime had nothing speacial, but the comedy held my attention for some time.
8/10 SERIOUSLY, how is this not an ecchi!?

Upon reading the sypnosis, you might think that this is an anime that consists only of a perverted guy chasing beautiful girls. It's actually the other way round - the girls are the ones chasing him. I first started watching this out of boredom and almost wanted to drop it due to earlier reviews stating that this was a great anime to watch if you had nothing else to do, but I just kept watching till the end, and turns out it was quite a fun anime, worth spending time to watch.
Though it may not have much of a plot and can be quite random, it's still, as said before, VERY fun to watch XD There's no other word to describe it!
The art was great. The girls are beautifully drawn and no details are overlooked.
The opening and ending songs were really catchy. They make you happy =] The seiyuu…

Nagasarete Airantou has to be one of the most cliche and unique animes in existence. Cliche in the fact that its a typical harem rom/com with one guy and three bajillion women. Unique in the fact that there are chibi (sometimes bishounen) talking animals, carnivorous plants, and a high element of martial arts and moral pride in some episodes.
Story:
Pretty typical with a twist. A guy gets a whole bunch of women after him, but its done so in a weird way. He gets stranded on an island where the only males are animals. I haven't seen this kind of harem yet so, it scores slightly average in story.
Art:
The animation is a bit bad, but the artwork of the island and the characters is pretty impressive. Manages to earn a slightly above average.
Sound:
The sound is very cheery in comedy scenes a…

A boy runs away from home, falls off a ship, and washes ashore an island filled with females. It sounds like a guy's fantasy, but Nagasarete Airantou is much more than that.
Story
For the genre, Nagasarete Airantou is a slice-of-life that combines comedy, some drama, some romance, and bits of ecchi.
Airantou, the island that the protagonist Ikuto washes up on, is not a normal island. The village, including the people's clothing and lifestyle, are based on rural Japan. But before that, Airantou is an island where whirlpools prevent anyone from leaving, a mountaintop collects snow in the middle of summer, forests are inhabited by bizarre-looking animals and carnivorous plants and fungi, humans and animals talk to eachother, and a once-every-hundred-years tsunami washes away all the men in…

The purpose of this whacky romantic comedy is portraying every straight guy's fantasy. Ikuto is a teenage boy who happened to get stranded on an island paradise but that's not the whole of it as this strange island is inhabited with girls, all desperate for a man.
This provides the setting of the ideal harem, romantic, comedy because nothing really has to make sense. From the very beginning Ikuto has his pick of any of the gorgeous girls and no matter how cute or crazy for him they are, it is inevitable that he will end up with ****. To my knowledge, only two harem Rom/Coms have been able to produce an unpredictable outcome, full of speculation: "Shuffle (anime)" and "Ichigo 100% (manga)". Nagasarete Airantou is just one of the tonnes of predictable harems being churned out. The other gir…
