Invaders of the Rokujyoma!?

Invaders of the Rokujyoma!?

Introduction

After Koutarou Satomi's father is suddenly relocated for his job, the first-year high school student is faced with finding a cheap place to live by himself. Naturally, he jumps at the chance to move into Corona House's Room 106 for a mere five thousand yen a month. But while everything goes well at first, Koutarou soon gets a lot more than he bargained for after stumbling upon a mysterious cave while working his part-time job. The following night, Koutarou is visited by various seemingly mythical figures, all of whom claim ownership of the poor student's apartment. Among the invaders are Sanae Higashihongan, a ghost supposedly haunting the room, magical girl Yurika, alien princess Theiamillis Gre Fortorthe, and Kiriha Kurano, a direct descendant of the Earth People. But more importantly, each of these four girls needs Koutarou's apartment for her own reasons and won’t back down without a fight! Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!? is a comedic battle royale over a six-tatami mat apartment involving supernatural beings, romantic high school hijinks, and a deceptively cordial landlady.

Quick short review for you guys who enjoys Comedy genre, i highly suggest this anime. Story are quite good, though doesn't make sense. Each characters has it's own signature. And this anime is pretty "family-friendly", though there is some part that might not suitable to watch with your parents (beach scene, probably). The only bad part on this anime is how he could get suddenly fell to the ground and then all of sudden, an appearing of a coin rotating and then met with Goddess Statue(?), and then he woke up realizing nothing. *i am Indonesian so my English is not really good, tehe

When Koutaru Satomi's dad gets a new job in a remote location he thanks his lucky stars when he finds a 6 Tatami Apartment (Rokujouma) for only 5000 Yen a month. He doesn't care that its so cheep because people claim it's haunted. When the ghost actually shows up followed by a Magical Girl, Alien Princess (with attendant) and leader of the invading underground dwellers he is not giving up his room without a fight. A very low key and quiet fight lest they suffer the wrath of the cute classmate karateka Landlady. None of the characters is just a stereotype all of them have their quirks and foibles. From Koutaru's obsession with caching beetles to Magical Gil Rainbow Yurika's constant state of dead broke and the petanko tsundere Princess Theiamillis Gre Forthorthe's deep commitment to the r…

The best part of this show is the beginning. It's lighthearted, it's fun, the girls are cute, and the guy doesn't suck. Great. If it could have stayed like that for twelve episodes, I'd have an eight on my hands. Maybe I'm being generous, but you get it. However, as I watched, I go the feeling that 'Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!?' either didn't take itself seriously enough, or took itself way too seriously, but only sometimes. I had trouble figuring out what the show wanted to be besides a harem (which it wasn't even doing that well, to be honest. Felt more like the people around him happened to be girls, rather than his harem). Did it want to be a drama? If so, there wasn't enough of it, and the presentation was crap. One of these women came from space to invade a bedroom and is literally…

Pls read the whole thing to see gd and bad points and overall rating by me thx! so hi guys it has been a veeeerrrry long time since i wrote an anime review. But the current animes ive watched so far especially this one has made me wanna write a 'hopefully no spoiler otherwise i have to take it down' anime review. So... abt this anime, this anime is well like some of u guys said, its a gem, a giant diamond hidden in the dust and gravel of mainstream animes and other 'harems with ecchi' animes.

Just do it! watch it! the reason why its gd to me u may ask? Firstly,well, its a harem without ecchi, which is something hard to find these da…

This anime is amusing enough, with great deposits of potential. It puts a skinflint student into a run down apartment with cheap rent. Then their appearance make many characters you see only in hardcore shonen animes, Ghost, Magical Girl, a princess of Ancient Cilivisation of Aliens, an Invasion Commander of the Underground Dwellers and so on, so the story is practically overflowing with gag material. Sadly, execution of the story is poor at best, beginning as comedy with good foundations, then taking a turn to shonen crap story, where all the main characters unite under the flags of friendship and hard work and completely ruin the bad guys as well as the storyline. Personally, my boiling point was when the skinflint student MC was changed into Blue Knight of bullshit yore MC. All in all,…

This show starts out really strong. The premise is interesting and really engaging. I like that the harem isn’t the sole driving force of the show. There is a plot and the harem theme ties into it seamlessly. The animation is pretty good and the voice acting is ok. Best of all, it has intrigue and originality. What really turned me off of this show was what happens to the plot. Around the middle it slows violently and becomes almost tedious. The main plot established at the beginning is nearly dropped and replaced by character development. While character development is important but it becomes filler when it doesn’t follow the story. Clearly the producers were shooting for a second season. It seems that they forgot that there must be a first season for there to be a second. The ending i…

[Spoiler Free Review!] In other reviews, people seem to be branding this anime as "underrated". However, I just can't see it myself. I'm always reluctant to disagree with the masses, since it makes me question whether or not my opinion is valid (like, have I missed something?), but if I had to sum up this anime in one word, it would be: "Average". Story: 7 Rokujouma no Shinryakusha is a twelve episode, comedy, romance, harem. Although, it doesn't feel that way. Those tags are quite misleading in the sense that there isn't all that much romance in this anime. There are some crushes and a bit of flirting every other episode, but there really isn't any substantial romance. Instead, the anime focuses on episodic short stories revolving around the array of vibrant characters. One of its str…

Rokujouma no Shinraykusha!? is not any ordinary harem anime I've seen. For the first time, there wasn't a single character that I would find annoying, and well, you'll get some laughs with this anime. There are times that you would not get the storyline, and I didn't get the ending that much but every episode, you'll get to see why the anime is turning into a harem-type anime. The characters are the standouts of the anime. You have your main character, Koutaro, who bought a cheap apartment then meets girls who are trying to get the apartment for their own needs. The girls are supernatural: a ghost, a magician, a descendant of the earth people, and aliens. Well, you don't normally see those kind of characters mixed in a kind of harem anime, but it clicked. Art is pretty nice. I just don'…

Nah man, nah. There are five girls who NEED this one room for their own personal reasons and it's just a harem of bullshit. At best it was a cute anime. There were battle scenes that took place just by coincidence and everyone's friendship came together to help the person in trouble every time. At one point, an antagonist went to talk to a high-council type group to exact revenge on room 106 (or whatever it was) and we never heard from them again. The story was rushed to get through all girls' storylines and it was just generally too much.

I gave this one a try because I had nothing else to watch. Its a very cute anime. Its a harem, ecchi genre but has a very unique and quite a chaotic plot. A guy moves into an room that he finds really cheap and wants to keep it. Suddenly he is found fighting with 4 girls for his room, each that wants the room for their own insane reasons. You have a ghost, an underground girl, an alien (+ her assistant) and a "magical" girl. After getting their shit kicked out by causing a ruckus and demolishing the room by the guy's landlord -- she tells everyone to sign a testament that they will resolve their quarrel without fighting. And thus they end up playing different games to get points and the one with the highest points gets the room. I laughed my ass off. The "magical" girl is sooooo funny…

For some reason, just by looking at the cover photo of Rokujouma no Shinryakusha, makes me think that 1) it would be really funny and 2) the action scenes won't be really serious. After watching, I guess my intuition was right. Story: 8/10 An anime which has a magic girl, a shrine maid, a ghost and a noble girl for its main characters, I have never seen something like this before. The story is based mostly around the 4 parties and them trying to 'invade' the apartment room, which is for some reason, special to them. The story is also divided into stories about each main character. Now, if you think you're going to expect a lot of action scenes because of that, well you're wrong. The anime is mostly towards a funny, romance-y route. A bonus to that is the it's a harem. The harem and ecch…

It pains me to see how unpopular this show is. It’s really sad to see it overshadowed by cliche, nonsensical, and fan service reliant harem shows. You want a good harem show? It’s right in front of you. Rokujoma (how I’ll refer to show) follows Koutarou Satomi and his life with 7 girls, 5 of them want his apartment. You’re probably thinking, “Okay, what’s so special about the show?” Well, unlike most harems, it doesn’t use fan-service for cheap laughs. It literally had almost no fan-service. A harem that doesn’t have an ecchi tag is as rare as a protagonist who isn’t oblivious. There was a beach episode, but even that wasn’t filler. It actually contributed to the plot. Anyways, the comedy is consistent. The gags never get old and the new jokes are refreshing and funny. This shows holds a…

Not every modern day harem is complete garbage, I, I Swear! Prepare for something that while done before is still alright, but leaves something to be desired. Story: 6 The harem genre in general seems to be hitting a stagnant point where there is just nothing new being made that breaks the mold set by other shows before it. That's where Rokujouma no Shinryakusha seems to at least be a bit different. There's not much fan-service and the story itself is at least above average when compared to others in the genre. However due to its limited run time of 12 episodes in the end you'll be left wanting more, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. While it does change it up slightly it still reminded me of another harem Sora no Otoshimono, with the lead being surrounded by girls that can/have t…

To sum up the entire story in a simple sentence: "A mini-harem show with some decent amount of story and rather interesting character backgrounds. Its action and comedy will either leave you on the edge of your seat or on the floor laughing." Now for those wanting to read a little more about it: Before you continue to read, take a good look at the recommendations. This show literally feels like a cross between "Kore wa Zombie desu ka?" and "Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin". Warning though: For those that are not a big fan of Harem-like shows...this may not be for you. Story (7 of 10): Surprisingly, the story seems rather straightforward and blunt. A boy named Koutarou moves into an apartment that he later discovers is haunted by a girl named Sanae. Within the next night various chara…

At first, I thought I saw a season 2 of Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin as the synopsis is almost identical. And I thought it would be a same plot as Nanana. Turn out it's wrong. Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!? is a really great romcom series. Unlike most romcom series I know, Rokujouma is not your usual romcom. Usual romcom made the girls somehow have to cling to the MC to shows her characters. But Rokujouma isn't like that. I had only found this unlikely romcom pattern only in Haganai. Rokujouma started with your usual romcom start. It doesn't start really good for me. But as the story went, it come really great. Each of the harem has their own 'route'. Each of the route really came really great: a good pace with the plot, how each the problem solved in every episode satisfied me, and how I w…

Living alone is a dream for many students or freshman in college. The idea of becoming independent and your own person in a place to call your own can make anyone feel good and more mature than before. But what would happen if your nice and quiet, independent life becomes invaded by strange figures of supernatural lore? Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!?, or Invaders of the Rokujouma. Story (6.99/10): The story of Rokujouma follows the story of Satomi Koutarou over the course of his life in high school. In order to not trouble his father as he travels overseas, Koutarou decided to stay behind in Japan and search for an apartment for himself to live in so that he may continue going to school in Japan. As a result, he was able to find an apartment with a monthly rent of 5000 yen (which is about 46…

[Spoiler Warning] When looking upon the surface of Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!?, one may find that it is "just another romantic comedy". However, it is much more than that. Yes, the interactions between the characters are hilarious and they will get you to laugh every time. However, the true genius behind this show is its strong "parody" element. The plot of this anime involves many different girls invading "Apartment 106" (the Rokujouma), a place in which our main character, Koutarou, lives. For one reason or another, everyone seems to have great affection for this particular building (Koutarou because it is extremely cheap to rent). Thus, the characters are locked in a never-ending conflict against each other, always duking it out to see who can lay claim to the apartment. Truth be told…

Rokujouma no Shinryakusha is a classic example of "Don't judge a book with its cover" and in the anime with its first episode. Rokujouma no Shinryakusha stands as an odd one in the world of harem anime in a really fab way. If you're looking for something different from hackneyed harem this one is for you! The central character of this anime is actually not a character, it's a Rokujouma (a small apartment) around which the whole story revolves. The protagonist is your usual high-school guy looking for a cheap stay in the city. His life takes a complimentary turn when the apartment he rents turns out to be haunted, targeted by aliens, a shrine of earth god and a place for evil-cute magical girls to gather their powers. Yup, all that at once; sounds pretty bad right ? Indeed I had zero hop…

Ok, lets just cut to the chase, what do we have in here? Well, is nothing more than your usual harem type anime, where everything and anything in it was all about the harem, nothing more and nothing less, so I'm just gonna present my ratings the way it is: Story, enjoyment and overall: Mediocre 5. The title of the anime is "Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!?" I can't help by notice Takehaya san's misused of the punctuation like the question mark and exclamation point , well I guess them Japs have a lot to learn about its proper usage, but enough of that, there isn't any story at all and its plot was simply too shallow to say the least, which something that one would commonly find in any anime with a harem genre, I gave it a 5 co'z there is no denying that it just another anime with such genre w…

So somewhere, someone finally got the message that the harem genre is getting stale and is in dire need of a new twist. So why not instead of girls going after a male harem lead, we make the entire cast go after something else instead? Oh I don't know, maybe a cheap apartment unit filled with PLOT DEVICES? New Meta. No one has ever done that before in the history of harem animes. Why make an anime to pander to a certain audience when you can pander to every single harem fan? The anime is a culmination of genres from all across the harem spectrum. It has magic, supernatural, science fiction, all fit into one convenient dorm room at the price of 5000 yen a month. However, while at first glance "Rokujouma no Shinryakusha!?" may seem like an innocent entry to our beloved genre but as…
