How to describe this anime. It would best be said, that if you were really constipated, this is the anime to watch, because holy fuck is this anime shitty.
There is zero plot, and I say zero because the only plot is the owner sends a letter with rules saying the boys can't date you. Surprise, they try to anyway.
The characters are bland, the only remotely relatable character is the glasses guy and he's still terrible. One kids personality is just "climbing" and another one is clearly gay AND a bottom. What am I going to do with that? Nothing.
There's one part in the first episode at the end that shows climbing boy sweaty and moaning in his bed to tease the next episode. Did that get explained? No. Did it come up again? No. Was he sick? NO BECAUSE HE GETS SICK LIKE EPISODE FUCKING 8 FOR…

Despite being a POV anime with a good chunk of fanservice at the end of each episode, Room Mate is an enjoyable anime that embraces the POV format. This one in particular reminded me of a visual novel with how it structured each episode. The story is simple and light, nothing to keep anyone up at night.
The character art is unique and quite stunning which was my original pull towards the anime. The animation is also very well done though that might also be due to the short run time per episode.
Sound is okay and there isn't much to say about it. The ending song is up-beat but nothing spectacular. Definitely something that could easily fade into the background.
Character is what really drove this anime. As I said before, the art for the characters is top tier. Each character pretty muc…

I'm a straight male who believes One Room and One Room Second Season are the epitome of great short anime (OK, slight exaggeration but I still love it so much). Seeing how they also made one where all the MCs are Guys, I decided to see what was on the other side.
It is completely different from One Room. One season of One Room is divided into 3 non connected parts with characters getting 4 episodes each. With each episode, it is always the main character that interacts with the viewer. I thought it'd be the same with Room Mate but boy was I wrong.
All the characters share a house and they get to interact with each other and not just the viewer. It's pretty entertaining seeing this interaction. I actually got a few chuckles from it.
Diving in, I already knew who this anime is targetted…

In short : For people wanting to stare at good looking guys exclusively.
I’m a straight woman.
There, now that this is settled, I can delve in this review without people crying at me that I’m voting it down unfairly because I’m a straight man or something.
First of all, I’d like to point out that I do wish for more equality in terms of fanservice, however, it isn’t at whatever the price. And this short Anime is a perfect example of that.
Story : And actually I shouldn’t have this category to begin with. Because….it actually fails at delivering the most elemental point of a fiction : a story. I know that’ll be confusing for most, since in the vulgar sense of the term, it is, but in the narratological sense there isn’t. Now, I won’t make a narratology course, but let’s just summaries…

Roommate was one of those guilty pleasure shows for me. Well okay, I don’t exactly like it but I don’t exactly hate it either!
First we start with the story, “you” are going to be living with 3 boys as the manager of the place they live. The story is all about how these characters interact with you and soon fall in love with you. With this anime being geared to a female audience that sounds about right. I see nothing wrong with the story and for 4 minutes per episode you really can’t expect anything more.
Now let's talk about characters, each character has their own personality and hobbies. In character design and personality the characters follow the normal character tropes but they also added in character specific hobbies. Acting, climbing and gaming. These hobbies seemed out of nowher…
