Introduction
Tsukasa Atsumi is a salaryman who leads an ordinary, solitary life. On his way back from work one evening, he is saved from a demon attack by a mysterious woman in a ninja outfit. Introducing herself as Shizuri Ideura, she claims that demons target people like Tsukasa, who have Samurai Blood in their veins, and that her kind have been protecting them from the shadows.
Told by Shizuri that the attacks are going to become more frequent, Tsukasa makes a deal to provide her with housing in exchange for his safety. To his surprise, he quickly finds out that Shizuri is a shut-in who loves to play video games whenever she is not busy with her ninja duties. As the two spend more time together, Tsukasa grows to appreciate Shizuri's company—and his feelings just might be mutual.

You Have A Ninja Pet At Home?
I'm Living with an Otaku NEET Kunoichi!?, Is an anime about a man who finds a lazy ninja, who just want to play video games, and then he realized, he like to take care of her, despite her being a gamer.
Is this anime high art, not at all. This is good old trash anime, that is entertaining, and sometimes that's all you want.
We have all the ingredients for a trash anime. We have cute anime girl is lazy but gamer, so the people will related to her. The man who's basically a piece of paper self insert character. and the masochist who love to get beaten. and a plot that is full of nonsense and fan service. it's the perfect trash anime recipe.
The character design is fine. You can very easily see the personality by looking, and they look cute even if they are f…

There were a number of scenes in this anime that would have been really moving if they'd actually bother to establish the main relationship but everything feels so rushed. It's like they started the show and we ended up skipping five episodes.
For what it is it's fine. There were some funny bits, the way the main girl had an obvious gambling addiction to loot boxes kinda rubbed me the wrong way with how cutesy they made it but I guess I didn't mind that much, at least not to the point that I'd stop watching or anything.
If you're just looking for something silly, this is pretty good.

Ultimately NEET Ninja is a failed Jack of All Trades that uses most of the tropes & stereotypes in the medium. It lacks story, cohesion & basic formatting to the point some episodes are a jumbled blob full of conflicting tones, genres & ideas. It's another standard 'turn your brain off' perverted anime where it never excels at anything other than Voice Acting & at times Comedy. It lacks any depth or explanation to its world or characters & the only redeemable portions of the show are thanks to the voice actors, referential gags and a number of interactions between side characters, who themselves are stereotypes & references.
The side characters & their antics were the only reason I stayed around, as they provided consistent entertainment. Sadly, the side characters only start appearing af…

its an entertaining show for sure and it its literally just that, story? nah, plot? nah, hype moment? nah, comedy? yes for sure, romance? yes for sure but its ok i guess, in other words its like daily life comedy with some cliche jokes, sometimes gets serious but it wont go deep either since plot wasn't there
take note: iirc the only scenery they show was like their room, beach, maid cafe, park, onsen (hotspring) so base from all these scenery you can already guess what kind of anime is this
well in reality all you see is girl being addict too much in gaming ( no game no life be like), a woman who's in reality a trap for a reason and literally a Masochist for the main girl, a ditzy girl who has bad luck but get restrain from her lovey dovey moments with his boyfriend, and a loli whos ded…

This is a very decent and alright casual comedy anime that is unfortunately under-rated(relatively) because the beginning was just generic bad and probably failed 3episode rule for most. If Salad bowl of Eccentrics was the Hinamatsuri of it's season, then NEET Kunoichi is the Salad bowl of it's season. There are many similarities in characters and premise.
It takes a considerable number of episodes to introduce all of the cast, which also might have worked against the show. But once the cast gets established it becomes pretty good enjoyable comedy. The characters get well defined early and shorts turn into enjoyable gag comedy. Not sure how to put it in English, it's a women centric show? As in the "main" MC is the FMC, the other girls are the next in focus. The male "MC" and another sup…
