Honestly, looking back at this at 2019, I can say without qualification that this is a really good anime. Sure, the story may have seen really generic with little to no substance, but the show really makes it up by doing good animation and likeable characters (mostly the heroines). It was really enjoyable.
When I compare the animation quality in 2019 with those in the 2000s, it is obvious that the animation industry has gone through a lot of changes and unfortunately, these changes are not positive. The animation execution quality really took a hit in the 2010s with the implementation of horrendous CG to save some costs. Its a sad state of affair. I really hope that the Japanese begin to reflect on the better anime era in the 2000s and change their current practices.

Imagine a story where the MC possess 0 vices, passes up on every opportunity to move in on his "love interests" and makes girls fall in love with him after taking them out shopping once. This is the kind of story Princess Lover is. It's utterly contrived , childish and nonsensical.
The story is a boring pile of drool, there's a guy named Teppei who likes swinging a sword for fun ; a group of large tits show up , he takes them shopping with his 8 digit Visa card and they want to suck his cawk. End of story.
The characters are a total disaster, the MC is a guy who gets a hard on while dancing with a girl. Spectacular. The girls posses 0 traits, just a plethora of green, pink, blond headed zombies who want to devour MC's crotch and credit rating.
The jokes are more boring than a tourism…

At first glance this may seem like an ordinary ecchi, harem anime wtih little to no story. But I surprised by the animation, it may be a little choppy from time to time but the fact that the characters move WHILE talking (at least a little).
STORY
The story is better then some of the other harem anime i have seen but i wouldn't say its good either. Its like Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dances story in a way
like "I lost 6 liters of blood but i can still fight for my friends" type of story. So i didnt enjoy it THAT much. The harem is not satisfying at all...
ART
The art is literally the most average art I have ever seen...
SOUND
I didnt like the soundtrack, but im sure some of you will :)
OVERALL
Its a great anime about oppai and rich people, with average art and (in my opinion) bad soundtr…

When people say this isn't your typical harem anime THEY ARE LYING TO YOUR FACE. Just like every other anime a majority of the girls fall in love with the main protagonist for next to no reason and the further in the anime you get the less sense everything starts to make. Normally for a review a would talk about the story in detail but because this one is essentially only a slice of life for the first 7 eps im going to only briefly talk about them. Warning contains spoilers
Story:
The story centres around Teppei Arima who becomes super rich after been named the heir to the Arima corporation. He then finds out that he has an arranged marriaged to Sylvia Van Hossen.
The first 3 eps is simply introducing the cliche' harems girls (none will stick with you for very long). After that until e…

There are a lot of harem anime around there, but this harem anime was the only one that made me emotional. Princess lover focused more on romance than ecchi, and that's probably the reason why I got more emotional.
The characters were different, especially the MC. Instead of a shy and normal protagonist living a normal life in a normal house, It had Teppei, the heir of a rich man living a dangerous life in a huge mansion. I've never seen any character like him. There's a lot of Charlottes and Sylvias out there, but only a few Teppei. Sure, he resembles other mainstream characters, but you can see that his personality was different from them.
As to the plot, it was perfect. There were no holes other than the open ending. What made it unique from ther harem anime is that it had a balanced…

I've thought a lot about what I think is useful when starting to watch an anime - criteria that might change my thoughts as to whether or not to watch a series. I’ve customized this list to what you typically see in ecchi series. First I give the criterion, then I define the parameters of the criterion, then I state how the series matched up against the specified parameters. I also note how things like art and the soundtrack affect my overall rating of a series (along with what I thought of the two components), if anyone is interested in that.
I don't claim that this criteria will be universal - different people have different tastes and value different things, but this review is what would make/break watching a series for me. Mild spoilers ahead.

"Ill deal with it somehow!" - Teppei Arima
Teppei, a young teenage boy who lived with his mother and father in a social status that could be considered poor, but he was happy. Unknown to him, his life changed dramatically after his parents died in an accident that could be related to the recent attacks on the rich families in his area. Accepting his grandfather's adoption, Teppei is forcibly thrust into a world where he went from poor to filthy rich. The romance/comedy/action that ensues following his attempts at adapting to the rich life is one worth watching.
I found Princess Lover! One of the unique harem/ecchi/romance anime that I have seen. Contrary to the many harem anime out there, Princess Lover! put on its own style despite being adapted from an adult visual novel.

Story: The start of the series seemed like it could have been a decent show, enjoyable to watch, decent character development and fanservice. Can't forget fanservice. But, it seemed like romantic and awkward moments were just being tossed at you between Teppei and Charolette, but seeing Charollete often, i didn't really mind ;D. The real story only kicked in during the last few episodes so it seemed as if you were just being assaulted by a very predictable story line.
Art: Some very good art in this anime, structures and backgrounds as well as character details were great. Once again, the fanservice of pantie flashing and big breasts was still there, as well as many ecchi moments in the later parts of the show. All in all, good art.
Sound: Voice acting was fairly decent, opening and clos…

I was actually suprised that i picked this anime to watch or that i actually enjoye watching it although i still ended up asking myself if i seriously just watched and enjoyed it. Well enough blabbering.
Reveiw:
Okay so the story isnt something new, i mean lots of shows hit you with this theme, meaning: average guy today, super rich guy tomorrow. Cliche to say the least but it did well however the overall storyline does seem a bit weak later on as the animators introduced slight contrasting material but still it didnt completely kill it. i say a good 7.
The art was nicely done, and i liked the character styling, however near the ending the animators seemed to forget a few frames. Despite that i say an 8
Sound, well what can i say bout the sound, not much really, would have given it an…

I never thought I would find myself writing another review given the fact that I don't watch anime as much as I used to, but the hilarity that is Princess Lover! warranted another one with my poor command of the English language.
So where to begin?
The plot is straightforward enough...random guy becomes the heir to a vast fortune and has to become accustomed to living as a rich man. So that's where that ends...this anime can be summed up in pretty much one word: Fanservice!
Trying to understand some of the events that goes on as the "plot" progresses is not good for your health and I highly advise against it. Seriously...some of the events that occur are downright outrageous and make no sense whatsoever. So stick to the reason why you chose to watch this, okay?
Being the fanservice an…

I actually read the first chapter of this manga before i saw anything about the anime counterpart. The manga actually started off very differently with the focus on the princess alone, but that's beside the point. Overall I really enjoyed this anime, it was a nice watch. It starts off intriguing and then kinda slows down a bit into a nice good-hearted watch. However, it actually gets serious pretty abruptly, and the serious section is quite nice, and at times a bit darker than i expected (people actually got shot!). The characters are all nice, if not a bit small of a cast, the main guy and the girls taking up pretty much most of the focus with very little light on others. The animation is fantastic, and yes, gives nice ecchi moments because of it. Actually, it wans't that bad when it came…

Ok so story, this the most predictable beginning I have ever seen If you watch the first episode you will understand what I mean. In the first episodes I was thinking ok it seems like fun average school theme. I guarantee that if you continue to watch this ridiculous storyline of the anime you will surely feel disappointed by especially somewhere around 8 or or 9. Pretty much no effort at all( Lets be honest after the first episode you'll understand how the story plays and who wins but there are a couple of funny scenes in there).
Art- For this a 7 because not of the over-sized melons(well maybe a little) but the environment and architecture was very detailed to a certain extent.
Sound - I mean it really depends on the quality of the video.
Character - No surprise... abnormally large…

wow... I really don't know what to say. I never would have thought that I'd watch an anime that had the words "Princess" and "Lover" in it, let alone both of them together.
The story is exactly the kind of stuff that I love. A decent, average guy that gets thrown into a world where he has no idea what's going on.
The great thing about Princess Lover is the fact that the protagonist isn't one of those clueless airhead guys. He knows that the girls around him love him, Hell they even say it to his face, and hes man enough to take it into consideration and go with the flow. He doesn't hurt them like other guys do.
I would highly recommend this anime to anyone who is interested.

Princess Lover, not your made in 10 minute harem story where the girls just automatically plastered themself on the main lead.
The story is about a poor boy who found out he had a extremely rich grandfather after his parent's death.This is the very boy who ended up being the successor of his grandfather's business and the same person who is loved by two princess character female lead which are actually princesses.
This anime do not have the " I Love All " ending where the guy doesnt decide who he likes and just continue his life with all the female leads.
He chooses and decides the one that he loves and goes all out for her risking his very own life.
I definitely enjoyed this anime very much, it would be regrettable as a anime fan to miss this anime, it picks up right on episode 1.

Princess Lover from the get-go looks like your average harem, with the regular guy who gets lucky with all the girls. There's no exception here. This was a pretty bland ride throughout the entire anime, and mediocre at best.
Story: 5
The story here is nothing original. You have your male protagonist, Teppei, who seems to be your average high school student. Soon after, though, you find out he's someone who's rich. Not to spoil anything, but from here on out the story doesn't even matter. It's a continuous nonstop ride of events that don't connect very well together, and the creators trying to make sense of it all. The way the anime ends was very anticlimactic as well.
Art: 9
If there was a very good pro about this anime, it's that the art is very good looking. There were very few bad fr…

This is the greatest drama series I've ever seen, be it manga or anime.

Drama:10 l Tragedy:4 l School life:4 l Inspirational:8 l Wholeness of plot:9 l Harem:8 l Comedy:6 l Romance:6 l Action: 8
Story:10
Quite notably, there are three parts to this series: Intro, Making allies and crisis. I felt that it is very well-structured and fan-service does not impede the plot at all, except in the first part of ep 6, which was a bit excessive. Little unnecessary scenes.
Especially worth commending are the drama and inspirational scenes, which were aplenty. Drama especially unfolds from the ep7. That means that before ep 6 the mood for the series was quite light, whereas it was heavy from 7 onwards.
Story was original, especially when this is a harem genre seri…

STORY: Princess lover has a great potential of becoming a great harem anime but the thing that spoilt it was the lack of good comedy and the 'falling action'. usually in a normal harem anime, there would be 3~7 episodes when they will tell us more about the characters and for the growth of the relationship between the charaters. i was disappointed when 8~12 because it was already like the end of the story. if this anime was made into a 24 episodes anime, it could have been a great sucess. ART: nothing great. the best thing is the rich background of the characters.
SOUND: the op is not bad but there are no interesting music during in the anime or climax.
CHARACTERS: everyone was great but i really get boring of personalities like charlotte. she just sticks onto teppei. this way, it become…

When asked about the nature of a harem anime, most anime fans think: average guy, surrounded by 3 or more seemingly unattainable girls, in an unusual setting chuck full of breast-grabbing and panty-flashing. Does Princess Lover fall into this abysmal group? Yes, however it had the potential to achieve a lot more than what most harems fail to achieve, seeing how it's based on a rather popular visual novel.
That potential was shown in its characters however that same potential was foolishly squandered with its mediocre story. The story itself is typical, yet intriguing enough to keep most viewers interested. It’s about your average teenage boy named Teppei, living an average life, with his average family... Then shit happens and our protagonist is later forced to live with his super rich gr…

This could have gotten a big fat "1/10" if not for the art/fanservice.
Basically an H-Game that should have been an H-Anime. The storyline is so poorly constructed and contained reasoning so shallow that I have thought to myself "WTF?" or "That's so shallow".
The deal with Princess Lover is that it's basically a harem anime but for the reason of making it feel different (in a disastrous way) from the rest, it goes on by inserting a serious side to the plot which can be seen halfway to the end.
This is where the story becomes irredeemable.
The first 2 or 3 episodes was quite interesting since it feels like a royalty harem anime that feels like it has a potential to be something unique. After the introductory arc comes the annoying "Passing the Club" which has started the downhill trend…

You have a summary of Princess Lover, so I won't bother telling you that. I won't post any spoilers, so don't worry.
Overall 7
Princess Lover started off very good. It had a serious with light humor tone, with all the ecchi-ness included; but, then went way downhill in the second half which really hurt it overall.
Story 6
If I was only rating the first 6 or so episodes, this show would be a 9 because it was very enjoyable. It's very obvious who Teppi likes right from the start (Charlotte) and they have a lot of nice romantic moments. So why did I give the story a 6? In the second half of Princess Lover, this show fails.....very hard. The last episodes were pretty bad. They bring in special ops and the story tries way to hard to be funny causing it not to be very funny. The story tries…
