I quite like this anime considering how old it is, I think this is one of them funny super comfy old animes to sit back and watch while you have a drink or some food, I watched this whilst having some downtime, I'm not sure how I feel about a certain relationship and think another one should've been focused. however, overall I find this anime to certainly be enjoyable. I recommend you to watch this anime but I won't, however, spoil it, you'll either like it or dislike it, most of the maids are pretty funny even though slightly cliche. overall I'm very pleased that I watched this, i would be rated higher if I seen the ship head in Konoe Tsurugi directions as i think she was so cute, and seeing her emotions kick in made me continue watching and finishing the anime
I have to also say Konoe…

Don't let the art and the uninspired intro to turn you off. Its predecessor may have better art but this remake/reboot is superior in terms of pacing and cohesion of story. This anime does a great job at making a relatively simple story enjoyable to watch. The ones who created this work did a great job fleshing out each character making them stand out and unique. This is more of a romance anime rather than a harem.
Some criticisms:
The intro is boring and could use a little bit more creativity.
The background art is inferior to the original anime. (The character design is better though)
Not much is disclosed about the MC's life before he became the head of the family.

When someone remakes something usually they do it because the first time around it was bad...or cause they are unbelievably stupid.
Well we lucked out on this one cause they made it better...
This is not Godzilla where a remake just keeps watering it down...this remake takes what was given to us..(and what was given us the first time was like snakes on a plane "you already know what its about" kinda thing) and adds personality and plot design.
Crazy right? To think that they would make this into an actual story is crazy right?
Well all of you who have watched the original..which was randomness...enjoyable randomness but still randomness...and are looking to pass on this....DON'T!
You would be missing out...
So enough ranting let's get right to it...Taro gets money,goes to mansion, has…

Ugh, the lovefest for this terrible show is sickening. Let me tell you all why this show is awful:
You know the plot. Little kid is benefactor to billions, has an army of maids that will do anything for him, etc. We know the storyline. And that's fine. The genre exists because shows that do it right can be fun. (See Hayate no Gotoku, Kimi ga Aruji de Shitsuji ga Ore de, even Ah! My Goddess) A fantasy escape of sorts.
But this is none of those things. In fact, this show is worse, because it had potential and bombed. First, it starts off as a complete ecchi comedy. Episode 1 is 95% ecchi with one-liner jokes and the main character running around his big castle trying to get away from a thousand naked girls trying to smother him (which by the way is getting real old. What boy aged 12 to 90…

Hanaukyo Maid-tai: La Verite: Overall Rating 6/10
I personally thought the beginning of this anime was very boring, but I had to give it a shot. After watching the whole anime I can say it was alright for an anime. I was going to give it a 5, but it was alright for an anime so I changed my mind and gave it a 6.
This anime is whacky in way, it starts off with a young boy named Taro Hanaukyo a 14 year old who is going to be staying with his grandfather because his mother has passed away. All of that change's though when his grandfarther leaves the mansion, for some unknown reason. He is now the new master of his grandfathers mansion, and inheritance of the Hanaukyo family. The maid that tells him this is Mariel, a beautiful young woman that is kind and is completely dedicated to pleaseing…

I'll try to keep this short and to the point!
La Verite is apparently a remake of the original, i skipped the first one and went straight for this remake. One guy, surrounded by hundreds of maids. How can you go wrong?
I liked this anime for many reasons, its a "feel-good" anime that doesn't force you to think constantly. I love these animes when they do it right, i feel La Verite did it great!
It has enough of a story and character development to make it interesting throughout the whole show. Probably Verite's strongest point is its characters, i found it interesting learning all the maids (that are closest to Taro) backrounds and quirks. My favorite maid is probably Yashima. (Shes just really funny day-dreaming about Konae, reminds me vaguely of Hosaka from Minami-ke)
They don't get…

Amazing anime highly recomended great story and great art style but there was supposed to be a sequel cause if u listen and watch closly it says let them have their happiness for now and thats not all the relationship between Touru and Mariel didnt get to really progress which kinda made me mad but i'll i can hope for is that they make a second season but even then the company shut down in 2005.
