The amount of times I needed to cover my screen in order to cover up character's regions is absurd. As a matter of fact, why did I even stick to the end of this awful show? Like this is straight soft core porn with nipples. Okay, there is romance but it's so dragged out its unbearable. Don't get me started on the Blonde hair girl, she's just unlikable. The Black hair girl is not great, but she's obviously the better choice. Also they made her seem really mischievous but forgot to make her do anything devious(She tricked Kano or Kino, whatever, into hanging out with people. How evil?). Just so bad. Don't waste your time on this show.

Ladies versus Butlers! is a harem, ecchi, comedy, slice of life anime. It's a pretty generic anime in each of its perspective categories. If I were to watch this when it came out in 2010 I don't think I would be able to appreciate it as much as I do now in 2022. Every episode felt.. dangerously exciting. There's plenty of nudity if that's your thing, and it's not really sexualized nudity (with a few major exceptions). There are things said that would not fly in today's climate and it was so refreshing to take a trip back to when things were simple and the world wasn't so uptight. I would definitely say give this anime a watch; at the very least it's hilarious.

This show is garbage, shows that end up without a real outcome are garbage, the writer is trying to please everyone and ends up pleasing no one with a half assed outcome, I'll rate this show garbage out of 10. And now, I wasted 6 hours of my life watching this piece of crap because a misleading synopsis and a score that should be 50% less than what it is.

I am angry, furious, pissed off- call it whatever you want.
First and foremost, I spent 4 hours of my precious life (approx 20 mins per ep for 12 eps) watching a perfectly useless anime.
Ok I take back the last three words of my previous sentence, for I will try to review this anime as fairly as possible and let the viewer decide on how useful it was.
__________________Story_______________________
A delinquent-looking guy (not gonna point how cliched that is) suffers because of his looks when he enrolls into Hakureiryou school. Call that a story? I call it a piece of junk that does not have a single aspect of originality in it.
Speaking of originality; it is almost as if the writer just stole a bunch of cliched ideas and bunched them together to form this anime.
There is the "fall down an…

Okay so yes, this show is features copious amounts of *plot* and if that's what you're after you will not be disappointed. Any *plot* connoisseur will appreciate the wide variety of *plot* options on display here, including small side dishes of *plot* and mammoth, quivering *plots* with assorted sauces from tea to hot spring water. Some of the *plot* helpings are actually so generous you might even be like "wow I really like *plots* with my anime, but this is a LOT more than I expected!"
But more importantly--for me anyway--is that LvB has charm, sharp and comedic animation, and a catchy theme song that almost made me not skip the intro every time (almost!). I always complain about genre-shifting, and while LvB teases the romantic drama angle towards the latter episodes it never fully cro…

This show is just one pencil drawing away from being hentai, and that is being generous. Besides that, the only really annoying parts of this show, which can be found in about 99% of anime because, well, anime logic, are the girls with ridiculously big curly hair, 19 year olds that look and act like 6 year olds, and the infamous "when in an intense sexual situation, lets snap out of it and try to say something inspirational in an annoying caring tone".
That aside, it was fun to watch. The audio and art was fine, though the eyes left a lot to be desired as they all look dead. The anime food looks nice and the structures are done nicely.

At first glance it appears to be just another ecchi show focusing on breasts. And it pretty much is. There's very little depth to it, and that's fine.
I don't mean to go on a rant here but some people seem to be under the impression that every EVERY anime has to be thought provoking and meaningful. And if you're of a similar mind then avoid Ladies Versus Butlers like the plague.
But if you understand that context and intent define an anime AND aren't opposed to this sort of material, then you've got a winner here! The girls are cute, jiggly and diverse and it's played up for laughs.
[spoiler]
One thing I really liked about this anime is it dealt with my main issue with harem type anime i.e. "JUST PICK ONE AKIHARU!" No Akiharu is oblivious to their efforts and that makes the whole thing fun…

Ladies versus Butlers!
I watched this anime because of the ecchiness that i wanted to see and i thought this was going to be great but it was just good, i enjoyed it, but not as much as i thought.
Story
It's too simple, is about a boy named Akiharu who is transfered to a school of maids and butlers and attends classes with the rich people and he will find nice people and even if he looks like a delinquent he helps people when they request help from him or when he sees they need help but there will be people that wants to make his life a living hell; The ending was bad, it was an open ending so the story was fine.
Art & Animation
The art is good but is a let down because all the girls have the same faces just with different hair and boobs but is colorful and of course the ecchiness was go…

Ladies vs. Butlers is a typical ecchi comedy, which pretty much sticks to the formula and includes all the standard elements without doing anything that makes it stand out. It's not particularly bad, but then it's not particularly good either. Expect lots of nudity and a few hilarious moments, but no real redeeming qualities otherwise.
Story: 4
A school designed specifically to reinforce the hereditary social hierarchy. If you're from an upper class family, you come here to learn how to be prim and proper. If you're from a servant class family, you come here to learn how to be properly subservient to your betters. (Can you tell I'm cynical?) Fortunately, the anime doesn't really hit you over the head with it, like for example in They Are My Noble Masters. The school is just the setting,…

Oppai!,Oppai!,Oppai!. They're Everywhere!! With Actual Nipple's?? with no Censorship?? Oh dear lord...... My Friend "Excalibur" was always standing strong & mighty. It was at full throttle....no matter how much i resisted....It was like heaven for Breast Lords, while it was Hell for.....well normal Otaku's??. *ehem* Well anyway's despite all of that i at least enjoyed the anime as a Time-Passer and A little Laughs here and there so i will at least make a review for it.
Story (6/10): The story is about a Teenage boy named Hino Akiharu........Who goes around groping and peeping every girl he sees at the campus. Girls fainting,Girls Slipping,Girls Crashing....Girls landing either on his Face or on his Crotch.... for a Harem Anime this one was rather weak...Lol was there any plot at all?? NO!…

Finish watching Ladies vs Butlers and not realizing that i already finish all 12 episode just like that
It ends so sudden that you wanna watch for more but if only your a fan of Ecchi & RomCom with lots of fan service. You might want to try this.
To be honest I'm not a fan of Ecchi anime but this anime was so easy to watch that i can actually finish all 12
episode in just one sit. I mean easy 'cause it didn't bored me at all there's no doll moments the characters was great they gave me so much laugh and the two female lead was outstanding with their role as a Tsundere and a Sadistic but our male main protagonist is your typical average guy making all the girls fall for him with his bad boy looks but good on the inside and even there's no main plot at all you can easily keep up with the…

Oh lord, where to begin... let's see... Interesting at points, weird at other points... overall it's one giant Echii-palooza.
My first reaction to watching this was "What the heck did I just get myself into?". That was only the first episode. Over time, it got better, funnier, and a lot more perverted, trust me. As an Anime Expert, I know a good echii show when I see one. It's got everything you could think of; bath houses, hot springs, hotel rooms, closets, beaches, and in an entire school with like 3 guys and 400 girls, you know it'll be interesting to watch.
The story was interesting, normal guy moving to a school to learn how to be a butler, and what really made me think, was when he got every girl in the school to try and kill him after one little mistake: landing on top of a girl.…

As others have mentioned, LvB is a very fanservicey, ecchi harem anime with lots of romantic comedy, perverted misunderstandings, and yes, lots and lots of oppai. This will probably turn some people off immediately, while others will just go watch it because of the boobs. The show is definately fap-worthy, but it is more than just a show of oversized, bouncing oppai (there's some small-breasted girls too, heehee ;p). Japanese comedy often falls flat to me, but LvB doesn't overdo the 'beat up and abuse the main hero for comedic effect' gag that so many anime 'comedies' never get past. There's plenty of ecchi humor throughout, the girls are hot, and there's even a reverse-trap (girl pretending to be a boy) for variety.
I'd recommend it if you like perverted humor and/or topless anime girls…

Ladies Versus Butlers! The first anime in 2010 i planned, and eventually did watch.
It wasn't bad.. but it wasn't good either,
Reasons Why:
Pros = Gave a new harem twist to anime
Intresting characters, the tsundere, the childhood friend, the lolicon, etc etc
Cons:
From the title, you'd assume this was an action title.. heh, action.. Which relates to my next point, the ecchi, yes, the ecchi.
Ecchi anime certainly have comedic value, but I feel that this was way too much ecchi, even for an R+ anime, i was quite shocked.
This is no Ichigo 100% with almost constant panty shots
It's more of a combination of Hanaukyo Maid Team and Ikkitousen (Battle Vixens)
Cleavage and Nudity, now for those who like ecchi i'm sure this would get a full 10
but from me it gets a 7

I'm just gonna get the obvious stuff out of the way first. Ladies versus Butlers is an ecchi harem comedy that does little to break the chain of "we don't need a story as long there are boobies" shows that we see in shows of this genre. Almost all the characters fall perfectly within some set archetype, and don't really see anything in the way of character development. Also, this show has more of these archetypes than I think I've ever seen in one place, as well all the gags you'd expect in this genre.
Despite this, I still enjoyed this series quite a bit , for two main reasons. The main character, and fact that the non-ecchi related jokes were actually funny.
Story: Didn't really expect anything from the story to begin with, didn't really get anything. The show basically just follows hi…

Well this is my first review i have ever made publicly... I'm not an expert at every anime style or every genre but ive have taken a like to these kind of romantic comedies recently. Very basic and fun anime to watch i would say, with the typical echinnes these types of anime's got, the childhood friend, the stubborn rich girl, the petite girls, etc, etc, and the clueless protagonist which seem to never notice the feelings from the girls that are actually interested on him. I felt that the story was very typical and predictable (I believe that many people who watches these kind of anime's can agree with that) but non the less interesting and attractive. The style and characters reminded me to another anime called Kanokon... and i later found they were produced by the same studio... lol Thi…

[Specialty: Ecchi and enjoyment]
A short note: Ladies vs Butlers is one of quite a few XEBEC productions I've seen. And this has the best colour and animation I've seen, This is *strictly* one reason why it is a 7. Compare it with Mahou Sensei Negima to get what I mean. The story is kinda like a dunno-why-girls-jump-at-guy harem that never gets resolved. Watch it for enjoyment.
[Mood: Light for near-all episodes]
[Explained notable pickings:]
Ecchi: Lots of see-thru underwear and naked bodies, dun worry, there's lots of it. Not all episodes though, sometimes a lot sometimes none. [6-7/10]
Enjoyment:Well, to be honest, most of the laughs came with ecchi. There were a few touching moments to boot too, and it is quite well-rounded entertainment, but leaning to ecchi. [8/10]
Harem: Typical.…

Many criticize the harem genre of anime for its overly formulaic approach and execution. And Ladies vs. Butlers will probably not change the opinions of these critics, since practically every convention common in harem anime is crammed into this show.
The premise behind Ladies vs. Butlers is simple yet predictable. The main character, Hino Akiharu, attends a school for upper-class ladies that is also dedicated to instructing maids and butlers how to function in high-class society. The story basically details Hino interacting with the various girls at the school and the various ecchi situations he gets himself into. The majority of this series is episodic and, in all honesty, serves nothing more than to introduce the female characters and to show ecchi scenes.
Ladies vs. Butlers includes…

I really think that this is an okay show. There really isn't that much of a plot, but the art and sound are very praise worthy. Unfortunately, what worked for Baccano! doesn't really work for this show. By that, i mean that the ending in Baccano blatatly states that there is no ending, thus leaving large chunks of the plot unresolved. This show takes the same route, except they do it in an exremely sloppy manner. Maybe the only reason that i liked it so much is because im a dude that gets some enjoyment out of 12 episodes of pointless nudity and 30 pounds of fanservice, but maybe not. This show could've honestly been a lot worse. I believe that i didn't only come back for more simply because of the fanservice, but maybe because i just wanted to see who would get the guy in the end. (Though…

This series is one of those regular ecchi romace animes added with rich ladies, maids, butlers and a prestigious school that exempts payment of education. In real life, that school would change its policy due to many people that might want to go. The show has its random ecchi moments such as accidental breast grabbing, panty shots and undressings.
In terms of animation, it's not bad. A very fine detailed work of art.
The story is still progressing yet not giving much thus leading to some negative first impressions including episodes that look much of a downhill. In a situation such as Green Green, that story may pick up and give more interest.
The main characters are so far the ones being progressed right now which again may not help the slow pace of the story. But the hilarious antics…
