Comedy? Yes.
Romance? Heavy.
At the core, this is a story about a tsundere-like rich reclusive girl with a goal to study and become independent so that she doesn't have to live with her ero-writer father but through advances of a kind and handsome man learn to fall in love. She deals with lewd thoughts, expectations build upon her father writing ero and her own wants, all while getting into misunderstandings and inhibited by her own personality.
A lot of blushing, a lot of panic. All in all a short growth story that isn't a waste of your time if you like a story of a tsundere girl with lots of lewd on her mind doing her best. All wrapped in lighthearted comedy.

* Based on an ecchi romantic shounen manga drawn by Kawahara Ren.
When Ao was in kindergarten, she smiled ear-to-ear as she told her classmates how her father (a bestselling erotic author) chose her name: "A as in apple and O as in orgy!" That day still haunts her ten years later as she studies with a single goal in mind: get into an elite university and achieve independence from her father once and for all. She has no youth to misspend and no time to think about boys ... until her classmate, "King Normie" Kijima, approaches her with a shocking confession of love. She tries to lose Kijima, but he just can't take a hint ... and as her mind runs wild with impure thoughts, she realizes her father has totally influenced her!

This is definitely a fan-service anime - and it knows it. An enjoyable watch, even if it's only for the comedy.

Funny, cute, ecchi, a bit romantic and quite awkward.
The characters I liked the most were the father and his assistant which were responsible for the "funny" part of the show. Otherwise the main part was mostly ecchi and awkward. It could have been a nice romance if there wouldn't have been so much fanservice. The character design and some characteristics were very cute at least!
All in all it was a entertaining mix.

This is an ok romcom that follows AO (main female lead) who constantly has perverted thoughts. There are lots of miss-read situations that could be lead to funny moments; however for me it got overused. The father was the best part as his comedy hit the most for me. In the end, if you're ok with 2 people being awkward with each other that most of the times could turn into a perverted situation, give this a try.

My runaway winner for most entertaining anime this season.
At its heart its a well made feel good slice-of-life rom-com. With a FL full of ecchi thoughts, stuffed w/ heavy doses of good lewd comedy, sprinkled w/ well balanced fanservice. The lewd induced jokes are smooth & guarantees a 12 min worth of laughter each week.
Came for the fanservice & stayed for the nice fuzzy rom-com. Fanservice is enough to entertain & not overwhelming. Which brings the spotlight on the cute couple. Strike a nice push pull balance in the relat'nship w/ a steady growth while churning lewd comedy. Damn it had me rooting hard for them. Glad it ended nicely
Chibi otou-san is prbly d only annoyance, but can be quickly forgiven.
And Oh OH oh, oh oh oh... OP music is hecka solid & catchy, brought the singles after 1 ep in.
Overall, Ao-chan balances so well btw romance, comedy & fan service. Really enjoyed myself, 9/10. Sit back, laugh while feeling good at the same time. Highly rec'ed!

This was a fun watch. Shows with ecchi-obsessed boys are common, but ones where the girl (who happens to be the MC) is the one ecchi-obsessed are less common. Add in that the mangaka appears to be a woman, and the result is a strangely compelling mark of quality to what would otherwise feel like a generic template show. The dialog here is oftentimes crisp, just as naughty as it needs to be, and yet... innocent, sincere, and even heart-warming where appropriate. This show's biggest failing is the father character, but he thankfully becomes less prominent after the first few episodes, which leaves more room for the actual important character interactions. With only half-length episodes, there isn't a whole lot of spare time to waste on the unnecessary. Recommended for fans of romcoms, particularly ones with a bit of ecchi to spice things up. Also, though this show is targeted toward a shounen audience, I wouldn't be surprised if a few shoujo out there secretly liked it as well.

Not a bad ecchi romcom overall. Episodes could have been longer and the side characters were seldom explored, but the comedy was very good and the story overall was cute. I also found the immature female protagonist very funny, in the right situations. Fanservice was relatively balanced, which some may appreciate, however in this type of show I would have liked it to be a little wilder. Animation was above average, and I liked the eye design in particular.
A nice half-episode ecchi watch. Recommended for romantic ecchi fans.
