About Orenchi no Furo Jijo

Orenchi no Furo Jijo (オレん家のフロ事情) arrives as a comedy anime by Asahi Production (2014), and the premise is easy to summarize. In short: Tatsumi is a high school boy who lives by himself. One day, a devastatingly handsome merman named Wakasa moves into the bathtub in Tatsumi's home.

Next up: Wakasa is a bit self-centered but cute, while Tatsumi is cool but a busybody.

Think of it as a pick for viewers who want something light between heavier series. With 13 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
