About Good Luck! Ninomiya-kun

Here is what Good Luck! Ninomiya-kun (Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun) is about, retold in plain terms: a fantasy, comedy and ecchi anime by AIC Spirits (2007). What the story covers: Shungo Ninomiya is just an average, run-of-the-mill high school student who lives at home with his older sister Ryoko—at least when she's not away doing her job as a mercenary. However, Shungo's life ceases to be normal the moment a cute girl named Mayu Tsukimura descends into the middle of his school's campus in a military-grade helicopter.

From there, it turns out Ryoko sent this girl, along with her older brother Mikihiro, to live at the Ninomiya household. The newly-arrived siblings are a little special: Mayu is, in fact, a succubus and her brother, an incubus! As if the circumstances are not problematic enough, Mayu is crippled with androphobia—the fear of men—and it's up to Shungo to help her overcome this at the behest of his sister.

As a fantasy title, world-building, magic systems and creature design set the tone. It will appeal most to fans of magic, kingdoms and invented worlds.
