Princess Resurrection

This anime is exactly what the name implies,theirs a princess and a resurrection and it seems to revolve a very unlucky boy named Hiro.This boy came to the city to visit his older sister,Sawawa, who has gotten a job as a maid in a old haunted looking mansion on top of the hill.On his way there, he encounters a beautiful blonde girl in a princess outfit.When I say princess outfit I don't mean pink or white with glitter and frills.No all this girl was wearing was a black gothic dress,black gloves,a tiara and an evil grin on her face.

But,even though, she stood out in a bit of a creepy way Hiro thought that she was the most beautiful girl he has ever seen and that's the last thing he saw before being pumbled by a stack of falling steel beams.Next thing he knew he wakes up in a morgue and the only thing going through his mind his that he needs to get to his sister's workplace.When he gets there he encounters the girl he saw again only this time she's fighting...with a pack of werewolves!

When the fighting finally ends she tells Hiro that her name is Hime and that she is the princesss of the monster realm and that he is her undead servant and must protect her at all costs.He doesn't really believe her at first and tries to get out of it but then she tells him that if he doesn't get the magic that brought him back to life from her every couple of days then he'll die again.Also, him being worried for his sister's safety while working for the gothic princess he didn't have much of a choice.

This series goes on as he quite pitifully but faithfully tries to save her from being harmed in any way possible.They battle werevolves,sea creatures,vampires,etc in almost every episode and I love each and every battle scene.But, what I don't understand is why Hiro didn't get any powers while becoming her undead servant you would think he would get something out of this being that he was dragged into her problems.Besides, the fact that he can come back to life whenever she wished, he really didn't get much else.I thought he should have gotten some super speed or something because he was really sucking at protecting her the only real thing he could do was becoming her shield.

Now his sister,Sawawa, really amazes me when it came to how oblivious and calmn she was about everything that happened around her.This girl doesn't really notice anything besides concerning herself with her maid duties.She doesn't notice the boys in town checking her out,the assassins,monsters,blood splatters or claw marks on the walls,the fact that her brother gets beat up to a pulp,nothing!But,notices when Hime hasn't eaten.This is probably why Hime keeps her around in the first place she does her job without getting involved her other affairs.

Speaking of sisters in this story Hime's little sister comes to town trying to kill her.If you don't already know its because all of the siblings in her family are trying to kill each other for the throne.Anyway,later these two gothic sisters form an alliance till their other sibling are taken down.Meanwhile, she has made her own little mansion down the street from her sister with her android servant.Also, Hime's sister seems to have taken a liking to Hiro and wants him to be her"knight in shining armor" and protect her forever,fat chance of that happening.

This group meets some very interesting and dangerous characters that Hiro hopes he never sees again,but we all know he does.This story is an anime and a manga so you can choose one or the other or watch/read both.I thought it was very funny to watch and I love how each girl in the story has made up their own way to indimating Hiro.I also liked how the ending theme song kind of hinted that he will be tormented,humilated and manipulated by these women countless times.Its really fun to watch if you like watching a group of hot supernatural girls kicking monster butt left and right.
