The main character, Yoshizumi Yuya, was being pressured into paying off the debt left by his parents who had fled abroad. It was his classmate, Hitotsuba Kaede, chosen as the cutest schoolgirl in Japan, who saved him from this crisis of life and death. However, there was a catch. The condition required to fulfill in return for taking over his debt was — “In return for the loan, you have – to live with me.”

Read the full take

Ryoushin no Shakkin wo Katagawari Shite Morau Jouken wa Nihonichi Kawaii Joshikousei to Issho ni Kurasu Koto deshita starts with pressure and a surprising rescue. A student whose parents have fled abroad, leaving debts behind, is cornered by creditors until a classmate steps in. His condition for covering the debt is an unusual one: the two must live together. The premise is clearly comic, and the lopsided deal sets up the romance.The series' appeal is its warm, light rhythm. The forced cohabitation gives the leads plenty of awkward scenes, and the school setting keeps the comedy grounded. The tone stays playful even when the stakes are real.The weaknesses are the ecchi-tinged humour, which can sit awkwardly beside the warmer moments, and a premise that relies on contrivance. Readers who enjoy quick, easy romcoms with a comic hook will find a diverting read. Those wanting a grounded romance may find it too convenient, though the leads are easy to root for.
