I'm a straight male who believes One Room and One Room Second Season are the epitome of great short anime (OK, slight exaggeration but I still love it so much). Seeing how they also made one where all the MCs are Guys, I decided to see what was on the other side. It is completely different from One Room. One season of One Room is divided into 3 non connected parts with characters getting 4 episodes each. With each episode, it is always the main character that interacts with the viewer. I thought it'd be the same with Room Mate but boy was I wrong. All thecharacters share a house and they get to interact with each other and not just the viewer. It's pretty entertaining seeing this interaction. I actually got a few chuckles from it.

Diving in, I already knew who this anime is targetted towards, so I had to keep an open mind. Yes, it was cringey seeing the fanservice after each episode, but if I were a girl I'd totally be ecstatic.

There isn't much of a story or development in Room Mate, but it doesn't need it. This anime isn't made to satiate your thirst for a good story, it's here mostly for a light laugh and some eye candy, and it does it well.

But yeah, after enduring 48 minutes of Male fanservice, I'm just glad I survived it. Also, cheers for first review :3
