Yoshitaka Nakabayashi, a 14-year-old millionaire who got this huge inheritance after his parents died in an accident, found himself needed to be taken care of and tried to hire live-in maids to do the job. Two runaway girls, Izumi Sawatari and her younger sister Mitsuki, stumped into Nakabayashi’s mansion and got hired by Yoshitaka immediately, for Yoshitaka is not only a rich boy but also a pervert with uniform fetishes, who wants to be addressed as goshujin-sama (master). Having nowhere else to settle down along with Mitsuki’s pet alligator Pochi, Izumi accepted the job reluctantly.

Plot:
A majority of the episodes in He is My Master follows a simple formulaic method to its madness. Izumi is not happy with her life, yells at Yoshitaka about it, breaks something, and a contest happens which more stuff breaks and Yoshitaka gets violently beaten up. This also provides a lot of the humor in the series. While this is funny at times, it does get old after a while. In the latter half of the series, there is a sense of plot that comes about however this feels like it was tacked on just to have a plot. The plot that does come about in the last half of the series does go somewhere it would be nice for it to have been all the way through the series and not just in the last half.
If there is one thing that sets He is My Master apart from other shows in this genre is the male lead. In a major of harem or harem like comedies, the male lead is usually passive, likeable, and is in some ways a doormat. Not the male lead for this show. Yoshitaka is aggressive, perverted, makes fan service style, and has no friends. He is not afraid to spy on the girl while they are getting baths, or above sexually harassing his live in maids. While this is a nice change of pace from what is expected in these types of show, Yoshitaka is unlikeable as a character.
