Manabi Straight! main image

Alternate titles: Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight!

TV (12 eps) | 2007 | Winter 2008 | ufotable

Saio Private High School has a long tradition of quality education; however, like many with other schools in this not to far away future its enrollment is falling and its tradition is failing. School is no longer a necessity in the path to quality employment and for that reason, many teenagers are choosing to skip it entirely; this is not the case with the newly transferred Manabi. She may be a whirlwind of humor and vision with her motto of go straight forward, but Manabi has the drive to bring the students of this small school both a new understanding of its purpose, and possibly a new joy in life.

Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru

There’s no denying that Mizuhu is beautiful. Normally that might be a bit of a disadvantage seeing as he is an average sort of boy who enjoys sports and games. However, his beloved grandfather has just passed away, and the will includes a strange request; his grandfather wants him to become closer to his mother's memory by attending the same all-girls academy she did for a semester. Obviously he can't hide his gender from the teachers of the school; so he will need their approval, but he also can't expose his gender in front of his fellow students. With the help of his child-hood friend Mariya, his own natural beauty, and just a little bit of luck, Mariya may just be able to fool his fellow students! Considering the turn of events, there may be more to his grandfather's dying request than meets the eye...
