I wish I could use this picture:

But there's no damned way I can.

That's from episode 3. Most of the girls in the harem in this show are bizarre, but this one may be the worst. She's got this little stylized toy horse which can speak. Not just to her, as far as I can tell; everyone can hear it. (I'm not totally sure about that. I'm going through it without subtitles and with the sound turned off.)

Anyway, in episode 3 she spends fully six and a half minutes of air time in the bath (naked, of course), alone except for the toy horse, talking to the horse and being angsty about the male lead. She's got a very nice bod.

The horse is floating on the back of the rubber duck.

But they all have nice bods; every one of them is at least a C-cup. In ep 2 there was a bath scene with all five of them, so there isn't any mystery about it. (And that nude scene ran two minutes.) They're all way above normal for Japan, even though all but one of them is supposedly Japanese.

This show should have been named "Please take your clothes off for me." Good Lord.

UPDATE: Or maybe "Please take a bath for me." Ep 4 begins with the blonde German taking a bath. That scene runs six minutes.

Damnit, I can't find pictures I can use in nude sequences!

UPDATE: OK, it looks like episodes 3 and 4 are "girl of the week" episodes, except that they're two-girls-each-week. Ep 3 was the archer girl and the katana girl. Ep 4 is the German girl (she fights with a saber) and the one who uses the naginata. And her half isn't bath scenes. That takes care of everyone except the battle-axe childhood friend, and I bet she doesn't get one.

UPDATE: The show teaser before the OP each time has been about the archer girl trying to seduce the male lead. It's an old joke and getting older by the episode.

For crying out loud, this show really is trash. If I don't hit a beach episode soon, I'm gonna give up on it. I've already got 39 candidates; I could stop any time.

UPDATE:

Left to right: archer, naginata, saber, katana.

UPDATE: Ep 5 is yet another girl-of-the-week. Whole episode, and she's not part of the harem, as such. Apparently there's an inner harem (who live in the same dorm as him and do nude scenes) and an outer harem (with this girl, and who knows how many more).

The lead in this is a classic Marty Stu. All the girls want him; all the guys admire him. But what else do you expect from the player avatar in an eroge? (Which is where this began.)

Well, all the girls except one (the battleaxe) and she's the one he wants. Sheesh.

UPDATE: Ep 6 was a festival episode, but nearly useless for my purposes. Ep 7 is another angst-of-the-week episode, and this time it is the battleaxe.

UPDATE: End of ep 10. The show finally got serious about two episodes back, and there's been a lot of fighting. I'm getting shots from it; 60 candidates now.

One thing that's kind of a twist: Our Hero is easily the worst fighter among the characters in the show, and he keeps getting captured by the bad guys, let alone nearly dying once. "Doofus in distress"; it's a change from "damsel in distress". Not necessarily a pleasant change, mind...

The battleaxe is up into DBZ territory in terms of power and combat skill, including super speed, ki blasts, and several other things. She could probably beat Yamucha as he was when the Saiyajins landed on Earth. (Admittedly a low standard.)

UPDATE: OK, I think they aren't being totally serious. In the final battle, Our Hero ends up piloting a mech, and he's controlling it with a game pad.

Five more minutes to go in the last episode, and I have 76 candidates  now.
