Genre: Romantic comedy
Score: OK
Rating: PG for underwear

Nayu has a deep, almost obsessive interest in underwear – but unlike most teenagers, it’s not the contents she’s interested in but the clothing itself. She founds an Underwear Appreciation Society to spread the word of how important good underwear is to a growing girl.

It’s hard to be certain whether the market for this series is dirty old men – in which case it’s actually quite tame compared the animated offerings of recent years – or young girls themselves. It certainly does take time to educate the viewer about the ways of underwear, and how the right choice can affect a girl’s health.

In case you’re wondering, male underwear doesn’t get a mention. There is a male member of the club, but his role is basically to blush and be kicked out whenever they’re doing… any club activity at all.
