Code: Realize ~Guardians of Rebirth~

I was supposed to finish this in 2017 but got too busy and here we are.

Also quickly sharing my Biases.
I love silly reverse harems... as long as the main character has a name and they are definitely going for one route i'm happy.

This show meets all those criteria.

We follow Cardia, a mysterious girl who has an odd poison coursign through her body. anything she touches with her bare skin melts. Luckily she has clothing and certain items that negate this problem but it does mean she is forced to live in isolation. That is until Chivalrous thief Arsene Lupin come and steals her away.

We learn that she is the daughter of a famous and somewhat hated scientist. a man who created an item of infinite energy... it also happens to be whats keeping Cardia alive... as well as what make her  impossible to touch. Arsene, originally stealing her for a selfish reason, befriends her and decides to help her get rid of that natsy poison.
How? well with his house full of pretty boys all with referential names. like Saint-Germain, Victor Frankenstein, Impey Barbicane, Abraham Van Helsing and even Delacriox II.
These overly designed pretty boys all have special talents and work together to gather more info on Cardia's father as well as leaning about how this may be able more then the fate of one girl.

It's corny, it's stilly it's over the top and I loved every minute, I want to get the game and see the other endings.

Also how can you hate a show with a character named Herlock Sholmes... you can't... you just can't.

Needless to say... if you hate reverse harems then yeah this show will not change your mind (though it's seriously not even a big part of the show... the show is about cardia and just happens to have some hot guys to pick from)

If you hate shows where the characters have ridiculous over the top costuming when they are trying to blend in.... then watch something else.
However if all that sounds like a fun time I seriously believe you will enjoy this show. The art is lovely, the music is enjoyable and above all I really enjoyed the story. It's corny and predictable but it's also fun and sweet and sad when it needs to be.
Would it have made my top 10 list had I finished it on time? No... but it would have been an honourable mention cause this show was just so enjoyable.

You can watch it all on Chrunchyroll
