The story in this isn't great. It's just a repetitive sitcom with the same joke being the main character's face gets shoved in one of the women's breasts or groin. That said, it works well as I still find it amusing after 10 episodes. There's some other usual tropes like the nosebleeds and the violent female that can't express her feelings. You're probably just going to watch this for the nudity, in which case you'll likely enjoy it.

An Ecchi That is Not Hot
robinsonaustin-0749017 September 2021
When junior high student Koshi is forced to live on his own after his deadbeat left when the house caught on fire, he finds himself as the dormitory mother for girls.
Mother of the Goddess' Dormitory is serviceable. As can be expected in these kinds of harems, there is a lot of fanservice even when there are moments it leans heavily on willing suspicion of disbelief. Aside from this, the show is pretty bland and repetitive.
The characters are fine. Kosi starts off trying to be the responsible caretaker of the women's dorm and getting easily flustered by the girls' lewdness. He does express empathy and we do get him feeling conflicted due to his fears of losing his new home if he were to act on his feelings for the girls, Atena in particular, but he is kind of boring as the main lead. It got to the point where I would forget his name so I'd have to resort to looking it up.
Atena is also pretty mediocre. She is established as the most normal out of the gang of girls beside her fear of men causing her to have excessive nosebleeds. The more she interacts and gets to know Koshi, much like him, she began to have conflicting thoughts primarily whether she'd view him as a brother or something else entirely. Their chemistry is fine for what it is. Though that is largely coming off them having a sibling-like relationship; keep in mind that Koshi is 12-years-old whereas Atena is around 19 years old a seven-year difference. No thank you.
As for the other girls, they are mostly one-note: Kiriya is a tomboyish martial artist who was raised in a dojo. She has the habit of punching stuff whenever she read romantic shonen manga.
Mineru is the stereotypical mad scientist who experiments around often resulting in an explosion or any other unsanitary conditions. She is flirty and lacks common decency.
Frey or Fley is obsessed with cosplaying and designing outfits to the point of forcibly dressing people up without their approval. She does have a meaningful moment with Koshi where she helped him get an understanding of his feelings.
By far my favorite is Serene, an odd young woman who asserts that she is an alien who gets her powers from the moon. Her first appearance has her asking Koshi to become her servant in return for using her lunar technology to clean up a mess Kiriya caused. She had an interesting little side story where she expressed hesitation with going to the beach with Koshi and the girls. Considering that she had apparently lived in the dormitory longer than the others, maybe there is a good reason why the show is called Mother of the Goddess' Dormitory.
Animation, once again, is serviceable. Given its adherence to fan service, the animation is top-notch in that regard meaning that, relatively speaking, it is drawn well, but there seems to be something horribly wrong in how it is conveyed. It's lackluster: the girls do sexy stuff, but there is no real appeal there namely due to the rest of the anime being boring and the characters being too flat and underwhelming. But, taking out that aspect, the show is pretty forgettable and doesn't have a strong draw to it. But it isn't bad, just mediocre.

Light-hearted funny Anime series...
paul_haakonsen5 August 2023
As I stumbled upon this 2021 Anime series titled "Megami-Ryou No Ryoubo-Kun" (aka "Mother of the Goddess' Dormitory") here in 2023, I had never actually heard about it. So I had no idea what to expect here. But the synopsis for the series sounded like it could be a fun watch, and thus I opted to sit down and give it a chance.
The storyline throughout the 10 episodes is actually entertaining. Each episode is a stand-alone episode, so you can take your time sitting through the episodes individually. The contents of the script is good, with a good amount of humor and light-hearted awkward things happening to Nagumo Koushi, the main character of the series.
The dialogue in the series is good, because it is done with a good amount of humor to it. And it is not something that takes itself overly serious, and that works well in favor of "Megami-Ryou No Ryoubo-Kun". Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with the voice acting talents in the Anime, but they brought life to their characters in good ways. I had gotten my hands on a version with the original Japanese language, which was a blessing. I abhor English dubbed Anime, as most of it is done questionable.
The character gallery in "Megami-Ryou No Ryoubo-Kun" is fairly good. There is an overwhelming tendency of the main female characters being very well-endowed, but it adds to the overall charm of the series in a way. The characters are well-rounded, no pun intended, and have unique and distinct characteristics and personalities.
The art style used in "Megami-Ryou No Ryoubo-Kun" was good. Keep in mind that there is a fair amount of topless nudity throughout the 10 episodes. But taking the hilarious situations that Nagumo Koushi finds himself in into consideration and mixing in the topless nudity, it is actually a fun, light-hearted romantic comedy narrative, and it works nicely. The animation in "Megami-Ryou No Ryoubo-Kun" is good and fluid, which makes the characters all the more alive and likable.
If you enjoy a light-hearted comedy Anime for a semi-mature audience, then give "Megami-Ryou No Ryoubo-Kun" a chance.
My rating of "Megami-Ryou No Ryoubo-Kun" lands on a six out of ten stars.
