Shuffle! starts off laying the groundwork for a run of the mill harem romcom. The average guy, his childhood friend, his school life etc. Then who should transfer to his high school, but two beautiful girls who both want the poor guy as a husband. Furthermore, one is the princess of heaven, the other the princess of the demon world (could this turn out to be Legend of the Overfiend lite?). Fanservice and hijinks follow as several more females enter the picture. I have to admit, for all the relentless cliche's,(although its overfiendesque supernatural bent is a nice touch ) Shuffle! has its moments, and is fine, brainless entertainment, for the time being anyway. I'll have to see if it improves or self-destructs in the next volume(S).
