This is a longer version of a review I posted at Crunchyroll sometime around October 2014. Yes, longer. Pretty bad, huh. I have no idea at this point how many hours of my life I've dissolved into this thing by now.
Orenchi no Furo Jijo (The Circumstances in My Home's Bathtub) is a series of anime shorts that can be summed up as concerning the everyday goings on and possible bromance of a teenage boy and a merman living pretty much alone in a huge house that aforementioned young man is house-sitting (for invisible parents/relatives). A merman. A ditzy, demanding, freeloading merman who has taken up permanent residence in the young man's bathtub after being (mistakenly) rescued, who proceeds to drive the young man's water bill up into the stratosphere and invite over all of his equally moist friends without permission. As the saying goes, "Hilarity ensues."
