It is the present day. Jun Sakurada is a somewhat troubled boy who abandoned school, and seems to be an orphan. To make a living, he decides to test products of companies, and providing them with opinions in written form as it seems. His sister Nori however seems to have a more normal life. Something happened along the way, and Jun tries to distance himself from her, wants to be left alone. He spends most of the time in his room in front of his computer, surfing the web or playing games.

However, one day he receives a somewhat strange piece of letter that arrives with one of the boxes with products he is supposed to try out. It only asks a question: “Will you wind? Yes / No”. He decides to circle “Yes”. He then finds a somewhat strange box. Intrigued, he opens it – to find a beautiful doll inside, with a key. Apparently to wind the doll up. He does so… and that’s where the life of Jun and Nori takes a big turn.
The doll he winded up introduces herself as Shinku, one of the Rozen Maidens. Made by a mysterious doll maker, only known by the name of Rozen, a long time ago in an attempt to compensate for a loss he experienced. It doesn’t take too long for the other dolls to show up at his doorstep, and soon enough Jun is increasingly annoyed about talking dolls in his house with – seemingly – childlike minds.
However the rabbit hole goes a bit deeper than just talking dolls who fight each other all the time in a desperate attempt to get sweets. Jun soon learns about Suigintou and her plans, and decides to help the dolls at all costs.
Each of the Rozen Maidens appear to have a mystical power of sorts, that can be useful in one way or another – mostly though to serve or help their “servant”, which Jun is often referred to as by Shinku – the first one to arrive in his house.
Brimming with unparalleled comedy and humor that will make you laugh out loud with eyes wide open, the show is most certainly funny and entertaining. It has incredible scenarios and scene designs, making you watch in awe. The show is deep and leaves a message behind for all of us, making it definitely a very special anime event which you should not miss out on!
