Introduction:-

Youto Yokodera wants to be seen in a way different from most men: as a pervert. However, his lewd actions are often misinterpreted as good intentions, and people cannot see his true nature. Upon hearing rumors of a cat statue that can banish an unwanted trait, he searches for it and prays for his façade to be removed. But each wish comes at a price: those unwelcomed traits are transferred to someone else who desires them!

After realizing that vocalizing his dirty thoughts is not the best thing, Youto decides to regain his lost traits by seeking out the person who received them. Unfortunately, he was not alone in praying to the cat statue, and now he must not only fix his life, but the lives of others as well.

Plot/Summary :-

Yōto Yokodera is a second-year high school student who is arguably the biggest pervert at school. His problem is that he is not good at showing his real emotions. One day, his equally perverted best friend completely transforms and gets rid of his "impure thoughts"; a feat he attributes to the power of the statue of the "Stony Cat". As the rumors suggest, by wishing upon the statue and giving it an offering, one can wish to remove a personality trait from themselves that one does not wish to have anymore. However, this will remove the unwanted trait and give it to someone who does need it.

Quotes :-

“A hilarious love story between an emotionless girl and a pervert boy!”

“The anime is known for its romantic comedy elements and rather heavy and emotional back-stories.”

Story :-

Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko (referred to as HenNeko henceforth) is a romantic comedy that knows its own strengths. Rather than focusing solely on panties, cleavage and harem tropes (oh, there's still plenty of that), it delivers a genuinely refreshing experience that cleverly combines its moe appeal with a strong cast of characters.

The story follows Yokodera Youto and his hidden perversions. Hidden, of course, as joining the track club solely to gape at girls is not considered socially acceptable behavior. He conceals these thoughts under a facade, acting in part as the average highschooler so that his intentions are not misunderstood. But eventually, as just about any teenager would, he grows tired of behaving like somebody that he is not. He decides to visit a purportedly wish-granting statue to ask that he can simply be himself, and in doing so entangles himself with the fate of another: Tsukiko, who instead wishes to conceal her emotions.

Immediately, you will probably find yourself thinking how silly this sounds. And you would not be wrong-- it is very much silly. The entire notion that a cat statue can somehow grant wishes (and just about any wish, really) is supremely contrived and difficult to accept. But HenNeko seldom takes this aspect seriously. There are still the occasional moments of melodrama here and there marring the overall experience, but provided you are not looking for anything more than some lighthearted fun, it is easy enough to tolerate the lacklustre storytelling. Perhaps not forgive, though.

The biggest problem with the story is not necessarily that it is poorly written or abundant with plotholes, but that it relies solely on the cat statue to get anywhere. Characters don't resolve issues or develop on their own-- the statue does it for them. If it's time for some drama, hey, why not have a character wish for something inconvenient? And they do. Again and again. It becomes entirely predictable by the end. How is the audience supposed to empathize with a story that feels so artificial, so reliant upon a single plot device? It is almost too bad that a wish-granting statue doesn't exist in the real world; it could have been used to wish away the show's own issues.
We’ve all seen these pervert – or ” hentai” – characters in anime before. There’s nothing really new about that. But even so, this anime makes the pervert character new and refreshing somehow. It may be because of the rather unique heroine of this series, or it may be because this anime is just awesome in it’s own right! Let’s get to the bottom of this mystery by reviewing this rather cute and unique anime series!

Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko. revolves around Yokodera Youto, a seamlessly harmful pervert high school student. He has a problem that he cannot express his emotions clearly. One day, his friend tells him about the “warawanai neko”  statue at the top of a hill, telling him that by wishing upon the statue and giving it an offering, the statue is able to remove a personality trait from a person and give it to someone else who is need of that trait. As Yokodera makes his offering, he stumbles upon a girl, Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, who is making a wish to the statue to make herself more like an adult and to not show her emotions so easily. Tsukiko ends up taking on the trait that Yokodera wished to get rid of, but ends up being completely emotionless. Feeling responsible, Yokodera promises to help Tsukiko get her emotions back from whoever it went to.

Conclusion :-

Overall, this anime was something familiar and yet unique at the same time. Familiar in a fact that this is another romantic comedy/ecchi anime about boy-meets-girl, and unique in the fact that the character development and the mix between the rather happy scenes and the rather dark and emotional back-stories of different characters is intertwined so neatly together that it almost seems familiar. By watching this anime, you’ll be treats to different emotions, making this anime seem more full-on then it’s supposed to be. If you want something nice, or full of emotion, then this anime is for you.

Recommendation :-

Of course -,  Its an Harem  anime.

My rcommendation is 9/10.

I strongly recommend it for Harem  lover.
