The maid Lilith, hired to look after young Yuuri and his family's mansion, seems highly suspicious: she is too good to be true. Every dish she serves turns out to be delicious, the whole residence sparkles after she cleans it, and all the clothing has given off a pleasant scent since she started doing the laundry. Furthermore, her devilishly beautiful eyes only serve to heighten Yuuri's suspicions. Is Lilith perhaps a witch or a sorcerer? Yuuri cannot figure it out. But despite his misgivings, Yuuri has to live with Lilith as he tries to unravel the mystery behind her otherworldly charm. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

When I finished watching this anime, I immediately marked it as completed here on the site as I usually do. One thing I noticed was the average score of this anime is extremely low for what this anime has to offer the viewer. I was outraged, so I went to see the reviews to understand what was the issue that people were seeing in this anime, but I soon understood what was happening after seeing some reviews. A very peculiar pattern is that most of the negative reviews had the indication of "preliminary" while the positive reviews were from people who actually completed the anime. I understandthe anime is not of that incredible production level and has the appearance of being made on a very cheap budget, but that simply does not justify the low average score evaluated by users, (6.58) while I am writing this review. So before I start my real review I want to make it clear that most of the people who didn't recommend this anime are people who probably went through 3 or 4 episodes, fiddling with their cellphone or doing something else, since this anime has a better quality. Saikin proposal is nothing extremely complicated, on the contrary, it is something extremely simple and palatable even for a person who is not used to watching anime. Despite the proposal being simple, the execution of this anime deserves a highlight since it manages to directly give the viewer the feeling he wants to convey in a subtle way, even if nothing is happening at the moment, it gives you exactly the feeling he proposes at the moment. Our protagonist is an innocent child, it's cool to see him develop during the episodes, it's not that boring thing of "the protagonist is there simply for the development of the work to happen." no, it was a work made with love and thought about how it would be placed in each episode, the progression of this anime is a strong point since, on the contrary of animes that are stalled just to hold the viewer for one more episode, this anime is compact, satisfactory to see how things unfold, I haven't watched a work so connected with the viewer for a long time. Before you start watching, I recommend grabbing a coffee or hot chocolate and making yourself comfortable. You will have a great experience watching the course of such an unpretentious story but at the same time so nice to watch. As I mentioned before, the anime has its limitations because of a simple budget, but that doesn't prevent you from having some experience with the anime, on the contrary, it somehow conveys the feeling of being something directly to you. Silver Link already has a precedent of making anime style comfortable for the viewer. Just like Non Non Biyori, they got it right again. They managed to balance the "Slice of Life" with a progression in the story. It's very difficult to balance these two things since if you don't get the measure right, it can either become a boring anime where nothing happens, or it can turn into a chaos of information or things that don't give the viewer time to digest what's happening. Saikin manages to maintain this balance, which is another great success of the Anime, I haven't read the manga yet but I believe that the adaptation was exactly what the screenwriter intended when writing this story. It's hard to make ends meet in this anime industry, where there are big companies spending millions on production, and you're someone who has a great story to watch but can't afford the production costs. I really like it when these smaller production companies manage to do such good work even without so many opportunities. The direction is nothing extremely outstanding in the anime industry, but even so Minato Mirai managed to do something good for the viewer to watch, just like he already did with Otome Game, he brought this experience to the "future" and made another good work. So you can say it's a well-directed anime. If you asked me if this anime is worth watching, I would say yes without thinking twice. This anime is a great way to pass the time, I'm sure you'll like the characters, the way they are introduced in the story and how they are carried through the eleven episodes. The story sustains itself so as not to be boring at all, on the contrary, it encourages you to continue watching. The drama is not that "I'm running out of ideas so we need to put on some drama" stuff. No, the drama makes sense with the story and only adds more to the anime. Give this anime a chance!

Your seasonal bit of feel good fodder which has a feel good vibe to it. Not a bad anime if you're looking for an 11 episode slice of life revolving around a pre teen kid who's innocently ignorant about the other ways he can come off when talking to his maid. It has mild comedy in it if you like the entertaining reactions to comments the MC makes which he isn't fully aware of when he makes them because he's a pre teen kind of sheltered kid with the sub genre being romance which you know there'll never be full on romance because that would justbe plain paedophilia. With the story it doesn't really progress anywhere as it's a slice of life with no end goal but to just be a nice feel good show. The art style is nice that's used and does it's job well when it comes to characters design in the show although it doesn't do that when it comes to objects(not that the objects in the show matter too much). So I'd advise watching this is you're looking for something with mild comedy and a nice feel good feeling it gives you along with the comedy it can give. Although if you're looking for a show that shows progress and development in the storyline and characters then I'd advise to watch something else due to it not being that kind of show.
