Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru: Trinkle Stars The Animation (2022)

Protecting Orihime Kasahaya, heiress to a massive corporation, is Hisoka Yūki's one job. The catch is that Orihime attends an elite all-girls school, Saint Ceral Girls' Academy, which means Hisoka has to enroll as a girl himself to stay close. It's a crossdressing bodyguard premise with a school-life backdrop, and the tension comes from Hisoka trying to blend in, earn trust, and keep his real identity buried while navigating the social ecosystem of a prestigious girls' school. This is a two-episode OVA from 2022, based on a visual novel in the Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru series, and it carries the same DNA as its predecessors — the emphasis on character dynamics, the gradual warmth between Hisoka and the students around him, and the low-key identity themes running underneath the lighter surface moments. If you're already familiar with the original Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru or its follow-up Futari no Elder, this picks up that same tone and setting style, just with a new cast and bodyguard twist added in. If you enjoyed Maria†Holic's crossdressing-in-an-all-girls-school setup but wanted something with more warmth and less chaos, this leans closer to that end of the spectrum. It's a short watch, so expectations should be calibrated accordingly — this is character setup and atmosphere more than anything else, with the hentai content layered into that framework.
