Lovepical-Poppy!

Lovepical-Poppy! is a comedic visual novel about Yaotome Tetsuya, who becomes the live-in manager of an all-girls dormitory after his apartment burns down, leaving him homeless and unemployed. His younger sister, Yaotome Suzuka, has secured a room at Hoshikuzu Academy’s dormitory, and Tetsuya takes a job there that provides room, board and pay. The protagonist's name can be changed.

Life at the dormitory

Tetsuya looks after the residents by cooking meals and tending to their daily needs. He also works at the dormitory’s attached crepe café, located on the first floor to give the girls real-world experience. There, he shares the sweet and sour moments of working life with them, while they wear cute uniforms. His kindness earns a place in the heroines’ hearts, and living together brings their relationships closer.

The residents

The girls include a full-bodied woman who seems to know Tetsuya’s past, his socially awkward younger sister, a narcissist who seeks others’ approval and a petite dorm president who hides a desire to depend on someone. The group also includes a pure-hearted, carefree gyaru who wears her heart on her sleeve and a mature older woman who has seen it all.
