Kenn's Comment: While it begins like a typical harem story, it's still fairly enjoyable. Later on, the story picks up, and it gets a lot better. It's been running for six years now, so there's got to be something to it. It's got a fair bit of fanservice although it's not senseless and overused...although Ikuto's reaction is getting a bit old. He, like Jin (Kannagi), is a pure pure boy.
Summary from A-T Translations:
Ikuto Touhohin just had a last fight with his old man, one that led him to make a rash decision to run away from home. He boards a ship, deciding to take a vacation, but the ship is suddenly hit by a huge storm--one that sends Ikuto overboard! When he regains consciousness, he realizes he is still alive…on some island. An isolated island. An isolated island with nothing but girls. Stranded on an island with only girls, no electricity, gas, radio, television…like he was back in the stone age.
