The light novel series Rich Girl Caretaker is getting an anime adaptation. Written by Yusaku Sakaishi with illustrations by Sakura Miwabe, the romantic comedy follows a high school boy who becomes the caretaker of a wealthy girl admired at school but helpless in daily life.
Official Announcement:
Published by Hobby Japan under the HJ Bunko label, the series began in 2021, with volume 11 scheduled for release on October 31, 2025. Monogatari Novels has licensed the light novels for English publication and describes the story as follows:
A high school boy, Itsuki Tomonari, gets involved in a kidnapping and ends up taking care of Hinako Konohana, a young lady from one of Japan’s largest conglomerates.
On the surface, Hinako seems to be a brilliant and charming girl, but in reality, she is a lazy girl with no life skills. However, due to family reasons, Hinako has to play the role of the “perfect young lady” at school. Wanting to protect her, Itsuki takes care of her in a very caring manner. Eventually, Hinako begins to fawn on Itsuki with all her might… “Now…if Itsuki isn’t around, I would hate it.”
This is a love story that begins with a cute young lady with a gap that transcends the master-servant relationship.
