Princess Jellyfish
Created by Akiko Higashimura
On Fuji TV
A warm, playful comedy about a found family of otaku misfits whose safe space is disrupted and enriched by an unexpected arrival, built on affection rather than conflict.
Amamizukan is an apartment complex where no boys are allowed. Tsukimi, a girl who adores jellyfish, lives there happily with her friends who all have nerdy obsessions of their own. Their peaceful lives gradually start to change when a beautiful woman helps Tsukimi out of a pinch. She stays overnight at the apartments—but it turns out "she" is really a "he".
