Production
editPrior to creating the series, Onimai's author, Nekotofu, was a fan of the "gender bender" genre of anime and manga that included such works as Ranma ½, Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl, and Idol Pretender .[5] As such, Nekotofu had harbored a longtime interest in creating his own such series, and was inspired to do so after seeing Your Name.[6][7] He was also motivated by the positive response to a doujinshi he had created which also featured similar gender-bending elements. Nekotofu began self-publishing Onimai on Pixiv in January 2017, and later on Niconico Seiga, where it became significantly more popular.[5] In April 2019, the manga began serialization in Ichijinsha's Monthly Comic Rex magazine.[1][8] Nekotofu continues to self-publish the series online and produce doujinshi with permission from Ichijinsha.[5]

Reception
editAccolades
editOnimai: I'm Now Your Sister! ranked fifth in Da Vinci's Next Manga Award 2018 in the web manga category in August 2018,[37] and ranked ninth in Web Manga Overall Election 2019 in October 2019.[38] The manga also ranked third in AnimeJapan's Manga We Want to See Animated Ranking in 2020,[39] and ranked seventh in 2021.[40]
Critical reception
editThe series received positive reviews and was ranked by viewers in Japan as the top-rated TV anime of the Winter 2023 season on both Niconico and anime ranking website Anikore.jp.[41][42] One Japanese-language reviewer, writing for 4Gamer.net, echoed positive sentiments regarding its music and art style.[43] Shoki Ota, writing for KAI-YOU , said the series was remarkable for its meticulous depiction of everyday life, and said, "While it might not be for everyone due to its gender swap themes, it feels like a condensed work amid the recent 'anime festival', making it a must-see this season".[44]
In early English-language coverage of the series, the critical response to Onimai's first few episodes were mixed[45][46][47] despite the high user ratings.[48] Some reviewers criticized the first episode's premise and lolicon themes, and perceived incestuous overtones, while praising the animation and music, which was near-universally deemed to be of exceptional quality.[45][49][47] Rebecca Silverman was softer in her criticisms, describing the fan service as "relatively toned down" but stated that the narrative premise was too "mean" for her to enjoy and squandering its potential.[45]
Kim Morrissy, reviewing the anime for Anime News Network, was more positive, saying "Onimai is the best anime of the season."[47] Morrissy strongly praised the narrative, humor, art, and animation production, particularly the work of series director Shingo Fujii, who previously worked on Precure.[47][50][51] They also characterized the story as broadly relatable for its perceived theme of growing to accept significant personal changes. [47] Sakugablog also mentioned Onimai multiple times in their Sakugabooru Animation Awards 2023 for Best Show, Best Animation Design, and other categories but did not give it any awards.[52]
Popularity
editIn February 2023, fans of Onimai sent numerous gifts to the staff of Studio Bind, the production studio of the anime, which series director Shingo Fujii posted photos of in a tweet voicing thanks for the support.[53][54]
