Sister Princess - Definition and Overview

A "fan disk", merchandise for Sister Princess 2.

Sister Princess is a popular bishōjo series. It began as a serialized manga in 1999. In 2001, it was turned into a bishōjo game for the PlayStation and TV anime. Sequels to the game were released for the PlayStation and Game Boy Advance.

The premise of Sister Princess is that the protagonist, an ordinary young man, is made to live with 12 lovable "little sisters", each with their own distinct quirks and personality. Both "little sister" characters and the plotline of "being forced to live with beautiful girls" are very common and popular in bishōjo products.

Sister Princess is remarkable for its intensely cute and saccharine atmosphere, taking to an extreme a tendency in Japanese culture. The series can be classified as moé but not technically rorikon since it does not contain pornographic elements.
