Overview: What is Please Put Them On, Takamine-san!?#
If you are looking for a blend of school-life romance and absurdist comedy, Please Put Them On, Takamine-san! (also known as Haite Kudasai, Takamine-san) is a title that demands attention. The story follows Koushi Shirota, a student who finds himself in an unexpected arrangement with the beautiful and elite student council president, Takane Takamine.
After a compromising encounter, Shirota is forced to serve as Takamine’s “walking closet,” assisting her as she changes underwear throughout the day. While the premise is rooted in risqué comedy, there is a supernatural twist: Takamine’s act of stripping is actually the catalyst for her time-bending powers.
If you’re interested in diving into this world, you can watch the anime on Prime Video (which collaborates with Crunchyroll in several regions).
Is the Anime Really Finished?#
For those wondering if they can get a complete story from the anime alone, it is important to note that Please Put Them On, Takamine-san! is an adaptation of a manga that began serialization in early 2019. The anime is scheduled to debut on April 2, 2025.
Because the source material predates the anime by several years, viewers who watch only the anime may find themselves wanting more. To get the full experience and ensure you see the complete narrative arc, you will likely need to continue with the original manga. You can buy the manga here to stay ahead of the plot.
Who Is This Anime For?#
This series is best suited for audiences who enjoy “risqué comedy” and romance. It leans heavily into its provocative premise but balances it with the dynamic between the high-status Takamine and the “nobody” Shirota. The appeal lies in the tension between their relationship and the mystery of Takamine’s time-bending abilities.
If you enjoy these kinds of niche romantic comedies, you might also want to collect some related merchandise to show your support for the series.
