Plot:

Based on a shounen manga by Yasuda Suzuhito serialised in Shounen Sirius.

Akina, Hime, Kotoha, and Ao are four members of the Hiizumi Seikatsu Soudan Jimusho (Hiizumi’s Everyday-life Consultation Office), which, in addition to helping kindergarteners deal with tough times, strives to preserve the peace of their little town, Sakurashin, by hunting down the troublemakers who dare threaten it.

Hime is a superheroine. Ao can read minds. Kotoha can conjure up anything with the right word. And Akina…well, he’s just a regular guy, surrounded by three supergirls! Together, they protect the town of Sakurashin. But that’s not easy, as the town faces demon dogs and other supernatural threats! -AniDB

The story revolves around a quartet of teenaged heroes: A super-strong girl named Hime, a mind reader named Ao, a conjurer named Kotoha and an ordinary, powerless boy named Akina. The three girls and Akina protect the city of Sakurashin from supernatural threats. -ANN

Ohma is a city in which monsters live. In this city, there are two kinds of people; normal people, and those who possess monstrous powers. However, many people think of monsters as a different existence, and tend to persecute them. Therefore, monsters usually hide their true nature, living secretly.
To solve this problem, the grandfather of the protagonist, Akina, and his friend bred a cherry tree called “Nanago”. It had the special power to stabilize the power of monsters. This is the origin of Ohma; the city protected by Nanago. Ohma was the one and only city managed by monsters, and in this city people and monsters have been living together. However this situation changed dramatically two years ago…-AnFO

Comment:
After watch the show, I would say that this one is Not bad. Reminds me of Rental Magica. Another Youkai Show for this season. Last summer we got Natsume Yuujinchou, and now we got Yozakura Quartet. The animation quality is fine, Character designs are good too. Storyline is similar to ordinary youkai show, Eradicate and Protect the City. Unique ability from each character came up with it. Things that made me interesting that this one came from NOMAD, who produced mai Rozen Maiden and sola. So I expect this one will be a good show.

Gotta love the soundtrack. And oh.. mai Rie Tanaka is here too. :3
Overall Score: 4.2/5
