Tsukasa Atsumi is a salaryman who leads an ordinary, solitary life. On his way back from work one evening, he is saved from a demon attack by a mysterious woman in a ninja outfit. Introducing herself as Shizuri Ideura, she claims that demons target people like Tsukasa, who have Samurai Blood in their veins, and that her kind have been protecting them from the shadows.
Told by Shizuri that the attacks are going to become more frequent, Tsukasa makes a deal to provide her with housing in exchange for his safety. To his surprise, he quickly finds out that Shizuri is a shut-in who loves to play video games whenever she is not busy with her ninja duties. As the two spend more time together, Tsukasa grows to appreciate Shizuri's company—and his feelings just might be mutual.

This is a very decent and alright casual comedy anime that is unfortunately under-rated(relatively) because the beginning was just generic bad and probably failed 3episode rule for most. If Salad bowl of Eccentrics was the Hinamatsuri of it's season, then NEET Kunoichi is the Salad bowl of it's season. There are many similarities in characters and premise. It takes a considerable number of episodes to introduce all of the cast, which also might have worked against the show. But once the cast gets established it becomes pretty good enjoyable comedy. The characters get well defined early and shorts turn into enjoyable gag comedy. Not surehow to put it in English, it's a women centric show? As in the "main" MC is the FMC, the other girls are the next in focus. The male "MC" and another supporting male character seldom appears and pretty mob-like. It's not a bad thing, just setting your expectations.
It is slightly ecchi, but below average number of fanservice than in your random anime. Most places had tagged this show as ecchi initially which would be wrong in this regard. Some might also dislike a biologically male but female-identifying character being a stalking creep on female characters. It's also not a harem, triangle, polygon or polycule, even though most cover/PVs might imply that.
The production is quite a bit hit or miss. The face caricatures are pretty well done, the narrator that pops up occasionally is also pretty funny. Rest of the elements of production is subpar, but not actively(lazily) bad, just likely budget constraints. I would say watch 6 or so episodes and judge
This is officially 24x 12min episodes but was broadcasted two at a time. The stories are majorly separate shorts with only one or two pairs being full fledged connected 24min episodes. It's easily better than the isekai slops this season, two of which couldn't even make their protagonists look different(Secret shopper and Salaryman).

Ultimately NEET Ninja is a failed Jack of All Trades that uses most of the tropes & stereotypes in the medium. It lacks story, cohesion & basic formatting to the point some episodes are a jumbled blob full of conflicting tones, genres & ideas. It's another standard 'turn your brain off' perverted anime where it never excels at anything other than Voice Acting & at times Comedy. It lacks any depth or explanation to its world or characters & the only redeemable portions of the show are thanks to the voice actors, referential gags and a number of interactions between side characters, who themselves arestereotypes & references.
The side characters & their antics were the only reason I stayed around, as they provided consistent entertainment. Sadly, the side characters only start appearing after ep2 which means you're stuck with a rather intolerable duo for 24 minutes before things start to get arguably entertaining. That’s not to say the jokes don’t get old or repetitive, as they definitely do but certain characters leave & return long enough for the jokes to land again. I should also note that there are jokes about gender dysphoria, consent & Japanese tropes e.g. low character ages. This is another reason why my score is low, even if it's a comedy, it's still disgusting.
Depending on where you watch the show, it has either 24, 12 minute episodes or 12, 24 minute episodes, with the later using a jarring structure of featuring the OP & ED’s multiple times in a single episode. It’s weird...
I do not recommend watching this in its entirety HOWEVER if you can find highlights of the characters on media sharing sites, you may experience the best parts of the Anime.

Highlights Unique Premise: The blend of ninjas, NEET culture, and romantic comedy is certainly distinct and provides a fresh take on the slice-of-life genre. Gag-Oriented Humor: The show leans heavily into wacky and madcap slapstick comedy, with jokes generally landing well for fans of that style. Charming Lead Kunoichi: Shizuri's blend of powerful ninja skills and her utterly relatable otaku habits makes her a charming and often funny character. Her gradual development of feelings for Tsukasa is also a key part of the appeal. Fanservice: The series features fanservice, with many female characterswearing form-fitting outfits. While it generally avoids explicit nudity, there's definitely a lewd element to some of the humor.
Points to Consider
Animation Quality: Reviewers have noted that the animation can feel flat and basic, serving the comedic timing but not standing out visually. Subtle character expressions are often lacking.
Problematic Humor: One notable criticism is the character of Momochi, an otonoko (male character who cross-dresses and presents as female) who is often portrayed with problematic and potentially transphobic humor, playing into sexual deviance and masochism for laughs. This aspect can make the show difficult to recommend without significant caveats.
Pacing and Format: The anime often divides episodes into two short segments, which can sometimes feel disjointed. Its roots as a web manga are evident in its quick jump into the premise and gag-based nature.
Tsukasa's Passivity: Tsukasa, while kind, is often a very passive protagonist, primarily serving as a foil for the more active and eccentric kunoichi.
Overall Impression
"I'm Living with an Otaku NEET Kunoichi!?" is a silly and often entertaining romantic comedy that delivers on its unique concept. It's best enjoyed by viewers who appreciate lighthearted humor, fanservice, and absurd situations, and who are willing to overlook some of its production limitations and potentially problematic comedic elements. If you're looking for a deep narrative or complex character development, this might not be the anime for you, but for a fun, brain-off watch, it can hit the spot.

There were a number of scenes in this anime that would have been really moving if they'd actually bother to establish the main relationship but everything feels so rushed. It's like they started the show and we ended up skipping five episodes. For what it is it's fine. There were some funny bits, the way the main girl had an obvious gambling addiction to loot boxes kinda rubbed me the wrong way with how cutesy they made it but I guess I didn't mind that much, at least not to the point that I'd stop watching or anything. If you're just looking for something silly,this is pretty good.
