''Fairy Ranmaru'' (the full title in Japanese being ''Fairy Ranmaru: Anata no Kokoro Otasuke Shimasu'') is a 2021 magical boy anime.

The anime follows five men that work on Bar F, a bar that heals the heart of its clients. Secretly, the five are members of noble fairy clans, recruited to go to Earth and collect "attachment" from people suffering from heartbreak.

The anime started on April 8th of 2021 as part of the Spring Season animes.

* ArtShift: The ED is made on a different art style more influenced by paintings and richer in detail.
* TheCasanova: Takara. He's with a new woman every episode and is shown to be sexually active with the women he dates, despite one of the fairy rules forbidding it.
* ClothingDamage: The final shot of the ED shows the main characters in their transformed outfits now sporting a lot of them ripped off and showing torso, legs, chest, and even a bit of crotch.
* {{Fanservice}}: A lot. Characters' outfits are pretty much on the "skimpy battle outfit" subcategory, and both the OP and ED lean into it. The ED goes particularly hard on it, showing all the male characters tied up in shibari-like set-ups and naked. The transformation sequence themselves lean hard into fanservice territory.
* FemaleGaze: The transformation sequences go '''hard''' on this. There are about 10 seconds of the transformation that are nothing but going down the transforming man's body showing off torso and legs, and at least one moment of those transformations focus on the character's crotch, like showing Ranmaru wearing a glowing thong before pants appear as well as seeing the cloth wrapping itself around Homura's crotch to make his thong.
* {{Moe}}: In-universe, this is the subject of the second episode, when an editor tries to force his mangaka to draw moe when she wants to draw men.
* ThePowerOfRage: Homura collects power from a woman's rage and is able to use it to fight.
