Premise

An unknown type of alien called "Censor Bug" (キセイ蟲, Kiseichū) invades Earth. They plunder "H-energy" in an attempt to make mankind extinct. To save the Earth from the alien threat, high school boy Retto Enjō joins the "HxEros" team, partnering with four beautiful high school girls, one of whom is his childhood friend Kirara Hoshino. However, it turns out that Kirara's personality has drastically changed, which leads to an estrangement between the two childhood friends.

Reception

As of October 2019, the manga had 900,000 copies in circulation.[45] Nicholas Dupree of Anime News Network called the series a "good-vs-evil superpowered girls show," while fellow reviewer, Monique Thomas called it a "horny Super Sentai parody show."[57] Dupree also praised the series for being more in-depth than what they expected, but Thomas criticized it for, at times, its "sex positive fanservice" falling flat. Both reviewers pointed out that Maihime has a "lesbian prince girlfriend," noting it is not the only lesbian relationship in the series, as one of Kirara's friends, not part of the Super HxEros, is "dating an older girl."[57]
