The title is probably a pun on the verb ‘kurenai’ which means, to not give, which is also the name of the main character (which means crimson), but whatever, that doesn’t even matter. Anyhow, Kure-nai is about a 16-year-old boy who works as a mediator of disputes, and ends up meeting a 7-year-old girl (and you can let your imagination run wild from there). The show is really just about the misadventures of this boy, and I can see it turning into a harem down the road somewhere. Again, I hope the quality will be high…I’m just a bit worried about how Kurenai’s seiyuu is a woman…
