Yes the girls are awesome, but I actually like the protagonist of this series. His overreactions become mitigated as the series goes on and he's not annoyingly didactic either.
One thing that I'm thankful for is that he allows his Sekirei to actually fight. I swear if I see one more "protect the girl / girls shouldn't do that" protagonists I'll... probably just be very annoyed. (HSD Kenichi, Maken-Ki, Nagasarete Airantou, R+V, etc.)
For the most part he's not pessimistic either. He's humble, does the laundry, cries, etc. A nice change of pace from the usual testosterone contests of lead characters. Ah, and he occasionally looks like L, which is also nice.

There are a lot archetypal harem features to this work, but there's a lot to love as well. An intriguing plot that seems to get more and more intricate, compelling characters (well, some of them), bitter rivalries, and dark history. Its been done before, but this stands out from others.
As others have mentioned, there is MAJOR fanservice, if that's what you're after. And...Kusano is sooooo cute! She makes me feel all fuzzy inside.

Wow, huge fan service. I love this manga. There are some manga that lose quality even though it has lots of fan service. But this manga has a good art and story which makes it great/nice/the bomb/etc. There are character development in this manga too. Man, I want to participate and become an Ashikabi!!!! What's Ashikabi? Find out by reading this manga! It's good.

In the first volume, I didn't much like Sekirei but as I went on, I started getting hooked. The girls are somewhat cliches but at the same time I really enjoy reading about the huge cast of characters. I can't get over Ku chan and Tsukiumi, they're so cute. :x
At first sigth all I saw was the big boobs and the excellent art work (hey nothing wrong with that 
) But after getting used to the enormous sized boobs, I was really sucked into the story. The story is really intressting, and Im glad that i keept on reading it.
If you manege to see past the enormous boobs, you ll find a good overall manga that is definitely worth reading. And if you are a ecchi or a big boob fan then this manga is a must.

Is it just me or this is looking a bit like Claymore now? Only there's less action and a bit more fanservice. I only stuck around because of the sexy girls but now I want to know what's going on really.
Anyway, it's a fun read. It's a bit silly on some parts especially the early chapters but it develops well as it goes on.

In the beginning the artwork and the ecchiness got me hook to read this manga. After awhile they add more girls and it becomes quite a mess. I guess this manga is just fanservice since i`m not excited to read the next available scanlation.
perhaps i'm a bit biased in saying this, but i think the series has kinda lost it's luster, though perhaps thats just cause of the infrequent releases. i find that series are better when you have a lot of chapters you have yet to read, since you then can read them all in a row, and follow the story better. this series is pretty good, there is a lot of fanservice, but the last few chapters for me have been somewhat slow. overall, a good read.
The Mangaka is female, that explains the sudden appearance of a 'bishounen',...
Well the story is good, but it definitely lacks something.
It's typical harem. Just can't believe that yaoi & shounen-ai author draws [ or writes ? ] this piece.
[ If u plan to grab some boobs then this is for you. ]
[ I prefer a smaller one, rather these heavy-pair of boobies.., just can't believe that how they are moving so agile
- I prefer a bit smaller, and cute one ]
