Shuffle! (シャッフル！; always written with an exclamation mark) is an H game made by Navel for the Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 2 platforms. It has also been adapted into a 24 episode anime series, which is currently airing on the WOWOW television network.
Synopsis
(Note that names are written in Western order, with the Japanese equivalent in parentheses.)
Seventeen-year-old high school student Rin Tsuchimi (土見 稟) lives in a world where a gateway connected the world of the gods and the world of the demons to the human world, enabling the gods and demons to coexist happily with each other and with the mortals.
One day, a family of gods and a family of demons move in both sides of Rin's home and he is dubbed by the two families' patriarchs to choose between the goddess Lisianthus (リシアンサス) and the demoness Nerine (ネリネ) to be his future wife. This selection is intensified by the fact that these two are not only princesses but also are friends of each other and have met him in the past on separate occasions.
Complicating things further are Rin's childhood friend and housemate Kaede Fuyou (芙蓉 楓), whose cute and polite personality has attracted a legion of fans; Rin's senior Asa Shigure (時雨亜沙), who has the hots for him; and the mysterious and almost silent demoness Primula (プリムラ).
