Alright, a crash course for the uninformed.
Wallflower is a manga (comic) about four beautiful young guys living with a scary, slasher/horror/occult-obsessed girl that looks like she's from
The Ring. Her aunt owns the house they all live in, and the boys pay her rent. She has agreed to let them live in the house (mansion, really) for free if they can just turn her scary niece into a real lady. I've got all the manga released in the states so far, and I've been watching the anime using YouTube. The anime is slightly more realistic as far as I can tell, because as of yet, I have not come across the "posession by a dead dominatrix lady" plot-line, one of the very first stories in the manga. There is also more romance/shipping in the anime, which is definitely fun for all those Kyouhei/Sunako fans out there.
The specific Media for the week is an offical AMV done for near the end of the series called To Love by some person or music group named Zhang Zheng something-or-other.
Here are some fun links for you!

However, Wallflower is, I think, a better english name for the series. It's catchier and doesn't sound corny when you understand the words.
