NHS started out as a miniseries that mainly parodied famous anime and manga conventions. The story centers around Jeremy Feeple, an ordinary student at Quagmire High, living an ordinary life. Shortly into the story, beautiful female ninja named Itchy Koo (real name Ichi Kun) and an alien princess named Asrial show up out of the blue to marry the poor boy. The earlier stories focus on the girls' comedic attempts to marry this seemingly plain, ordinary high school boy.

As the series progressed, more backstory was given to the main characters, and a rather large and unwieldly cast was created. Most of the cast are manga archetypes of varying degrees.

The book originally featured mostly slapstick humor, but later story arcs have become more serious, delving into murder, drugs and homosexuality.
