Overview: After school on a rainy day, eighth-grader Kazuto Iizuka's heart is stolen by a girl with a mysterious way of talking and acting. Her name is Narue Nanase. The problem is, she seems to be an alien. Her personality is that of someone who seems destined to a life of poverty and her special power is teleportation. Kazuto confesses his love to her and their relationship begins. But, as expected of an alien, Narue is surrounded by strange people, if they could be called that. Kazuto's life suddenly becomes a series of odd events.
Personal Opinion:
What a weird little anime, supposedly its to combine comedy, romance and sci-fi into this.. kind of a standard in the anime world eh?
This anime reminds me of Onegai Teacher in many ways, mainly due to its high emphasis on the main characters and its romantic gesture, and in some respects it does some things better than Onegai Teacher.
The romance in this anime is pretty good, the two main characters showed enough devlopment and design to show they care for one another, maybe not the strongest relationship i've seen btu it is certainly there. Though the romance is weird and wacky, it is pretty cute and sweet stuff.
Comedy wise, this is 'ok' stuff, thoguh not an all-out laughter anime, it certainly has its moments. Though, much of the praise has to go to the cutness of this anime.
Story-wise, it ain't strong enough, not enough emphasis has been placed on the story or plot at all, thoguh it was obvious they have tried, it was nothing amazing that most anime fans have seen before. As this is the main weak point for this anime, the way it tried to take itself too seriously when in some respects, it didn't really need to.
Overall, a decent little anime to take time away, a little sharpening up needs to be done on the story and other character's development, otherwise its sweet, cute romantic story is pretty enjoyable stuff. Though not amazing...
