For People Who Like Shoojo Anime
The basic plot for this shoojo anime is a love triangle involving three girls in high school. One of the girls was originally a boy, but got changed into a girl during an unfortunate encounter with space aliens.
The principal focus of this anime (like most shoojo anime) is on feelings and relationships. People who like mecha and demons should look elsewhere for entertainment.
Since I have two daughters and a granddaughter, I am rather fond of girls in general, and I particularly like the three main characters in this anime. I wish them well in their struggles with their feelings, although I do wonder why they need to form a triangle; why can't they just be three together, instead of splitting into a bonded pair and somebody who gets left out?
This anime is very well done, so far as the main characters are concerned. I took off one star for the bizarre treatment of adults.
Role reversal or Gender Reversal
An interesting take on the old love triangle. A boy in love with one girl while another is in love with him that is until the boy is accidentally turned into a girl after a close encounter with an alien space ship. Now that he is a she his/her romantic problems get even more confusing with both the girls in her life and the boy who was his now her best friend.
Note: this is subtitled only, there is no English dialogue and the subtitles themselves are a bit large and distracting but otherwise its an interesting story and nicely animated.
Good Story, Bad Voice acting.
Hazumu confesses his love to Yasuna, but he is rejected. One day he is nearly killed by an alien space ship that crashes. The aliens are able to save his life, but somehow he is turned into a girl during the process. Now Hazumu has to adjust to being a girl. He was never a boyish dude, so it's not all that hard. Now Hazumu is caught in a love triangle with her old tomboyish friend, Tomari, and Yasuna. Yasuna discovers that she has feelings for Hazumu, now that he's a she. That's pretty mean if you ask me. The whole get lost attitude changes now that Hazumu is a hot chick. But that's the way this series goes.
This anime has a very different type of atmosphere to it. It's a bit like Destiny of the Shrine Maiden, and it also reminds me of Kanokon. My only complaint is that the voice actors are bad. That's probably why it reminds me of Kanokon lol. The animation, soundtrack, and chracters are all very well done. It's fun, dramatic, funny, and emotional. The language isn't too...
