These shows are so similar that the characters in Onegai Teacher show up in Onegai Twins. Both have the same comedic feel to them and pretty much the exact same art. They're both ecchi filled too. If you've seen one, you should automatically see the other.
Same setting, diffent story and feel. Worth a look.
Part of the series onegai! and a lot of same characters!
X3
Onegai Twins is a spin-off of Onegai Teacher. The action happens in the same town, a few years later, with new characters. You also get to see the Onegai Teacher characters around like Miss Mizuho and the entire gang. It's really worth watching, a great spin-off of a superb story ^.^

Same funny story about a guy who gets visited by a women..same slightly sexual humor as well. The only difference is that in ah my goddess the women are goddesses but in onegai they're aliens.
Both are pretty much the same. A guy gets stuck with living with a overly-gorgeous girl and romance/comedy ensues.
Very similar plot line except that Onegai Teacher's physical intimacy matures at a much greater rate. I guess thats good for Impatient Anime-niacs like myself, however I love BOTH of them!

Nov 14, 200812 of 12 episodes seen 7 of 8 people found this review helpful This is an interesting series to review. First because I think alot of people are going to read the summery of this show and dismiss it right away without even giving it a try and that is really a shame. As far as romances go this is one of the more satisfying series I have watched.
Lets face it that for a large number of people the student teacher romance that is the core of this show is probably going to offend or at the least make people feel a little uncomfortable. With so ...many high profile real life cases, this sort of thing doesnt feel like the innocent school crush that I think almost everyone (boy or girl) had for a teacher at their school at some point in their life. To be honest I felt a little uncomfortable at times with it. Even though they do point out that Kei is 18 and do to an illness that caused him to miss 3 years of school he was held back. So legally atleast no laws are being broken I suppose.
The premise of the story is, well to put it bluntly, one of the silliest if not the silliest I have ever seen in an anime (and thats saying something really). But what develops out of this turns into a very touching romance as both develop their love and feelings for one another. The supporting characters also have romances of their own and it was refreshing to see a show in which all the female characters were not in love with the same guy. The whole alien aspect of the show and Mizuho's really reason for being on earth is really just a small subplot of the series and the story is pretty much totally focused on the romantic elements. Which is great! Also you might think a show like this would be pretty echii but it really isnt, which was a pleasant surprise for me. Sure there is fan service but its pretty tame for the most part. There are alot of adult themes as well so this isnt a show for kids.
The show does a great job in developing all its characters. The two leads and the main supporting characters all get fleshed out very nicely and by the end of the series I really felt they changed and grew. This is really a strong point of the show. However a couple things did annoy me that forced me to knock down the rating I gave it a little. One, Kei constantly refers to Mizuho as Sensei, even when they are alone and intimate. I expected him to grow in this way but with few exceptions he almost never refers to her by her name. I know that may sound like a silly thing to some but I think its important. In addition it constantly reminds you of the whole indecency of the relationship I talked about above. Also Kei is also kinda an annoying wussy.
The acting is pretty good, Kei's voice actor is not that great. He kinda reinforces the whole weakling aspect of his character that got on my nerves as the show went on. The music shines though, with KOTOKO and Mami Kawada doing the songs pretty much saves my view of the overall sound. The art is great too, especially Mizuho and her mother. I love Mizuhos school hairstyle and dress! Again Kei suffers here as well as sometimes he almost looks like a girl.
I think I could have gone higher in my rating on this show, but really some of the discomfort I felt about the story takes away from my overall enjoyment of this series. But dont get me wrong this was a great show! If you even like romance anime even a little you should watch this. read more

Jul 13, 200712 episodes 32 of 42 people found this review helpful Onegai Teacher review by realanimefan.
Well there is an alternative title to this Anime, and Onegai Teacher is the English title, it’s actually Onegai Teichiya. I would actually rate this into my top 5 best watch Animes but since my favourite Animes to watch are romance ones, some of you probably won't agree me then but if you are a lover of romantic Animes like me, then you should have a watch of this. This series starts of with a 15 year old boy named Kei ...Kusanagi who is a normal boy that encountered an UFO as he was relaxing near the lake, that UFO appeared to be their new Japanese teacher; Mizuho Kazami. Those two end up falling in love together. Each episode brings some laughs as well as some really touching scenes, and some that might be for older viewer, if you know what I mean ;). I don't want to release all the info or else I'll put you off or spoil it for you, so that’s all I am going to write but if you really into romance, then this anime could be for you. In my opinion, I found this Anime very touching similar to "Kimi Ga Nozumu Eien", if you liked that Anime, then you should give 'Onegai Teacher' a shot and you'll probably enjoy it. There is also are part 2 for this Anime called Onegai Twins, you should give it a watch as well, it will be explained in the other review, please read it. Hopefully this has provided you with a good look at what the Anime is like. Please have a good watch, all you Anime people out there.
If you found this review helpful please be my friend and email me so i can help with any other anime titels you might have questions about.
Thank you for reading. read more

Nov 27, 200712 of 12 episodes seen 13 of 20 people found this review helpful This anime is definitely a classic. I would have to say that if you are a fan of a romantic, fantasy, ecchi, and comedy genres, then you will love this series. The animation is bright and very colorful, just like the characters. The story works on a multitude of levels. It seems surprising to me how many topic this touches on, and I won't give any of them away. You'll just have to watch the series to find out.
While not trying to give anything away, there are characters who have v...ery serious moments, but also have those comedic moments thrown in there as well. The way in which the characters react stay fluid, and by the end I felt as though I was going to miss watching them.
It definitely has it's ups and downs, and the ride is amazing. While the plot tends to get really deep, it not afraid to peak back up at the surface for just a little fun, especially in the OVA. One last note, if you're looking for the dubbed version it's Please Teacher, but if you're looking for the subbed it's Onegai Teacher. read more
