SynopsisMaiku Kamishiro's past has always been somewhat of a mystery to him. The only clue he has to who is family might be is an old photograph showing two young children, a boy and a girl, playing in a small pool outside of a blue house. In an attempt to find his family, he moves to this blue house and begins working as a programmer. He's living a comfortable life until the day two very different girls show up at his door, both in possession of the same photograph, and both claiming to be his twin. With no way to prove who is a relative and who is a stranger, Maiku allows both girls to move in with him until they know for sure.

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 setting, diffent story and feel. Worth a look.
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.

Feb 29, 200812 of 12 episodes seen 10 of 13 people found this review helpful There are teacher fans, and there are Twins fans, and personally I'm more of a Twins fan than a Teacher fan. I find this anime to be superior in many ways to it's predecessor. First it has a smaller cast of characters so there's no real confusion or wondering what's going on with each character as in Teacher. Also the romance that is developed is more...clear. Teacher is quite confusing because you never really know what level their relationship is at.
Story: Maiku (Michael) l...ives on his own, he's an orphan, but he has a nice job that he worked really hard for so that he can remain independent. His only family is a girl, that he doesn't know, he just has a baby picture of the two of them playing in an inflatable pool. He's living in the house in the picture that he saw in a UFO special on tv (from Teacher). His life is pretty good until one day a girl shows up claiming she's his sister. And she decides that she's going to live with him because she doesn't have anywhere else to go, and hey, they're siblings right? Maybe not, because another girl shows up claiming again to be Maiku's sister. So...which one is it? The way the characters are set up, and according to their reactions and introductions I knew by the first episode which one was his sister and which one is the one that he was going to fall in love with....but I still enjoyed watching it. It's not an amazing story, it's more just ideas that were thrown together for each episode and it works quite nicely, and it makes the show really cute.
Art: Everything is colourful. There are a lot of bright happy colours. It's not a bad thing, but it made me feel like the anime was a little too fake. They never really add too much detail to anything, and the characters seem really flat. I couldn't stand the eyes they used in this anime, they just didn't hold any depth to them at all. However the art does suit the mood of the piece, as it is a relatively happy anime.
Sound: Eugh, They use the same opening as Teacher, and if you've seen it through teacher you'd probabably had enough of it. Seeing it again through Twins is absurdly annoying. The rest of the music is kind of bland and never really stood out in my mind.
Character: Stereotypes. It really makes this a typical anime. Again, based on the characters in the first episode I was able to figure out who was his sister and who was his lover....and I was right too. I would have liked if they had fleshed out the characters better, instead of having the outgoing one and the shy one who faints when she gets nervous. If they had really fleshed out the two female protagonists, made them a little more similar but at the same time making them unique the anime would have been thousands of times better. There's not much to say about Maiku, other than that he's pretty much mostly annoyed at their presence but still cares enough about them to not throw them out of his house. There's also a gay guy....who, as it turns out, isn't really gay...if you watch the episode you'll be incredibly confused. He provides more than half of the humor in the anime. Oh and all of the characters from Teacher are seen again. Ichigo is made into a main character, and she spends all of her time tormenting Maiku....again, she knew the sister right away as well.
Enjoyment: The anime isn't great, it's not superb in any way, shape, or form. But it's still enjoyable. It's very happy, upbeat, something you watch when you've just finished watching something that didn't make you feel all that great.
I would say to watch Teacher first. If you see Teacher before you see Twins and you enjoy Teacher, then go watch Twins for a more coherent experience. If you hated Teacher, watch Twins....because if you hated Teacher....you might just enjoy Twins. That's confusing, I know...but watching Twins before Teacher just doesn't make much sense, and a lot of the jokes won't be the same. read more

May 23, 200812 of 12 episodes seen 5 of 7 people found this review helpful Before I start I must say, this is from a standpoint of watching Twins before Teacher. So this review may not be agreed with others who watch Teacher before Twins. Still, I must say this anime was cute and fun to watch.
The story was fun and easy to follow along to. It's not in every anime you have two pretty girls claiming to be your sister, let alone falling in love with them. The fact that it adds "twincest", like in Ouran, is very unusual and adds a twist to the show.... But, it was a bit obvious who the real twin was and who wasn't. At times it seemed to have cliche love moments added into it as well. All in all, the story was interesting and drew you into it.
The artwork was satisfying. At times it seemed they got lazy and the drawings seemed unrealistic. It was colorful and bright, matching to the plot a bit. Though, it bothers me when normal humans in anime have oddly colored hair unless it's dyed, which rarely happens. I really only think it's acceptable if they're aliens or monsters. But on the upside, it was usually detailed and cute at the same time.
The sound was okay. I rarely pay attention to it, but at times it seemed annoying or normal. I don't have much to say there. The ending and beginning themes were fun to sing along to.
It drew me in whenever I watched an episode or when a dramatic moment happened. It was funny and carefree and had it's share of moments. It was definetly something I'd recommend to my friends.
Overall, it was a great anime to watch. It had an interesting beginning and a satisfying ending. The artist did a great job and I was happy to be watching it. If you haven't, I'd suggest searching the internet or getting the DVD set for this. You'll be happy you watched this show. read more

Nov 14, 200812 of 12 episodes seen 2 of 6 people found this review helpful It's been said before that there are Twins fans and Teacher fans. In the first few episodes of this show, I was thinking, "man, this is way better than Onegai Teacher." And the first few are. They're actually really funny and look like a buildup to a great romance. Then, it starts to suck. The same situations repeat over and over, it stops being funny, and the characters REALLY got on my nerves. It's like this all the way through the end.
STORY:
It's actually a cl...ever idea, and a lot could have been done with it. Quite liked it.
ART:
It's the same as Onegai Teacher - all bright colours. It's nothing special, but it's pretty enough.
SOUND:
The score was pretty good in parts, and the voice acting was definitely quality.
CHARACTER:
Probably the worst part for me. Especially during the last few episodes, the characters got infuriating. The male lead is brusque and never really shows any emotion. (This makes me wonder why women are falling all over him.) The girls he's living with are annoying, indecisive, and overly emotional. Do you like characters who act like idiots in all situations, ignore reason in favour of being whiny, practically push away the people around them, and seem to hate themselves with a passion because they injured themselves a few years ago? 'Nuff said.
ENJOYMENT:
First few episodes, as I've already said, were pretty damn good. The ending wasn't bad, either. However, if I could go back in time, I probably wouldn't watch this again. read more
