| Ichika comes back at the end cause she is wearing the shirt that Kaito's sister brought back from Bolivia. The last two episodes were great, but otherwise the story was pretty generic. 7/10 AnoNatsu was a decent watch. Remon FTW! |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Hahaha. Remon is a freakin' MIB agent! That explains how she can drive that transforming van. She might be an heiress. Hahaha. Love her. I thought it would be a bittersweet ending, but she got the jacket!!! This series redeemed itself! 8/10. |

| not a bad ending :D though i'd probably miss Lemon the most |
| Nope. |
| I really have no regrets having watched this anime. I rofl'ed when they revealed that MIB exists in this anime. Good thing we got a happy ending after all! 8/10 |
 When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. |
| Great anime, only lacking in the ending. That last scene was unnecessary. It did not confirm nor reject whether ichika and kaito eventually got back together. Knowledge that the MIB had a spacecraft already suggested that there was the possibility. Ichika being in a video makes u wonder whether they eventually met up or if it was special effects |
| O_O MIB Japan Branch... lol made me do a double take... I like the ending... I was thinking she will prob get taken away just like Onegai Sensei but come back later on. Hmm... I wonder if there is a second season. |
 K-ON v1.1 ... Please leave you comments on my profile! ^_^ |
| A boring, cliche, cheesy and predictable anime that threw in the alien genre just to raise conflict and try to make it different. The only character I even liked was Remon. Everyone else I could careless for. Can't see why everyone is fawning over it. You must be new to the harem genre. 5/10 average at best. Considering lowering to a 4. |
| Dont touch me I'm in despair. |
| It's the MIB!!! Finally they do appear! xD And they brought the Sims with them - regarding that thing coming out of the lake... |

| Nice wrap-up with connections to Onegai series and plausible connections between Remon and Ichigo. The additional ending scene in the screening of the movie at school with Ichika dressed in Bolivian souvenir shirt confirms that she came back relatively quickly. I will leave this with a high mark if only because Remon was such a troll.... |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| I enjoyed the animation of the whole series. Ya the story was a little cliched but the whole "she's an alien thing" was interesting. The ending did make me happy though ;D i thought for sure she was gone forever but there she was in the shirt kai's sister bought her! |
  |
| Loved the ending too much to talk about so I'll just ask this. I really think this and Onegai Teacher are the same universe so after that ending I have a theory: Ano Natsu was before Onegai Teacher because if you think about it in that series she's half human half alien and they all make contact with humans with no issue. Does anyone else think this is plausible? |
| Ah finished ^^ this was an awesome series. Kaito and Ichika got back together only shown in the film movie which Kaito finally completed and Ichika's spaceship broke again XD. I was suprised to hear Kazami's Voice from Onegai Teacher in this last episode. And is that the SAME Lake that took place in Onegai Teacher as well? And I believe Remon is Ichigo, even after so many years passed she still has the "standstill" condition for being eternally 17. Well thats my theory anyways :P. |

Does anyone else think this is plausible? But from the scene at the lake it looks like it's the opposite first was Onegai and than some time later Ichika came to Earth also it was told that memory of this event were somehow erased what is weird was, if I recall properly, Onegai was set in some future but here we don't see to much of advance (ok in Onegai also but it was told if memory serves) |
| Loved it! Hmmm prob my favorite show this season. It really didn't disappoint me at all. The last two episodes were pretty powerful. Thank God Ichika was able to come back to Earth. Going to have to give props to Remon and Rinon (...and MIB lol) for that advancement. It would of been an excellent serious regardless but the way it ended left me with smile and a tear instead of just the latter. |
| LOL REMON IS ACTUALLY FROM THE MIB!?!?? That was freakin hilarious! The whole Anime was pretty average to me but the last 2 episodes saved it for me. Was a pretty fun watch overall. =p Overall Score: 6/10 |

Cratex said: I've posted my overall thoughts on this series on Kat's Anime Blog. nice review I would only argue with visual part - but it's simply me liking how they were changing sometimes colors (most visible in opening) but they were doing sometimes in series - with increasing or decreasing saturation of colors and I always thought that Remon has no game or plan... she was doing it for teh lulz :) |

|
| The plot at times was a little ... eh ... hokey... but like others have said the last two episodes made the series. The ending was simply in one word "perfect" :) |
 |
| Perfect Bittersweet ending. I am kinda used to happy endings so I really felt bad when Ichika was all crying over Kaito and vice versa.... It made me feel a little bit uneasy at first but then when i was watching through the last minutes, It think it made me all up to be happy though i have some grudges at the end 'cause it was pretty awful but then again, It was a Very Good series after all. There should be an OVA coming soon so that we'll know what really happened to Ichika back when she was ordered to come back and when she came back to see everyone at the end. Apart from that, I'll Give this a 9/10 Very Good series with a light and hearwarming plot that everyone can relate into 'cause it somehow depicts some real life situations on love. |
| Freaking Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones blowing shit up! Was a good watch with great character, meh story and a decent ending. 7/10 |
| Leave it to Will Smith to save a couple in love. MIB Japan branch sounded really cool and it does explain about all the toys Lemon was using and how she always appeared at the locations with that camera. The ending wasn't bad really and it looks like we might get a OVA hope it's a good one. What bothered be about this anime was the number of cliff hangers which was almost every episode. |
| Shit ending for a shit show. At least Ichika DID come back. |
 |
| So Lemon wasn't an alien, she was part of the MIB. Lol what the hell, them rocket launchers just came outta nowhere. And even Tetsurou's sisters husband is MIB, lol what in the world. Lemon is the best character in the show no doubt. They was pretty sad watching the two of them being forced to say good bye, and it got even sadder when Lemon gave them the film. It just showed all the events they've been through + that song being a perfect fit, reliving everything again sure made my eye teary. Dno why but when it flashes to the future and they mention the film being shown again, it just made me feel empty knowing they've all grown up and its been years since that summer happened. Well that was before they showed Ichika at the end of the film! Looks like she came back!?! |
 |
| Remon sempai: best troll of 2012. I knew Remon was MIB, it was the first thing she said to Ichika when they started filming. Remon never lies! |

| I literally LOL-ed when the MIB came out because it was so ridiculously over the top but in a good way. Never would have expected Lemon was part of MIB and she looks awesome in that suit as well. Also i find it sweet that Kaito left behind the video of that summer that they spent and showing that Ichika came back was well done. And to that ancestor's voice i really hope it was Mizuho's voice actor cause that would be really neat. All in all this was a good series which i was anticipating since its a ten year anniversary of Onegai Teacher and i thoroughly enjoyed it throughout along with the awesome song such as Kotoko singing the OP again and Nagi-sama singing that wonderful ending and it being played at every ED really made it memorable. The final episode was also able to play the OST's with the scene beautifully so I give this a 9/10. P.S. Really hoping for an OVA, would love to see what happens after the final episode thats if they followed what Onegai Teacher and Twins did. |

Cratex said: Mostly because the relationship conflict is the essence of most of this show (with the alien thing coming as a climactic ending and nothing else) while Clannad leaves the love triangle to a minority of the show. It was still there though although it was pretty obvious who Tomoya would choose. Technically it was also obvious who was gonna be chosen in Ano Natsu too... only Tetsurou's triangle was ambiguous and the sad part is that it remained ambiguous since he never chose.Leon-Gun said: I suppose we could argue the definitions, but I don't consider Ano Natus De Matteru a harem.

| The only thing that makes me sad is the fact that there's a possibility that Mizuho got arrested by the federation and got her memory erased.... No.......... Mizuho is a sweethear!! More naive than Ichika, i can't imagine her getting arrested :( |
| Oh hey, this ending was pretty mint. Better than I expected it to be. The "Mizuho" was a very nice touch. All in all, great anime. But Tetsurou and Mio not ending up together was a disappointment. Even though its kind of obvious they will. |
 |
| As for the Mizuho reference, this is a bit of a spoiler, so I'll tag it just to be safe |

| I demand a clear ending. |
 |
| This has has to be the surprise of the winter 2012 anime releases along with Another i guess. I never expected this to be that Excellent in every way. I feel like when everytime i think about this, plus the OP and ED, It makes me go back to some unforgettable scenes/moments and scenery of this one. I feel like crying too. It's been 4 days now since the date of when i finished this series and I can't still get over it. Probably one of the best romance sci fi series this year. I have no regrets of taking it this year. Good Anime Series. Apart from that, I think Hyouka does have the same feel of this. I dunno but let's see but I hope It does. I've been looking for these kind of dramas nowadays lol ;D |
| A lot of people are saying the ending wasn't clear enough. I think it is pretty simple to infer that -Lemon and the MIB, with Rinon's help and the data collected during Ichika's stay on Earth, were able to make great strides in intersteller travel. This would lead to joining the Galactic Federation and being able to contact Ichika again. -Ichika DID come back. Based on what she was wearing in the film as well as Kaito's dialogue (You broke your spaceship? Again?) one can assume she came back. I guess you could poke holes in it or fear for the worst, but I think it is easy to imagine a happy ending. |
