Iriya no Sora, UFO no Natsu

"Iriya no Sora, UFO no Natsu". I saw this was recommended to people who enjoyed Saikano, so i thought i'd give it a try. Even though the story seemed awkward from the synopsis, i was actually looking forward to it.
My first impression was "Oh, i hate how the main character is drawn". I decided to let it be, that i wouldn't let such a minor detail smuther my enjoyment, since i had heard and read good things about this. Fortunately, he was the only eye-sore. The art was pretty well made, and in the end it was one of the best qualities of this ... anime.
The setting was the average cliche school drama anime. Girl/boy meets boy/girl under peculiar circumstances, and the next day boy/girl transfers to girl's/boy's class. This didn't bother me at all, i actually didn't even think of it as cliche until now, while i'm writing this. The story was rather unique, and was another of the animes better selling points.
What wasn't so appealing were the characters personalities. Some of the characters seemed more like they were created for the sole purpose of creating humorous situations. Let's take the club-president (i forgot the name) for example. An overly eccentric UFO-maniac who doesn't seem to have much relevancy to the plot. This wasn't the biggest problem with the characters in this anime, however. What i found more disturbing were some of the characters actions and responses, that reaked of irrationality, and wich i would deem unnatural and melodramatic. Often even unlogical, but that can be swept under the carpet due to the reasoning of "actions caused by feelings are rarely logical".
"Iriya no Sora, UFO no Natsu" is an anime with a unique plot and great potential, wich is ruined by badly made characters, and their badly made personalities.
This anime deserved a 3, but i gave it a 4 in the end due to the pretty graphics and unique story.

This was a tacky review made by me. Forgive the tackiness, it's past midnight and i'm sleepy.

What is this show about? No really, I'm not all that sure myself. Something about fighting aliens? I really don't fucking know. There were too many unexplained events to make any sense of it all. Everything seemed to just happen, without any reason as to why it happened. The plot seems to just go all over the place, the characters are a mess, and nothing really makes sense. I can't even describe this show's problems accurately since there's nothing to really even go off of.

Much of the show seems to just exist as filler. Everything ... just happens for the sake of continuation. THAT's the reason why there's only six episodes..
