Please Save My Earth is a very gentle yet tragic exploration of the power of destiny and personal struggle. While there is some outstanding action scenes towards the end of the 6 episode OAV, the series revolves around the development and destruction of the main characters. The plot itself is intermingled with a metaphysical look at the deceptive appearance of innocence and the desperate and destructive poison of love. While some may find the plot slow-moving, to others (more accustomed to shoujo anime) the story is very intense and involves very tragic and touching descriptions of personal dreams and even pride.

About a year ago, I was shopping for books at a local secondhand store when I found what looked like a bargain: a bin of anime DVDs for 15$. When I took them home, I watched and most of them weren't too good - until I watched Please Save My Earth. It blew me away in a way that I haven't been since I first discovered subtitled anime. I cannot believe that something that good happened to be in a bargain bin.
Story: The basic premise of PSME is the tragedy of seven reincarnated researchers. Originally members of a scientifically ... Oct 7, 2018
Boku no Chikyuu wo Mamotte, or Please Save My Earth, has a very compelling plot with an average execution. Like many other series from the 1990s, the atmosphere is there, but the series is glued together by some very good scenes, followed by monotonous drama. Despite my criticism, I think Please Save My Earth is worth watching. It was a very important series to me when I was younger.
• The story is about a group of alien scientists observing Earth from a moon-base before being able to visit the planet. Tragically, a deadly disease kills all of them on the space station before any ... Apr 17, 2017
Starting off with the simple, face value stuff: The art is standard to it's era. There's nothing separating this anime style from most of the others in the 90s. The sound was sub-standard. The voice mics seemed regular, but the some sound effects were missing in "lesser" scenes and some of the sounds effects were lackluster in more "epic" scenes.
The story is terribly boring. With a title like "Please Save My Earth" and knowing it was about people being reincarnated I originally thought there was a threat that killed the last people, and they were purposefully reincarnated to address the threat. It turns it that ... Jan 21, 2022
Why you should watch Boku no Chikyuu wo Mamotte (Please Save My Earth) anime? / Zašto pogledati Boku no Chikyuu wo Mamotte (Please Save My Earth) anime?
English language: This is one of the best anime I’ve watched. Personally, I didn’t expect anything special when I read the summary. Since it had 6 episodes I decided to watch it because I have another anime more that I watched. The story is initially about Alice Sakaguchi who, due to a misunderstanding, accidentally finds out that her classmates Jinpachi and Issei constantly have common dreams that are recurring dreams about a group of lunar-based scientists observing the Earth. ...

Non Spoilery Review:
Story: Gripping from the beginning and has a lot of potential. There is a lot of mystery to the characters and how they are connected which draws you in. I personally couldn't stop myself from watching the next episode. However the finale will not give you a satisfying conclusion to the story. The story is still interesting and unique enough to watch if you are looking for something to pass the time. Art: The art style would be considered dated given it's release back in the 90's, but don't let that put you off. The overall aesthetic is beautifully done and the ... Jan 23, 2022
-----------Spoiler Free Review-----------
For anyone planning to watch this anime, a disclaimer is to be made. Please Save My Earth does not have an ending. The final scene in the 6th episode is a sneak peak of compilation of events that happen in the manga. Basically, Please Save My Earth has a "go read the manga" ending. Despite such a lackluster ending, you must be wondering why still a 10/10 review? Because this series is a phenomenal piece of work. It an outstanding performance of animation, music and story, and a true testament to what anime in the 90's really was. Any avid watcher of anime should have ... Oct 10, 2023
Initially I was looking for reference poses to draw, for some reason I found pictures of 2 characters from this anime, namely Issei and Shusuran. At first I thought this was an ordinary old anime with a story that wasn't good, but it turns out that after episode 2 the story got even more interesting. The characters' personalities are very unique, making me curious about their respective stories in their previous lives. Actually the story is quite predictable, but if we just watch the anime we don't know what ending Shion will achieve in Rin's body at the moment.
If only this anime could be ... |
