Synopsis

When he arrives at Astro Lodge to interview for the head chef position, Takumi Miyasaka finds a run-down boarding house instead of a fancy restaurant. Disappointed, Takumi nonetheless demonstrates his skills, much to the delight of the eccentric tenants. The happiest among them is the charming landlady, Mira Gotokuji, who falls in love with his cooking. On the other hand, Takumi falls in love with Mira. He decides to take the job as the breakfast chef at Astro Lodge and moves into Room 5.

Takumi soon notices strange things about Mira; she is hopelessly clueless about modern technology and Japanese food. In addition, Takumi hears an unfamiliar voice coming from Mira's room. What he does not realize is that Mira is an alien who has recently arrived from another planet on an important secret mission.

'Making a rom-com anime is simple, but making a simple rom-com anime is the hardest thing there is.' - Otaku Cruyff........

Though that was a playful twist on Johan Cruyff's wisdom, it encapsulates what I loved most about 'Astro Note'. That is its simplicity. This anime's charm lies in its straightforwardness, mirrored in every character it portrays. 'Astro Note' is a must-watch, especially if you're nostalgic for the 90s or simply a rom-com enthusiast.

Plot (7/10):

The core of 'Astro Note's' plot is reminiscent of many classic anime, employing the familiar 'living under the same roof' trope. In this regard, 'Maison Ikkoku' notably comes to mind. The young, ...

Astro Note - You won't be going to space with this one.

It's been a while since we've had any form of anime when it comes to the sci-fi realm (a.k.a original shows), the recent few of which I would remember as being not good at all (a la last season's Metallic Rouge), and very few and far between that I would actually consider to be enjoyable, with one very notable show being Spring 2019's RobiHachi. Why? Because this is the same director who would go on to direct the newest seasonal sci-fi show of the season: Astro Note, a (literate) down-to-Earth rom-com about aliens on ...

Preliminary (7/12 eps)
The only watchable rom-com released in the past decade was Love is War. Astro Note is kind of just such a middling and frankly just boring rom-com anime that brings absolutely nothing to the table.

The most fun thing about this show was that fact that Gintoki and Kagura's voice actor are coincidentally caretaker and child in similar roles. That's about it. I'd actually go ahead and say that the characters are the least of this shows problems. The show is host to many typical rom-com tropes, such as a love triangle, dense protagonist(s), and comedic side characters. And actually, the side characters --residents of Astro ...
