Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko

What a beautifully wholesome story this is! I was worried that they might make this far too weird with the alien thing, but it was handled so very nicely. Makoto is a wonderful MC and I absolutely loved that Ryouko was put into daily life without a forced relationship. There is jealousy with Maekwan, but it was not overbearing and she handled it rationally rather than acting on emotions like you see in so many different places. It's so hard not to like every character here.

The kids were portrayed as kids their age. Makoto kept track of "adolescent points" to see how he changed or ... where he sat as part of an identity each day. It was able point that allowed the characters to connect to the watchers, particularly those are the same age. They were allowed to just be what they were supposed to be. There are only two really good friends to Makoto and that's it. Often shows load up on five and six and seven friends that are completely unnecessary.

While the visuals weren't beautiful overall, the night sky depictions were gorgeous. I just cannot believe how wonderfully this was done. You don't see gems like this very often.

Definitely take a look. This is better than what seems it could be from the outside.
