For most parts, I find this to be a cute slice of life anime with cute girls.

There's a bunch of weird gimmicks thrown together with the different cast though. Seems this anime is also somewhat self aware of itself. I haven't read the manga before so not sure what else to expect. Seems weirdly amusing. I guess we'll see a lot of UFOS in this show??

This reminds me so much of Joshikousei no Mudazukai, but that strange things happen in this show.

The loli "innocent and naive" alien Rikka; the maidenly ninja Chiyo; the D-class psychic Sekine; and the crossdresser Tsubasa (real name Tsuyoshi), these 4 girls have secrets they absolutely can't tell. Of the 4 girls, only Sekine can tell them apart (except the trap Tsubasa), and she's the only person who's well aware of what's going on.

Could see this as a competition between this and Pop Team Epic though. This is weirdly fun...?

A little strange show as I expected, but in a good way. Nothing negative to say about the first episode.

Pretty interesting characters.

The period situation with an alien and a boy not getting it and an esper listening was pretty funny.

The moment I saw the UFO was "docking" at the school, I knew that this wouldn't be a normal anime.

Nice start. It's been a while since we had a good all girl crazy school comedy ala Asobi Asobase or Joshikousei no Mudazukai.

And lol, Tsubasa looked way too good in a bikini(opening) to be a boy.

This is an interesting anime, 4 people and they all have 4 secrets but only Sekine knows their secrets (apart from Tsubasa because he's a guy), it has its own charm to it and it had me giggling, yeah it'll be interesting to see how this will go.

I really wasn't expecting this to be interesting.

I feel sorry for Tsubasa. A Johnny's obssessed sister at home and beyond odd friends at school. Aside from being a boy that doesn't like cross dressing, he's the only normal one.

As far as reading a synopsis and looking at a piece of clumsy drawing of the source material, I didn't expect anything of this show. But it turned out the show was a funny one. It's a good idea to reduce annoying narration by introducing a telepath.

Where did this one come from? The story is fun - such an absurd mix of semi-secret roles within a cracking veneer of a normal school setting.
I had to rewatch to get the story as it moved a bit quick for my brain, and was impressed with the music on the second listen. The piano and violin (?) work in the "fart" segment reminded me of romantic-era lieder and the sort of interpretive piano accompaniment to silent movies, and the slide into the spaghetti-western (Tarantino-esque) flavor when the alien had her pals lined-up against the wall was fabulous.
This one is absolutely on my watchlist.

It was ok, a bit manic but also an interesting premise.

I like Abuto as the narrator, I didn't realise he had been voicing since the mid 80s but he has the most unique male voice.

Cute, absurd, weird, ridiculous and peppered with laugh out loud moments. I don't know why I picked this up but I am kinda glad I did. Too early to call still, but will definitely give it a few more episodes.

That was a good first episode. Got a good laugh out of it. The chlorine gas joke caught me off guard I burst out lmao.

So:
-an alien
-a ninja
-a crossdresser
-a mind reader

Commencing 3 episode rule.

Edit: how is he a boy. Unless that's his sister. But I like the idea that it is him.

I think it was pretty funny and I like the characters, but the art style feels kinda bland and generic, throws me off a bit. Maybe if it was under a different studio that would exaggerate the funny parts a bit it'd be better

This is already better than Spy x Family in how they portray a psychic. Even more funnier too.
