Most Lucky Star fans all expected to have a 2nd season, but is left with a Lucky Star spin-off. Is it more satisfying than having a 2nd season? Well.....let's see about that.

Story: The plot is nothing special since the series is very short having each episode to be around 4-5 min. It's just about the daily life between two sisters named Hinata and Hikage. Rate: 5/10

Characters: The two main characters are just the two sisters. We have the younger sister named Hikage who is mostly the mature one trying to tell her older sister to not spend lots of useless stuff. Then, we have the ... older sister named Hinata who is pretty much the main problem for having the whole family to have financial problems due to her habits of spending things. Rate: 6/10

Animation: The only thing I would give praise would definitely be the animation. I am really happy that they kept the Lucky Star animation style. You could probably tell that the style for the sisters does resembled other characters from the original Lucky Star series. Like Hikage who looked like Kagami and Hinata who looked like Miyuki. Rate: 8/10

Sound: Sine the series is soo short, there's not an OP song, but left with only an ED song. The ED song was really catchy since it talks about the two sisters being poor and poverty. It's not a memorable song, but a catchy one. Rate 7/10

Overall/Enjoyment: The Lucky Star spin-off series was actually ok, but is a bit enjoyable. It does have that Lucky Star feel to it, but since its really short I wished it would be a bit longer or just more episodes. Well, at least we have "another" Lucky Star series. For the Lucky Star fans, I would give it a watch since its a related Lucky Star series. Rate: 6/10

This anime is a typical slice of life series involving "cute girls doing cute things" which I highly enjoyed watching it. Since, I'm a sucker for watching these type of anime series.

~Story~
The story is about a Japanese girl named Shino who visited and stayed at Great Britain. She met an English girl named Alice and the two became fast friends. Years later, Alice came to Japan and attended the same high school with Shino. They are now closer than before along w/ their other friends.
8/10

~Characters~
The characters are mainly focused on these five girls: Ayaya, Karen, Shino, Alice, and Yoko. Mostly the main characters in this ... series would be Shino and Alice. The girls are really enjoyable and have a very good relationship with each other especially between Shino and Alice.
9/10

~Art~
The animation to this series is bright and colorful. It does give you the light-hearted feel of the animation. The character designs have the typical cutesy design to it. The animation can be related to A-Channel.
8/10

~Sound~
I really love the music in this series. The background music has a really nice cute melody which sound very light-hearted that gives a good tone to this series. The OP and ED are the best. I really like the OP (Jumping!! by Rhodanthe) better since its really cheery and happy. I do also like the ED (Your Voice by Rhodanthe) song, too.
9/10

~Overall~
This series is really enjoyable and nice to watch. The characters are entertaining, the relationship between these girls are good, and its one of those relaxing anime to watch. If you enjoy watching slice of life, or seeing "cute girls doing cute things together", or want to find a relaxing anime to watch, then I highly recommend this one. This goes for the people who enjoy watching K-On!, Lucky Star, A-Channel, etc.
Final Score: 8/10
