I thought the original was okay. The art wasn't much and it was absolutely confusing. Still, a great story. The OVA was even more confusing, with the exception of the final. But when the time came for a new season, it got better. Story's a nine. It has loads of clichés, (Magical Girl, Guy Can't Confess, Girl From Outer Space, to name a few), but this comedy-ecchi, which also has a censored version, is very creative. Art gets an eight. It takes anime's animation pattern to another level, with sweatdrops and eye whites everywhere. My favorite part is episode 6 act 2, when Run has learned Kyouko's secret. It just makes me crack up. Anyway, sound gets a seven. This anime, which doesn't have a dub, has little to no sound effects, but the voicing is very good, sounding quite realistic to their character, especially Yami's, Yui's, Ringo's (Ringo is female), and Riko's. Character takes a nine for aforementioned creativity. It just makes you think, "Who came up with this stuff?" In my opinion, the best character might be Celine, the headdress-wearing stepdaughter of Rito who has a little secret. The ecchi adds to the enjoyment, as you just can't help but let out your inner perv and wait for a girl to drop her clothes. Maybe it's just me. Anyway, enjoyment takes a nine, with a nice mix of comedy and ecchi, with a bit of romance tossed in for an interesting mix. Overall, I give this an eight, so it's one to definitely check out.
