I hate comparing one anime to another but I couldn’t help thinking “Star Captor Sumomo” after looking at this image . I mean look at the image for God’s sake! Who wouldn’t get the CCS vibe? I mean the outfit, the stuffed animal, the staff. Not to mention that they’re collecting stars instead of cards. The only difference that I saw was that this is based off a pr0no game.

The story’s set-up is completely different than CCS though. Basically, this reject guy accidentely turns into a little sheep thanks to some weird guy. In order to turn back into a human, Sumomo has to retreive seven star drops because she is a chosen one. However, there are two obstacles for them that enable me to stop my brain from screaming “CCS!” and give it a chance. The first is that there’s some girl who’s out to stop Sumomo (and not help her secretly like Eriol). The second is that the guy (I forgot his name) can’t ever tell Sumomo his real human identity. This kinda sucks because they go to the same school and Sumomo has a crush on him.

This wasn’t a bad first episode actually. Or at least its decent enough for me to not drop it. A lot of it has to do with taste which is probably why I like it. There’s lots of pink, rainbows, sparkles, chibis, and cuteness crammed in here. Not exactly the best choice for most guys. Its entertaining and fun which makes it one of those good light anime to watch after a stressful day or something.

While the music went through one ear and came out the other, the animation is surprisingly well done. It’s very clean, consistent, and cutsey. There were quite a few chibi scenes that apparently derive from the game. While it doesn’t make anything humorous (which I think was its original intent), it does make everything cuter. Exactly what this show needs.

I like Nanatsurio Drops. Its fun, cute, and enjoyable. That doesn’t mean that everyone else will like it though. I’m pretty going to recommend this to anyone who is a female though if you’re a guy and you wanna try this out go ahead. So that’s all I have to say now. Also, I can now stop thinking of this show as Star Captor Sumomo and appreciate for what this is ^^.
