I never thought that it was possible to mix the genres science-fiction and slice-of-life but this show proved me wrong. Its a very intresting world they inhabit which I am looking forward to seeing explored more in the sequels.

It has a very calm and soothing tone overall, and the characters just enhances this feeling of bliss. The characters themselves are fairly enjoyable despite their tendency for repetitive one-liners. When it comes to the animation it shows some fairly impressive backgrounds every now and then, but the character models are a bit uninspiring. One thing I do have to give them credit for though, is that in a show with a main cast of only females, they have stayed clear of any fanservice(even in the hot springs episode, where it would have been very easy to take that route), which keeps it clean and enjoyable for all ages and not just the older(read hornier) folks. Overall a decent anime for when you just want to feel all warm and cozy inside :) Now I can only hope that the sequels improve in quality. ( show less)
