Review:
This was sort of a filler anime for me while I was trying to find another anime. I basically watched it in a day. The episodes fly by and each, as with most short animes, had interesting bits sprinkled in. I didn't particularly like nor hate this anime, it was sort of just blah for me. The ending which would normally be sad didn't touch me as much as say .... Fullmoon wo Shagishite, but it did make me feel a little sad.
I actually was not a big fan of the animation, come to think of it. For some reason it seemed scary to me. The actual plot line, they boy possessing a girl, was actually quite funny and a very good idea, but her actual day to day life wasn't terribly interesting to me, and sometimes it seemed as it was repeating the same thing over and over again.
I would put this under comedy for sure, but it was also pretty dramatic at some parts. If you're looking for a quick anime that won't totally absorb you, than this is probably a good one for you.
Must Watch Episodes:
I actually did have a list at one point, but I lost it! *tears* There were a couple episodes in there that I quite liked, sorry I can't share them with you!
Rating:
I would give it 3 out of 5 stars. * * *
