Koisuru Asteroid

A story that, in beginning, is very relaxing and, in the same time, mild dramatic content. It's my first impression that I have about Koisuru Asteroid. Storys that talk about characters united by same thing like a hobbie of a familiar event, likes as Kimi No Na Wa, always attract me, and was that happen with this anime. The art color are, impressionaly, vivid and bright and are extremaçy rare on anime series art tecnics, because this type of art is more used in anime movies. If you watch Koisuru Asteroid in a dark room, you can have headache due of bright and vivid colores. We know the work is about two childrens in a camp that do a promisses of "found his own star" and after found each other on college. Therefore, exist a manner in artistic production to reproduce fells like nostalgia, tranquily and chilbourhood when it mix the vivid colores of animation with the light and childlike traits of the characters. In other words, they try to pass the anime mensage in animation. The characters are adolescents but they are similiar to childrens due draws style that, in mangá, is used to make kids, like short stature and small breasts (in girls). Koisuru Asteroid doesn't show adolescence like studyin, fun, sex or other themes that are showed with stereotype in ocidental culture industry (mainly in romantic comedies of Hollywood), but like as a continuation of chilhood dreams and ambitions. However, in same time the anime art surprised me, the story and the pessoal and intelectual development of characters was very bad. The geoscience club is a group of stereotypes of anime characters (the protagonist so cheerful and positive that it sounds something unnatural and irritating like mira is impossible to found her on real life, or, if she can be founded, she will be very irritant). However, the worst thing about Koisuru Asteroid is the way that the story is happened: In some episodes, the characters prefer only talk about astronomy or geology than participate in the screenplay). Koisuru Asteroid is similiar to an scientific educative cartoons for children. I was very unhappy because of an anime that have a nice art but with a bad story.

I have no idea why the rating on this show is that low. It's a wholesome show about friends learning about the stars and earth together! And it's not even poorly done at all! I think slice of life gets a bad rep just because it isn't action packed, and lower stakes and less dramatic slice of life like non non biyori, is the order a rabbit, yuru yuri, and yuru camp gets an even worse rep because people think it's boring. And if you are a shounen fanboy, you probably won't like this, but I really enjoyed it. For some reason, I just can't resist moe slice of life, even if it's bad (this show is not bad though).

This show was fun, sometimes funny, wholesome, heartwarming, educational, relaxing, and just a genuinely good time. The music, visuals, story and characters aren't the best you'll ever see, but there isn't one aspect of this show that is bad in any way. This isn't close to being on par with a superstar moe slice of life show show like k-on (which is my favorite anime period), but in my opinion there is nothing wrong with it and I think that you should give it a try.

When Mira was a young girl she met a boy named Ao. They stargaze together and Mira learns that she shares her name with an asteroid; she states that one day they will find their own asteroid and name it after Ao. They don't meet again for many years; Mira is at high school and joins the Earth sciences Club... a club formed after the Astronomy Club and Geology Club were combined. Here she meets a girl named Ao... who turns out to be the 'boy' she met before. Reunited they determine to renew their search for an asteroid. Over the course of the series they do various astronomy things as well as taking an interest in the geology side of the club.

There are many anime series about school girls doing various activities in an after school club; some are better than others. I'd say this is one of the good ones. The characters are likable and their activities are genuinely interesting. Of course it helps that I find both astronomy and geology fascinating at a very basic level. The animation is good, as are the character designs. Overall I'd certainly recommend this series... if you want to discover whether they find their asteroid you'll certainly need to watch.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

You could simply describe this as cute girls doing science-y things, but there is a lot more going on than that in this anime. There is a long-standing relationship between two of the protagonists, Ao and Mira, who are on a quest to find an asteroid in the night sky, part of an earth sciences club with a cast of other interesting characters. I know this might be everyone's cup of tea, but I really enjoy it. I think Scientilaa sums this up a lot better than I can.
