Oh Hai~!
Its your one and only Otaku-Chan here again, doing what I do best! Today we are going to step into the realms where romance and weird come together, spawning one of the strangest animation series that I have seen to date! Welcome to 'Mysterious Girlfriend X', otherwise known as 'Nazo No Kanoho Ekkusu'. Its is a fairly new animation series, only being adapted and released in 2012.
This series in particular is an absolute delight to watch and yet again, it's set in at school. It follows the Akira Tsubaki and the very mysterious Mikoto Urabe. Things begin quiet quickly where Tsubaki becomes ill to which Urabe, offers him her saliva! That's right! Her saliva to which is reluctant to try. Through a series of events, he becomes addicted to her saliva and from there the story progresses albeit in a fashion that made me really consider what an Otaku really was! Don't misunderstand, this series is hilarious to watch!
The characters are hilarious to watch and I found them very like-able. Akira Tsubaki is just your plain average joe until he becomes addicted to Urabe's drool. There's really nothing that stands out about him in particular. That is seriously where this series shines brightest! It opens a new can of weird and mysterious that is Urabe! She is highly dangerous and skilled at using scissors, which she stores in her panties. Apart from the fact that she carries scissor's in her panties, she's pretty much outstanding in everyway. She shows high athletic abilities able to move short distances in a blink of an eye! Now, the 'drool', which happens to be the main topic of series. It really does have weird powers, from sharing thoughts, feelings and even dreams which left me thinking 'What the ...!'. The characters are lovable in their own unique way and yet still somehow relatable! Though the series and characters don't really progress very much, so don't expect too much from this series besides a good laugh.
Overall, there really isn't too much to say about the series. I would say that this series is probably not everyone first impression of great anime but I think it is in its own right. It's originality is something that we don't see to often anymore so it is quiet refreshing! All I can say that its definitely not a series that you'd want to watch seriously, its really just for a laugh with some romance and fanservice thrown into the mix. So of those who haven't seen 'Mysterious Girlfriend X', I recommended that you drop whatever your doing and start watching it!
Visual - 7/10
Audio - 6.5/10
Star Rating - 3/5 stars
It has been a pleasure again to have reviewed this series for you all! Hope you all enjoyed it!
