Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na Crescent Love

Man, i love chibi stuff, especially when they hit me suddenly this way. It rocks.

Ok, I just watched this series yesterday night just before I fell asleep. To be honest, I have been psycho-ed by Bjorn of FFF’s fame (Fap fap Feena) and he actually hyped up the show for me. Did the show fail me? It did not. Did it impress me though? No, it didn’t as well. Hence, it is currently on the balance whether I will blog it again or not. However, the amount of sudden chibi scenes did amuse me quite a bit and I like the distant yet warm feeling that Feena gives. I can understand now why Bjorn loves her so much.
She kinda deserves the attention. A certain green-haired gal also captured my attention immediately!
Episode summary

Note: Check the site for the name of the characters. There are too many “main characters”.
So the story starts with the description of a war between the humans on Earth and the humans in Sphere Kingdom (moon). As both sides destroyed each other to a total mess, travelling between the two planets become restricted. That is roughly where the story starts, where we get transfered to the scene of a school, where Tatsuya and Natsuki are studying. As the lesson on the moon ended, Natsuki was still sleeping and she did not wake up until she heard Tatsuya saying “Welcome, customer” and she shot up saying things that a waitress will do.
They then moved off to the restaurant where the both of them were working, while they meet up with Mai, Tatsuya’s younger sister. Tatsuya seemed to have a fetish of pinching the nose of her younger sister, as they met up with Midori, a cute looking and excited green-haired gal (YES, SOMETHING GOOD!). They then talked a little before they went over to the restaurant and the elder sister of Tatsuya mentioned that they would have dinner at the restaurant. They then started to work and ended their work at around 8 pm.
As Tatsuya went back home, he was greeted by a meido Mia and he went off, thinking he got the wrong house. In fact, Mia was a servant of Feena, who had came down for a homestay on the moon as a way of good gesture. Feena is the princess of Sphere kingdom and had met up with Tatsuya when Tatsuya was young. That was why Tatsuya had unconsciously pinched the nose of Feena, and the three family members went berserk after realizing what they did to a princess. The princess simply smiled and said it was all right.
After which, they went to the restaurant, only to have more crazy antics, especially Natsuki and her brother Jin who was so keen on pairing Natsuki and Tatsuya together. They had a good meal, only for a man that appeared under Feena’s dress to interrupt. He was some teacher that Feena’s father trusted to be her guardian here on Earth. With that news, we realized that Feena would be going to the same school with Tatsuya and Natsuki…
In the distance, a blonde young girl with magician robes looked at the merry group in teh restaurant, levitating in the air silently.

Thoughts

To be honest, the first episode did not impress me much. I probably will define this series as a romance genre with Feena X Tatsuya and Natsuki x Tatsuya (of course, Feena X Natsuki X Midori is always welcome). In a way, I am still curious and will give this show 2-3 more episodes to drag me in, since it is only well 12 episodes. Unless it suffers a complete meltdown, I feel that there is some good stuff inside this series that will work.
I found the OP/ED to be decent, if not impressive. There is nothing really wow with the first episode, without that WOW feeling I got from Red garden (that show captures your attention immediately). Feena, other than the green haired gal that is called Midori, seems to probably be the main reason why I will be watching this show. So yea, next episode seems to deal with Feena going to the school of Tatsuya and a good student to boot.
That’s it, and leaving you with a few more screenshots…

[...] And next up is a must watch for FFF members such as myself. Feel the Feena love!!! Looks like recent influence o the FFF is spreading like wildfire in #AnimeNano and some people actually watched it after I kept spreading it around. Of course I love the other girls but Feena is my top pick! [...]
[...] Yes, I have succumbed to the temptations and now become a member of the Fap Fap Feena club, literally falling in love on her, and how more appropriate than to watch this show on the Mid-Autumn Festival as well. I was suprised with the first 5 minutes though, the Oedipus War recap thingy kinda felt like one of Gundam SEED Destiny’s flashback episodes, LOL. [...]
As I myself have a fetish for- I mean, am a fan of green haired anime girls(usually), Midori has my interests also. She better get some coverage in this series! But really, everyone’s so cute. Feena~ Natsuki~ Mai makes the first sister character I’ve liked in a harem anime~ Even the lead male looks better than most male leads(in a harem anime).
