Hi. If you don't know World of Narue, I'll tell you. It is about a 14 year old guy who is an otaku and doesn't have a girlfriend and meets this cute girl-next-door who turns out to be an alien.............wait. Why am I telling you this when you could find it in this site. Oh well.

Anyway, I would like to know your thoughts.

I bought the test-drive DVD with episode 1 and liked it a lot, especially the pantsu Embarassed I was going to get the box set, but now I'm not so sure. I guess this is a difficult one, but without giving anything away, can you say why you thought the ending sucked?

It ends with out concluding anything, much like kare kano. It's still worth watching, just check out the manga for some closure (if there is a manga Shocked ). If you like love hina, onigai teacher, or aything like that, you will like world of narue.

Yes, there is a World of Narue manga. In fact, it's one of the few manga titles that I'm collecting. It's a pretty good read. I haven't seen the entire anime series yet, but I do have the test drive DVD and it looks pretty nice. I'll probably watch the remainder of the series sometime later this year.

The show seems rather unpopular which is odd since it does seem to have a very otkau oriented appeal to it. Not quite my cup of tea, although I've not read the manga. Was the Fireworks episode the last episode? That was the last episode I saw, and I just assumed that there were more.
BTW, I'm just surprised that the Eva vs. RahXephon, Gasaraki vs. FMP, etc., type thread hasn't started between Narue and Tenchi.

Yea that’s the last episode; I thought there was more too. Thus the reason why I thought the ending was very inconclusive.

I just finished watching the fourth episode of World of Narue and I am enjoying the series so far. The two main characters are very appealing and I found that the male lead, Kazuto, was very similar to myself. I expected this series to be "average" according to many people, but so far it is better than I expected.

Also, everyone please use spoiler tags. I get very annoyed if I see any mention of the ending of a particular series, such as if it was a good or bad ending. I don't know if that annoys other people as well, but it really annoys me.

I've seen about half the series of World of Narue it's a very good series. Yagi and Kanaka are probably my favorite characters, Also Narue reminds me of Haruka from Pokemon.

Is it because Narue and Haruka both share the same voice actress for the english dub?
