Introduction
After centuries of antagonism and misunderstanding, the Japanese finally welcome youkai into their community. In an attempt at species integration, normal children begin attending school with paranormal creatures who are quite humanoid. Shingo Ohashi finds himself developing feelings for Hatoko "Petoko" Fujimura, a half-youkai half-human girl whose powers are: uncontrollable cuteness to enchant those around her (similar to a low-power succubus), get stuck to any other person who touches her bare flesh (cured by her falling asleep), and the ability to disappear even at the molecular stage (which she can for the most part control).

An accidentally clever and sensitive anime.
The source material is your usual visual novel about choosing between different girls. Its setting is partly clever, partly ecchi nonsense when it comes to the main love interest's species. So from this, you'd expect yet another entry in the ever-growing list of trashy anime with big jiggling boobs and a male MC who's as insufferable as he's bland.
Yet, something happened. In this anime, the "choose the girl" aspect disappears very fast, and the "rivals" actually are friendly. Moreover, for whatever reason, nothing is explicitly romantic, and you may as well choose (like i do) to interpret all this as a very intense friendship. And the male MC isn't an insufferable asshole who makes edgy commentary (looking at you Bakemonogatari). Instead he's…

Petopeto-san... a short and quirky 13 episode series about the racial divide that's prevalent in a society with youkai (monsters) and ningen (humans). Think Kamichu! without the god, but with the same age of the characters dealing with everyday problems.
Animation: The budget for this anime wasn't very high, and it shows. Some panning here and there, and low framerates of some of the scenes make me dock 2 points off. It's not BAD, per se, but the animation could've been done a lot better. Episode 10-11 suffered a lapse in character design consistency, as all their faces look distorted. Great backgrounds though, and the last episode brought the animation up a notch.
Sound: Brilliant opening/ending combo. When I first heard the opening, it sounded very hoary, but it gradually sticks on to…
