Story (5): The story was pretty basic and didn't really go anywhere by the last episode. The adventures Narue and Kasu had we're entertaining, but that's literally it. The episodes felt like filler and didn't follow the story synopsis very much. The adventure part yes, and the "fighting space invaders and androids" for like 2 or 3 episodes. The rest of them were just random episodes of them just doing different things.
Art/Animation (7): For it's time this was pretty good. I like the colors, and animation was decent! I will say that the characters designs were pretty generic though.
Sound: (7): I enjoyed the ambient piano soundtrack through the series. The OP and ED were solid aswell.
Character: (5): These characters aren't very interesting unfortunately. They get the job done i gues…

"Don't judge a book by it's cover" That's what we are all told, There are times where this advice is useful like watching Madoka, Gakkou Garashi, or even Yurikuma Arashi based on the openings alone. But for every action there is an equal/opposite reaction and that is the casw with me. I always have the luck of watching a show with a great opening but the actual show itself is soooooooo bad. This is one case. I will try to make this review as short as possible
Narue no Sekai(the World of Narue) is pretty much Onegai Teacher but it's not as cringey. There is guy named Densuke i mean, Kazuto and she meets the grown up version of Chiyo chan from Azumanga Daioh who was actually an alien the whole time and changed her name to Narue.And this is a story that is about love, at least you think it i…

This one's a bit of a mixed bag for me. World of Narue seemingly mixes around sci-fi, romantic comedy and slice-of-life in its focus on our female alien lead Narue who gets a human boyfriend named Kazuto as they try maintaining a normal relationship despite Narue's alien origins leading to sometimes hostile, sometimes bizarre situations. There are some aspects of its storytelling that aren't executed well such as its implementation of action with the two incidents with alien ninjas and the sudden developments that lead Narue and Kazuto into becoming a couple.
On the plus side though, the series does offer a decent amount of depth and development with its characters and premise as we do get a sense of how complicated Narue's life is with her alien origins and how her father decided to wind…

There are good shows, there are bad shows, and there are shows that leave no real lasting impression. The World of Narue (or Narue no Sekai) fits squarely into the third category. This somewhat pleasant sci-fi romantic comedy manages to retread overused material without being offensive. It is also so pedestrian that it fails to be memorable.
Right from the get-go, the show proves to be completely unambitious. The story follows the relationship of Kazuto Iizuki and Narue Nanase. Events unfold very typically: boy meets girl, boy likes girl, girl turns out to be an alien (weird so call such an event typical, but in anime, it is). What follows is a string of misadventures and shenanigans that's only focus is to put the couple in weird situations. Often these situations will somehow end up sho…

:)Hi, This Story, There's a lot of random story in this ep of Narue no Seka. This isn’t to say that the characters don’t develop.
There’s a chapter with Narue’s sister Kanaka making friends with Hajime, a bizarre story where Kazuto turns into a cat (and travels in time), and a cosplay episode. They even manage to fit two beach episodes in! Well, a beach and a pool episode, It had little comedy, romance, this anime more about sci-fi.
The last Ep was yes bad.

I watched the fansubs from AnimeJunkies and ANBU, here's thanks to them b4 I start my review.
Synopsis: This is a story of Narue, a half-alien living in human society. She finds a boyfriend and have various encounters with both human culture and alien elements.
Story:8
A very unique story. This series concentrates on mainly trans-species/planetary love and slice of life and school life. This is in contrast to DearS and Chobits, where the non-human knows nothing and act blur, needing a human guy to teach em stuff while they act cute. Narue and her companions from space seem to have blended well into human culture (a little too well in fact).
The story is quite focused on romance, and have about 3 pairs of couples included, instead of the usual 1. All 3 are not human-human relationships a…

One of the reasons why anime has become jaded and bland is the same reason series like this anime get released. It’s not so bad to have anime clichés in your anime, it’s how you use them. This series uses them in the most boring manner imaginable.
The anime plot is pretty basic. Girl saves boy, girl is alien, girl and guy get in to wacky adventures, guy wants to pork said alien. Shocker, the boy is a fucking otaku and the girl is a walking doormat. Narue is the alien and Kazuto is the bitch, I mean boy. There are no plot twists and from there it turns into a slice of life. There isn't much sci-fi going on despite its premise. If I had to compare this story to any other anime it would be Oh! My Goddess. The girl is a reason why the I’m not completely opposed to the feminist movement. She’s…

I recently purchased the collector's boxset of this for a very good price, having not seen a single episode before. I was able to get through all 12 eps in a day; for someone who can barely stand five eps of anime per day sometimes...well, that says something I guess. Now, let's get down to it.
Story 6/10
Nothing really new here. The World of Narue is, at first glance, a rather bland romantic, high-school comedy involving 14-year olds. The difference here lies in simple execution; each episode brings something new, but adds a nice degree of continuity to the story as a whole. As it develops, Kazuto and Narue have to deal with a lot of obstacles as a new couple; the biggest of which is Narue's status as an alien. As in any rom-com, they meet new friends, learn new lessons, share new experi…
