Manga spotlight: To Love-Ru
Honestly, I loved the anime series. The anime had an overall story arc, but most of the episodes were mostly one-shots that focused on many of the zany (and often sexy) side characters on the show. However, that didn’t detract from the show much. If you liked the anime, then you’ll like the manga too.
To Love-Ru is an unpretentious ecchi harem comedy. What I mean by unpretentious is that it never pretends to be more than what it is: light hearted comedy with some rather hilarious ecchi thrown in. The plot, what there is of it, involves Rito, the male protagonist finding himself living with a lovely and sexy alien, Lala. Lala is running away home and ends up as a freeloader in Rito’s home. Conveniently, Rito only lives with his sister, Mikan, who accepts Lala right away, much to Rito’s dismay. Read more
