Synopsis
Ikuhara Takeya is a high school student living a normal life. He is not interested in the commotion around a UFO filled with beautiful alien females that crashed on earth a year ago. The aliens, known as DearS, are deciding to take permanent residence on earth. What no one knows is that these aliens are a slave species whose sole purpose is to serve and please their masters. One day, Takeya spots a person shivering behind some bushes. This person, Ren, is one of the DearS, and after being saved by Takeya she chooses him as her master. Takeya, who doesn't know about the master-slave relationship of DearS, tries to teach Ren the normal lifestyle of the people on earth, though he constantly fears that Ren is an evil alien who's trying to brainwash him. Ren, however, isn't like other DearS. She is in fact malfunctioning and is being tracked down by their leader. Meanwhile, Takeya begins to learn more about DearS, and a mythical DearS relationship called “Gift” begins to develop between them.

Editor's Review
“DearS” is an anime series that offers a unique blend of comedy, romance, and sci-fi. The series revolves around the titular character, DearS, who are aliens that crash-landed off the shores of Kasai. Because no one could fix their ship, the Japanese Government decided to bestow upon them the designation “DearS” and make them into Japanese citizens, teaching them the language, customs, and culture of Japan. However, in order for them to become more familiar with human society, a home-stay program has been enacted to allow them to mingle with other humans.
The series is characterized by its intriguing plot and a large cast of fun characters. Each episode presents a new challenge for the DearS, keeping viewers engaged and entertained. The series is also praised for its comedic elements, with jokes and puns that are easy to understand and often result in laugh-out-loud moments.
One of the most compelling aspects of “DearS” is its exploration of everyday life. The series allows its characters to explore and understand themselves without always resorting to stand-up comedy. This results in a series that is kinder, more caring, and a bit more peaceful.
However, “DearS” is not without its flaws. Some viewers may find the series’ pacing to be uneven. Additionally, the series can be a bit rough around the edges, particularly in its early episodes.
Despite these minor shortcomings, “DearS” remains a standout series. Its unique premise, engaging characters, and complex plot make it a must-watch for any anime fan. Whether you’re a longtime fan of the genre or a newcomer, “DearS” is sure to provide an enjoyable and memorable viewing experience.
