Hotto Supotto

The story starts with a single mother who works at a decent hotel with her co-workers one of which she didn't know at the time was an alien or half alien since his mother was human. So after almost getting hit by a truck that is when she knew of takahashi's powers and secret. She then enlisted him to do menial things for her to make her and her friends life a little easier. Towards the end of this series it is discovered that the hotel is being sold and the one that would be most affected would be their alien friend. My rating of an 8 reflects that so if there is a second season where the outcome of the hotel is settled and what happens to the alien is revealed then I will come back to adjust my rating. One thing I would appreciate it if this website not alter my review except for grammar if I misspell something. I will be awaiting a second season for a conclusive ending and to adjust my rating accordingly.

I know this sounds silly, but this show is almost like a better. Version of Seinfeld. Seinfeld has much more perversion and corruption, but this group of people similar to the characters on Seinfeld in age, and just doing silly stuff, having silly conversations, with the silly personality characteristics of each character. It's a better and more healthy replacement.

I don't really have much to say so I don't know that I'll be able to write enough to reach the required minimum. That said if it kind of stayed like the way it's been the eight episodes so far I think I could watch a lot more. It's so low key but at the same time funny and in this interesting way so "on point". I also wonder if the way the dialogue has this funny charming melodious quality sounds as striking to people who speak Japanese as it does to my ear ? Okay now I'm just filling up space. I like it. I like that it just seems so kind of intimate in the way that it does to me and I hope that there will be more at least for awhile. It's been awhile since I wrote my review, maybe I've seen three or four more episodes, and even if it would probably be undesirable for the actors I just want to say that I don't want it to ever end and now when I watch new episodes I'm filled with the bittersweet awareness that with each new one the last one draws closer. "We were wearing the same jacket. So I wanted the conversation to end soon." Tarantino eat your heart out . . ..

Deadpan comedy and the juxtaposition between mundane every day life and a half alien helping out results in a wonderful storyline of human interactions. The dialogues are funny, the plot surreal and refreshing. This is not your typically alien sci-fi. No breathtaking action or saving the earth. The subject of each episode is much smaller, much more mundane, which makes it mundane and human. In particular the way in which each character reacts to the revelation there's an alien sitting at the table is brilliant. It takes a story about aliens to give us a very real and fun story about humans.

I'm hoping for a season 2.

Well, after two episodes, I'm hooked. It really is just a lot of very mundane conversations between three friends and occasionally an alien who's actually just half alien. Not too much happens and yet it's very funny. The cast is great, almost mumbling their lines sometimes. The vast majority of episode 2 Took Pl. At a table at a diner. The writing to be that funny with Monday dialogue between friends is genius. They're so good. It's almost a contest of under acting. They're going to use a colleagues, fairly minor superpower to solve everyday problems. So if that sounds appealing, you should watch it.
