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.

Thoroughly enjoyed all the episodes of "The Hot Spot"! Superb ending !!! Alien and Time machine ;)

The stunning backdrop of Mt. Fuji adds a mesmerizing touch, making the series visually captivating. The story unfolds at a steady pace, with fascinating characters and brilliant cinematography keeping you engaged. The hotel and restaurant featured in the series are beautifully portrayed, adding charm to the setting-I'd love to visit them someday! The attention to detail, compelling performances, and immersive storytelling make this a must-watch. Simply loved it! Beautiful, interesting and Funny i must say, hope to see more episodes. Truly engaging story line!!!

A very interesting storyline idea about an alien living a regular life in a small town in Japan. That gets you started on the series.

In a few weeks, you realise the interesting storyline is only an "idea" you have told yourself !! You quickly realise the bunch of Director: Itaru Mizuno, Nobuyoshi Yamada, Kento Matsuda have done the very worst work ever in the history of TV series, creating the most boring program ever.

The story revolves around a half-alien man and 3 human women. All 4 living nondescript lives stuck in boring careers.

Each of the actors trying their best to convey dead pan emotions with their voices, face, body and in all other ways an actor conveys a story to the audience.

For 8 weeks now I have watched, hoping they would somehow made it better. Every week keep getting duped.

A soviet era documentary would be more refreshing.

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.

Endo Kiyomi lives in a tiny hotel at the base of Mount Fuji. She has an ordinary life and an ordinary job with a daily routine and the same friends since she can remember. Then one day, starting with an accident, her so ordinary life starts revealing itself to actually be more extraordinary than ordinary, while remaining relatable.

It quickly became one of my favourite series.

If you like slice of life type of series, and relating to every day life and humour I hightly recommend it.

If you are learning japanese and/or like japanese culture and humour, I highly recommand it as well.

(And I can bet the person who actually said "a soviet era documentary would be more refreshing" than Hot Spot has actually never watched a soviet era documentary or the full Hot Spot serie)
