Premise
This anime is an interpretation of Suu Minazuki’s Sora no Otoshimono (Heaven’s Lost Property) manga.

The plot focuses on Tomoki Sakurai, a typical middle school student who lives by the words “Peace is the #1 priority.” But, an odd girl comes to him in his sleep to request his assistance — except he is unable to recall what she looks like when he awakens. Later, his ordeal becomes even more complex at the moment an unidentified mysterious animal (UMA) drops from the clouds. We learn that the so-called “animal” is Ikaros, an angel.

Review
I’m impressed how Souichiro Hoshi can lend his vocal talent to greatly emotional, hate stirring male heros (Kira Yamato) along with the macho-ist (Keiichi Maebara). It’s my wish that he does not do the former since the plot shown in the preview is the average young gal waking up her buddy who is a little excited in the morning and branding him a sicko. That doesn’t conclude that the show will surely be lame, a few series could beat it out, however the probability is rather shallow (regardless, my intrigue reached its climax when I heard one installment was proven to be too scandalous for television).
