Title (English) Tokimeki Tonight

Title (Japanese) Tokimeki Tonight

Advertising
Fantasy Novel

Notes English name: Heart Beating Tonight
From a manga by IKENO Koi, published in Ribbon magazine.

Classification shoujo

Synopsis A high school romance/comedy series about a girl, Ranze, with more than the "usual" teen problems - she is really from the "monster" world. Ranze's mother is a werewolf and her father is a vampire. Ranze also has "powers" - she can temporarily turn into a duplicate of whatever or whomever she bites. ( She returns to her self by sneezing. )

Review I love Ranze's escapades as she chases after a handsome and athletic classmate while trying not to give herself away nor to let her parents know that she is in love with a human. Rating after 10 episodes - A
(Dave Baryani)
I thought this was average material overall - little of distinction, and some of the plotting is thin even for a light comedy series. For instance, when Ranze's father is instructed to go out and find an unknown boy with a particular hidden birthmark, he finds him in the next scene. On the other hand, I found the "medical examination" scene - near the beginning of the series - extremely funny.
Designs are typical of 1980's anime.
Note that the fansub version, possibly lifted from a DVD, packages the series in 48-min sections. [GC]
The standard handsome but cool classmate she's crazy about and the standard rich family ojousama rival. (CSP)
A lot of laughs although artwork is not the best. You will probably love the manga more, which is a much longer story. (CSP)
