Synopsis |
An intriguing science fantasy in which an elementary school girl is sent on holiday (by seaplane) to her grandma's on a remote island. There is a prologue in which a fighter plane chases a bony looking UFO - which probably confuses naive readers into thinking it belongs with another story, but trust me, it all falls into place by episode #3. In episode #1 Shina goes swiming and sees something odd on the sea-bed.

Review |
The drawings of the young girl are charming and alone are enough reason for following this story, and the alien contact story (if that's what it is...) looks intriguing. (GC) |
