DearS is a captivating sci-fi romantic comedy anime series that was broadcasted on Chiba TV from 2004 to 2005. It exposes the audience to an enticing universe that artfully folds traditional elements of anime like high school life, romance and comedy, into an intriguing scenario involving cohabitation with otherworldly beings.

The plot is set in motion when a UFO carrying an alien human-like species known as 'DearS' accidentally crash-lands on Earth. The DearS are a group of breathtakingly beautiful, seemingly perfect humanoid slaves who are seeking refuge and integration into human society. Deemed harmless and friendly by world leaders, the DearS are granted refugee status and are henceforth destined to assimilate into Japanese society.

The central character of this gripping series is a high school student named Takeya Ikuhara. Takeya is a misanthropic young man who keeps his distance from the assimilated, obsequious DearS population fearing they might influence human culture and society in unknown ways. Fate, however, had a different plan for him. Our protagonist’s life takes a dramatic turn when one day, on his way home, he comes across a DearS girl named Ren, suffering from hunger on the side of the street. Overcome with compassion, Takeya aids her, subsequently becoming her ‘master’, much to his dismay.

Ren is not like other DearS: she is a 'zero-number', indicating she is defective and lacks the obedience common to her species. Yet, despite her shortcomings, Ren is loyal to her newfound ‘master,’ and is determined to serve him faithfully. She exudes innocence and simplicity, and throughout the series, viewers witness her attempts to learn the ways of Earth and its inhabitants which often lead to hilarious and awkward situations.

The show skillfully weaves together themes like xenophobia, humanity, coming-of-age, and the all-encompassing power of friendship and love. It also boldly presents elements of master-servant dynamics, challenging societal norms and expectations. Adorned with a piece of the fantasy trope, DearS uses constant humor and deep characters, each possessing unique traits and personalities that add depth to the storyline and engage the audience.

DearS boasts a lively setting, from the urban streets and schoolyard to Takeya's cozy apartment, they all exude a warm, almost nostalgic feeling similar to other slice-of-life anime. This comes contrasted with the sophisticated design of the DearS who are the epitome of unearthly beauty, adding an ethereal touch to the series.

The anime can be seen as a blend of genres, a creative concoction of sci-fi, romance, comedy, and 'harem', offering something for all types of viewers. Despite having multiple themes running parallelly, the core narrative draws heavily from the relationship established between Takeya and Ren. Their interactions oscillate between hilarious, confusing, exasperating, and touching, thereby serving as a robust emotional underpinning which pulls viewers in and keeps them hooked.

The show also features a host of other fascinating characters, such as Neneko Izumi, Takeya's childhood friend and classmate who has a deep knowledge of the DearS and Miu, another DearS who gets introduced later in the series, further complicate the relations and dynamics of the story.

The animation style of DearS is replete with bright colors, detailed backgrounds, and elaborate character designs which contribute to the overall allure of the show. The series also encompasses an engaging opening and ending theme music that sets the mood for the captivating narrative that lies in store for the audience.

In summary, DearS is a fascinating journey into a world where the boundaries between the human and the alien blur, and the real struggle lies not in cohabitation but acceptance. It’s an intriguing mix of sci-fi settings, high-school dynamics, comedic touches, and unexpected romantic plots making it a truly enjoyable experience for anyone who appreciates character-driven narratives and exploratory themes.

DearS is a series categorized as a canceled/ended. Spanning 1 seasons with a total of 13 episodes, the show debuted on 2004. The series has earned a moderate reviews from both critics and viewers. The IMDb score stands at 6.2.
