Alice just got to Tokyo from the county side, and is suffocated by overpopulation, pollution and the stressful life. She was always attentive to nature and, for some reason, nature always somehow favored her. While dealing with her abusive little neighbor Rin, Alice ends up in a strange talk with her schoolmates Issei and Jinpachi: They claim to have the exact same dream ever since grade school, where they were aliens on a moon base with the role to monitor Earth's development. To much Alice's surprise, she ends up having the same dream as one of said moon base crew of 7. Pacing While most of the focus is at Alice and her schoolmates’ quest for the remaining crewmembers, there is a fair deal of focus between her and her neighbor Rin, who despite being 6 years younger, falls in love with her. While touching slightly on some environmentalist themes, Please Save my Earth ends up being more about romance, drama and sci-fi than anything else, and eventually the character interactions and their growth into how their situation affects their lives and relationships are the centerpiece of what could be called an epic adventure. Conclusion Unfortunately the title lacks playtime to further explain each character's unique past and motivation, and the last episode somehow rushes into the closure in such a way some viewers might not get it, and truth be told, some might get disappointed (read out essay). Yet, the end is very fitting to the title's proposal, and as long those deluded that Please Save my Earth is about strong aliens with EPS (mind power) fighting keep their hopes down and understand this is more an emotional title focusing on what's important and themes such as life and death, love and hate, one should be safe to enjoy this title to the fullest. ![]() Staff & Crew

Before one labels a history as cliché, predictable or beaten, think about this: "What really matters is life and how you live it, not the predictability of Death"
