Anime: Arakawa Under The Bridge
|
Kou Ichinomiya, heir to the prestigious Ichinomiya Company has only one mission in life: to not owe a favor to anyone. He's lived that way for 21 years. Until one day when, his pants hung up on top of a bridge, he ends up falling, with the bridge pillar, into the river down below. Nino, a girl who lives under the bridge, saves his life. Kou wants to pay her back, but Nino desires nothing except for a boyfriend; so Kou winds up living in strange community under the bridge with Nino, who also claims to be from Venus, now under the name of Recruit ("Ric" for short). Originally a manga by Hikaru Nakamura, an anime adaptation aired in the spring of 2010, animated by Studio Shaft. A second season, Arakawa Under the Bridge x Bridge (or Arakawa Under the Bridge x 2), aired in the fall of that year. Not to be confused with Hiromu Arakawa, creator of Fullmetal Alchemist, who presumably doesn't live under a bridge, though she may live in a nearby field...
