Final Approach



Mizuhara Ryo is an Ordinary High School Student, happily living alone with his younger sister Akane... until one day a mysterious girl in jet-powered parachute crashes through their window. The beautiful Masuda Shizuka introduces herself as Ryo's new fiancé, selected by a supercomputer under a secret, experimental government project to address the declining birthrate. Between Shizuka's self-defense instincts and her Men in Black army, Ryo doesn't have a choice.

Cue wacky romantic comedy hijinks as Shizuka does her best to integrate herself into Ryo's life and win his heart.

Adapted from a Princess Soft Visual Novel, it consists of 13 half-length episodes which aired alongside W~Wish (also from Princess Soft) during the "Princess Hour."


 * BFG: Shizuka's Light Antitank Weapon.
 * Bi the Way: Miki. Wouldn't mind sharing body heat with Emiho and certainly wouldn't mind a relationship with Ryo.
 * Bishonen: Haruki "Haru" Murasaki, the cafe owner. According to him, his job is to sit in the cafe and look pretty to attract Fangirls customers. For this reason, he keeps the fact that he's dating the waitress Yurika a secret.
 * Ryo, simply because of the story's cosmetic standard.
 * Bishoujo: Design aesthetic used for Akane, Emiho, Miki, Shizuka and all the other schoolgirls.
 * Brother-Sister Incest: Nothing physical happens, but Ryo and Akane are WAY too close, although it's generally played for laughs. When the girls of the series competed to see who'd get to play the role of Ryo's bride, Akane insisted on taking part too.
