My surprise favourite of the season :)

Yeah, this is just - hilarious!!! Every episode has made me laugh out loud at some point.

It's about a shockingly clingy housewife... she lives for her ふみ君; every waking moment is spent adoring him. But he, obviously, feels a bit suffocated by it all, and doesn't pay much attention to her. Anyway, she realises she has to change, and ends up becoming a detective in her spare time and taking on different cases, becoming more independant, and trying to save her ふみ君 from affairs and stuff.

It's sweet, and funny, and i like the theme tune ;)

The language is very easy, as there are no specialised words, and 芹那's character is quite naive and simple. The only slightly more difficult parts are when ふみ君 is speaking to 芹那's dad while playing table tennis, but in general, this series should be good for beginners to learn from, or intermediates to watch comfortably.

EDIT: i revised the ranking to level 2 after watching to the end of the series, because the subplot becomes much larger, and there ends up being more corporate language and stuff. However, the main plot remains at level 1 the whole way through, i think... (though of course they're intertwined)
