12 episodes TV series + 1 episode OVA
It is a pretty good love story between two unlikely people... and for the supporting cast as well! With lots of comedy and slightly ecchi elements, it is more guys-oriented.
I love the OP so much (Shooting Star by KOTOKO) I bought an illegit OST copy (made in Taiwan)! At least I have the full version of the song!
The OVA / 13th episode is the most ecchi of all, with tons of fanservice as well as an "indecent" theme... which of course, is good...

Please Twins! (2003 - 2004)
12 episodes TV series + 1 episode OVA
Ever since childhood, Kamishiro Maiku did not remember much about it. Abandoned by his mother and grew up in an orphanage, the only thing Maiku has left from his mysterious past is a photograph of the house he lived in, himself and a girl playing in a small pool. When one day that same house was shown on the news about UFO sightings, Maiku decided to leave the orphanage and rent the house to live on his own, hoping to meet the other child in the photograph one day.
And that day comes. The only problem is, there are two girls instead of one! Both Miyafuji Miina and Onodera Karen show up, along with the same photo that Maiku has! So who is the real twin sister, and who is the stranger? Or are they all related?? While Maiku manages to earn enough money to support himself and pays the rent with his programming job, it will not be easy for him to support three people, along with school work. Not to mention that he now faces the problem of living under the same roof with two cute girls...
Well, it is interesting to play around the fact "are we related or not?!" dilemma. A good story indeed.
The OVA / 13th episode is true to the original, with Ichigo setting up everyone for a "memorable summer night" in the wild, and ended up with something else... of course, not as ecchi as the previous series.
The OP and EP is OK, but not as good, I will probably buy them later.
