I've got to admit, when I watched the first few episodes of Mysterious Girlfriend X, I wondered whether or not this series was serious or just self-parody. I mean, think about the premise...a guy is addicted to a girl's drool for crying out loud. But there are many things to love about this series. The character designs (especially Urabe's) evoke a more '90s feel, with their distinctive hair and shading, more so than the typical 21st-century moe thing. The series is extremely kinky [if that's your thing] without embracing traditional ecchi elements, and is a relatively mature take on/metaphor for teenage exploration of sexuality. Not to mention, through good and bad times, the leads and supporting characters just have great chemistry in general. OP and ED are also upbeat and jazzy, and don't feel like the typical sugary J-pop. Don't be grossed out by the description, this is definitely a series worth your full attention!
Lol, wut?! A mysteriously amazing series
