She's the most mature of the bunch, and that doesn't mean she's acting above her age.

I know not all people can come from a good family, but this family made me invent a new word: "dysctional" ... dysfunctional without the fun! No wonder that woman ran away from her child, she's probably saddled with the same sick genes.

That said, this is perhaps the cutest anime, or visal production at all, I have ever seen. The love between Kippei and Yuzuyu is like a piece of Heaven. They are so sweet! And the drawing style fits totally in its over the top cuteness. If I had been able to take screenshots, I would have used them as wallpaper.

what 12 year old? if you mean kippei's other sibling...it's a he ^_^;

She's a he? Well, then he does act more mature than expected! Perhaps he'll grow up to be a nice and pretty boy like Kippei.

Unfortunately, series like this with absolutely no blood and guts, no big explosions, no action, no boobs and no sex, rarely, if ever, get licensed.

Hopefully I'm wrong though and if I am, I'll right there in line with you to buy it when it comes out

[Meier]

Generally speaking I loathe series of this nature but I've fallen in love with this one. It's an absolute joy and afk is doing a fantastic job on it. It's a shame there is no episode this week; I cant wait to see the next one!

[Budweineken]

I wasnt thinking of watching this, but I'm glad i did, I just like the fact that not everything is happy and cutesy... i think that the bitch girl made this series more worth seeing...

one question.... is the artist from this series the same as One Piece? the drawing style look familiar... especially the skinny bodies and the facial looks and expressions

[Meier]

Heh, nope -- Eiichiro Oda has only done shonen series and considering how insanely rich he has become from OP, I'd imagine if he did more manga it'd follow suit The art in AiBaby basically looks exactly like every other series that comes from Ribon.

[Budweineken]

Oh I see... I'm just not very familiar with production and artist groups and such... maybe because I never bother to look into who is making the series that I watch... I have to keep in mind to do so in the future... ignorance sucks

[frowndog]

The art style actually looks very similar to Ultra Maniac both from Animax so it could be because of the animation company although they both are serialized in Shueisha Ribon

No episode this week???

[Budweineken]

If not mistaken... i think it didnt air this week... probably someone mentioned it earlier

[oDin01]

You mean I have to wait 1 more week for a new episode of Aishiteruze Baby.

[frowndog]

I'm actually looking forward more to an ep of Aishiteruze Baby than... oh, I don't know, Naruto or something. Bummer that it's not showing this week

Oh well, no one ever said that anticipation was a bad thing. All the more time to enjoy the goodness of Aishiteruze Baby.

I really hope it passes 26 episodes

[SADleem]

i hope they show more of this anime. it's pretty kewl and Yuzuyu is uber cute ^_^

can't wait for more

And yet Koi Kaze does... wtf?

[NoSanninWa]

Koi Kaze has Geneon USA in the credits... I wonder if it will be the exception to that rule...

I disagree. I can't think of any shoujo series coming out in the last 5 years or more which didn't get licensed except Marimite (and if that series gets licensed it might not be until the fall season gets underway).

I can name a couple of shows but they aren't shoujo and they are all probably 5 years old or older.

Does it have that much manga? I really don't want them to just make stuff up ala Ultra Maniac...

[The Undertaker]

Well Full Moon wo Sagashite turned out good, and it went all the way to 52 episodes. Hopefully Aishiteruze can turn out to be just as good or better.

Well I saw the manga is up to Volume 5, how many chapters is that? Is it ending soon?

I think it has enough content for 26 'filler-less' episodes. I hope Yuzuyu will stop crying and whining 'every episode' though.
