It wasn't what I expected. I was thinking, "OK, sequel, good, more M&K, or at least more aliens." I was kinda bummed when Karen, Mina, and Maiku turned out to be human. And what was with the whole town knowing of Marie?!? If some little creature in footie pajamas and an innertube came floating up to me, I would run like hell. And why in the heazy didn't they find out about their mom? What was that?
Summary: the only redeeming factor aobut this series was the predictable, yet funny, ecchi moments. |

As a crazed fan of both Teacher and Twins, I think Teacher was a better piece. At least in Teacher, they give nearly everyone some degree of serious character development. In Twins, I really don't like how Matagu is demoted to something so worthless as that, and as for the interesting new addition of his sister, she's also completely ignored. The show's focus around the twins and Maiku, in my opinion, didn't really work either. All we get is a whiny repetition of "We might be related ... we might not be related", followed by a discovery that

So, both Onegai Teacher and Onegai Twins weren't truly brilliant pieces, but Teacher was a bit better done. On an unrelated note, however, I like the music better in Twins. |

I could've sworn that at the end of episode 12 it was mentioned that Maiku, Miina, and Karen are actually triplets. The whole deal about the picture... how the 2 pictured were actually Maiku and Miina while Karen was inside the house taking a nap.

Maiku and Karen are twins. Miina lived with them back when they were children but is not related to them. So in that picture it's actually Maiku and Miina (since they were "childhood friends"), and Karen was taking a nap.

It was a decent anime.
Not deserving to be under the Onegai title. In other words, If it were NOT the successor to Onegai Teacher, It would have been a good anime. Because it is the successor to ONegai Teacher, more was expected, and less was delievered. meaning T3H SU/< |

And also, as an aside, one day I hope to figure out why so many people misunderstood the ending to Twins. Did it all happen too fast or something? When people read subs, do they only read every other line? If they misunderstand something, don't they go back and watch it again? It's honestly a real mystery to me... |

It is the sucessor. The successor is mearly the next thing to carry on a given name. Onegai Twins is the successor to Onegai Teacher because it was the next in the line of the Please! project. Making it the successor. There in, if it was an independant anime. It would have been half-decent. however, Because it was the successor [ The next in the series ] of Onegai Teacher, It was bad. Why was it bad? Because there are certain ideals, and a certain level of story expected from such a series. And, IMHO, Onegai Twins did not live up to those ideals and story level. |

I had a long post describing it in a way that you should understand, but the site had a orgasm and messed up, loosing my post. So I'll just say this. Successor is simply the one that carries on the name. Your child is your Successor. Pentium 4 is the successor to Pentium 3. Onegai Twins is the successor of Onegai Teacher. |
