Movie Reviews of Please Twins!: Anime Legends Complete Collection
Movie Review: Creepy and monotonous
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought the Please Teacher series on a whim because I kind of enjoy eccentric anime romance comedies. I lucked out and really enjoyed that series. Having enjoyed it so much I decided to take another chance with Please Twins. This series is not as good.
The main plot is kind of interesting and the characters are well fleshed out. You do get to see characters from Please Teacher a fair bit which is nice. It also takes place in the same town, which in some ways is my favorite "character".
My main problem with the show was the gratuitous amount of footage of the two young girls naked. Now, a lot of people will argue that this is acceptable in Japanese culture, if not normal. Perhaps it is. But know that almost if not every episode includes lots of footage of the two main girls conversing together who are underage if not prepubescent completely nude in a bathing situation. Some situations including sexual references for humor's sake. While in no way would I call this pornography or even child pornography, I am not a lawyer and do not know where the line is drawn. I can see how in a legal situation someone in the United States could argue it as such. Just a fair warning. Beyond that, I am a 31 year old male with a pretty open mind but I felt very uncomfortable watching the show.
Beyond the repetitive bathing scenes there is a lot of other repetition. You get to hear the main characters say that "they might be relatives, but they might not" about three times and episode, which gets old (yeah, we get it). Overall, the show is nothing special except perhaps for its creepy shock value. It certainly ended with me not wanting more.

I liked this dvd cause it is about a boy becoming a man. Then he finds that he has two sisters, but in reality he has only one and the other has a crush on him. It also states that someone shouldn't judge people by what they look like, but for what is inside of them that counts.Movie Review: Great series

This was a great drama romance and comedy i really enjoyed every second of it. It starts with three siblings that did'nt no eachother that well then they started living with eachother and got to no more about their childhood and how they were seperated, then they started to remember their past and they were family this was a great show a nice feeling to it.Movie Review: Warm Fuzzies all over this...

Everyone else here has referenced "Please Teacher!" I loved it too, so that is all I will say on that.
This anime is a really artistic way of saying home is where you choose to make it. It is a wonderful anime that speaks volumes of teenage angst, wanting to belong, and what it takes to make a true home for yourself in the world.
I think the last episode (kinda like a hidden music track on a CD) was a really nice surprise. The second to the last episode is announced as the "last episode". Then the credits roll and there is a VERY risque "final episode" after the "last episode" which is very enjoyable both in humor and suggestive content.
There is a lot of fan service in this but it is actually tastefully done. My delicate sensibilities weren't offended and I thought it was almost a sincere act of moving the story along (almost).
This is funny material too. Especially when you put yourself in the position of our hero. He is a young man trying to make it on his own steam and not one, but two hotties enter his life. The sudden nose bleeds are timed well and laugh out loud funny.
There are plenty of unexpected twists that keep the content interesting even when the initial excitement of the opening episodes wears off.
This is worth your money if you enjoyed that time in your life when you were anxious to get closer to someone in your life but were scared to. Almost like a drawn out dating experience... you want it... but aren't sure you can have it... so you're patient but anxious all at the same time... It is a great cocktail of emotions that get drawn from you watching this one.
Good stuff, pick it up, you won't be disappointed.

This title is a great follow up to the hit series Please Teacher. It is not a direct sequel for the series (at least not for the main characters) but they do make cameo appearances in Twins as Ms. Kazamai is the teacher for Mike Kamishiro. The story follows Mike as he struggles to lead a normal life with two girls claiming to be his long lost twin sister. They both have possible proof of their blood relationship to Mike but as all three of them are orphans who have no clue who their parents are they have no real proof. The comedy is continuous with a serious story to boot. I highly recommend this title. But it is necessary to know the background of please teacher to understand some of the details of this series. If you have not seen Please Teacher then several things may not make since but the series does hold it's own
