Imagine you lived in total isolation in a bomb shelter from other human beings for most of your life. Then you see a girl you like and end up leaving to join the rest of society for her. Are you going to be able to recognize subtle unspoken social nuances and gradually get to know this girl, build a relationship with her and others you've not before had the opportunity to interact with? Or are you inevitably going to mess it up a person who never grew up learning complex social rules that others take for granted? The latter of course, and that's both thecomedy and the tragedy of this series. Add not just the fact of personal isolation, but also that our main character Techno is a super genius with access to weapons of mass destruction, and you get a very dark comedy here.

So if you like dark comedy with zany anime antics, which I do, this is a series to watch for sure. I was somewhere in-between gawking and laughing out loud at how inappropriate Techno was for much of the series. It's not without its weaknesses though. I think the series may have been stronger if it focused not just on Techno and his love interest Hitomi, who he nicknames "Daisy" like in the title, but how he interacts with others when going out into the world. I really don't think he got called on his behavior often enough. Hitomi seems to be the only one who will say anything more often than not. He's very mean to Yamakawa X, his classmate who tries to show himself as a tough rebel but is ultimately an insecure character ignored by his peers. X is another appealing part of the series for me, but he didn't end up getting his own character arc.

The romance itself is not very strong, so I wouldn't watch it for that. Instead, laugh or cry at the suffering and antics of Techno and anyone who has the misfortune to come across him.
