This is a fabulous anime! This show is unlike anything out there and rivals the Miyazaki movies. Full of heart, innocence, and simplly adorable, this serise follow a young girl, Yurie, and her friends in a small Japanese town near the coast in the 1980's. One day Yurie discovers she has been bestowed with powers and made into a Kami (god). The title Kamichu is roughly translated into, "God is a middle school student," and is very adorable. Even if cute isn't your thing, this is an anime for everyone. The animation is fabulous! The way the girls move and act in their enviorment isso realistic, it's what makes this serise so special! The combination of realistic animation and unrealitic story concepts makes this seirse a must see for any and all Otakus and non-Otakus.
