Product Description
Tomoki’s life was normal until a wish-granting angelic android named Ikaros fell from the sky and started calling him master! Of course, thanks to his raging teenage hormones, most of Tomoki’s wishes have something to do with panties. And that makes things pretty complicated, because one simple wish can lead to a rampaging robot made out of frilly undergarments. One tiny wish can turn bloomers into bombs capable of blowing up entire neighborhoods! If Tomoki doesn’t learn to control his impulses around Ikaros, and be more careful with his wishes, the chaos will only get crazier. Luckily, even with such a dirty mind, Tomoki’s heart is in the right place. His hands, however, are a completely different story.
The Limited Edition version comes in a collectible, rigid art box.

Based on the manga by Suu Minazuki, Heaven's Lost Property (2009) is another example of the nerd-meets-submissive-beauty genre, in the tradition of Chobits and Steel Angel Kurumi. Teenage Tomoki, who lives alone in rural Japan while his parents are away, insists "there's nothing like peace and quiet." He loses any hope of either when an explosion brings down beautiful, scantily clad Ikaros, who announces she's a "Pet-Class Angeloid." Tomoki is now her master, and she lives only to fulfill his desires. The presence of the buxom Ikaros gets Tomoki in trouble with his best friend and next-door neighbor Sohara. Nymph, a second Angeloid, arrives and reveals that Ikaros is really Uranus Queen, a terrible warrior, like Kurumi. Numerous contretemps ensue before things get sorted out more or less satisfactorily. Unfortunately, Tomoki comes across as a much less sympathetic character than Tenchi or Keitaro in Love, Hina: he's a lecher, a peeping tom, a slacker, and a fussbudget, and giving him occasional lines about friendship doesn't make up for his loutish behavior. But the series draws viewers for its many jiggle shots and panty jokes, rather than nuanced characters or plot subtleties. The popularity of Heaven's Lost Property and the related second TV series, OAV, and theatrical feature suggests that there's a large audience of lonely, hormonal adolescents eager to indulge their fantasies. (Rated TV MA: risqué humor, toilet humor, nudity, violence, violence against women) --Charles Solomon

This being another fantasy ecchi harem comedy, it has all of that & then some. But this show really had me laughing. And there is an intersting mystery going on with some darker ominous undertones, creating some legitimate tension making you want to see the next episode. The angeloid characters are all well done characters with distinct different personalities & motivations. Our mian protaganist who ends up having to look after the angeloids, is an idiot. But one of the better idiots I have seen in these kinds of comedys, and well done character. It could be easy to dismiss a show like this as more fan service cheeasiness, but I think it does have some genuinely funny stuff going on throughout most of the show. The end credit animation & songs being different for each episode (and quite funny & clever) add a nice touch. 19 of 24 people found the following review helpful: Great Anime but misleading Title, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Heaven's Lost Property: Complete Series (Limited Edition Blu-ray/DVD Combo) (Blu-ray) This is indeed a great anime, but the title is a little misleading as in this is only the first season and not the second one. So calling it the "Complete series" is misleading to me. 11 of 16 people found the following review helpful: Heavens Lost Property, This review is from: Heaven's Lost Property: Complete Series (Limited Edition Blu-ray/DVD Combo) (Blu-ray) OK, so to start this off the name of the manga that this is based on and also the name of the japanese version is "Sora no Otoshimono". The main characteristic of the manga, as can be seen from the cover itself, is fan service, i mean there's a whole episode centering around panties. But don't let that deter you if you're not into that stuff. The manga is riddled with many hilarious scenes, and is a guaranteed good time. It also manages to incorporate a couple of touching and emotional episodes. Overall i give this manga a 5/5 and recommend it to everyone i know. I hope that the english release of this anime will live up to the expectations the manga itself has set for me. |
