Coming of Age: (
Story/Location) A story in which the main character is confronted with issues related to their transition from adolescence (innocence) to adulthood (responsibility). Most typically found in a modern romance story in which the main character has to confront his/her feelings over their (first) love and/or deciding about the path in life (setting goals, attending college, getting a job etc.).
Fragmentary: (
Style) The anime has either been aborted somewhere in the middle (not even ending with a milestone of the story) or consists of a random selection of only loosely related parts of the original story, leaving most of the important questions and character relations unresolved. If you want to know what's actually going on here you might be forced to resort to secondary media such as game or manga. The purpose of this category is to warn the audience about a potentially unsatisfying ending without giving too many details away.

For the new year in elementary school #9 the responsibilities are assigned, like class representatives, homeroom duties, feeding the class animals - and membership in the anti alien squad who put an alien symbiont on their head like a hat and then catch those aliens that are occasionally landing on earth before they can do any damage. Energetic Toomine Kasumi and serious Kawamura Kumi volunteered for this task while timid Ootani Yuri was elected for this squad by her class, much against her will. And facing these monsters, defending her classmates and even feeding the symbiont with her body (who gives her protection in return) takes a heavy toll on this girl.
