The story is set at the Hoshinoumi Academy and follows members of the student council as they help other students with problems arising from their abilities. Yū Otosaka uses his power without others knowing, and lives a fairly normal, average school life. However, after he meets a mysterious girl named Nao Tomori, the fate of special power-users will be exposed.

The premise is cool -- superpowers are made more interesting by their limitations, and these have fantastic narrative potential. Unfortunately, the characters are nothing special and the story is just lame.

Jason

As another Key Visual Arts TV series written by Jun Maeda expect the tears to start flowing some time. In comparison to Key's other recent works Charlotte's premier didn't feel quite as snappy as Angel Beats (which was also animated by P. A. Works) but so far is probably better directed and animated than Little Busters was (which was done by J. C. Staff in a half-assed manner instead). Whether or not Charlotte will suffer from the same executive meddling that cut Angel Beats from a 26 planned episode series to a 13 episode run remains to be seen.
