This is a story about aliens. Yes, aliens. Choi Sera houses displaced aliens in her home, where they all pretend to be UFO fanatics in order to explain their eccentricities. Sera’s job is to teach these aliens how to live in human society—not that difficult on the surface, as they ostensibly look like humans (except for the three fingers on each hand thing). They look normal, and they can communicate with earthlings via a translator that looks like a hearing aid, but can they act normal?
The answer to that is a resounding no. Watch as Sera tries to school the emotionless twins, Seunghyun and Seungmin (really clones) on dating (with disasterous results), tries to keep Hyunwoo out of trouble, and keep them all from being taken away by the UN alien hunter who’s on to them. And what happens when a translator breaks?! Find out in Safe Again Today!
Alice Sakaguchi has recently moved to Tokyo from her country home in Hokkaido... and she absolutely hates it. The air is polluted, there are far fewer of her beloved plants in the city than she would prefer, she can't seem to make friends at her new high school, and her seven-year old neighbor, Rin, is constantly bullying her. One day, Alice takes Rin to the zoo, where, as usual, the animals crowd around Alice when she gets near, and it seems that she can feel their thoughts. At the zoo, she runs into two of her male classmates, who she thought she had seen having a rather... intimate... moment a few days before. They tell her that they have been having the same dreams since junior high, extremely vivid dreams in which they are scientists observing the earth from a base on the moon with five others. Alice is fascinated by this and wants to know more. When she has one of these dreams herself, however, and the three of them start searching for the other four scientists, one of which turns out to be Rin, Alice's world begins to change drastically, and perhaps not for the better.
